Of -his number the B.-ilish X't.-Ji "Vine ican Provinces have fit nish ed 40,'10", of which 22,720 we.e men, and ]7,031! women. It is difficult to account for this large immigration across the St.

From China the immigration has been less than was expected, being only 15,740, of which number only 1,11(5 were women.

A CORRESPONDENT of the Washing'on Chronicle who has taken a sir'vey of the Congressional field in Pennsylvania concludes that the g'eat expec'ations of( Democratic gains in that State, announc-1 ed in the Democratic journals a few weeks ago, will not be realized. He says he is satisfied that we shall not lose a sin gle Republican district, notwithstanding the close Republican vo.e by which several of these districts are usually carried, and the temporary disaffection which has manifested i:self in one or two others. The First District, now represented by RANDALL, IS strongly Democratic. In the Second, Hon. C'LAS.O'NEILL, Republican, has to contend against a bolt, but hi* elec.ion is claimed, nevertheless. MvEKS, Republican, will be rc-elected in the Tlii.d. In the Fo.irJi, this co.-i espondent savs, "the efib .0 bieak the Hon. \V»Li. AM D.

He will undoubtedly be re-elec.ed.

Tlio Horrible (\'iigno:i.

From Ao Philadelphia Po.s..] The time when chignons will go oat of fashion might be called a hairy millennium. The other day we saw a wonder —a young lady who wo. her own hair only. There was not much of it. but how beautiful and natural it looked, and how different from those monstrous and abominable bags of jute, those impossible switches, those bunches of tangled wool, which now disfigure nearly every woman in the city. To look at .hese gigan ic deformities, which do not even p.e.end to be natural, is to think of perspirai ion, trichina1, rope-yards, dirt, and detestable tas'e, They disfigure the entire head of the prettiest of young ladies.

Sometimes the vanity of the wearer leads to amusing results. We iccen.lv saw a lady whose "luaid" or \Yom" had been disarranged by the wind, and displayed a foreheadjas bald as Bismarck's, while behind her luxuriant tresses were bound up in a bundle like a coffee bag. It is getting to be common to see decided differences in the color of the real and the false hair.

But our ladies da not seem to mind these absurdities. They have ceased to pretend that the chignons are but the natural locks of their pretty little heads, and openly discuss the price of hemp and wool. We wish oven those who buy real hair, cut from the dead or bought Irom the living, would rellect upon the words of a clergyman, who asked one of his fair and fashionable sheep if she had ever thought that she might be wearing ihe hair of a woman whose soul might be in purgatory?

The question was severe, but suggestive. It would not, however, apply to the majority of American women they do not wear natural hair, and are obliged to stick on the back of their heads substances done lip in nets, that resemble hair about as much as a scrubbing-brush does. The time may come when American women will not sacrifice beauty, taste, and what may be called honesty of personal appearance, to the tvrranny of a barbarian and ugly fashion. But it will never come till they have as much regard for the inside of their precious heads as thev now have for the outside.

WAR MEW'S BY HAH'-'1

JVOT ES

A Circle of Dehiched Fori.*.

The Pall Mall zcile says modern warfare h».s shown in more than one instance the value of in11 enchcd camps, formed by a ci.cle of detached fo. ts, wi.lithe main fortress for its nucleus. Mantua, by its position, was an intrenched camp, so was Danlzic, more or le-s, in 1S07, and these two were the only fortresses which ever arrested Napoleon I. Again, in 1813, Dantzic was enabled by its detached fo 1:s —field wo. ks for the most part—.0 offer a prolonged re Stance The whole of Radet/.ky's campaign in 1819 in Lombardy hinged on the intrenched camp of Verona, itself the nucleus of .lie celebrated Quad, ilateral so did the whole the Crimean war depend on the inlienchcd camp of Sebastopol, which held out so long merely bccause the allies we. unable to invest it 011 all side-, and cut oil supplies and

THE I'RINCE IMPERIAL.

Writing of the Prince Imperial, the London correspondent of the SeoUuian says: "Three or foar yea 's ago he was in a "ve-y delicate condi.ion. A disease of the ankle bone and o.lier rathe alarming svmptoins appeared. 1 saw him almost dailv at Biarri.z at this time, and when he was playing with yoang Conneao on the terrace "of the chateau, it was easy to see how he limped, and when he went out ituo the town lie always ode in a carriage, even when the Emperor and Eui press were on foot. The g. eat physical fatigue and anxiety to which the poor boy has of late been subject have produced some indications of a recurrence ot the old disorder, and hence the vi-it to Hastings."

TIIE FALLEN EMPEROR.

The London Post contends that the Impe. ial family of Fiauce has at this moment a title of 110 common kind to I lie good wishes and friendly estimation of English men. That the Emperor, in gove ning a

most

impracticable and impulsive people may have committed some grave mistakes, is not denied bat who that remembers the France of lS-!8 and coir pares with Ihe F.aace of the early part of 1870, cannot see the enormous strides in na tional prosperity which, under the rule of Napoleon III., theEmpi has made? And if now his sun has gone down in cloud and storm, it is mo.e owing to the force of circumstances than to any inherent defec's in his own di-charge of his exalted office.

