Comments and Explanations.
This Act substantially was first pasted a
a special law for tho counties of Chester and
Delaware iu 1851. In subsequent yenrs it
was extended to tho counties of Allegheny,
Mercer, Cniuuriu, Indiana, Jefferson, Pike,
Westmoreland, Crawford, Wayne, Krio,
I'uyuttc, Warren, Potter, and Susquehanna.
At the session of the Legislature ju.t closed,
tho law was askod for 1 some ten or twelve
additional counties, and it was thought tho
time bad come to uiaka it general,
It will be noticed that such land as is
taken in the manner prescribed, can only be
used for the purposo of erecting thereon u
school-house. No ownership to tho land is
acquired, and when no longer used fur tho
purpo.'O named, it reverts to tho original
owner.
A board of school directors is so consti
tuted that there is litlto probability that
private rights will sutler uny grout detri
ment from their action, und tho amount of
damages which may be assessed upon tho
dislry-t wi.I) ahyays prove u great chock upon
them.

Whether that is their real purpose or not,
the effect of tho teaching of the extremt
ltadical school of politician $-ho are just
now electioneering the negroes at the South
yill bo to array tho two races sguijist each
other politically and socially. The blacks
are warned by these men not to trust the
whiles in atiythiug. They are reminded
thut tho wb.i.tcj are tkeir old enemies that
if they could have had their way J.hcy would
still be holding them in slavery, find that
what they are striving niter now is to de
privc them of all the benefits of their free
dnm. A Massachusetts fmissjry named
I lay ward iias been advising the negroes of
jucnmoiKi 10 take possession oi tlie cars
and of whatever else they wish. Iu New
Orleans, under the same kind of teaching,
t,l;,ey have driven tho whites out of the street
cars. The j;u'i.i engaged in this infamous
attempt to stir up u. jyar of races at tho
South, are not likely to be influenced ly
iuiy fear or foresight of consequents : ro it
is probably .qvJto useless to warn them thut
they arc bringing sure destruction upon the
elass whom they profess to uid. A war of
races can only end in disaster to the weaker;
and &c blacks urc not half as nuincrousjis

FinIIuiiii iu1 Follies pl'Ilnlr.
"A womaii's glory js in her liuir," hns
often been quoted. If t bo, sho is deter
mined to dim it in these days of &,i'lificiul-
ity and fauliionublo folly. Now sho twists
Dot ojjly )ier own hair, but as much us she
can purehnsc, into tho most unseemly und
grotesque shapes, marring, as if with pro
mediated bad taste, every gia;:ofijl cjjrvo
and every line of beauty. A fashionable
woman's head at present is a wonder of un
sightlinuss,' Ono would not think so many
of the sex could, without positive genius for
the hideousncss, so deform thcmsolyc, as
they do, iu asinglc sitting. They rise iu the
morning, go from tho bath comely uud
charming as nature created them. They
appear two hours later, fresh from tho hands
of their maids, or their own manipulations,
cluborutely wrought out of all symmetry
and attractiveness, especially iu regard to tho
hair.
Ingenuity appears to bavo been exhaus
ted of 1 it j years, to nuiko woman's hair look
like anything else ; to givo her head a size
and form ami proportion little less than re-pul-iyo.
Curls, crimps, bands, waterfalls,
ami v,e ki,uw no what, vie with each other
iu destroying the fair semblance of tho hu
man head. Tho more homely a fashion,
the iiiimo lively it is ta be u favorite ; tlie
more unbecoming, the more apt it is to en
dure. One cannot go into company that
prctoftds to lu elca.jJ, without havijig his
eye pained by the iineouthness of the hair
dressing, and djsjtyrtion of till thut gr.od
tast,e avojjIJ Miggest. ifu is ieniinded of
stage goblins, or of his childish notions of
tho inr.iistcr.s of tji.o Arabian tales. I), for
a brave, sensible woman, who would dare to
be natural, dare to defy the dictate of fash
inn, when fashion arrays itself against sim
plicity, fitness and grace. Those few could
reform tlie follies and insanities of dress.
What others did, ihey wojld bo bold to .do,
und beauty begin iigain.
The presei.tt style of wearing the waterfall
on the tup of tho hed-:it was bad enough
behind it is simply a deformity. It de
stroys the proportion of the head, aud is an
cxcrcscnco that no one cun refrain from de
siring to see removed, even by violonce. A
woman might vssnull have u hump on her
back, or walk on stil'Sj us )t is said she died
in tho early days of Venice, or cover ono of
her soft, cheeks with a black plaster, or wear
rings in her nose, lint st.c ill not believe
it ; for no woman would consciously mar her
bcontjvtjr diminish the grtteobhohadiiF
hcrited. Who dyes ot king fbr the simple
arrangement of the hair, as wo see it iu
Grecian statue.", plainly put back from the
facc.gr fulling oyer ihc.ear and cheek, with
a neat coil behindj or a braid, if yar;ety be
needed ?
No woman has a right lo spoil her a
pcaranco for fashion's sake. She owes more
beauty nnd to nature, then to&e mantuma
ker or to eapnse; and we must believe the
time will wan when the really fiuo wonitvi
will consider carefully the extent nnd sucrcd-
ncss of hcrd'-'bt and dischargo i.t conscien

