ONE DOLLAR 1t is too much, exclaims
the person desiring cheap articles for ths res
toration of the hair! We have however
in our experience found that articles which
command seemingly exorbitant prices, are in
the end cheapest to the purchaser. Precari-
Gus articles are always put up in small pack
ages, and efficacious medicines are not con-
sidered dear at any price. One doller being
the prices of Professor Woods Hair Restora-
tire, for the smallest size or trial bottle, is a
sufficient guarantee that the trial bottle con-
tains more precious ingredients, in proof of
which its sale has increased one hundred fold
within the past year!
Beware of worthless limitations
as several are already in the market, called
by different names. Use none unless the
words professor Woods Hair Restorative,
Depot st. Louis, Mo, and New York, are
blown in the bottle. Sold by all Druggists
and Patent Medicine Dealers. Also by all
Fancy and Toilet goods dealers in the United

Statesmen, must necessarily be oppressive to
tb. SoutA-s Could we all think and
feel alike; were our interests identical and
our occupations similar, we might adopt a
common government without detriment 70
either; but as we are different in all these
IL becomes us to prepare for an immediate
withdrawal from the alliance which has hith-
erto hefd us1together; and we hold it to be
the flrst duty, as it should be first object OF
Southern Statesmen and the Southern press,
10 lnaugurate a Southern ConfedeTGcy, and
thereby establish Southern independence"
The Hon. ELI SHORTER, Democratic Re
preventative in the last Congress, from Alaba-
ma, in letter recently addressed to his con-
stiiuents, declining a reelection, says that, in
the event of the success of the Republican
candidate at the next Presidential election, be
sees mo other remedy, consistent with the
rights and the power Of the South, except
in the dissolution Of the Uuias." He earnestly
hopes that no such alternative will be pre-
sented to us E; but If it should come, he will
hail ,rith jig the appearance of a new star in
the political armament of the world-lse star
Of a Southern ConfederGcy ~
fItis manifest that, in the Democratic party
of the South, there is a strong disunion cur
rent which is increasing in volume every day,
whilst in the Democratic party of the North,
the tendency is towards an ultimate union
with the Republican party.
Nothing can save the country and the
Union from the perils of scctionalism and dis
solution. but speedy union of the conserva-
tive men of all parties, both at the South
and the North.

Press ascribing it 10 one set aad the Union to
another and different set-each journal be-
ing so far right that both sets of leaders no
doubt contributed to bring the party to the
discreditahie, and humiIiating condition to
which both journals say it has been reduced.
The ''great men u Of the party in Office at
Washington" the Press says, .' may be fifty
compared to reckless and besotted mon
archy-blind to the appeals of the suffering
masses, and resolved upon pursuing its am
bilious and destructive career, and like the
monarchies of the old world, quartering its
troops (office holders and paid agents. upon
the peopie-troops paid with the peoples
money and instructed to destroy their liber-
ties"
1.-THE Federal Government, i" is administered
by these " great men Of the party, g like a
great despot," says the Press, EARNED with
what il believes to be invincible power strikes
at the vital principle of the Republic, and
seeks to assassinate freedom and equality on
the very hearthstOnes of the Union"
By the statements of the Press, as well as
of the Union, the leaders of the Democratic
party are thoroughly corrupt, and should be
hurled from power amidst the curses and ex-
ecrations of an outraged people.

