The Soath found her Jewel ta a toad's aead. The shsekles that had held her in narrow limitations fell forever when the shackles of the negro slave were broken. Under tbe old regime the negroes were slaves to the south, the South waa a slave to the system.

Why should haldnoes afeet them awre than others? Beeante they hahitnMlr stand or aft nearly every evening under gaslights. Book-keepers always have a strong light right over their heads or just in front of them. So do clerks who have to work at night And at for compositors, sometinaes they work aU day tinder gaslights. Retail salesmen aeU goods at night directly under two powerful Imrners, and most of the time their heads are not more than two or three feet from the flame. Tbe artificial beat dries out the hair, makes it brittle and unhealthy, and Anally kills it at tbe root If you wilt pass your band through your hair after f on have been standing tinder a gas light for a few moments, yon will see at once bow it is. Although yon may not bare noticed the beat on your head, your hah, if yrmv'e got any, will be hot to tbe roots. You'll be surprised to ooserve, too, at what a distance from the light the hair will absorb tbe beat Xow, there Is nothing so bed for the bah as getting It dry. That is why tbe use of water en it Is so injurious because it evaporates no readily and takes with It the natural oil of tbe hair. Tour hair should be moist all the time, and with the oil that h secreted by the Httle oelW at tbe root. When the oil is continually and rapidly dried out, as it is when tbe head ht kept heated by gaslight, the cell dries up mid tbe hair falls ottt. People who sit under the gaslight should wear some kind of t cool, ikmi -conducting headgear to protect tneimeives, I have an idea, too, that after tfcsf eleetrie light has been in universal nss for a generation or two, baldness will be aa scarce as it was before gaslight B msXiaaWs diiaA aMhjaala.aMLAao akja as um BtM nignt wotx got common tngetaer Very young girls, who have this Sanson made their debut is society, are antled'ehbiee."

la a as a af hie Use fweraga -1 oa Caaaplaiintly. Cabinet is atill aaooapleted. Lord J Bahabury ooutiauea to make changes aad rearrangetoaats, which are exultingty noted by the Ohtdatoaian Uherabt as be traying the tatriasic weakness of the government But since it has become deNaltoly known that Mr. Ooschea, as ChaaeeUor of tbe Exchequer, ia to he tbe only Whig ta the Cabinet, popular interest in the ultimate compoaitlon of tbe body has abated. Tbe mere dominant aueetiou is, what change of policy will be brought about by reason of Mr. Ooaohen's preicnoi in tbe council of tbe government? lhoe familiar with the strong mentality of UiIh really great Maancier are freely predicting that, having now for the first time obtained an opportunity to show what he can do. be will surprise those who have hitherto failed to reeogitlae adequately his abilities. In fact, he te exposed to be to the Salisbury cabinet what John Xoriey waa to the last Gladstone cabinet It te at least pretty certain that be will have a ehanra te win his spurs, if he can, as a government leader, for the tenure of Right Hon, William Henry Smith, in that capacity is to be but temporary. Before the dose of the session, 3f r. (smith will be transferred to the House of Lords. He preferred to remain ia the House of Commons, nnd in that esse would, of course, have been entitled to the leadership; but for a war secretary to lead the government ranks would have been an awkward innovation. Precedent -which in Xnglish governmental affairs amount nearly to tew requires that the leader: of the Commons shall be either the Chancellor of the Sxhecquer or the First Lord of the Treasury: and it will be easier to elevate the War Secretary to the peerage thsn to-break in upon a timehonored custom. Then,toe,tkereisnodoubt thst Xr. Goschen will strengthen Lord Salisbury's hands, especially in his foreign policy, and, more particularly, that part of the foreign policy which lies in the direction of the German and Austrsin alliance aad tbe retentlun of Kaglieh control over Egypt. In regard to the Irish question, Xr, Goschen supports Lord Ashbourne's theories. He furors a settlement of the land problem by the introduction of a large scheme to buy out the landlords, but concurrently with this he would insist upon the severest measures in the carrying out of existing laws, regardless of the character of the tenants' claims to forbearance. His influence, therefore, tends straight toward the enactment of another crimes bill. The leading measure for England, modified under him, will be one in regard to local government. The first draft of the bill on the project prepared before Xr. Goschen entered the cabinet certainly contained a proposal to give the popular vote only a half rep resentation on county boards, vesting the other half in the privileged classes. Mr. Goschen has now received Lord Salisbury' s assent to his views in favor of making the measure one which recognises unmixed popular representation. To sum up Xr. Goschen's presenot ia tbe cabinet means the promulgation of an absolutely sound fiscal policy. The budget, under the influence of his well-known financial views, will be laid down on the strnlghtest lines known te conservative finance. Ko sea national figures will enter into the estimates of the new Chaacsllor of the, Exchequer. He will make the most ef bis knowledge of monetary affairs and it is almost unlimited to strengthen the position of the reorganised cabinet financial ly, aad he will help to give to the country a sound administration in those fcreat spend la? departments of the Government the army and navy. His foreign policy, like Lord Salisbury's, will be firm: his treatment of Irish affairs, however, will be dangerous; certainly dangerous to the continuance ia power of a Tory government, for Xr. Goschen's record te implacably opposed te any but the severest measures for Ireland. Liberal Unionists are beginning te realise the fact that Xr. Goschen's appearance ia the Tory camp has cast a general suspicion over the whole Liaeral-Usionist section that as psoudo Liberals, despite their protest, they are hound soon to be absorbed into the Conservative ranks. An immediate result of this conviction has beea the rapid gravitation of the Radical Union lata toward Xr. Gladstone. Had Xr. Goeobea rejected Lord .Salisbury's offer of otsoe, the Cham-berlain-Xorley conference would never have been thought ef, oertainly never have taken place. Xr. Chamber lei a' a consultation with the leaders ef the National Radical Union have disciosed an eagerness on the part of the majority of members for conciliation on terms far beyond whnt Xi. Chamberlain himself was willing to concede, Xr, Chamberlain was prepared to go some length toward an amicable arrangement, no doubt, but he was hardly ready te oonsede demands which km Unionist eolleages did not think very reasonabb). Ia short when notes were compared, Xr. Chamberlain found himself almost alone ta) some points of opposition to his old friends, the Liberals, and many of his Ideas about "sticking it out" were received by h' brother Radlcal-Us kmints with a discounting fukewarmaess. lie bee without qu"tlon been forced into his present position by the consultation. If the spirit and desires ef "he Radloal-Un-lonteta were faithfully represented by Messrs. Chamberlain and Trerelyan at the recent conference com crning reunion, R is probable that the Radicals will Ultimately accent Xr. Gladstone's HomeRule bill, provided tbe powers of the pronosed Irish Parliament be limited so as to leal with measures of domestic legislation, which powers shall be strictly defined by statute law. In outward seemini; this wns Xr. Chamberlain's position when he was In utter opposition to Xr. Gladstone, but the compromise is to be looked for ht the wide sphere to be assigned to the Irish Parliament in the matter of legislation. Ths difference between the Uladstontens and tho Radical-Unionists becomes a matter of mere words if the Irish Parliament be given ample power in domestie affairs, j specifically defined by statute, instead of the privilege embodied in the Gladstone bill, which left the Irish legislature In full control except where its nrerograUve was limited by clauses which tpedfottfy defined the matters upon which it might not pass.

