THE CARE OF THE HAIR. Some forty years ago there was introduced a preparatin called "Baluiof Columbia," which, when used according to the directions, produced remarkable results in preventing the hair from falling off, and even in causing a new crop to grow. Certificates might have been obtained frotn several cxcelleut and eminent pcrsous who, within the writer's knowledge, used this "Balm" with good results, had not the maker lived in England. The directions were essentially these : Before goiug to bed, rub the scalp with a stiff brush for (wc think it was) tcu minutes, apply the "Balm," rub setne more minutes and go to bed. The wholi efficacy of the "Balm,, was due to the tcu minutes scrub bing of the scalp before it was applied. If the stuff had been water, though it was no doubt some soothing application, it rould, with all-this rubbm" hnvr> ilnn<i cnm/i .......i OJ - ? i,VUU. It will be found that most of the applications for preventing baldness and encouraging the growth of the hair depcud upon either a vigorous rubbing of the scalp, or they aro preparations which arc to be Grst rubbed well into the hair and then washed out, thus securing the cleanliness so essential to a healthy cruditiou. Let any oue with naturally dry hair try a persistent brushing with a stiff brush, or the use of a fine-toothed couib for sonic minutes, aud unless there is some disease of the scalp, the hair will become surprisingly moist.? Of course those who curl aud crimp their hair by the use of heated irons, must expect it to become injured, and no help can be looked for so long as the practice is followed. With others, and in many cases, baldness iu comparative youth isjhereditary, aud in such cases it is doubtful if any treatment cau be of use. Where the hair has fallen on accouut of severe illucss or from , other temporary cause, some gentle stiuiu- ' lant to the scalp may promote or hasten the ( growth. One of the most useful preparations of this kiud is half an ounce of the Tincture of Cuntharides (kept by the druggists) to a qtturt bottle of Bay Hum, using this upou the scalp with gcutle rubbing on goiug lo bed. When the barber kindly informs his patient that his hair is very badly filled with dandruff, and proposes to shampoo it as a remedy, it is safe to say. "No" most positively ; the majority of barbers use as a shampooing liquid, either a solution of "Salts of Tartar" alone, or mixed with llorax. They are probably not aware that "Sales of Tartar" is but a name for purified Potash. When a solution of this is put upon the head it combines with the natural oil of the hair and scalp, and forms a soap which makes a dense lather in the hair ; this is washed out, and while it effectually removes the dandruff and dust, it has also removed the oil which is needed to keep the hair in a healthy couditiou. Avoid all such shampooing. A teaspoouful of powdered liorax in J[a quart of water form a safe shampooing liquid, but still better is the yolk of an egg, worked thoroughly into the hair, applying a little at a time, and then i washing it out. The egg will leave the hair ! surprisingly clean aud the scalp soft and I freo from dandruff.?Am/rran Agriculturist. The Poultry Yard.?Now is the proper timo to feed with stimulating food to force egg production, in order to have a few hens or pullets ready to sit to get early chicks.? The earlier chicks can be got out, the more eggs will be had the next winter. Meat scraps, bones, and table refuse of all kinds, with an occasional drink of warm milk, and the food well seasoned twice a week with red pepper, not forgetting a liberal supply of gr.'en food, if the birds are warmly housed, will cause them lo lay liberally in spite of Jack Frost. Stormy days and odd times may be filled in by repairing the chicken coops and building new ones.? ('lean them up. whitewash them and place away in a dry place. If you are fortunate enough to get out a brood in February, don't think it willjbe too cold to raise them; place your coop 011 tho south side of the manure heap and bank it up around all sides except the south and you will be as ioiiisiicu 10 see now mey will inrive.? Nights cover up tlio front with an old carpet. Don't give any water to drink until the chicks are -it least three weeks old, as it 1 gives them diarrhea, and the feathers be- 1 couio clogged in the rear and chicks drop rapidly off. The mixed food heretofore re- 1 commended in the American Farmer furnishes all the moisture the chicks need.? Put the eggs away for hutching with the big end down and where they will not be- ' co in? chilled by frost. Mrs. Ilari'ict Jtoccher Stowe writes from < her winter home at Mandarin, Fla., that the hard frost of the night and morning of the ?10th of December caused a loss of all her ' oranges?about 100,000 of thcrn. The ' fruit lios in heaps on the ground. '-Klin, is your father at hoinc ? said a j bashful lover to his sweetheart. "I want to propose something very important to him."