The Democratic slave ap,tator.,

The official organ of the Administration
the Washington Unio'l, continues its denuncia
ton Of the agitation and the agitators of the
slavery question at the South as well as al
the North. In its semi-weekly issue of the
22d inst, it maintains that slavery ought
never to have been the subject of political
controversy at all" 1t says:
at is beneath the dignity ola sovereign
State of this Union to send representatives to
Congress to discuss the character of its
domestic Institutions. The national legisla-
ture should be the scene of appropriate
Investigation into subjects Over-which that
body has at least color of jurisdiction. And
the question Of the extension of slavery in
this or that direction is one which is equally
foreign to the two representative bodies.
Speeches can no more extend slavery than
propagate slaves. Nobody goes to this or
that place with slaves on the advice of MEM
beers Of Congress. Nobody in this wise
practical age of ours is foolish enough to
invest his property in a Utopian scheme for
colonizing territory with slaves to effect
great political ends. Those who talk such
nonsense are VOrthLess dgitatOrs, without
means or responsibility. They get enlisted
as partisans, they talk as partisans, and they
are purely partisan representatives.
The Union further maintains that, "the
question whether any given territory can be
colonized by slaves and their
owners" is ''not at all legal problem" but
"a question of profit and loss" of dollars
and CENTS" and "has not one shade of politics
in it,
The official organ of the Administration
proceeds further to remark as follows
Congress has within twenty years impos-
ed atax upon the country, in wrangling on
his subject of more than twenty millions of
dollars. 1t has largely occupied the press
IL has sundercd long established religious or
Ii has arrayed one great sec
ton of the Union against the other in deadly
strife. 1t has occupied the time of Congress
10 the neglect of the public interests and the
lishonor of the government. All this has
been the result of difference upon Il purely
ABSTRACT question. There is not in it single
clement of practical lie"
What commentary, coming as it does.
rom the official organ of Democratic Ad-
upon the unnecessary, mischev-
rus, and wicked agitation of the subject of
lavery, which the Democratic politicians of
he South have, for the most selfish party
purposes, kept up for the last twenty years.
What plausible pretense can be urged for the
etention in power by the people of the South !
f these agitating politicians?

London Correspondent OF the Christian watchnan.
The Biblical critics among your readers
win be gratifed to learn that the Vatican
Manuscript. the most famous codex of the
original Scriptures of the New Testament,
will shortly be made available to scholars at
a reasonable price. The Vatican Manuscript
edited by Cardinal Mai, contains not only
the New Testament. but also the Septuagint
version OF the Old Testament Scriptures and
is comprised in five folio volume The first
four contain the Old and the fifth the New
Testament, and the only means of obtaining
the Roman edition is by purchasing the entire
work atthe cost of about fifty dollars. The
Coder pdtscanus of the New Testament will
soon be printed in London, verbatim from the
Roman edition recently published: at the
price OF only twelve shilliDgs per copy.
This Manuscript is believed to be the most
ancient in existence, and modern Biblical
critics assign its date to the middle of the
fourth century. Its history is involved in
impenetrable obscurity, and no one can tell
at what period it was first placed on the
shelves of the Vatican. but early in the six
teenth century it was generally known
throughout Europe as the most venerable
manuscript of the New Testament 1t has
always been jealousy. guard.d, and its
contents concealed from vulgar gaze. When
DIR. Bentley contemplated an edition of the
Greek Testament in l72l, he visited Rome,
hoping to obtain permission to collate the
Codex Vaticanus, but was denied access to
the manuscript In lS43 Cardinal Mai show
ed Professor Tischendorfthe printed text now
recently published. More than thirty years
since the writer was favored with view of
this ancient manuscript. 1t is written on
vellum, and the letters are all capitals and
destitute of interpunction. In each page
there are three columns. ,t

undispnted facts. 1t is asserted that within
Few weeks after my marriage, myself and
my wife ~did separate" The word sssep-
arate," as therein used. conveys the meaning
{ OF mutual parting, sckich is not true. We did
not separate. Ny wife abandoned me against
my prohibition. She fed from nv home
wniie was absent at my daily labor. She
deserted me; and continued her desertion
though | continued to live in the same house
mus, we did not separate, as the preamble
asserts; and the assertion cannot stand in it
without peryerting facts denied nowhere else
and by nobody mo not even by my wife herself
Further: protest against the assertion in
the said preamble, that my wife and myself
can never be reeonciled. So far as 1t refers
10 me 1t is gratuitous, since [ alone am COM
petent to speak for myself in this regard 1t
hardly be said that any man ont of the Legis-
lature can affirm for me that our differences
are lrrcconcilable; and if so, there is nothing
in the Office of Legislator which enables
him to do so. 1t may be true. But this pro-
liability is no warrant whatever for the prac-
teal conclusion that divorce should now be
enforced upon me.
Lastly, protest against the principle and
practice announced in the said preamble.
They have no precedent in the statutes of this
Commonwealth. No analogies, either in the
spirit or the forms of justice, legislative or
Judicial. No pretext in reason. No color of
right. 1t is the first instance in any civilized
communicated God grant it may be the
last-in which the doctrine has been announ-
ced, much less urged for the adoption of a
body OF law makers. that wrong is lis own
proper aud ultimate Justification, and that
the sacred sanction of law shall crown the
purposes Of the wrong dOer, endorse patent
peJnries, and purify reputation stained by
wanton shame, while it operates to asperse
the character and crush the claims of the
innocent. HORACE B. Fry.

