Prof. Wood-Dear Sir: My hair had, for sever
al years, been becoming prematurely gray, accom-
panied by a harshness which rendered the constant
application of oil necessary in dressing it. When
l commenced using your Hair Restorative, about
two months ago, it was in that condition and
having continued its use till within the last three
weeks, it has turned to its natural color, and as
sumed a %softness and lustre g~reatlyto be preferred
to those produced by the application of oils or any
other preparation I have ever used. I regard it as
an indispensable article for every lady's toilet,
whether to be used as a Hair Restorative, or for
the simple purpose of dressing or identifying the
hair. You have permission to refer to me all who
entertain any doubt of its performing all that its
claimed for it. MRS. C. SYMONDS,

4 vile, Immediately on the Wilmington &

pose of promoting the educational interest of
the State, and our own County in particu-

expense In erecting a suitable building
for school purposes having regard, both to
the health and convenience Of the pupils,
as also, to whatever may be conducive to
their mental and physical Improvement. In
fine, we feel assured that but few schools in
our State. highly favored as she is, can offer
superior inducements to those Of the CLASH
cal and mathematical Seminary of this place.
We hope and do expect largely to share the
public patronage.
Stricklandsyille is one of the healthiest
villages IN the eastern portion of the State,
and presents but few inducements to affect
the morals of the pupils. The students viii
be at liberty to attend either of the Churches
in the village or neighborhood.
The Trustees have placed the Seminary
under the control Of E. w. Adams, A. NJ, q
teacher of much experience and success, who
in addition to his several diplomas, bring,
from gentlemen of the highest literary stan
ding, in this State and Virginia, the mos

For the Spirit Of the Age.

Lines
IN the death Of a young lady, who, just be-
fore her death, called her aged parents to
her bedside, and requested them not to
weep for her, for her spirit would soon be
az rest with God.
ny @. S. b.. H..
The weary night wore slowly on,
Grim death had set his seal on one
who feared not the approaching hour
When she must grapple with his power.
Tho rosy morning came at last,
Her feeble breath came short and fast,
Deep grew the hectic on her cheek,
Her voice grew tremulons and weak.
The aged sire beside the bed,
Weeping bowed his hoary head;
Der the couch the mother hung
10 catch the accents from her tongue.
They came ut length in accents wild:
Fond parents weep not for your child,
Soon shall my spirit be at rest,
No more by worldly cares oppressed.
Father, mother, brothers dear,
Shed not for me n single tear,
When thou art called from earth away,
Meet me in realms Of endless day.
She calmly, sweetly sunk to rest
Upon her dear Redeemer's breast
She heaved not forth a groan or sigh,
But died as only Christians die.

that my hair was, a few months ago, very gray,
