To THE MILLIoN.--Prof. Wood, Of
st. Louis, has, after years of deep study
and untiring research, succeeded in pre-.
senting to the public an article superior
to any now in use, and indeed it is truly
a wonderful discovery-we advert to his
Hair Restorative; the only article that
has been completely successful in cheat
ing age OF his gray locks, removing
dandruff, itching, scrofula, &c. 1t re-
stores the gray-headed to more than the
original beauty adds new lustre to
locks already luxuriant; having the eff
feet on coarse, harsh hair to render it
glossy and wavy fastens permanently
hair that is loose or falling, and many
other qualities which will become known
as soon as used.
The pride of mankind is singulraly
developed in the keeping and arrange
meuts of the hair; perhaps from the fact
that it is the only portion of the human
body that we can train in any way we
choose; howimportant then, having
this portion left to our care, that we
should use all themcans science has
placed in our handsto render itbeauti,
full and permanent.-If you would have
beautiful hair, glossy hair, hair with it's
natural color elegantly preserved to ex-
treme old age, don't fail to purchase
Woods Hair Restorative .-Daiky LorOa

Il. PAYNE.

The position of this gentleman has
been misunderstood by some of the radi-
cal Democracy of Ohio. Twenty years
ago, in the heat of the struggle for a di-
yorce of the finances of the Federal
Government from the Banks, and when
the entire moneyed power of the country
was combined to crush that great Demo
cratic measure, Mr.. PAYNE appeared be-
fore q G~onVention of the Democracy OF
Cuyahoga, and in a speech in which the
whole proposition was thoroughly analy-
zed and explained, lone more, probably,
to strengthen tho hands of our friends
on the Western Reserve, and thus enable
them to make their labors effective in
that terrible contest, than was accom-
plished by any other man in Cuyahoga
county. Had he have been q member
of the General Assembly, he would have
given a cordial and efficient support
to the Treasury bill of Maj. ATKINSON.
He cheered OF the Mayor, as an out
slider, by his words and labors. "Honor
to whom honor is DUE" The honest
men of the State can support Mr.. PAYNE
with a hearty good will. Hurrah for
PAYNEl

The Elections.

As usual, when the Democracy have
been successful, the Telegraph fails to
give full report of returns; but onr ex-
changes, as they arrive, disclose the fact
that the Democrats have achieved unex-
pected triumphs in all quarters. Mis-
souri,, where the opposition was united
and powerful, remains true to the faith
and Stewart Democrat, is elected Gov
ernor by 10000 majorety.
Iowa, so far as heard from is strongly
Democratic and niger voting has been
voted down by the white men of thai

Old Kentucky has doubled the Dem.

WE cannot pass over. in our notices, so
w important a House i'll this department
of trade, as that of JouN TENNIS & CO 1t is
unnecessary to speak of the individuals Of
the firm. personally, the greatobject ofour no.
tees beingto give our mercantile readers in a
few words, adirectory to the houses they may
wish to refer to in particular departments OF
trade. We may say, however. of both Mr..
TENNIS and Mr.. DANGLER, that they are among
our foremost merchants and leading operators
in the wholesale trade. Their store is one of
the finest in the city, and their stock of goods
places them among our first Western Houses.
Merchants dealing in Foreign and Domestic
Hardware, Saddlery, Coach Makers Goods,
Upholsters' Hardware, or any thing connected
with most of the manufacturing processes and
arts. in the way of tools and stock, will be
found largely provided for in their stock.
We CO not need to be especially descriptive
of varieties in their assortment. Merchants
may order boldly from this house in any
branch of the trade. Scarce any thing needed

E.E We learn that a clergyman whe
lives q few miles from Nora, in this coun-
ty. had some slight dispute with his
wife last week, and proceeded to beat
her with a stick from a locust tree, SO
severely hat her back was covered with
blood and bruises. Having used up one
stick on her, he was getting another,
when some of the neighbors interfered.
Such a brnte ought to be driven from
the sacred desk and from the community.

Diving Shrek.