Itcliglous lustrnrflon at Home.
A recent writeroffers tho following sugges
tion to parents .
"Wc must not forget the btportuncc of
striving to cultivate a frank confidence and
sympathy iu tho relations of home. It
has seemed to inc, in many cases to which
I have given some study, that tho great
privileges and opportunities which parents
enjoy, arc otlcn destroyed by their allowing
greats alls of spiritual distance and aliena
tion to I'i'so between thcmrelvcs nnd their
children.. It is sad to seo tho .children of a
family growing up into manhood nnd wo
manhood, and wc oftev sec them, huvii) as
littlo acknowledged communion, or religious
life with their parents us if they were a par
eel of bears' cubs ; never hearing from fath
er or uiothrr a simple, earnest avowal of re
ligious faith, much less Uio simplest words
of worship, trained by their parent's reserve
to keep to their own bosoms whatever, relig
ious emotion tho Spirit of God may have
quickened thcro ; uud finding tho first sym
pathy nnd mutual confession which will fan
tlie faint sparks of worship asd consecration
on their hearts' altars into a blazing flumo
Gliding this for the first tiiuo' .after they
have gone from their cbudhoods home.
Whilo I appreciate the power of a religious
atmosphere .and of religious observances in
Christian nurture, it seems to mo that this
habitual religious confidence is the most effi
cient aud indispcnsiblc. Gain tho perfect
trust and affection of your child, in tho curly
years when it looks to you with such relig
ious awe as you look to God, and when the

A Ship ol" ljutli Floats Into u
Port of the Shetland Islands.
Since the tiino when the Ancient Mariner
told tlie terrible tale of the cniiso-ladcn ship,
with her ctnw of feduftly corpses, no more
thrilling btwry of the sea has been related
thai) that of the whale sliip Diana, thut re
cently drifted i))to pno gf tl;o Shctluifd Is
lands. 4 year ago she left tho Siietlands on a
whaling voyage to tho Artie regions, having
on board fifty men. From thut tiino nothing
more was heard of her. Tljo friends of those
on board becamo alarmed. Money was
raised and premiums offered to tho first ves
sel that would bring tidings of the missing
ship, but all to no avail. Hope was almost
abandoned.
On tho 2J of April tho people ucarllouu's
Voo, in ono of tho Shetlund Isles, were
startled at seeing a ghastly wreck of a ship
sailing into the harbor. Haltered and ice
crushed, sails and cordage out away, boats
and spars cut up fbr fuel in the terrible Artie
winter, her decks covered 'with dead and dy
ing, the long lost J'laua hailed in like a ship
from Headman's Lund. Fifty men sailed
out of Lerwick in her on abrightMnymoru-
ing last year. All of the fifty came back on
her on the 2d of April, this year ; the same,
but .bo different,
Ten men, of whom tho captain was one,
lay stiffened corpses nn the deck ; thirty-live
lay helplessly sick, and some dying, two re
tained sufficient sU-cnglh to creep uloft, und
llteothcr thrco crawled feebly about the. dock .
Tho ship was boarded by tjio isjandere, and,
as they cljiyb.ed oyer tho bulwarks, tl;o mac
at the wheel Liutiug from exciteuuint, one of
the sick died us he lay, his death being an
nounced by tho fellow occupant of his berth .
feebly moaning, '"Take away thisdeadmnn."
On tho bridge of the vessel lay tho body of
the captain, as il had laid for four mouths,
with nine of his daad shipmates by his bide,
all decently laid out by those who suou ex"
peeled to share tjicir fjile.
The survivors could not bear to sink the
bodies of their comrades into tlie sea, but
kept them so that when the last man died the
fated ship that had been their coinmgn home
should be their common tomb. Tho surgeon
of tho ship worked faithfully to the hist, hut
cold, hunger, scurvy nud dysentery were too
much for him. The brave old Captain was
the first victim, ai;d died blessing his men.
Then the others fell, ono by one, until the
ship vas tcnaUcd only by the dead and dy-
mtr. Une-mght morcut yea wulit nave 1
left the Diana a flouting coffin. Not one of
the Guy would Laye liycd to tell the ghastly
title.

