HWORTH KNOWING. PROF Wood whose
advertisement will be found in another column,
has discovered remedy for the gray and bald,
which Is at once practicable and cheap. II re-
quires no dyeing, no wig, nor extraordinary trou-
BILE. There can be no doubt whatever of its eff
cacy. We have seen testimonials almost without
number, and from men Of great intelligence, high
standing and moral worth.
Those who have been bald for years are now
wearing their own hair, and appear ten years
younger than they did six months ago. As in
most cases gray hairs and bald heads are both pre-
mature and unnatural, it is duty to remedy them
BY the natural and undoubted means which Prof.
Wood has invented, and now kindly offers to the
afflicted Read his advertisement, try his wonder

Hox. JACOB BRooA.--We were extremely graft
fed yesterday, by receiving call from the Hon.
Jacob Broom, Of the Fourth Congressional district,
who has been confined to his home for some weeks
past by severe illness. Mr.. Broom, during the
late session Of Congress, was distinguished for
great industry and attention TO the interests of his
constituents, who win all be glad 70 hear of his re-
covery. As . representative Of the true American
sentiment Of the country be was unwavering, and
in the performance Of his duties to bis constituents
he Is unfaltering. We trust that few days will
suffice to give Mr.. Broom sufficient strength to en-
able him TO take the stump in the cause Of our gal
liant standard-besrer, where his services win not
only be appreciated but be productive of the best
results.
We copy the above from the Philadelphia
News, to add the expression of our gratifica-
ton on learning that Mr. Broom has recovered
from his late indisposition, and to bear our tes-
tmony not only to the industry and ability
which he manifested in the discharge Of his
duties in Congress, but to his conservatism and
nationality as an American.
Without interfering with the right of the
Convention which nominated another gentle
man in his stead, a the candidate Of the Amer
lean party Of his district for Congress, we may
be permitted to express our profound regret,
that gentleman of his distinguished ability
and long devotion to the cause Of Americanism
should be laid aside for new man, and espe-
cially in the present condition Of the contest
with foreignism. Mr.. Broom is one Of the
"old guard "-one who espoused Americanism
when it required more Of sacrifice, more Of
danger, and more of nerve, to avow himself an
advocate Of this reform, than is required noso,
that our party has power, strength and popu-
larity. We are wholly at loss to conjecture
the ground on which such a proceeding can be
defended. Mr.. Broom has been identified with
the American cause for more than dozen
years, and he has national reputation which
his successor may well covet

Fashionable Lace Wells.

The Empress of France, herself splendid
woman, sets the ladies of fashion all in fever
when she appears with any new article of dress
or ornament. The correspondent of the New
York Journal Of Commerce gives the following
as specimen: taa
The Empress fournisseur of lace has lately
manufactured, expressly for her, a small black
aud white lace veil which consequently has
become all the vogue. The veil is very small.
and with rounded corners; the centre is covered
with small dots or sprigs the border is a
wreath or a Vandyked pattern, two or three
inches deep: these wells are prettier and more
becoming than the heavily worked chantilly
falls, which overload the bonnets when raised,
and quite conceal the face when dropped.
Necklaces are again worn, and are endless in
variety and beauty. Strands Of diamonds and
pearls, or fine gold chains formiog festoons by
clasps Of precious stones"
