From the Boston Chronicle, Jan, 10.

From the Boston Chronicle, Jan, TO-
wv Z see by an advertisement in another
w column that Messrs. Comstock g. Co.,
the American agents for Odridge's Balm of
Columbia, have deputies to sell that article
in Boston and elsewhere. We know lady
in the in this city whose hair was so nearly
gone as to sxpose entirely her chronological
develoyements, which, considering that they
betokened most amiable disposition. was
not, in reality. very unfortunate. Negerthe-
less she mourned the loss of locks that she
had worn. and. after years frui;ess resort
to miscalled rostoratives, purchased, some
months ago bottle Of or two, of Oldridge's
Balm, and she has now ring lets in rich profu-
sion, glossy, and of raven blackness. We are
not putiing-none of the commodity has been
sent US, and, indeed, and We do not want any
for we have now, through its vi.ture, hair G.
enough, and of passble quality, of our own.
DARING FRAUD.
The Balm of Columbia has been initiated bv
a notorious counterfeiter. Let it never be
purchased or used unless it have the name Of
l.. s. Comstock ,or the signature of Comstock
& Co. on splendid wrapper. This is the on.
lily external test that will secure the public from
deception.

bold, ingenious, and fascinating. His dction is
elegant, his reasoning conclusive, his arguments un-
answerabe, and his manner Of enforcing them so
plain and so interesting, that he conducts you at
once (by chain of reasoning perfectly Ineligible
to ally through the labyrinths and ntrcaces Of this
TO almost alp mysterious subject, tears away the
specious but aimsy covering from the "tarif for
tie protection Of home industry" and exposes all its
hideous deformities. He explains the 'nodus oper-

the different sorts of tariffs and their ultimate OBJ
jecs and effects, in lucid and convincing manner,
which peculiarly adnpts them to those Of our fellow

ten, which thus far distinguish them.

loud in their clamors for the protection of manuac-

SIR have reflected good deal upon the invita-

for carrying the mails Of the United States to Eu-

Indeed no country on the continent Of Europe il

perfect railroads, which not upon paper, but COM
pleted, everybody knows that there 10 line from
Ostend, on the German OCEAN, and from Antwerp,
on the Scheldt, direct TO Cologne, on the Rhine;
and that two branches reach the frontiers OF France
-one at Valenciennes, and the other at Lille.
Letters arriying in Belgium can now be transmit-
ted to Rotterdam and Cologne in less than twelve
hours; to London in fifteen, by daily packets; and
to Paris IN nineteen. When the railroad TO the
capital OF France shall be finished, it will take if
teen hours
Before the end Of this year, another railroad will
be opened between Cologne and Mnden. From
this place Il will be soon finished to Hanover, and
from Hanover 70 Berlin thers is already an unncr-
rupied line, IN full activity. g t-
No country, therefore, presents the same exped-
non and central advantages not to speak Of the en-
Iighiened and liberal government Of Belgium, which
