FEHO THE LADIES.-THE GEN
~ UINE BALM OF COLUMBIA,

FOR RESTORING THE HAIR.
"Long hair is a glory TO a woman,n says Paul,
And all feel the truth OF the pious quotation
Preserve it then, ladies, your glory may fall,
Unless you protect it with this preparation.
II you wish rich, luxuriaut head of hair,
free from dandrutf and scurf do not fail TO pro-
cure the genuine Balm of Columbia. In eases
OF badness, it viii more than exceed your ex-
pec,ations. Many who have lost their hair
for twenty years have had 1t restored to its
original perfection by the use Of this Balm
Age, state, or condition, appears to be no OBJ
Stacle whatever: it also causes the fluid to
flow with which the delicate hair tubes is fill
ed, by which means thousands (whose hair
was as grey rs the Asiatic eaglel have had
their hair restored TO its natural color by this
invaluable remedy In all cases of fever it
will be found the most pleasant wash that can
be used. A few applications only are neces-
sary to keep the hair from falling out, Ii
strengthens the roots, il never fails TO impart
a rich glossy appearance, and as perfume
for the toilet it is unequalled. 1t holds three
times as much as other miscalled hair restora-
tive, and is more etiectual.

ofscrecning his conduct from public censure
busted themselves in circulating in private
quaHer., that the charge was false. To their
confusion. utter and complete, Gen. Foote
acknowledged, in his speech here on Satur-
day, that he had not only given this vote,
bl,t that he tooutd do so again.
He assigned as reason FOR II, that be

to pay $4,000 to every Struggling Turk
who comes among rs. in order to cultivate
his friendship, taxation must soon be resor.
ted TO, or our treasury will bP bankrupt.
Gen Foote did not state the whole of his
object in giving this vote. There is beyond
doubt a negotiation going on between the
foreign bond-hoIders OF the old Union bank
and the leaders Of the whig party, which is
to result in the raising of S2O,O0O,OO0, by
taxation, to pay those creditors, in ease Of
Foote'S election. Robt j. Waiker-who,
vike Gen. Foote and John D. Freeman,--is
fond off fat fee, is now in Europe partly on
a secret mission, which many believe is to
pander to the hopes of the bond.hoders.-
Two years ago, when Col JEFF. Davis defen-
ded Mississippi, in the U. S. Senate, against
the calumniations of the London press, and
defined the true position our state occupied
upon the bond question, Gen Foote amused
himself with the manly aud dgnifed Office
OF making mouths at him; and Foote has
even Dragged that r. ]. Walker and him
self wrote the severe and scurrilous criticism
'fCol. Davis speech, which appeared in The
London Times.
Gen Foote says he was opposed to the
payment Of the Union bonds. He stands
lpon as many sides Of this question as he
loes upon all others. lie was for the pay.

Mai. Jas. s.. Rollins.

The last Columbia Statesman, contains q
long letter from the gentleman whose name
heads this article, in answer to an anony-
nous article or articles which have been
published in the Metropolitan, touching a
letter which he is said to have written to Col.
Benton, during that gentleman's tour through
our State, last year, The attacks made
upon him by democrats, and a fer diSafec-
ted whigS," in reference to this letter, indu-
ced him to reply at length, giving his rea-
sons why he preferred Benton to any of his
disunion opponents, and would have voted
for him, if contest had been between dem
ocrats. But as between Benton aud an un-
tainted Wing, his duty and inclination would
have forced him to discard Benton with the
same promptness he would have discarded
disunonist for Benton. The letter contains
some interesting facts, which we may here
after allude to, as the wooing days progress
with the two factions meantime, we may
remark, that any one who knows Major
ROLLINS, and more especially his political
friends-feel no uneasiness at what he may
have done, or will do; and all the slander
that unprincipled and perjured locotocos, and
traitor wings can heap upon him, will cn'y
increase his stature in the estimation of those
whose good will any honest man would covet.

The Model Candidate.

The Jefferson Inquirer closes long arti-
Gle on the subject of the Presidency, with
the following description Of the kind of a
candidate which should be selected. Do not
stopto think that the Inquirer is one Of the
papers that is ever charging the wings with
running available canddates-with adopt
ing the "mum' policy-with seeking to get
into power under the guise of a ''union par
ty," &c.--we say do not think Of this, or
you will spoil the joke
'Let us have new man, one who has not
been engaged in the heated controversy
through which the country has just passed,
one for whom all may vote without having
TO take back any thing, one against whom
there are no existing prcjudices, growing out
of controversy which in its effects is to
give direction and success in the Presiden-
tial election. Give us candidate against
whom neither the north nor the south can
bring any change of direliction of duty 10
their interests: one who stands as living
monument and advocate Of the rights Of the
States--of the federal union, and the consti-
tution-against the assaults of the enemies
Of each, let them be either in the north or
the south, and then we may with confidence
emblazon on our banner, in advance, the
cheering motto Of VIcToRY, even before the
day of election comes"
we should think John Van Buren, would
suit the Inquirer, exactly; he was not en-
gagged in the cheated controversy"--is some
on the "rights of the States'-and death on
the'constitution.' Besides he is a consulnmate
tactician, having managed to unite the free
soil and democratic parties OF New York so
thoroughly and perfectly, that the closest OBJ
server would pronounce them zone and the
same nigger."
However, there may be some objection
TO John, because he bears tie name ofhis l.
lustrious sire, and if so, the Inquirer can Just
as readily find a candidate to fit his platform
among the fre-eating disunionists of South
Carolina-for they know all about the rights
of tho States" ''the Union" and ''the con-
stitution."

ST. CLAIR.-We have the most cheering
accounts of the prospects of democracy in
this county Oar information is to the effect
that the democrats are tired of wrangling, and
heartily desire to unite upon the old basis Of
democracy, to fight for principles not men.
They regard Col. Benton as out of the ques-
ton now, and can see no reason for keeping
up an agitation about him. We trust this
feeling is becoming general among the peo-
ple.-LeringtOn Chronicle.
We don't know where the Chronicle got
its information. The prospects of Demo-

was long time ago!' We have noticed no