But the Tribune might spare its ad vice to the Administration in urging oommercinl retaliation against Cana dian vessels m American ports. It criticises the Administration for pre terring diplomatic method to aggres sive action. Fortunately for the country, the Administration does not propose to use such an extreme policv, unless an a Inst resort, and selects the safer and more satisfactory method of conciliator argument The State De partinciit does not intend to submit to the Canadian Government's srlHtrnry interpretation of the treaty of ISIS, tha only agreement on which tine question can be discussed. Tlie only treaty that had brought peace and prosperity to her fishermen was deliberately abrogated by the Republicans, ami when Mr. Bayard endeavored to serve the interests of Amer lean fishermen, by making an arrnngement with the British Government, by which the fishermen should have the spring and summer fishing and enjoy privileges and optiorttinities without expense, he received onlv abuse for it. Tlie Republicans refused to entertain his project for a joint com mission to settle the points in dispute and Mr. Bayard could only fall back on this treaty of 1818. Tlie beneficent treaty effected by Hon. Whi, L. Marcy, in 1864, brought about a leacefitl set tlement of difficulties similar to those which now confront Mr. Bavartl. Tlie Republicans chose to abrornte this treaty in order to place a grievous bur den on the shoulders ol the incoming Administration. Mr. Bayard is making a bold stand for the interests of our fishermen, but a grcnt ileal depends upon Congress. If thst lody refuse to consent to a commission to get at the damage incurred and open the way to remove all difficulties, it is not Mr. Baysrd's fault lie has roved himself one of the ablest statesmen that ever guided the affairs of the department, ami he disregards attacks and alander, his whole mi ml being absorbed in tbe faithful fulfillment of his duty.

