LETTER FROM NEW YORK
Home for Working Women—The Gospel
Afloat—The Chamber of Commerce—
Base Ball—Baeing News—Miscellaneous
Items.
[Correspondence of the Pittsburgh Gazette.]
Maw Yon r, April 4, 1808.
The boarder's at the Working Women's
Home gave a reception on Thursday evening
to their family friends and those of the Insti
tution. It was largely attended. There are .
now one hundred and fifty boarders in the
building, which is quite a goodly number,
considering the brief time the Home has
been estabiished. It will, however, accom
modate five hundred. Alibrary,comfortable
- dormitories, parlors and bath rooms, and
'good board and washing are furnished, and
• the inmates can have the freedom and com
forts of a well regulated family where 'the
— costs are such as may be met by the hum
bleat, toiling 'woman. This Home was'or
ganized as an experiment, and bids fairly
for success.
The semi'eentennial anniversary of the
New York Port Society for Promoting the
Gospel among Seamen was held recently.
In 'the address of the Hon. W.' E. Dodge,
the Chamber of Commerce was complimen
ted in its consideration of a plan for foand
ing a Normal School for the education of
Sailors. Sachs school is needed here
' and
under the auspices of the Chamber of Com
merce could hardly fail of a great success.
The sailor boy in such a school as the one
propose&could be educated to the full du
•• ties of a ship commander. The importance
of this project will immediately be recog
niied, when At is considered how large a
number of sailors find homes for their fami
lies in this city.
The centennial celebration of the organi—
' zation of the New York Chamber of Com
merce will take place on Monday evening
next, when addresses will be made by the
President, and by Messrs. Dow, Orxlyke,
Grinnell and Jonathan Sturgis. A . sketch
or' the history of the Chamber will be read
by the Secretary. Invitations to be present
have been extended to members of the
learned professions and to the heads of the
departments of the State and city.
The Union Base Ball Club of 3lorrisiana
—the champion of the United States—opened
the season on their ground at Melrose on
Wednesday, with a game between them
selves and the best field party which could
be made up from the spectators. The odds
of five outs was given the field party and
even then they 'were whipped. In a few
days the innumerable hosts of base ballists
will be in the midst of games.
At a recent meeting of the American
•
Jockey Club" measures were taken for the
establislunent 'of •"subscription-rooms," the
entrance fee to Which shall be from $lO to
/20,.and where a match book shall be kept
for the registration of all racing bets. These
will be known Its "The American Tatter
sail's Subscription Rooms," and will be gov
erned by nearly the same rules as those en
forced in the rooms of the Messrs. Tatter
sall, in London:. Pool selling is not to be
allowed here. At-thd next meeting of the
• Club the question comes up as to whether
• pool selling is to be again allowed in Jer
ome Park. It is to be hopedthat this swind
, ling pool selling system may be abolished
``;altogether. The Jockey till].) will have
their headquarters in' these subscription
• The anniversary of the fall of Richmond
was duly celebrated last evening, at Stein
way Hall, by Post Sedgwick, No. 11,
Grand Army of the Republic. The audi
ence was 'very large. Miss Clara Barton
delivered her lecture on the "Work and In
cidents of Army Lite." General Rush C.
„ Hawkins, made an address. The music
was very fine.
After public decency had been outraged
for many months by the display and
_sale
upon our streets of licentious illustrated
papers, and the patience of good 'citizens
had ,become well nigh exhausted at the
criminal tolerance of the authorities with
reprd to these vile sheets, it is most grati
fying to be able to chronicle the fact that
. yesterday the Superintendent of the Police
issued orders Tor the seizure of all copies of
the Illustrated Police News wherever exposed
for sale. The wholesale dealers, hearing of
this order, declined to sell any copies to the
news men, and sent the edition back to Bos
ton. This is well, but the authorities should
not stop with the licentious press of the
hub. Among the vilest of the vile papers
are those published in this city, and daily
exposed upon our streets. -
LETTER FROM ST. LOUIS
Growth of the City—What Is Needed.-An
Item for Water Street. •
ST. Louis, March M. 1868.
DEAR GazurTE. 7 -With thegenial weath
er.. of the past few - days, trade has looked up,
merchants' look happy, and the wharf is
lined with steamers filled with merchandise.
This beautiful and solid city is awaking
from the deathly lethargy of slavery, and
breaking the bonds with which its trade was
fettered - the- yearsy of martial law. To
quOte from the Demarrat (a good radical
sheet and the liveliest business paper here,)
in a recent trade editorial : " She realizes
the existenee of a village on Lake Michigan,
- of the'liveliest and trickiest, called Chicago,
and (retaining all the old sterling honor,
for which St. Louis is famous commercially)
is learning lessons in trade." . -
To be sure she has a good deal to learn.
It costs about fifty dollars (in the way of
- commissions,&c.) more to sell a car load of
wheat in St-Louis than in Chicago. To go
from here to any upp . er Mississippi point by
rail, you must take Ow:again your route; the
only 'Telegraph Company here (the Western
Union) charges four times as much from St.
