O* Hair Dir —We don’t intend, in the publication of the subjoined para graph, to be personal, or to reflect on such of onr fellow-citizens as design to beautify and rejuvenate themselves by the application of “dye stuffs" to the “capillary substance" on their venerable craniums. That is a privilege which they undeniably possess, and with which they have nothing to do; but as we found the paragraph in an exchange; and as it contains such a forewarning to those who are not particular as to the kind of dye-stuff they use, we give it a place in our columns: The Petersburg Index says a young gentleman in that city, whose hair was light, recently purchased a bottle of quack hair-dye to improve on nature. The second application produced an effect almost as damaging as the catas trophe in “Ten Thousand a Year,” for his locks, from a bright yellow, turned to a deep-violet color, forming a contrast with his bright eyebrows and blonde complexion—as pitiable as lndicrous. .The victim has removed in-doors for ten days, but his head is still purple. This examplq should- be a warning to all othess. Remember There it a destiny that Shapes our ends rough, Hue them how we may. New Firm under ax old Name.— lt will be seen by reference to our adver tising columns, that E. M. Bruce & Cos. have associated with them, Major C. A. Withers, their former Cashier. Mr. Withers is a young gentleman of excel lent business- qualifications, aud tbe firm of whiefi he has become a member, is one of the first in the country. In deed, so well known is it to the public, for reliability and promptness of des patch, that it needs no. commedatiou at our hands, further than that already given. Thanks.—Friend' Quinn will accept our thanks for late numbers of the New York dailies—the Herald, Times, and Tribune. River News.—The river stands three feet nine inches. Arrivals on Sunday —* I Two Boys and Swan. The Hard Times, Two Boys and Swan left for Savannah yesterday. The Augusta Press.—Mr. E. H. Pnghe has enlarged and improved his paper. It is alive, and robust with “healthy” jpatter. We commend the Daily Press to those wanting a paper from Augusta. —Neicbern (S. C.) Her ald. The Augusta Daily Press comes to us greatly enlarged and beautified. It is a good paper, and we wish it the most abundant success.— Griffin (Ga.) Amer ican Union. The Augusta Daily Press comes to us this week greatly enlarged and im proved, and is now one of the cheapest dailies in the State, being only $5 per annum.— CartersviUe (Ga.) Express. Charity.—Mr. A. T. Stewart, the prince of dry goods merchants, has presented tlie Petersburg (Va.) Orphan Asylum with a roll of fine flannel and a quantity of delaine, sufficient to furnish each orphan with a dress. Starting a Newspaper. Most everybody has heard Jhe anecdote of Sheridan’s telling his son to take a wife when the son replied, “Yes, father, but whose wife shall I take ?” A similar story is the following: “A young gentle man says to the colonel a few days since, “Colonel, I wish to start a news paper.” “Ve-y well,” replied the colonel, “which newspaper do you wish to start.” The Crop.—The accounts from South ern and Southwestern Georgia are de cidedly more encouraging, though noth ing can be determined, without certainty of a late frost. In the middle and upper portions of the Stat%the prospect is un changed. Advices from the West are also more hopeful, though there is still great uncertainty as to what the future will bring forth.— Savannah News and Herald. Plain Talk.—A plain spoken West ern preacher delivered the following from his desk: “I would tt the congregation that, probably by mistake, there was left at this meeting-house, this morning, a small cotton umbrella, much damaged by time and wear, and exceed, ingly pale in color, in place whereof was taken a very large silk umbrella, and of great beauty. Blunders of this sort, brethren and sisters, are getting a little too common.” Brownlow. —Brownlow is a repre sentative “ loyalist ” and an infernr.l coward. He is the most envenomed old scoundrel unhung on this continent; and it is to be hoped that when the “ three divisions ” start, they will com mence with him. If these utterances of his are loyat, there’s not a Southern man —not a Northern man —not a patriot— not a Christian—not a gentleman —who wouldn't see our much loved country dead and damned before he’d he loyal. —Panola Miss. Star. Thk Paris Charivari lias a picture of the Atlantic Telegraph Company. The telegrapher: “ What the deuce is the meaning of this ? Dog 7 A dispatch dated, Dog 7” “ Why, you see I did not want to say New Found Land, be cause that would be fifteen dollars, so I wrote Dog to save ten dollars.” The Beauties of Editing.—An editor says, in a recent letter to a friend: “At present I am in the country, re covering from fourteen years editorial life—bad eyes, crooked back, and broken nerves, with little to show for it.” Arty one would think the throe articles enumerated were quite enough to show for it. Pics.—ln the United .States there are more pigs than human population. In England there is only one pig lot every nine human inhabitants. HOTEL ARRIVALS, **GLOfJE HOTEL. W. C.