TiWB flN9praWWfaMwa wt4T JsaWR TTttlk ewVUV Pa VHaStaaVC fartWJf Oa) saBrA4aVs9taN aThPtfUte A recent interview with Senator Mil ler has stirred up a hornets' neat in tbe Republican ranks, and in tbe judgment of many of the Herkimer statesman's friends he haa seriously itnmired his chances for h re-election. In the interview in question Mr. Miller took occasion to defend his mistakes as a party loader. He declared that he was not responsible far the Keiniblicnn reverses in this State since Ids elevation to the Senate five years ago. His advice had been disregarded. He charged the defeat of Mr. Blaine m 1884 to the National Republican Committee. It refused to accept the advice- of the State Committee last year, which, he says, was controlled by nls friends, and took the counsel ef Thomas C. 1'istt. The interview has brtrugitt forth a good deal of vigorous dewnnciHtMm from the members of the Nntrsstnl Committee, in particular from B. F. Jones, of Pittsburgh, the chairman ef the committee, and from Stephen B. llkins who wns the cvmmk tee's exeenthre officer. Mr. Klkins in eonrersationwith a friend, said: "Warner Miller i the last man to impute the defeat of Blaine to the National Committee, ami you msy put it down for a fact thnt the influence of that committee will be used against Miller in the coming Senatorial contest. We have direct proof that previous to the- National convention of 1884 Miller worked secretly to irerent Blaine's nomination, with tho ides of bringing himself forward as n compromise candidate. Then, after Blaine was nominated, Miller and his friends made no special eln t to entry New York.

State Committee there were three factions about equal In strength the halfbreeds, who were controlled by Miller ami his friends, and the Arthur and tha Piatt stalwarts, The Piatt men had earnestly supported Blaine's noniinatlon, ana utey wereuwiuauneu in savor of Ids election, The Arthur men were disgruntled and sore. Mr, Miller Induced his half-reed friends to plat's the organisation of the Stats Committee in tits bauds of men who had been bitterly opjHMiod to Blaine's nomina tion. We thought then that Miller s action was prompted by his opposition to ex-Senator llatt The Uticn convention of 1884 was largely against General Arthur and could have been controlled for Blaine by any sort of skillful management Mr. Miller refused to consult with Oie lenders of the Republican jwrty there, aud so dallied with his negotiations with the Kdmumla men that he wns beaten. The National Committee took the ground that its duty was to consult with" all leading Republicans. Piatt, Cornell, and other men of their follow ing were constantly hi consultation with Mr. Jones and his committee Miller dumaudud that tho committee take no advice but his. Thev did not reganl that as a wise policy and Miller sulked iu his tent. Chairman Jones has a right to feel indignant when charged with infidelity by a man in Miller's position. No man evor worked harder or more faithfully in any cause than Jones did for Hlalne. He workec' like a hero, and if he had received th vast co-operation of nil Mr, Blaine' supposed friends in New York Blaint would have been elected in spite or Btirchard. " Mr. Klklns and other prominent Re publicans allege that Miller schemed in nn underhanded way for the nomination at Chicago ami was deeply mortified at the miscarriage of his plans. His recent attack on the Na tional Committee is said to have Iwen actuated by Uie direot refusal of the committee to help him in his Senatorial contest Chicago A'em.

Dr. Lincoln, by an historical allusion, recalled the episodo at President Arthur's funeral, and wound up his discourse by savinjf: "There is still enough energy here to sweep heresy irom the face of the earth, though the Boston of the Collinses aud the O'Briens is not the Bos ton of the ninthrops and the Pilgrims." Commenting upon this the Boston Trantoript says: "It is some what remarkable that the 'heresy which Dr. Lincoln thinks sustains the Collinses and the O'Briens here is just that sentiment upon which Mr. Blaine and his friends rely to make him President two years hence. And to speak slightingly of it anywhere was a capital blunder on Dr. Lincoln's part But what can you expect when intelligent men are so beguiled as are Mr. Blaine's devotees? The developments of the Senato rial struggle, prove nothing if not thnt tho Republican party is given over to loot and 'Mnonnybaws." William M. Kvarts is in tlie United States Senate, but bis seat there was obtained by the lavish use of money in the hands of unscrupulous agent and go-be tweens of corporations. It was oiienly charged and never contradicted that although Levi P. Morton's canvass was then very expensive, twice as much as waa paid by the Iwtckers of Bvarbs who wanted to have him where he could do thesa the most good. His circulated lithographs, which were sent out by a rich corporation to groom him as a. dark herse, told at once what interests were behind him. Thee interests could not lie made secure by a man of Levi P. Morton's ability, but with Kv arts in the benate the only remaining branch of the Federal Government that could be relied upon te thwart the wishes of the people in regard to corporate interests, they would be safe. iSamy Argus.
