ANKRIcAs Ham REsroRArrvE.-We rarely
notice editorially any of the patent or copy
right claimants for public favor, but with plea
sure depart from our usual rule to speak of the
article named above. We really believe'that
it does all its discoverer claims for it-restores
hair to heads considered hopelessly bald. The
Pittsburgh Gazette says Of it:
AMERICAN HAIR RESTORATIVE vs.. B1pSEss.
One of the most important modern discoveries,
and one that has won considerable reputation
and has q collection Of evidence in its favor
hitherto not acquired by any other article for
the same purpose, namely, the restoring Of
hair on bald heads-is the preparation heading
this notice. The idea of producing a crop Of
new hair on heads that have been bald for
years, has, we are well aware, been often at
tempted, but we do not know Of any, unless a
few isolated cases, where success has attended
a remedy for that purpose. The American
Hair Restorative, undoubtedly, has list OF
respectable evidences in its favor; among them
clear and distinct cases of badness, of years
standing, certified to by persons who certainly
would not allow their names to be used in that
connection unless there was reality in it.
The Restorative is worthy Of the attention Of
those who are bald, and also of those who are
becoming so, as we are assured that it will
fasten the hair and prevent its falling off, and
we cannot doubt from the evidence in its favor,
that it will restore hair on bald heads in a ma
jOrity of cases. The individuals referred 70
in an advertisement in another part of this pa
per, are persons who would not lend Their
names to anything of this kind, unless it were
deserving it.

Dorse THINGS UP,IE A HUKHr.-At
about 2 o'clock IN the evening, Of the
I'd ult., trunk containing wearing aP-
parel was stolen from the Dennison
House, in Cincinnati. At ten O'Clock
the same evening the police arrested
the Mace brothers, two celebrated Wes-
tern thieves, on whom q portion Of the
articles were found. The next morning
they were brought before the Police
Judge, examined, held and committed
in default of bail. In the afternoon of
the same day bill was found against
them for robbery. The next morning
their trial came of before Judge Finn,
which resulted in conviction, and they
were sentenced to the penitentiary.-
This is hurrying up justice after fash
ion. The elder Mace, George, remark
ed at the conclusion, that be had no par
ticular objection to the verdict, but "the
indecent haste in which the matter was
carried through, was d-d outrage to
his personal feelings"

THE MAILs.-We have never at any
previous time suffered so much, OF
rather been imposed upon by contrac-
tors to such an extent, as during the
past few weeks. What IS the cause Of
it? Can it be that they are not reported
to the Department, or is it the fault Of
the Postmaster General not taking con.
nizance of the failures when reported tc
him. We do not get a mail from Chilli.
cothe scarce half the time when due.
With Locofoco Postmaster General, a
Locofoco mail contractor and Locofoco
Postmaster, our suferings are rendered
intolerable. Our citizens talk strongly
of petitioning Congress for an abate-
ment of the nuisance. We think the
sooner they take action the better.

delivery of the mails, both ways, al
Merate Of one hundred dollars per month,
provided that he shall be paid at the
rate of 100000 per year, if his trips
average one day less than the Panama
standard-S9OO,OOO, if they average
two days less-s3OO, 900, if three days
less, and so on at the rate of 100000
for each day gained, ten days less time
being the most rapid trips for which he
asks conditional rate of compensation.
His pay to be graduated on the average
duration of his trips for periods of three
months. And at the same time he
agrees that if any other parties shall
make better time then he, between New
