DRoFEssOR ALEXANDER Q. BARRf's

PROFESSOR ALEXANDER G. BARRY'S
Il TRICOPHEROUS, or Medicated Compound, for
beautifylng, curling, preserving, restoring and
rengthening the Hair, relieving diseases OF the
skin, curing rheumatic pains and healing external
wounds Bounded by no geographical lines, the
reputation of Barry's Trcopherous pervades the
Union. TIE sales ofthe article OF late years have
increased in ratio that almost exceeds belief.
Professor Barry after careful examination OF h's
sales book, finds that the number OF bottles de.
ivered to order, in quantities OF from halfa gross
upward, during the year 1852, was within tribe
of csc, 900.
1t is unnecessary to present at length the evi-
dences of the wonderful properties OF the Trico-
pberous when the public have furnished such an
endorsement as this. The cheapness OF the article,
and the explanations given OF it's chemical action
upon the hair, the scalp, and in all cases OF
| superficial irritation, first recommended IL 10
the attention of the people. This was all that
the Inventor desired. Every bottle advertised
| itself, The effects of the fluid exceeded expec.
tation. II acted like charm. The ladies would
not be without it Country dealers in every
section of the United States found they must
have it: and thus was built up wholesale
trade of an extent hitherto unheard OF as regards
articles of this kind The highest point has not
vet been reached and il is believed that the sales
this year will be million and hall OF bottles.

annual caravan from Red river reached this place
last evening. Our old townsman, Charles Gava-
lier, ESQ.,, late collector of Pembina, one of
the train, and to him we indebted for the fol-
lowing details: D
The caravan consists of one hundred and thirty
three carts, thirtytwo of which belong to the Sell
kirk settlement the British side of the line and
the balance to Messrs. Kttson, Rolette, Gingras,
Cavilier, and others residing at Grand Cote, Penn
bina, &C., ON the American side. They left
Grand Cote on the 18th day of June, and reached
Traverse des Sioux on the Minnesota river, on
Sunday last, having occupied thirty-two days in
making the trip. From Traverse des Sioux they
came down on board the Clarion. On the route
they saw great many buffalo, and killed as many
as they needed They crossed Governor Stevens's
trail en- route, and fell in with portion of his
party. The Governor was progressing slowly,
owing to the bad condition of his teams; and it
was thought that, unless the hunters were success
full, the party would soon incur scarcity of pro-
visions. ~ gf
The traders and hunters at Red river have been
unusually successful during the past season. The
caravan brings some six hundred bales of furs and
skins, and were obliged to leave large quantity
behind.
Rt. Rev. Provoncier, the Catholic Bishop at
Red river, died a few days before the train left.
The business at Red river, on the American
side of the line, is mostly being concentrated at
Grand Cote, about thirty miles west of the old
settlement of Pembina, and four or five miles south
of the British line; and Mr. G. thinks that it will
finally absorb the greater part of the settlers
the British side The residents there have en-
gagged quite extensively in farming, and the soil is
found to be exceedingly productive. Mr.. Cavi-
lier intends to return with the train, which starts
in the course of ten or twelve days, and engage in
the rearing of stock at Grand Cote.

STATISTICS OF EMIGRATION.-The annual re-
port of the Colonial Land and Emigration Com
missioners presented to Parliament, has Just been
printed Since the conclusion of the war, thirty
eight years ago, there have left this country
lass, 1922 emigrants, of whom l,791, 446-more
than one-hal-have emigrated in the six years
commencing with 1847. 1t seems that the ave-
rage annual emigration during the last six years
has been 298, 584, and that the number who left
the United Kingdom in 1882 was 368,7 being
23a per cent above the average, and 81 per cent.
above the emigration of 1851, the largest that had
before occurred. The commissioners remark that
the great bulk of the emigration from the United
Kingdom has for many years consisted of Irish,
and in the last six years the number was about
,313, 226. In 1852 the emigration to Australia
was 81 1881, of which SO ,527 was spontaneous and
34,354 was by the government. For the first
quarter Of the present year emigration has de-
creased. The commissioners conclude by observ
ing that they regard the decrease in the emigra-
ton as proof that the aboring classes ofthe Uni
ted Kingdom, and especially of Ireland, are in a
state of unusual comfort and prosperity. It would
be beyond their province to speculate on the con-
tinuance of this state; but far it is possible to
judge from present appearances, it seems not un-
reasonable, looking at the vast contracts for pub
lie works in all parts of the world which have
been recently taken by English contractors, to
expect that the condition of the laboring classes
in this country will continue to improve, and that
either at home or in the most accessible of the
British colonies an ample field and full remune-
ration will be found for their services.

A Town FOR BUILDING Misunderstanding
Quincy aside, and there is no town in the State, if
| in the Union, that furnishes such immense
quantity of substantial building material as Som
erville, lying only two miles northwest from our
metropolis. The lowest lands of the town
almost literally covered with excellent clay for
brick making, while the several noble hills, hich
have rendered the locality so famous, all contain
extensive lodges of valuable sort of slate-stone
for various building purposes The Boston Brick
Company are operating there heavy scale,
with the newest improved machinery, having in
vested capital of 100000. There are also more
than dozen other individuals and firms engaged
in the brck-rnaking business, the total yearly pro-
ceeds of which must amount to several hundred
thousand dollars.
At Taylors Ledge, the efficient manager, Mr..
Pollard is now turning out about 1850 tons of
stone per week, large proportion Of which is
used in building and in paving this city. This
ledge is probably the most profitable one in town.
It was first opened for the passage of the Lowell
Railroad, and has been constantly worked ever
since Danes and Adams s Lodges are also yield
ing more than usual the present season. Another
ledge is owned by the town, by means of which
the hill streets always kept in good condition.
