We understand tina. a young man is
speech, purporting to be an
historical sketch of the Hawkeye. He
designs to enlighten those VIII are as ia
miliar with our course as he can be.
Well, let them go ahead. This is but a
new mode Of annoyance used by our enc
mics to curtail our circulation, which will
eventuate as all others have done much
to our advantage. It must be a queer
speech, and if we are at all comically
disposed at the time Of its delivery, we
shall try and hear it.

OF all the remedies ever devised for the
preservation and restoration Of the Hair. none
has been found equal to JAYsEs HAIR Tonic.
Indeed, it has proved itself 80 be ;ntahbie IN
preventing the hair from falling off and will,
positively by faithful application, in nineteen
cases out of every tscenty, bring out new
and beautiful head OF hair. There is therefore,
now, NO EXCUSE FOR BALD HEAD.
From the Philddclph,a Saturday Erening Post,
of Sept. It'll, 1899.
HAIR ToN,c.-We call the attention Of
those afflicted with premature badness, TO
the excellent "Hair Tonic" prepared by DR.
Jayne of this city. Having used II ourselves,
we can speak of its virtues by experience, and
we unhesitatingly pronounce It an invaluable
remedy to prevent the falling off Of the hair,
and to restore it from dead, to fine,
healthy appearance. We can also speak from
personal knowledge of the cases Of two or three
friends who were predisposed to badness, who
by the use of Jayne's Hair Tonic, have now
luxuriant hair. We have no disposition to
puff, indiscriminately all kinds Of remedies,
fer all diseases which flesh ia heir to, but
when we have testeG the virtue of an article,
we are free to say it is good.

The late Rev. Dr., of certain
town in Maine, an eccentric but honest
minister, was once preaching on the
practical virtues, and having short time
previously bought load Of wood of one
of the officers of the church, and finding
it fall short in measure, took this occasion
to speak thus plain on the subject-"Any
man that will sell seven feet of wood for
a cord, is no Christian, whether he sits
in the gallery, below, or even in the dea-
cons seat!'
Speaking of the too prevalent practice
of betting on elections, the old N. II.
Gazette says:-"we advise no man to
bet on either side. We don't like the
principle. Elections ought not to be mo-
ney making or money losing concerns.
They concern our nearest and dearest
rights and privileges and our dear bought
liberties, which should not be debased by
such practices. The high moral and
patriotic feeling that ought to stimulate
US on these occasions, ought not to be
accompanied with that sort Of speculative
gambling spirit which waits the hazard
of DIE"

HON. JOHN C. CLARK.

We rejoice that this faithful and active repre-
sentative is triumphantly returned again to Con
gress. Desperate has been the conflict in his
District, but the more glorious the victory The
feelings of the federal loco focos in regard to Mr.
Clark have been barbed with especial bitterness
| and hatred. He has been fearless and trou-
blesome opponent. To defeat him was an inn
portant object, and they would have exulted
over his prostraton, more than over the capture
Of one Of the smaller States So great were
their exertions, so strong their wish, that they
even prematurely circulated rumor in Albany
| and New York that their labor of love was ac-
complished. But they were as wide Of their
reckoning, as when the federal loco foco news
papers began TO congratulate themselves that
the billows" loco focosm had sent up from
Long Island SounI, had overwhelmed the elton
of the West" John c. Clark is elected by a
majority of 225.
The Chenango Telegraph thus speaks of this
result:
"CLARK-the noble, and patriotic CLARK is sustain
ed In obedience to the mandate from the White
House-by the of funds for corrupt purposes from
principally upon representative, relying upon the
basest means and paying thirty forty dollars for
vote to cheat of the services of one who in the
discharge Of his official duties has rendered himself
especially obnoxious to the office holders Washing
ton But the poisoned shafts have sped to effect.
He is too dear in the hearts of his countrymen !" he
has rendered too much service in the Council of the
Nation, to remain unprotected and unsustaned in the
hour of trial and conflict defender of the interests
of his constituents and champion of the constitution
and laws he has received from his friends and fellow
citizens evidence of fidelity equal to his own, which
cannot but be gratifying to the patriot aborng under
pure and disinterested motives.
majority 225 at the present time and under the
circumstances, is decidedly and unequyocally, the
greatest victory achieved by the invincibe,
wavering electors Of the county. While we write,
more than thousand freemen collected, rejoic
ing over the triumph Professions attended by music,
with banners floating are forming! Huzzas and Tip
pecanoe songs make vocal, while bonfrcs ilumine the
heavens The lannon's procaims that all is joy
-hilarty and good feeling"

ONE TERM.

We are not among those who would lightly
touch that sacred charter-THE CONSTITUTION
OF THE UNITED STATES. We would not APP
proach it with any froward feeling, or in any
frame of mind, but that of unfeigned and pro-
found reverence. We should regard that man
as bold, indeed, who would not have some diff
dence in attempting to take from or add 10 an
instrument produced by men whose enlightened
wisdom and genuine patriotism are hallowed to
the memories of all true Americans, and which
won the admiration and respect ofthe wisest and
best in all countries. Yet il must be admitted that
the history of the last few years, and especially
of the great contest which is now closed, has
shown the necessity Of adopting an amendment
requiring that the President shall hold his Office
but for one term, and shall be ineligible there
after Mr.. TALLMADGE presented resolution to
that effect on the 3lst Of January, 1889, in the
United States Senate.

temen, am able to inform the Globe and it, readers,
that Nathan Webster ia not relative of Hon.
Daniel Webster, and is probably wholly unknown to
him, and further, that this Nathan Webster is
tive member of the Globe party, and advocates the de-
structive measures of Walker, Buchanan, and Tap

Federalist until about 1888, when the Morton party
having obtained majority in Haverhill he went over

We deem II unnecessary to republish our ia
bles of the votes of the several counties until the
official returns are all in. We issued an extra
on Saturday evening, in which we claimed a
majority for Gen Harrison, in Pennsylvania, of
232. This will probably not vary much from
the official returns. A friend at Philadelphia
informs us that nobody doubts that Harrison has
received majority of the votes, but that some
returns not yet officially reported, which, il
poses. We are glad 10 learn, however, that our
friends have taken efiectua steps to expose any
villainy the Van Buren, judges may attempt.
