Oberlin boils again. The citizens of
that place have been attacked by another
Crisis, and they have fred at it. On
Saturday the Marshal of this District
sent some subj enas for witnesses in
Oberlin to Deputy Dayton, who proceed.
ed to serve a portion of them. On Sun
day the matter was made a special sub
ject of prayer by the Rev. Mr.. Peck,
who prayed that the Lord would stand
by those .men who had prevented the
carrying off fugitive slaves from that
place, and hoped He would soften the
hearts of their prosecutors, and nerve
them to greater struggles in behalf OF
freedom. About 2 O'clock on Monday
morning q party of men went to the
house Of Deputy Marshal Dayton and
fred several shots at it, SCATTERING the
windows and doing other damage. For
tunately the shot did not hit any of the
inmates. The bold and courageous men
who had probably been acting under tb.
inspiration of Brother. Peek's prayer
then retired to their virtuous c uches.
It is urged by some of the. Oberlir
people that the only object Of thes'
sweet persons was to brighten the Deputy
from serving the remainder of the sub
penas. But if this was the object il
failed, for he served them soon after day
break.

A BEAUTIFUL HEAD
OF
GLOSSY HAIR
Completely Preserved
TO THE GREATEST AGE

And who thct is gray would not have it re-
stored to former color: or bald but would have
the growth restored, or troubled with dandruh
and itching but would rave it removed, or trcu-
bled with s~crofula, scald head or other erup-
tiOns but would be cured, or with sick head
ache. (neuralgia) but would be cured. 1t will
also remove all pimP!es from the face and skin.
Prof. Woods Hair Restorative will do all this.

ANN ARBoR, November 5, 1858.
rRGF. o. j. ooD-Dea Sir: / have heard
much said OF the wonderful effects of your Hair
Restorative, but having been so often cheated
by q~uackery and qUack nostru1ns. hair dyes,
&C.. was disposed to place your Restorative in
the same category with the thousand and one
loudly trumpeted quack remedies, until 1 met
you in Lawrance county some months SINCE,
when you gave me such assurance as induced
the trial of your Restorative in my family--trst
by my good wife, whose hair had become very
thin and entirely white. and before exhausting
one of your large bottles, her hair was restored
nearly to its original beautiful brown color, and
had thickened and become beaut full and glossy
upon, and entirely over the head; she continues
to use it. not simply because of its identifying
effects upon the hair. but because of its health
full influence upon the head and mind. Others
of my family and friends are using your Rcsto-
rative, with the haPpiest effects; therefore, my
skepticism and doubts in reference to it's char
acter and value are entirely removed; and |
can and do most cordially and cenfdentially
recommend its use by all who would have their
hairrestored from white or gra Y (by Teason OF
sickness or age.) to orr ginal color and beauty
and by all young persons who would have theiI
hair beautiful and glossy.

Close of the normal Institute.

The Preble County Teachers Insti-
tute closed its annual session last week.
The number in attendance was greater
than ever before, and an unusual inter-
est was taken in its proceedings. The
most unbroken harmony prevailed
throughout the term. There were two
lectures last week. Hon. HORACE
MANN, of Antioch College, lectured on
Tuesday evening. Subject, "Motives of
Teachers" He handled his subject in
his usual clear, sparkling, and terse
style. Original, philosophical, and Sc
verely logical, Nh. Mann, is one of the
best educators an j most acceptable pub
lie speakers we have. We were glad to
sec a large and attentive audience. On
Thursday evening, Prof. MILTON SAY
LoR, of Cincinnati, lectured. His sub
ject was "Mirth and the Mirthful.'-
Hsltoo had a full house, although Dan
Rices circus was in full blast. His lee
ture was a fine production and evidenced
that he had critically read the best au-
thors and culled their purest gems
His style of elocution is good and his
lectures deservedly popular. If they
have any fault they are too much com,
piled and sometimes a little too analyti-
cal to suit a common audience. On
Friday afternoon the Teachers had a
';pic ME-" at the favorite spring East of
the garrison grounds. The day was
fine and under the shadow of the old
trees were
s'Sport tina wrinkled care deIides
And laughter holding both his sides"
Speeches suited to the occasion were
delivered by Messrs. Morris, Gilmore,
Weller, Marsh and Abbott. An excel
lent essay was read by Miss Mercy
Larsh, and an numerous poem, we'll re-
cited by Miss Anna Fyffe. About sun
down the party came to town, and thus
has ended one of the most harmonious
and profitable Institutes ever held in
this town. May the teachers all enjoy
a year of successful labor and be- vel
coined back on the annual return of our
Institute.

HEar r4L-.
BE- Dan Rices circus was in. town
last week, and we had the usual amount
of noise, side-shows, dwarfs, snakes,
mountebanks, wild women, ginger bread,
and ice cold lemonade, common to such
occasions. The most comic scene of
the whole day, was the arrest of one
nansof the company, by constable Krug,
who yatienriy seized him as he was leav-
ing,toYn. He was arrested for turning
over, the wagon of a kind of camp fol-
lower, ipjuring his property, such as
peanuts, gingerbread, &c. The arrest
ed individual was Indignant and ac-
cused plaintiff of passing bad money,
gambling, &c. In the midst of the war
of words at Esq. Banta's Office, in steps
a v~alorous friend of the nan under ar
rest, generously lays a bank note on the
table, and wished to make an affidavit,
to, have -sub-poenas issued for "Honest
John, Tom, Dick and Harry" whose
united testimony would come down in
thundcrs Of destruction upon the plain
tiff. Esq. puts the note in his pocket,
the papers are made out, the generous
friend vAnfosed, the witnesses absquatu-
lated, the defendant cut dirt, the case
dried up, the Esq pulled the note from
his trusty vest pocket, when To-! it was
Newport Safety Fund. The town was
cleared of ~rascals, thanks to the majes-