Journal says : Mr. Ira Croft, of this County, was a gallant Confederate soldier during the late war, and during the seven days' light arouud Richmoi d, Ya., in the mouth of July, 1802, he receiveu a acvcro wound, a mis->wo striking liitji 011 the left check, just under the eye, shattering the bones and lacerating the flesh terribly. It was not considered possible for recovery to take place. The doctors were unable to Gnd the missile, and gave it as their opinion that it was a piece of shell, aud had passed out. Mr. Croft did rcovcr, however, the wound healed up, leaving an honorable scar on his check, like the one that scars the cheek of the noble and brave General John 13. Gordon. The war over, Mr. Croft returned to the peaceful avocation of the farm. Ho has experienced no pain from the wound during the many years since it was inflicted. A few days ago Mr. Croft's throat became painfully sore, and he was almost uuable to swallow anything. His throat was doctored and everything done to afford relief. On Monday night last Mr. Croft felt something in his throat which he tried to eject, and in one of his efforts he spit up au ounce minuie ball, evidently the ono that eighteen years ago mado such a fearful wound on hi? check. This is a wonderful and remarkable occurrence, find wc give it because it is true. ? - ? A man named Sterling was hanged in Voungstown, Ohio, in 1877, for the murler of a young girl, lie was convicted on die evidence of a huckster, who a few days igo on his deathbed, confessed that he was :he murderer. Engineer Williams, while alono on his locomotive ou a Virginia railroad, recently felt an attack Qf heart discaso coming, but ocforc dying Was able to whistlo down arakes and close the throttle, thus averting k disaster. Extract from a letter from Angelina : 'Dear Henry, you ask if I return your love. Ves, Henry, I have no use for it, and return it with tunny thanks. Hy*by, llcnry." *? # s, Tiib Death ok CaluoumY?Ao uupublishtd letter from It. M. T. Hauler, a Virginia souutor, says : Mr. Calhoun's death was emiucutly simple, calm u?d unaffected ?do display or pr>. tcusion, not? ng fur stage effect. He knew that his mortal sickness was upon him, but ho did uot\c|pect to die so soou. The evening before hik death ho had his mail rend to him, couuucVed upon some of the letters, aud directed his son to. clear up his tablo, as was his vf?t every uight. Iu the night when ho Vund ho was dying, he directed his son tyRfnck up his papers and watch, ^uud to giv*' his pencil to his son Andrew. When speech left him he still showed consciousness by signs; and beckoning to his sou, squeezed his hand and expired, without four. He had always said to me previously, aud to others through his sickness, that he had no apprehensions of death; that it was an event iu relation to which ho folt that he had no right to entertain a wish. He was a man of Jfow quotations, but one which "no ol'teu used to me was that there was "the same Providence ou the fatal as the natal hour." He ivu9 uut uuu&uuuu us iu uis uirui, nur uiu nu believe that his wishes ought to weigh or even exist as to his death ; such I suppose to have been his meaning. Ho had a greater faith iu his abstractions, one and all, than any other man I ever saw, aud this was his abstraction (as 1 think) about death.? "Uut," Mr. Hunter, went on to say, "you must not whisper it to auy one; I believe that he died under the firm impression that the South was 'betrayed* and gono. Indeed, he told mo it was 'betrayed' the last time 1 ever saw him. Do not mention this, however. Oue of the last things hoover said to Judge Duller was,Dou't despond. Judge; ucvcl despond !' And if wo mean to fight the battle wc must not despond; or, if we do, wc must not let the people seo it until all is manifestly useless. Clay's course aud Foote's eternal talk about compromise have done more to let down the touo of Southern feeling than everything else put together. Had Clay not taken the course he did aud had Foote and every Southern uiau for borue to press compromises on thoso who talked cf nothing of the sort themselves, wc might have gotten, I think, a fair compromise, say the line of 3G.30 through to the Pacific, with a recognition of slavery South of that line. Such, at least, is my opinion. Duchauan would have been willing to agree to this, I believe, and I think I know others iu the North who would have agreed to the same. The North yould not have severed the Union sooner Ujan submi*. to such a proposition." 3Tr!Calhoun's death elicited glowing eulogies iu both houses of Congress, but the most improssive 4|. 4 .! II /II IV t .1 * was mac 01 iienry v>iay. i'jViucniiy sianiling on the brink of bis own grave, ho went on to say : "I was his senior, Mr. President, in years?in nothing else. According to the course of nature, 1 ought to have preceded hiui. It has bccu decreed otherwise ; but 1 know that I shall liuger here a short time, and shall soon follow him." Ouit Hidden Life.?There is much in the past lives of all of us that wc would cover with the mantle of charity, something that we would not reveal, and woul 1 perhaps desire to blot from memory and from sight ; some folded page or turned down leaf in our life-book, which we would gladly revise and correct. But wc caunot reverse the wheels of time, or change or improve the misdeeds of the past that are now absorbed in eternity and become a part of tTitPTeeord which shall be revealed as it is, wheu the books shall be opened and the secrets of our bidden lives shall be divulged. We tind here and there a word,a thought, a deed, revealed by the waniug light of retrospectiou, but we turned aside hopeful of I oblivion, closed the book and laid it by with I Mil i ml i fVoriwit nir mk if iv.? ?ti?l ii.it o-n-n l...? we did, and felt the sharp pang of remorse. I Tho lettered page and the folded leal weie hid away I'roui sight, yet we could uot bar the gale ol memory or stop the wheels of thought, and the ghosts of murdered hours a.id forbidden deeds would haunt