HAIR REsToRATIvE.-Prof. Wood ad-
vertises his valuable medicine for restor :
ing the hair, and for the prevention of
badness, &c. TIE greatest natural or
nament to the human form divine, is,
unquestionably, fine, luxuriant and
healthy growth of hair. This remedy
has been used quite extensively, and
with great success. Hundreds, nay thou
sands have nscd it, and are willing to
testify to its efficacy. Procure bottle
from one of his agents here, and prove
its virtues. Our good old baldheaded
bachelor friends should embrace this op-
portunity to cover their patos with coat
of rich luxuriant hair; and our young
friends who are becoming prematurely
gray, can have their locks restored to
their natural beauty by a few applica-
tons of this wonderful tonic.-Paris

The Littlcs Murder Case.
ROCHESTER,, April 81.

AeCSHLolHn, ~ pm
The interest in the Titles murder case
still continues. The court room was
crowded with an immense audience to-
day.
The mother of the prisoner Stout swore
that she washed the blood and mud of
his boots the morning after the murder.
= Chas. Stout, the prisoners brother,
was then sworn. He testified that the
prisoner told him where to find the cap,
pin and spectacles which were discovered
at the scene of the murder, and he found
them at o'clock on the morning after
the murder ygrxvT utfk} I0tfaz
The prisoners torn, clothes were also
shown and identified.
The prosecution will probably rest the
case on their side tomorrow.
ROCHESTER, April GO.
The prosecution closed their case this
morning. The opening speech Of the
defense occupied over two hours. The
counsel admitted that the prisoner killed

crime, but claimed it was not premedita-
ted murder, and asks the jury to find
him guilty of manslaughter. The case
