For Restoring Preserving and Beantitying the Hair.

THIS elegant preparation is an slfoctaal remedy for Baldness, or falling olfof the It prevents and completely eriidiuates Scarf and Dasidrulf, strengthens the Roots of the hair ; causes it to grow luxuriautly;gives itn rich, dark, soft and glossy appearance, and prevents it turning gray. The Hun-

urian Balm is a purely Vegetable com and, scion- warranted to contain none of those deleterious ingredients which prove so injurious to the hair. It act: directly upon the skin, cleansing and purifying it from all unhealthy sscrotions,thorsby removing and preventing the accumulation of scarf, diindrtif and other impuri- ties, which so frequently cause premature decay an loss of the hair.

'l'he Hungarian Balm is especially adapted to ladies‘ use; and those who have tried the various oleaginons mixtures, with no benefit. will aioscs discover the agreeable and beneficial olfocts produced by this pure and delicate preparation. Instead of matting and tingling the hair. (which is more or less pulled out in the process of combing, ) it leaves it free and clean ; remotes a naya I uioisture, and imparts a besutiliil dark -and y appearance.

Try it at once and you w be convinced of its supe- riority over all other I tbs liair. Much more might be said is vor ofthia insati-

THE ANGI10-SAXON RACE: 1'13 PROGRESS.

B a favoring coincidence, the general total’ of the American census taken ‘last year, has just been received, and we are enabled, in conjunction with the returns made on the {list of March for England, to measure the absolute progress of the Ahglo- Saxon race in its two grand divisions, and to compare the laws of their respective growths in relation to such other and to the rest of the world. It is estimated, includ- ing Ireland and the colonies, that there is ii. grand total of men sharing the same general tendencies of civilization of 56,- 000,000, from which is to be deducted the three millions of slaves in the United States, leaving a remainder of fifty-three millions, chiefly of Anglo-Saxon descent, and deeply impregnated with its sturdy qualities of heart and brain, as the representative of this advancing stoc .

wo centuries ago there were not quite three millions of this race on the face ofthe earth. There are a million more persons of Magyar descent, speaking the Magyar language, at the present moment in Europe, than were in Europe and America of this conquering and colonizing people in the time ofCromwell. ow vain, then, for men to talk of the political necessity for absorbing small tracts! Sixty years ago the Anglo-Saxon race id not exceed 17,000,000 in‘ Europe and America. At that time it was not numerically stronger than the Poles. Thirty years ago it counted only 34,000,000, and a fraction more than the population of Central Europe. In 1853!, it is ahead of every civilized race in the world. Of races lying within the zones of civilization, the Slaves alone are more numerous, counte by heads; but coin- parutivoly few of this plastic and submissive stock have yet escaped from the barburism of the dark ages. In wealth, energy, and cultivation, they are not to be compared with the Frank, the Teuton, and the Anglo- Snxon. Number is their only element of stren h.

Of all the races which are now striving for the mastery of the world, to impress on the future of societ and civilization the stamp of its own character and genius, to make its low, idiom, religion, manners,

vernment and opinion prevail, the Anglo- .axon is new unquestionably the most nu- merous, powerful and active. The day when it might possibly have been crushed, absorbed, or trampled out, like Hungary or Poland, stronger hordes, is gone forever. That it was possible at one time for this people to be subdued by violence, or fall a prey to the slower -agencies of decline, there can be little doubt. In 1630, the United Provinces seemed more likely to make is grand figure in the world's future history than England. Their wealth . acti- vity, and maritime power, weret s most imposing in Europe They had all the carrying trade of the West in their hands. Their language was spoken in every port. In the great Orient their empire was fixed and their influence paramount; England was then hardly known abroad. Hcr diflicult idiom grated on foreign ears, and her stormy coasts repelled the curiosity of more, cultivated travellers.

Had the thought of is day arriving when any single European language would be spoken by millions of persons scattered over the great continents o the earth. from New Zealand to the Hebrides, and from the Cape ofStor-ms to the Arctic Ocean occur- red to any speculative mind, Dutch or Eng- lish would probably have been the tongue to which he would have as ed the marvellous mission. Yet, Hol and has fallen nearly as much as the Saxon has risen in the scale of nations. Her idiom is now acquired b few. Her merchants conduct their correspondence and transact their business in French or in English. Even her writers have many ofthsm clothed their genius in a foreign garb. On t other hand, our literature and language have passed entirely out of this danger. Dutch, like Welsh, Flemish, Erse, Basque, and other idioms, is doomed to perish as an intellectual medium; but whatever may be the future changes of the world, the tongue of Shaka care and of Bacon is now too firmly roots ever to be torn away.