to put his knee on tho breast of tho game
little fellow, and to Uikehiiu by tie throat

James then got up, brushed off his clothes,

SOT The Nevada 7VwMSc,'fit tells the fol
lowing story of a fellow up in that region :
"A boarder who had run behind in payment
of his bill, being out of money and nearly
out of credit, determined to "play" the
landlord, lie hud a good wardrobe, which
it would bo difficult to remove in tho ordi
nary way without arousing the suspicions of
tho landlord, so ho decided upon the strate

second story ot the hotel. lie secured tho
services of a friCnd, who promised to go on

a small bottle which I; ail been carelessly left
near the cogc of a table, it fell to the floor

She stood ughast. What could she do?
She hastily gathered up tho pieces, threw
them out of the window, whiped up the ink,
und then stopped to think. "She won't sec
it very soon, uud w hen she docs she may
think it was the other girl," was the first
thought. "But you did it, nnd you ought

Tliti Last Man In the Uurucr
Shoo.
Wo have seen many illustrutioris of mis
ery, many that move tho hardest heart to
pity ; but nothing can bo more touching to'
an observer, nothing better defines misery,
than a in an in a barber shop, with a dozen
or so ahead of him, waiting to bo shaved.
It is impossible for uny ono wlfo uerer has
experienced it to know how HiUch herve is
required to pass successfully through this or
deal. Different natures, of course, exper
ience different degrees of misery as they
wait. "The poor but virtuous youpg innti,'
struggling with a moustache" (tho fading
hue of which has brought him again to tho
tutisoiiul rti4), having nu engagement with
Susan who has told him, "anything but a
feller us isn't on tiino" cun probably bo
put down as tho subject ot most ubje;:t
wretchedness and despair, as hp enters uud
looks around upon "less miserables" who
uio "ahead" of him, the last of whom
mingles with his misery s riui satisfaction
that some one comes after hiiuV
Tho young man would rather "dyo" at
once than be subjected to tho suspense hs
must endure. Talk of ambition ; of fame,
as she becons from afar to the midnight
porer over volumes filled with learning and
wisdom, or to the warrior as he cuts bis way
with his bword uud wades through seas of
blood to her shining goal I The scholar's
ambition fades to insignificance, and the
soldier's d real n of glory vanishes before the
mighty yearnings of the lust man' in tuo
barber shop, wailing for his turn'. No goal
but the cushioned chair does ho sec, "so'
near, and yet so far."
There is music to him ,iu tho barber's
"next," us it lessons tho distance between
him ;nd his nuibitious goal ; and when it
finally appeals to him, he experiences Os joy
that the honied words of flattery fail to bring
to him who has fluild filme. Kh'force the
Maine law prohibiting tilling hovps, make
good street crossings, &c., and wo .will sub