The period of fall elections is approach
ing, aud the Republicans are gathering
themselves up for another Shrek. For
the purpose of creating excitement in
their favor they have persuaded the in
fatuated people of Lawrence, Kansas
Territory, to make open resistance to
Gov. Walker and the authorities of the
Territory, thus compelling Walker to
bring a force into the vicinity of that
town in order to maintain the laws. We
expect every day to hear of a conflict. 1t
is the last stage of a crazy game. Look
out for blood stories-look OUT for blood.
If the people of Lawrence do resist the
authority of Gov. Walker VIC sincerely
hope he will deal with them in stern
earnestness. when a reckless mob
openly bids defiance to the constituted
authority of government, we don't be-
lieve in firing blank cartridges. Let
them have just what they are seeking,
and by and by, they will know better
than to become the silly dnpes and tools
of political wire-workers in the East
Portage Sentinel.

Returning to their First Love-
Welcome back again!

An exchange paper very justly re-
marks, that 'tone-half of those whoIhave
deserted the Democratic party within
the past two or three years, are political
tricksters and hungry unsatisfed Office
seekers. They are a nuisancc-a dead
weight to any party to which they are
attached. Niggerism is welcome, heart
lily welcome, to all it has gained by the
acquisition of these uDprincipled schem-
ers. The other half is made up of hon
est and unsuspecting men, who feeling
the pressure Of taxation caused by put
ting into operation a new school law,
imagined all was wrong with the De-
mocracy, and suffered themselves to be
humbugged and deceived by the enemy.
They are returning daily to their "frst
love-" welcomed and kindly greeted by
their old friends and party. They come
back possessed of the knowledge of the
corruption of Black Republicanism and
impressed with the belief that the Dem
%ocratic party is the only party that stands
true aud faithful to. the Constitution and
the best interests of our State and Ma

Mrs. Cunningham.

New YoRK, Aug. Airs. Cunning
ham was arrested to-day on the charge
of felony, connected with a fictitious birth
of an heir to DIR. Burdell.
Mrs. CunniDgham's counsel limited on
her trial that she was enciente by DR..
Burdell.
Shortly after her acquittal she sent for
DR.. Uhl, her medical adviser, and con-
suited him OIL her expected accouchment.
In the course of a conversation the
doctors suspicious were aroused. He
consulted District Attorney Hall but de.
cliued to make an affidavit, urging mo-
tives of professional delicacy. Mr.. Hall
pointed out the law in the revised stat
utes, and declared that Mrs. Cunning
hams contemplated act was felony.
The doctor fually agreed to submit to
Mr.. Halls advice, aud measures were
immediately taken to Illustrate the med
itated fraud.
A story was invented of a California
widow being about to become a mother,
and wished to dispose of her child.
Mrs. Cunningham liked the plan and
became impatient to have it carried out.
A child was borrowed from the Belle
vue Hospital, and the denouement took
place yesterday at moor
District Attorney Hall made an afida-
Wit at midnight, and Mrs. Cunningham
was arrested this morning. The child
was sent to 81 Bond street, whore DIR.
Catlin, Mrs. Cunninghan's former ply
siciau, was in attendance with a nurse
In the midst of this, the police march
ed in and arrested all the %arties.
DIR. Catlin and the nurse were taken
to the station house.
Mrs. Cunningham, still feigning to be
i'll from her ACCOMPLISHMENTS, was allowed
to remain in her chamber, under the
surveillance of the police.

been at any time within the last year
The bright particular comet which SO
many have been admiriDg, is naught else
than the planet Venus.
Speaking of this matter, reminds us
that q paragraph has beer-perhars is
floating around in the papers, stating
that the moons of Jupiter can be seen:
when the planet is seen by its reflection
in a mirror. AS any person in the least
acquainted with optics knows, this is al
ab.urdity. There may be seen two sec
ondary reflections of the planet itself
and the same may be seen when observ

MAsNY's COMBINED Mower AND REA-
PER..We have heretofore had occasion
to notice this highly popular machine,
which has come out triumphant in near
Hly every contest during the present bar
vest, but had neglected to state the fact
which we learned from Dir. Wick, their
generalagent, that the Cleveland Ag-
ricultural Works, at which this machine
is now manufactured, exclusively, have
orders for one thousand beyond their
capacity to supply. Their facilities for
manufacturing will be duplicated before
the close of the present year, and they
: viii probably be enabled to supply the
demand.
We learn that the Cleveland Agri-
cultural Works have offered one of these
: machines as a premium for the best ten
acres of wheat that may be harvested
in Ohio in 1858. Ashland county, be-
ing n of the best wheat growing coun-
ties in Ohio or ia the world, can take
the premium, if some of our enterprising
farmers only wiU at.