our dreams at the midnight hour, aud iu our troubled, wakeful sleep, iu yield tug to tho roproots aud entreaties of "the still frmall voioe," wo would murmur a prayer fur forgiveness which we had stiDed aud suppressed iu our waking hours. If we could turn baek the pages of the sealed book, how many careless, thoughtless deeds would WO find there recorded that we would gladly erase with contri ion, or blot out with pcui'Gfitinl tears! Some bitter word, some sharp reply that might have pained and wouuded the sensitive nature of some friend or rclativo, and the scars of which the sunshine and the rain of after years could n tver fully cfluco. IIow pain ! ful it must be to stand at the grave of one we have wronged, or even pained by across or careless word, and gaze upon the pale face over which the cold earth must soon close forever, aud see the white hand crossed over a pulseless breast, and feci that it is too late to ask forgiveness ? The wife, the child, or some dear friend that sits with -us by the evening fire or in tho social family circle, uiny have a heart-* sorrow they caiiuot tell, a leaf turned down iu the record of lifo, a secret something in their history which they alone may bear, and none can help. There may be aflutter of the pulse, a moisture iu tho eye, a shadow on the brow, which nro tho dumb heralds, the silent messengers that tell of the uuwritten sorrows of their heart history, which is all the hcuvicr because tlicy must hear it iu silence aud alone. The irhosts of those wo have wron<*?il o - -O may come back from the spirit lnrnl on the arrowy beams of the twilight hour, like shadows on the wall, or birds of evil omen, and intrude their spectre forms between us and life, nnd happiness and home. The whispered words may come at retrospection's silent hour, and bid us reviuw our life lesson, all blurred and blotted though it be with sin, and shame, and tears. Let no human hand turn back tho folded leaf, or read ! the dark record ; 'tis mine, and mine alone ; the joy, the hope, the sorrow. 'Tisouly read by 11 iui to whom the secrets <>f all hearts arc known, and as Ho ulono can lighten the burden and give relief, lot no other eye Bean the page; let no other car hour the sad tale. ? Yeomen. ^ Wholesale Siiootinu.?A private dispatch received from Augusta, Ark., report* that a feud which originated five years ago bctwc.n a number of whites and uogrocs in what is known as White Church settlement, about nine miles north of the town, culminated last night in a series of startling assassinations. In iho morning a row occurred at Supp's store, resulting iu the wcuuaing ot two negroes and three while men. During the uight Alfred Wright, colored, who had becu a participant iu the row, was iired ou while seated before the Gre iu his cabin. Grasping a revolver, ho ran into the yard and discovcd twe men iu the rear of the house. An exciting duel ensued, several shots being rapidly exchanged. Wright fell on the grouud after Bring twice, imrtally wounded. The nssassins escaped, disappearing in the adjacent woods. Shortly after four negroes visited the house of a wealthy planter named Charles Johusou. llo was sitting by the Gro reading a paper whan they poured a volley into the room, aiming at him. Crying '*1 aui killed I" he fell ou the Goor, blood streaming from numerous wounds in various parts of his body. His wife's screams aroused the household, and two men were sunt for a doetor. As they were returning with the physician, and when they had reached and were passing along a strip of bottom iutcrspeised with rocks and trees, through which iho road wouud its course, a sudden attack was made on theui by parlies in ambush.? .Putting spurs to their horses they succeedin escaping ; but all were wounded aud two ui liuied for life, one man's baud and another's? arm being horribly mangled. Tho physician, Dr. E. Dale, well known aud highly respected, is thought to havo been uiortilly wounded. Goorge Pcnn, a school teacher, was reported killed. lie lived some uiiles beyond Johusou's plantation, and it is sup posed the same person who attacked Johnson also assassinated him. The excitement is intense in the ncighborho id, and tho general belief is that the curinin has not yetfallen ou the last act of the bloody drama. * . Sweaty Feet.?It is sometimes the case that the feet sweat so profusely that itamounts to a disease, and the exuded matter soon becomes offensive. Noticing iu a recout medical journal that Dr. G. Thin, of London, had proposed a remedy, wo advised a friend who was badly troubled with his feet to try it. The result was so satisfactory at once that we think proper to make known the remedy, as it may relieve others from the aunoying aflliction. The treatment is merely to soak the feet of the socks for a few hours iu a saturated solution of Boracic Acid, dry tlicm, and they are ready to put on again ; the change is made twice daily. It iu also-advised to use cork iu soles, which inilaily-foakcd and dried and changed with the soeks. Boracic Acid, the acid of Borax (in which it iscouibiucd with Soda) is not very soluble; an ounce in a quart of water will make a solution near enough to saturation. The acid is a natural product, and uot very expensive ; it is kept iu the drug stores iu large cities, and others cau easily procure it. The autiseptic or preservative powers of this acid are very mark cd, aud its application is rapidly extending. ?Am. Agriculturist. The Acme ok a Delicacy.?A gentleman travelling iu Virginia last summer had occasion to take a stage ride in order to visit the natural bridge. Hiding on tho seat with tho driver he fell iu conversation with him, and found that he was an old hunter, who was a veteran in killing doer, bears aud smaller gauie. Passing a stream the traveller inquired it it contained fish. "Lots of 'em," was the reply. "What kind?" "Mostly trout," said the driver. "All these mountain streams are full of t:out." "They must be fine eating," was the next remark. "Pine catiu' !" exclaimed the driver.?