Pens, in the present stage of manu facturing art, requires a greater share of hand-labor than pins. At Mi*. Gilltjtt’s Brimingham (England) establishment, known as the “Victoria Works.” 120,- 000,000 pens are made each year by guided by 400 women and 100 men,' “The steel,” says Mr. Measom, “is procured from Sheffield. It is first cut up into narrow strips, and is carefully pickled by immersion in diluted sulphu ric acid, and then reduced to the proper thickness by being passed through metal rolls. In this condition it is fit to be madef into pens, and for this purpose it is passed into the hands of a girl, who, with a punch fitted into the screw of a hand press, and a corresponding bed, speedily, cuts out the blank. The next process, namely, that of perforating the small hole which terminates the slit, and re moving any superfluous steel likely to interfere with the elasticity of the pen, is also done by a woman. The incipi ent pens are now in a condition to have the maker's name and any ornamental device stamped upon them. For this purpose they are annealed in large quantities in a muffle, and, after being cooled, they are placed under a large stamp, in which is held the device to be impressed, cut in steel; the hammer of the stamp falls, and the marking and ornamentation are complete. Up to this stage the future pen is a flat piece of steel. It is then transferred tp another woman, who, by means of a press and dye, makes it concave if it is to be a nib, and forms the tube if it is to be a barrel pen. Hardening follows. By this pro cess a number of pens are put into an iron box, which is placed in a “muffle; ” when the whole is of a uniform red heat, they are plunged into oil, and the superfluous oil is removed by agitation in a revolving cylinder. At this stage the pen is as britde as glass, but the temper ing which follows imparts elasticity. After that, the peus are again placed in a revolving cylinder, with pounded cru cible sand, or some other cutting sub stance, the abrasion of which, by the re volving cylinder, speedily discloses the natural color of the steel. Next follows the grinding of the nib, by submitting it to the emery wheel. The pen is then in a condition to be slit, the slitting being the most particular of the many processes of steel pen-making. A chisel or wedge with a flat side is fixed to the bed of a press, and the descending screw has a corresponding chisel or cutter at tached to it, which passes down and is most accurately fitted. The pen is laid on the lower chisel, the screw is made and the pen completed. The last stage is the coloring, brown or blue. This is done by placing the bright steel pens in a revolving iron cylinder, under which is a charcoal stove, until the desired color is arrived at. The final brilliancy is im parted by immersing them in gum lac dissolved in naphtha.” Newspaper Postage.—By a recent order of the Post Office Department all newspapers addressed to the following countries beyond Germany, when for warded in the closed mail to Prussia, must be fully prepaid to their destina tion, at the rates named : Russia, including Fin’and and Po land; 8 cents each; Sweden, 10 cents; Norway, 13 cents; Denmark, 9 cents ; Schleswig-Holstein, 8 cents ; land, 9 cents; Italy, via Switzerland, 11 cents, Papal States, via Switzerland, 12 cents; Turkey, via Jerusalem, 14 cents; Turkey, via Trieste, 11 cents; Greece, via Trieste, 14 cents; Egypt, via Trieste, 11 cents; British East In dies and China, via Trieste, 13 cents; Farther India, Dutch and French pos sessions, via Trieste, 15 cents. —There are in all, including steam’ boat piers and railway stations, silty-two inlets to the city of London, through which in the course of each twenty-four hours no fewer than 706,021 persons enter, a number equal to one-fourth of the entire metropolitan population, or, added to the sleeping population, to more than the entire population of Dub lln, Edinburgh, aud Glasgow put to gether. Manufactures.— Let it be kept be fore the people, that to save fifteen dol lars on every five hundred pounds of Cotton, is to manufacture Colton inhere it it yroum ; and to manufacture Cotton in Sonth Carolina: is to quadruple its value to the State. As the Charleston Hews, in one of its able articles, justly observes, the cotton mill has been the means of building up the largest for tunes in the world. Old England and New England owe much of their great wealth to this cause, and what may;ni4 South Carolina—what may not Coinin' bia, with lujcinagnijiqept water power, do in following the same pursuit ? Georgia and Alabama are pushing for ward in the good work. The Augusta (Ga.) Factory has just declared its third quarterly, dividend of five per cent. Let us not behindhand. There is a grand here for capitalists, and he who comes first will enjoy the lion’s share. Onr publiMplrited citizen, 1 Colonel L. D. Childs, has already led off in the good work. The Saluda Factory has been rebuilt, and will be in running order in less than two months with the best ma chinery that can be imported. A large number of hands will thus be employed, and from four to five bales of Cotton per day be worked into the finest yarn. Will not others follow ? 0 The Episcopal House op Bishops. —A New York dispatch, of a recent date, says the House of Bishops of the Episcopal Church have not agreed, as yet, upon the choice of a Bishop for Nevada. The proceedings are secret— so much so, indeed, that the most per manent and ingenious newspaper re porter has been baffled in his attempt 'to gain eutrance. An effort was made in the last General Convention to do away with this feature, but only a few of the Right Rev. Fathers could be got in favor it. North Carolina Politics.—Dr. J. T. Leach, a prominent citizen of John ston county, writes to the people of that county: “ If this amendment be not adopted, none of us need be surprised should the next Congress revoke every Presiden tial pardon, confiscate property, and force universal suffrage upon us. Let us be wise in time, and avert these calamities by submitting to the requirements of the lawmaking power.” —A gre tt deal has been said aDd written about what is called “trick” in art. Yet it seems to be of little conse quence by what means a painter pro duces his effects, so long as he produce them. It is said that Ansdell obtains the peculiar crispness of the plumage of ducks and other birds by the applica tion of a piece of poplin while the paint is still wet.