TOO MANY PRISONERS.

The Pall Mall Gczctic savs the Prussians must be beginning to feel rather f.ncomfo \able al the number of encli p. isoners I hey have 01 iheir hands. To say nothing of the troableof guarding them, the :pense of feeding them must add considerably to the cost of the war. If the French really wi-died to annoy their invaders to the inmost deg ee, they perhaps could not put .hem in a more embarrn-sing condition than !v fonnin army after army and capitula^ ing as fast as they fo'-med. There ought not to be much difficulty in currying 011 !iis plan. Very little training

The Pall Mall Gu.c'dc remarks: "No one can help being struck wi.h ,he youthful ami undeveloped appearance of the regulars and the unwieldy elements of which many battalions of the French National Guard are composed. Some of the respectable bat.alions ma-ch and look well enough on pa-ade, but the battalions just organised, and taken oin quarters of the town notoriously disaffec ed to therecent gove nment, a li..le more than a rabble. It is curious to sc

a gate of the

Tuillerii'-guarded by a voltigeur of the guard on one side, and an armed citizen in a blouse on the other. Whatever the late Imperial Guard may inwardly think, it has followed the popular movement, and offered up eagles on tiie altar of freedom."

The Ba' on Hen Von M.ilizan. the ucll known African travelc, writes from Tripoli to .lie Zciiuno as follows:

I am dailv read'ng in the newspapers accoun of the dreadful cruelties committed by the Turco upon the wounded German prisoners. I am not at all astonished at these reports. The Turco5, for the most part, consist of the inhabi.ants of the Caboul, well known as the most brutal and ferocious of ihe North African tribes. In the Caboul campaign of 1.807, the captured French prisoners had their imbs iorn from hem, and the wounded had their eye plucked out and their noses and ears cut oil'bv the women of Caboul, and every manlv heart must be filled with indignation to find shat the French, who call themselves a civilized nation, should employ such blood-thirsty men, whose instincts arc well known to them, in war against another civilized na.ion, and hound them 011 against the Germans. But the day of reckoning does not .*eem far distant."

NEW OEUMAN EMPIRE.

A Leipsic letter in the Pari. Const it utimi'tl says: I have just seen in a bookseller's window here the new map of the German Empire ('l)ie Kane des Deutehen Reiciies.") It absorbs in France, Lorraine, Alsace and Franche-Compte the line then leaves the Doubs, and passes in Switzerland between Berne and Friburg, borders St. Gothard 011 the south, and crosses the Alps to Trieste, whence it remounts by Gratz and Vienna to the confines of Prussian Sile-aa. swallowing up in iis passage through Austria all the territory west of that line. To ihe north nothing is changed. Only the color of the (.Jerman province belonging to Russia is the same as that of the so called empire the only difference is that it is a little paler.

I he Story Told of the Headless IJidcr Noi a:i hnpoesibilil.V.

Fro.-n the London Lancet.] At the battle of Woerth it is said that at the third cha'ge of the cuirassiers a horse was to be seen going at full speed, with a headless rider. The mu.ilated corpse was that of M. de la Futzun de Laca: re, Colonel of the Third Regiment of French Cuirassiers, who had been decapitated by a cannon ball. Most jjeople on reading this would declare that it wa* a mere sensation paragraph, totally devoid of truth. Such an occurrence, however, would not by any means seem to be an impossibility. Not long ago we dilected onr readers' attention to an interesting article published by Dr. Brinton, surgeon to the Philadelphia Hospital, 011 the instantaneous rigidity which form? the occasional accompaniment of sudden and violent death, such as lesults from wounds of ihe head or heart. The startling phenomenon sometimes seen on the battlefield of the retention in death of the

We lead in a le.tcr from Me./.: "The head doctor in clia ge of the wounded at Gravelo.te info.ms me that in no war upon record have the woanded so soon recovered and been able so soon to return to their duty. This he accounts for by the verv small and clean wounds that the chassepot bullet inflicts. In nine ease out of twelve wlie.e the oullet has touched a bone it hps been diverted from its course, and has taken a diagonal direction. A splintered bone is a case of ia occ.ii'ience. On the o.lier hand, the needle bullet makes a fear.ul wound, and the P.ussiaii shells, cased as .iiey rtre wix.li lead to take the groovi ', still worse."

attitude in life, has not escaped the observation of military surgeons, although the facts connected therewith have not been studied with the attention that they deserve. Tho-e who are familiar wi.h the desc.ipiions that were given of the Crimean battlefields, particularly that of Inkerman, will remember that the various at.itiides and the expression of the features of the dead weie dwelt upon.

