Loss OF HAIR Much Of this deprivation is
caused by sheer neglect after illness, or some
other temporary drain upon the follicles at the
root of the hair. Dr.. Bellingham, Of London,
has identified his great name with "Stimula-

meet such emergencies. Messrs. H. l.. Hege-
man & Co., of New York, now have the entire
agency for the American continent. This is
quite sufficient Endorsement of the universal

quiescence in the assertion of their claim
to separate sovereignty. The time when
these questions had pertinency or plaus-
bility has passed away. The United
States waited patiently, while tAeir au>
thority was defed in turbulent assemblies
and in seditious preparations, willing to
hope that the mediation offered on all
sides would colciliate and induce the
disaitected parties to return to better
mind. But the case is nov altogether
changed. The insurgentg have insti-
tuted revolution, with open, hagrant
and deadly war to compel the Unitel
of the Union. The United States have
accepted this civil war, as an inevitable
necessity. The constitutional remedies
for the complaint of The insurgents are
still open TO them. and will remain so ;
but on the other hand the land and the
naval forces Of the Union have beer. put
into activity TO restore the Federal aus
thOrity, end TO save the Union from dam
ger.
You cannot BE- the decided or too expli,
cit in making known TO the French Gov
ernment that there is not now, nor has
there been, nor will there be, any, or the
least idea existing in this Government
of suffering dissolution of this Union to
take place in any way whatever. There
will be here only one nation and one
Government, and there will he the same
Republic and the same Constitution that
has already survived dozen National
, changes, and changes of Government in
almost every other country, and these
will stand hereafter, as they are now, oh
jects of human wonder and human aftcc-
ton. You have seen on the eve Of your
departure, the elasticity OF the National
spirit, the vigor of the National Govern
ment, and the lavish devotion of the Ma
tionaI Treasury to tins great cause. Tell
NJ. TEouvenel, tEcn,wth the highest con-
sideration and good feeling, that a thought
OF the dissolution Of this Union ,peaceably
or by force, has never entered into the
mind OF any candid statesmen here; and

statesmen in Europe.

What is Martial Law &?

AT the present crisis the significance of
a term 90 much used, and with so
little accurate sense of its meaning, be-
comes unusually important.
B0uvier defines martial l,w us "a code
established for the Government of the ar
my and navy Of the United States, -
whose principal rules are to be found in
the articles of war prescribed 10y act OF
Congress. But Chancellor Kent saws this
defnion applies only to military law,
while martial law is quite distinction,
and is founded on paramount necessity,
and proclaimed by a military chief
Martial law is generally and vaguely
held to be suspension Of all ordinary
civil rights and and as such, ap-
proXimates closely to military despot-
ism.
1t is an arbitrary law, originating in
emergencies. In times of extreme peril
to the State, eisher from without or from
within, TIE public welfare demands extra.
ordinary measures. And me- .ial law be
ing proclaimed, signifies that the opera
ton Of the ordinary legal delays of fjustice
is suspended by the military power, which
has for the time become supreme.
1t suspends the operation of the writ
of haJcaS corpus enables persons charged
with treason to be summarly tried by
Court Martial instead of Grand Jury jus,
titles searches and seizures of private
property, and the taking possession oI
public highways and other means of com,

else OF sovereignty, it is, of course, capa.
