GA YOUNG GENTLEMAN, son of R NJ
Melgs, Esq, one of the oldest and most respecta
BILE citizens of Albany, lost his hair entirely. He
used one bottle of the true Balm Of Columbia,
from COMSTOCK d CO., and has head
completely covered with a full flowing crop of
hair that curls most beautifully. Think of this.
young men who worship long locks much, and
apply at No. 81 Courtland-st, where only the true
Bul>am may be had. The proprietors absolutely
forbid any statement of this kind ever to be made,
unless true 10 the letter. Facts are sufi 'iently
strong and abundant to our article not to require
the fictitious absurdities reEorted to b; others to
sustain them. We only appeal to the reason and
good sense of int lligent people, and want no pa
tronage from those who cannot appreciate truths,
or are so fanciful or false themselves that they
suspect any statement we nuke 10 partake of
their own character.-NeU World.
ETSEVERAL persons have been imposed upon
by miserable counterfeit of the article, and it
will be necessary in future to that the name of
COasToCK d Co. is on the bottle and that it is pro.

rheumatism, GOut, Contracted

Are prevalent and common diseases. The practi-
TONER of greatest skill, if honest, generally
shrinks in despair AT the prospect of governing
and Graduating these diseases. His remedies are
generally palliative, and the patient feels happy
at any relief from his torments IF his family
doctor gives him any hope of cure, it is at the
end of long course Of medicine that is to act
upon the system, or at the expense of drawing
from the arm his life's blood until, if cured, which
is by such means next to impossible, he ha not
enough of "lie left TO he worth living for" How
important then, that remedy to check, control,
and eradicate Rheumatism and Gout, to strengthen
and extend shrivelcd and knotty cords and mus
Giles, till nature and health again has sway and
control Such you may rely, is the effect of the
NERVE AND BONE EMINENT, AND IN
DIAN VEGETABLE ELIXIR sold by ComsTocK
81 Co., and true only when they have their fac
smile signature on them. How happy the dis.
covery that the Elixir Drops taken internally
operate specifically and directly upon the affected
parts, while the Liniment rubbed on externally
removes all soreness and pain, and renders the
patient at once comfortable and happy. few
cases cited below, which are fully witnessed and
authenticated, will do more than we can say TO
convince of the truth of this; but the use Of ii
once will dispel all doubt, and make the sufferer
its most efficient friend. 1t is the duty Of such
to recommend 1t to other sufferers. Will you do it!

HEADACHE.-Ths disease is one from which
arises more misery to the human family than is gem
orally supposed not being directly fatal it is often
neglected, or persons resort much to the use of
purgatives and other medicines, as to impair their
general health and often induce ia al diseases The
article, DR. SPonN's HEADACHE REMEDY, from Com
stock d Co., now altered seems to have overcome
these difficulties. While its effects are most DOW
erful and immediate in curing an attack or keeDIng
1t oil, 1t is 81 perfectly MILD AND INNOCENT as TO be
used for infants with the greatest effect and safety
This has now been tested by 50 many of the biuh-
est members OF this community, as to require no
further proof
eff taken a few times in as many hours, when
there are indications of an approaching attack, it
is sure an all cases to prevent the attack If used
for a few weeks, the premonitory symptoms grad.
uaily subsde, until they wholly disa ppear, and
never, without some great external or predispos-
ing cause, return. If the person neglects to use it
till the headache commences it sometimes cures
instantly, but at others the turns will have their
course for two or three times, and then wholly dis
appear"
This is a fair and candid statement of FACTS
that might be subsantated by the affidavits of
several hundred persons.

WEDNESDAY,, JANUARY |, lo4'

Petitions, &C., were presented and referred.
On motion of Mr.. Fulton of Wythe,
ResolUed, That the Committee on Courts,
Sc, enquire into the expediency of amending
the 18th section of the act in relation to ord-
naries and houses of private entertainment, so
as to provide more definite punishment for Of
fences enumerated in said section.
The Engrossed bill establishing the coun-
ty of -, of parts Of Harrison, Tyler, Rit-
chic and Lewis counties, was read third time
and passed, the blank in the title having been
filled with the word ''Doddridge," on motioy
of Mr.. Stephenson.
An engrossed bill, authorizing loan to the
Valley Turnpike Company, and giving the
States guarantee for the repayment of three
fifths thereof" was, on motion of Mr.. Street,
laid on the table, ayes SO, noes 43-said mo-
ton having been warmly resisted by Mr.. Den
ison.
An engrossed bill Incorporating the Presi-
dent and Directors of the Southwestern Turn
pike Road" was, on motion Of Mr.. Witcher,
laid upon the table.
A resolution from tho Committee on Courts,
&C., was agreed to; against the expediency of
amending the law regulating the proceeding in
cases Of prosecutions for misdemeanors.
Mr.. Jackson called up the resolutions offered
on the Goth inst by Mr.. Broadus Of Culpeper,
as follow:
|. Resolred, by the General assembly Of
Vngalia, That the time allowed to claimants
on the State of Virginia for revolutionary land
bounty to present the same for adjustment, by
joint resolution adopted February 4, 1912, be
extended from the first of March lS45, as fixed
in that resolution, to lst March, l847
2. Resolved, That the Register of the Land
Office Of Virginia is hereby instructed to pub
fish this resolution in such newspapers of this
State as have the most general circulation, for
the information of claimant
A long debate ensued. Messrs Jackson and
Witcher opposed the resolutions, as they
thought time enough had been allowed to ad-.
just these claims, and, if the time be extended,
it would enure mainly to the benefit of specu-
lators, and open the door to fraud.
Messrs. Stovall and Broadus of Culpeper
gave a history Of these claims, and urged the
justice Of the proposition. in the course Of his
remarks, Mr.. Stovall warmly repelled the as
saults Of Mr. Hall, member Of Congress from
Vermont, upon the character of Virginia.
Mr.. Taylor of Norfolk Borough thought more
time should be allowed.
Messrs. Cooke and Carson sustained the res
olutions and cited instances of just claims which
had not yet been adjusted.
The two resolutions were then adopted.
On motion Of Mr.. Payne, the House ad-
journed.

thorizing the clerk of the County Court of Bath
to deliver or send to the clerk of this House
the poll-book at the last spring election, for a
delegate to the General AsseInbly--to be used
in the contested election from that county.
Messrs. Witcher, Garnet, Cooke and Nc
Rea opposed the resolution, as the Clerk was
rod h,r1 Tho nrsn,pnl III -Sf,oE
in his Office The law provided that certi-

Messrs. Daniel Of Prince George and Leake
advocated the resolution, as it was importan,
to the decision of one particular vote, and the
House should have the original before them, to
do justice to the premises. 1t was, in many
cases usual to send for the originals of wills,
&C., to be used in evidence.

Mr. Van Buren, said that his only object was
to show that the name Of certain individual
was not on the original poll book and did not
appear to have been erased thercfrom
Mr.. Banks read, by way of argument, an
amendment, which he would offer when in or |
der, requiring the Clerk of Bath to certify |
whether the name Of William Irwin was on the