No longer content with more preservation, it aims at universal mastery. Gradually it is taking ossession of all the ports and coasts of t e world; isolating all rival idioms, shutting them u thorn intercourse with each other, making itself the channel of every communication. At a hundred points at once it plays the aggressor. It contends with S aniali on the frontiers of Mexico; drives ranch and Russian before it in Canada and in the Noflhem Archi-

la 0; supersedes Dutch at the Cape and ‘entail; elbows Greek and Italian in the Ionian lslarids; usur-pa the right of Arabia at Sues and Alaaaridria: maintains itsslf su rails 3 Liberia, Ho Ksak, and Jamaica and St. Helena; gills its way against ninltitndlssolts and var out ‘dialects in the Ins, in Central Asia- , lo,'.’sa lsltvlsr ill

Australia, and among the countless islands in the Eastern Seas. No other language is spreading in this way.—-French and

errnan find students among cultivated men, but English permanently destroys and supersedes the idiomo with which it comes in contact.

The relative growth of the two great Anglo-Saxon States is noteworthy. In lS0l, the population of Great Britain was lO,9~t2,646; in I800, that of the United States was 5,3l9,762, or not quite half. In 1850, the population of the United States was two millions and a third more than that of Great Britain in I851; moment it robably exceeds it by millions. he rate of decennial increase in this country is less than 13 per cent., while in America it is about 35 per cent. In the great Continental States, the rate is considerably lower than in England. Accordin to the progress ofthe last filly years in rance and in America, the Unit- ed States will have the larger population

in 1870; in I900, they will exceed those of

England, France, Spain, Portugal, Den- mark, Sweden, and Switzerland combined. Prudent statesmen should bear these facts in mind. Many persons, now alive, may see the time when America will be of more importance to us, socially, commercially, and politically, than all Europe put toge- ther. Old diplomaticlraditions will go for little in the face of a Transatlantic power numbering l00,000,000 of free and ener- getic men of our own race and blood.

VOLCANOESI THEIR. CAUSES.

The general theory embraced by some lending men ofscience,(suys the Scientific American.) in reference to the cause of volcanoes. is, that they are the smoke-pipes of the great fire in the interior of this earth. They believe that we live on the top ofa huge white-hot cauldron, and that volcanoes in different parts of the world are merely vents of this internal fire. The following are the views of Prof. Siliman, of Yale College, on the subject, embraced in a lecture recently delivered in New-York city.

“ Thointernsl heat of the earth is proved by direct experiments. entleman is still living in Paris, who first called the attention of geologists and philosophers to this subject. He was one of the scientific men who accompanied Napoleon to Egypt, when he went on that expedition-—for Napoleon took with him not only the weapons of war, but he took a much more important cohort —that is. men of science, and art, and literature, able to explore and examine all the antiquities of that most important and venerable country. A great literary work resulted from this expe. dition, which proved to the world that the interior of the earth was in a heated state. bringing to- gether facts already known, in regard to mines and springs. This general principle announced, has been followed up re estedly by deep borings, called arteaian wells. he very deep well in Paris had been worked upon for seven years, without reaching water, when Arago came forward, and gave the Government assurance that if they would continue the work and go through the beds of chalk. they would. in all prolhbility, find water. They continued their work till they got through the chalk, when the water rose up in a great volume of twelve feet. This water still flows there, and doubtless will continue to flow till the end of time. This water was, likewise, found to be very hot. Many other arteaian wells have been made all over Europe, for various put a, and the uniform result has been. that we rid the earth increasing in heat the lower we go down. Add to this the testimony

ofthnse who work in very deep mines, and we .

not-ertain the facttliat the rate of heat increases about one degree for every fifty feet of descent; so that ifwe were to go down two miles, we should find boiling water, and at ten miles we might reasonably expect to llnd ignited rocks. is all, then, beneath us on fire! lam not prepared to say, with some, that this is the case, although there is strong evidence to yustify such a theory. Witness the Geyser: of Ice and; where hot waters are gushing up from the earth age after age and century after century. The result of all obser- vation os rings oss to show that they are thermal—that is, of a higher temperature. The Azores present a very important fact in example. The hot springs of Locos. in the Appenine Moun- tains, are large spouting springs, of a high temperature. so copious that they may be reli- ed upon for hot baths all the year round. n- other case is the hot springs of Bath, in England. These are the more remarkable, as there are no volcanoes in the British Islands. We know that, from the time nfthe Romans, these waters have never ceased to gush up in vast abundance.

“ The hot springs of the Rocky Mountains are also very important, and the [teat Salt Lake in Vinrinip is very hot. Taking the arteaian wells and the thermal, we have from these sources the best evidence of the heated temperature of the Internal portion of the earth, and this is placed beyond all question; by the great volcanoes in the world. And here we have decisive evidence that the heat which will rush the solid rock is not connected with any external cause ; for among the cold, icy mounttlhs, there are vol- sanoss bursting up to the height of 19,000 fast.

"In Spain and South America we find areal volcanoes bursting oat. ; fast la. the world is on live. It was kisdlsd at the time of its creation, and has been burning svu silos.”

Dr. Autiaol, of New-York, recently delivered a lecture. in which the same views ass developed; as lie srnsvacss tho slsotrisal theory, liaoarisinly tullttstos against the nsbstarflssry. lstti sgvas ssioilislniarssllioaiiasissly, iii as live as the to do mains»