RICHES AND POVERTY rich, it is easy to
conceal our wealth; but if poor, it is by no
means easy to conceal our poverty. II is less
difficult to hide thousand dollars than one
hole in our coat. 1t would be agreeable now
for some individuals who have never had an
opportunity of concealing their wealth, from
the fact OF their never possessing it, to have
that opportunity afforded them. This they
can readily secure by enclosing SI0 SIS, or
S23, to Wood, Eddy 4 Co. Wilmington, Del,
or Augusta, Ga. These respective amounts
will entitle the writer to whole, half, or
quarter ticket in their great legalzed lotter-
les and perhaps to the capital prize of $780,
O0O. These lotteries were formerly under the
respective management of Gregory & Maury,
and Swan Il Co., and are secured by charter
from the States in which they were established.

The Disunioa Democracy OF the
south.

Democratic politicians Of the South are
beginning openly to advocate the policy OF
cutting loose from the Northern Democracy.
and at once forming southern organiZa-
ton preparatory to secession from the
Union. We re-published last week an extract
from the Montgomery (Ala.) Adpeyftser in
which 1t was declared, that no Democrat who
was "a believer in the fidelity of the Northern
Democracy could receive the support of the
Democracy for representative to Congress in
that district.
The Noble Tribune says:
s'fhe recent developments at Washington
have shown the utter futility az relying any
longer upon the symp thies of friends in the
North who. however honest in their desire 10
do us Justice, are driven into hostility by the
power Of an irresistible public opinion at
home. A stern resolution has been formed,
and Is fast inding public expression, 90 look
our dangers IN the flee. to measure their iull
extent and meet the responsibilities they i'm
pose. Our cause of quarrel IL one which
cannot be compromise by court OF hon
orr nor auiioahly adjusted by "a confer
ence of disinterested friends"
Again il says:
1--WE ask those who still cling 10 the ma
tional democracy what they propose 10 do.
In the recent debate between Northern and
Southern United States Senators, Mr.. Pagh
and Mr.. Stuart conceded with Mr.. Douglas
and DECLARED that slavery could mud no pro
lection in the territories. and II Southern
men expected it, they could not occupy the
same platform. From this decision we are
obliged to believe the Kansas Nebraska legis-
lation wasa cheat aud swindle from the be-
ginning and was intended 70 deceive our
people. twill not do 10 say these Senators
misrepresent their constituents, Tor such is
not the fact. They are, IL anything, more
moderate than the populations they serve"

Democratic Bis.en.ions in Georgia,

The Southern C0nfederacy, paper published
at Atlanta, (Ga.,) which processes to be of
the uncompromising Southern Rights Demo-
cratic faith" charges, ''wiihout equivocation,
that HOWELL COBB, JOHN HENRY LUMPKIN and
JOSEPH e. Brown have entered into a most
corrupt bargain and sale of the people of
Georgia, without their wishes or consent, for
the purpose of furthering their 1.-THE cOnspra-
tors'l own individual plans and unholy
schemesn
The HOWELL COBB here alluded to is the
present Secretary of the Treasury. Mr.
BROwN is the present Governor of Georgia,
and Mr.. LUMPKIN, the most formidable con-
testant Mr.. Brown had for the nomination.
The object of BROWN, the CoRfe2eracy says,
was to secure the influence of LUMPKN and
his friends in favor of his [BROwN's] reno
mination. To this end Brown proposes TO
COBB that if he, COBB, will - fix - LUMPKIN,
BROwN will use all has influence to secure
COBB S nomination 10y the Charleston Conven-
tiOn, to which COBB agrees, and staightwav
goes to work on LUMPKIN to reconcile him to
BROwNs denomination. by means of various
suggested considerations, one of which was
the election of LUMPKIN to the United States
Senate by ousting Judge IvERsoN, and failing
in that, first class mission.
The COntederacy says it has respectable wit
nesses to substantate its charges, and will
do so whenever the parties implicated shall
deny the charges and call for the proof.