The report of M. Clienu contains a slio. account, chiefly based apon the communications of MM. A.mand and Pe:ier, of the altitudes of the dead in battle during the Crimean and Italian campaigns. At Magenta a Hungarian hussar, killed at the same time as his horse, remained almost in the saddle, testing on his right side, the point of his sabre carried forward, as at the charge. This rigidity generally follows sudden and violent deaths, but pot invariably. Dr. Brinton, among his eases, gives one of a very striking kind. He savs that a man wounded in ihe left breast at Belmont, Missouri, found astray mule, which he succeeded in mounting. While in the act of riding the animal he died but his corpse retained the upright mounted position, and on it becoming necessary to appropriate the mule to the 11 of a living wounded soldier the body was found to be so firmly and rigidly set as to demand a certain amount of positive fo^ ce to free the mule f.om the clasp of :he legs. Dr. Brinton is led to conclude, from l'is own observations and those of o.hers, that this battlefield rigidity is developed at the moment of death, and that the cadaveric attitudes are those of the last moment and act of life.

An Anecdote of Sydney Smith. From Taunton our friend proceeded to the parsonage of Combes Fleury, which he justly charac.etizes as "the plea.iante.st

place,

at that time, in England,' for the parson was Sydney Smith. Thereve end wit had been in Taunton during the election, and invited us to pay him a visit. We remained a few days—giomid'orrore di con'ento, like the famous day of the operatic Semiiamis, for soon after arriving I contrived to perpetrate a piece of

daiitisin for which I got a series of comic cas.iga ions that nearly drove me wild with laugh erand terror. Our host, unluckily, said something funny, very much like a joke I had heaid in my native land, and all unconsciously I exclaimed, nude-'the influence of patriotism or ihe devil, 'Dear me, Mr. Smith that's just what Mi1. said.' I need not a .empt a description of the look which lepaid this delirilous sally but it produced some of those sensations which no one wants to experience more than once. Among the rest of the party it caused an explosion in which I didn't feel the Jerst inclination to join. And pray, my young lend, who is Mr. was the bland inquiry, in a tone that added fearful vigor to the mirthful chorus. Summoning all my courage, I informed him-that Mr. was a man of great celeb iiy and humor, and I am afraid I even intima'ed some su piise that his reputation hadn't leached Combes Fleoiy. The information p.oduced its effect, for the monster, af.er his verv next jest, turned suddenly lound upon me and added, with profound salute, 'As Mr. the celebrated American humorist, would say'—and, as the phrase goes, I never heard the last of it. It was 'nuts' for liitn—he, the world-renowned wag—to be told bv an imberbis Yankee that he had been anticipated in his waggery by a Transatlan.ic joker. But lie liked me all the better for i. and if he did toi ment me almost out of my senses, it was wi.h such overflowing kindness that had I stayed a Utile longer I should fully have apprecia'ed the fun myself. Nothing could exceed his benevolent geniality and the enjoyment he seemed to feel in the enjoyment of others. He laughed exuberant' ly, not so nutch from delight in his own wit as from sympathy with the delight of his ai'dience, feeling, as it were, all the consciousness of a good action when he had set the table in a loar."—Lippi,icoU's Maga'.i.ie.

Tobacco for the Woiirded. I\o..i i.te London Lancet If the Oc one fact that has been more frequently stated than another, it is that the soldiers engaged in this war, well or wounded, seek the solace of tobacco. The inhabitants of every nation manifest simlar instincts, and one of the strongest is his desire to seek out some substance the use of which may stimulate or soo.he the nervous system. Tliei is no depriva tion which the habitual although not excessive smoker fee's so much as the loss tobacco and soldiers of all nations, especially of the French and German nations, smoke it. It was a standing in line.ion of the First Napoleon that his troops should have tobacco, and they found it of .he greatest advantage in the retreat from Moscow. WTe have been ac customed to look upon the Germans as fond of hard intellectual oil for i,s own sake, and men of abstraction and imagination, if we nm* judge from the pre valence of ihe p'-ac.ice of smoking amon^ them, unquestionably appear to find an aid in tobacco. But ihe manhood of Germany luts risen like a giant refreshed to undergo any physical exertion and hardship that may be 1 eqtii ed and this war has taxed the physical energies of the stronge t. The soldier, wearied with long matches and uncertain rest, obtaining his food how and when he can, with his nervous system always in a state of tension from the dangers and excite ment he encounters, finds that his cigar or pipe enable him to sus.ain hunger or fatigue with comparative equanimity. Explain this as we may, this is physiologi caliy true, and medical officers who would not be sorrv to see the issue of a "spirit ration" discontinued, are compelled to allow that the moderate use of tobacco by soldiers in the tield has several advantag es. For the wounded it is probable that tobacco has slight anodyne and narcotic properties that enable the sufferer to tsustain pain better dt.ring the day, and to obtain sleep during the night.