Louis. -Rittsburgh as we pay from Pitts
burgh- to New York. But this is passing
away. St. Louis no longer relies inertly
and lazily upon her unparalleled natural
advantages as of yore, but is using railroads,
elevators and all the newest appliances of
trade freely, and the day dawns when, with
the new bridge, .a network of railways.
through:the Valley of the Father of Waters,
anftmore'telegraPli facilities, she will take
her proud place in the van of improvement's
marc h, completely divested of , the fOgyism
Which'now so - plaintively recalls my mem
ories- of Pittsburgh, Queen of fogy eities.
A atki, importations' of foreign corn.
moditieu, via New Orleans, are largely re
sumed;catoes of wheat are billed through
to Li*Opool,.as well as thousands of tons of
pig, iron and' Similar staples.
Tell Water street that 'Wheeling nails are

are better. - stronger, smoother• and in better

Bow to Judge Character by the Hair
arose the Secrets of Beauty.]
Coarse black hair and dark skin signify
great power of character, with a tendency to
sensuality. 'Fine hair and dark skin indi
cate strength of character, along with purity
awl goodness. Stiff, straight black hair and
baird indicates a coarse, strong, rigid,
straightforward character. Fine dark brown
hair signifies the combination of exquisite
sensibility with great force of character.
Flat, clinging, straight hair, a melancholy
but extremely constant character. Harsh,
upright hair is the sign of a reticent and sour
spirit, a stubborn and harsh character..
Coarse red hair and whiskers indicate pow
erful animal passions; together with a cor
responding strength of character. Auburn
liair, with florid countenance, denotes the
bighest order of sentiment and intensity of
feelinvpurity of character, with the highest
capaCity for enjoyment or suffering.
Straight, even, smoo.h and glossy hair de
notes strength, harmony and evenness of character, hearty affections, a clear head
and superior talents.
Fine, delicate, supple hair is the mark of a
delicate and sensitive temperament,. and
speaks in favor of the mind and Character of
the owner. Crisp, curly hair indicates a
hasty, somewhat impetuous and rash char'
aster. White hair•denotes a lymphatic and
indolent di:institution; and we may add that
besides these qualities there are chemical
properties residing in the coloring , matter of
the hair tube which undoubtedly have torde
effect upon the disposition. Thus red haired
people are notoriously passionate. Now,
red.hair is proved by analysis to contain a
large amount of sulphur, and very black is
colored with almost pure carbon. The pres
ence of these matters in the blood points to
peculiarities of temperament and feeling,
which are almost universally associatedwith
them. The very wdy in which the hair
flows is strongly indicative of the ruling
passions and inclinations, and perhaps a
clever person could give a shrewd guess at
the manner of a man or woman's disposition'
by only seeing the back of their heads.
A Parialah Aomance
A young married couple in Paris, ex
tremely wealthy and adoring one another,
after six months of rapture, found themselves
invalids. At first they concealed from each
other their sufferings, but their maladies con
tinued to increase. The physician who was
called in found that the pauvre et charmante
jeune femme bad symptoms of phthisis, while
the ,husband suffered from a complication of
disorders of the heart and blood. It was a
serious matter. The decision was that the
climate of the South was necessary for the
young wife; and thrd, of a colder climate for
the husband. The sun of Nice, orange
trees, and the blue Mediterranean for the
one, and long journeys through the snowy
plains, fiords, and mountains of Norway for
the other. Thus spoke the doctor
At immense expense the spirit of his de
cree was carried out, while its letter was
evaded. Two houses were built in Paris,
one of which was a miniature Siberia, full of
currents of air, ih every_xespect cold and,
dry, where, by dint-of taking violent exer
cise in every imaginable way, and harden
ing his system, the husband endeavored to
recover his health, While in The adjacent
building everything was warm, „luxurious,
soothing and tropical. This latter was the,
home of the young wife. The pair were
perfectly happy, living, as it were, a thou
sand miles apart—the one amid his frescoes,
representing icebergs and reindeer—the lady
in a constant scene of flowers and lemon
trees._ -
It would be pleasant to add that both re
covered, but such was unfortunately not the
'ease. This fairy life lasted three years,
when the one and the other died.. While
they lived they were, however, happy.
Kite Flying
The - India correspondent of the London
News, speaking of the town of Patna, says:
"Patna is famous for kites. Anybody de
sirous of making his fortune quickly,
should naturalize the Patna kite in England.
Every tentlyshop in the bazaar 'is a kite
shop, and you would think that the whole
population flies kites.' With them it is a
scientific amusement. The kite is diamond
shaped, and light as a feathtr. It has no
tail, and is flown to an almost incredible
height with the lightest possible silk cord or
thread. This thread is rubbed with pound
ed glass; and the science of kite flying con
'slats in artfully causing your kite to fall
across your antagonist's line,which being- so
prepared with glass, it cuts like a knife, and
then your antagonist's-kite flies away, and is
lost, and you win the wager dependent on
the match."---
