l The Hdar.-Grey hairs, the proverbial at. tendant upon age, exemplity tine operation ot the principle of defective nourishment ard suppressed secretion. Early and viz orous ill their growth, the hairs of the head are generally the first to show symptoms of decay. Great differences may, however, be observed in different individuals as to the period when the hair exhibits change ot color, or falls off; in some it grows grey at thirty years of age, or even earlier; with others this change docs not take place till the less equivocal indications of age are manifested. Many causes which affect but little the general constitution accelerate the death ot the hair more especially the de- pressing passions, Corroding anxieties, and intense thought. Fevers are often destruc- tive to the vitality of the hair, when they do not permanently affect any other part of the body. There is however, an essential difference in the effects of disease and of old age upon hair, inasmuch as the former sell dom destroys the bulbous capsula, from Winch the hair is formed and, according iy, new crop of hair is often found to spring up, after a certain time, when the system recovers it's vigor. But the death of hair from age is hopeless and irretrievablc. for 1t implies the destruction of every part ot the root as well as the shaft and the consequent separation of the hair is attend- ed With the Cbliteration of the canal which It occupied and which penetrated the true skin. The loss of color in hair begins in the shaft, which first becomes grey, then white, and lastly transparent, giving to it that sllvery appearance which is esteemed so venerable a mark ofage. Badness gen. orally commences over the upper parts of the temporal occipital bones, particularly Tn the male sex, and thence spreads over the whole upper surface oi the head.

 Weeds an Gordens.-Some people are very particular in the spring of the year, while their garden plants are young and small, to give earnest battle to the weeds, that they may not outgrow and destroy the plants; but us soon as their vegetables attain good size, they seem to think that as long as the new weeds are smallest, there is no danger to the plants, and from this time they become less earnest in the business of wedding, and suf- fer the foul stuff to grow and ripen and scat ter their seeds for bountiful crop next year. This is mistaken policy. If weeds, draw ing nutrlment from the soil, are an injury any time of year, they are an evil at any pe- riod of the vegetating season. Whatever a weed takes from the earth, as means of it's own growth, it is just so much taken from the nutriment of the neighboring plants.- Nor is this all They draw that moisture from the soil, which the cultivated article needs-especially in dry weather.

 But t',r injury from weeds at any season ot the year does not relate alone to the pr!n. clplcs of exhaustion and overshadowng.- They all have great notion to propagate their kind. Ifallowed 10 grow, depend upon 1t, each one will multiply in fearful propor- tion. The true way to get rid of weeds next year, IS if E, ESsnt to fffe very freezing up tl,rAr nR wife's parlor floor. Do this-allow not one to go to seed-and then, if you are careful to enrich your garden with old thoroughly rotted manure-our word for ii, you will eX- perience but little trouble from WeedS-of which there will be very few indeed, ex- cepting such as shall spring from seeds which may have ripened on the adjacent grounds of less careful and faithful neigh bor, and been blown by the wind on your premises. We repeat. watch for weeds now as diligently us in the sr:ing, and aoate not this care till the season is too far advanced for any thing, even weeds to grow.

 MARRIAGE-One of the most remarkable features of this extraordinary institution is the successive changes it undergoes in the course of it's history. When the young hus- band and wife first enter upon the new rela- tion, how little do they foresee what IS be- fore them. As they take possession, for the first time, of their new house, and enjoy it's cheering aspect, it's regularity and quiet, and it's expression of domestic peace and joy, how little do they anticipate the trials and vicissitudes, the deep and yet unseen foun- tains of joy and. sorrow, which lie in their way In few years how changed! One after another has been added in various ways to the company which began only with two, until, at length, they find themselves presl. ding over q numerous circle of children, and relatives, and domestics; the father and from which they would have altogether shrunk had they anticipated them at the be- ginning. In few years this happy circle must be broken in upon and scattered- Death comes and makes one and another his prey ; others gradually arrive at maturity. and leave their fathers roof 10 seek other homes, and to return no more tn the ark which sheltered them at first; and, at last, the father and mother arc left alone to spend their declining years at their solitary tireside, to look back on scenes of activity, and trial, and enjoyment which can never return. Such is the outline of thousands of families.
