IXcss and zoaC-In October last,
the New York Herald, speculatiug on
the results of Lincoln's election, to
the presidency Of the United States
an event the editor looked on as a
foregone conclusion-said:
There are those who affect to de-
spise the Southern States, and say
we would be better off without them;
such persons never trouble themselves
with statistics. OF the exports of
the countrh seventy per cents are
from the sonth, and only thirty per
cent from the north. 1t it clear theu,
that the South, which has only half
the white population of the North,
while its exports are more than doub-
lie, is really supporting the northern
population in our large cities. lake
away that support and an amount of
suffering and confusion will follow
that is fearful to contemplate. The
day may not be distant when many
Of the republican merchants, mechan-
les and factory hands Will curse the
day they were ever induced to Join
a fanatical party which has brought
such ruin upon the country. But
even this would be but the beginning
of their sorrows.'
The Herald is now leading or
gan in the pay of these same 'repub-
lican merchants, mechanics and fac
tory hands,
About the same time the same mer-
cenary sheet published an article ta-
ken from EeBow's Review, which it
calls ''a powerful article" showing
that "the only plan for the safety of
South and its institutions, is to re-
tire at once in peace from the Union
and for the sake of ihe North, the
Herald adds that the danger of this
step is imminent. To thos who talk
Of coercing the southern States into
the Union, after they have secaded,
we recommend the reasoning of this
able paper. Coercion is much easier
said than done.

u The following appeared in

ultimo. If the North continues her
inhuman war upon the citizens of the
South, no better move cnn be set on
foot than that which will teach them
the horrors of invasion:
The Dcroted Bamd.-The short
est path to peace is that which car
ries havoc and desolation to our in
vaders. 1t is believed that there are
five or ten thousand men in the South
ready and willing to share the fate
of Curtius, and devote themselves to
the salvation of their country. It is
proposed that all who are willing to
make this sacrifice, shall arm them
selves with sword, two five shoo-
ters and carbine each and meet, on
horseback, at some place to be de-
signated, convenient for the great
work in hand. Fire and sword must
be carried to the houses of those who
are visiting those blessings upon their
neighbors. Philadelphia, and even
New York, is not beyond the reach
of long and brave arm. The moral
people of these cities cannot be bet

The Coztederate Var Iar-The
question is being very much debated
whether it is polite for the different
States to collect for themselves the
Confednrate war tax, thereby exclu-
ding the intrusion Of government Off
cials, and saving the ten per cent
allowed by the act Of Congress on
the amount assessed to each State,
when collected and advanced by it's
own officers Some ignorance is ap-
parent iu the discussion. The Con-
federate act is an ad vzlorem bill. It
has all the characteristics Of pleni-
tude and fairness. When the system
Of State taxation is conducted on an
analogous, or fair ud Uozorem basis,
it can be very well and perhaps ad-
vantageously be extended to the col
lection Of the Confederate tax. In
different and unequal systems of in
ternal tavation, the enlargement OF
the collections of the State, by the
amount Of the government tax would
be an imposition upon the people

HEADACHE is the favorite sign BY which nature
makes known any deviation whatever from Tic nat
ura state Of the brain, and viewed in this light it
may be looked on as a safeRaard Intended 10 give
notice Of disease which might otherwise escape 1T
tenion, till too late TO be rcedied and its indi-
cations should never be neglected. Headaches may
be classified under two names, vizs S7mptomatic
and ldIopathic. Symptomatic Headache is exceed
ngly common and is the precursor Of great vurie-
" Of diseases, among Which are ApopIexy, Gout,
rheumatism and all febrile Diseases In its nervous
form il Is sympathetic Of diseases of the stomach
constituting sick headache of hepatic disease CON
shutting bilious headache, of worms, constipation
and other disorders of the bowels as well as renal
and uterine affections Diseases of the heart are
very frequently attended with Headaches Anaemia
and plethora are also affections which frequently
occasion headache. ldiopathic Headache is also
very common being usually distinguished by the
name of nervous headache, sometimes coming on
suddenly in a state Of apparently sound health and
prosrang at once the mental and physical energies,
and in other instances it comes on slowly, heralded
by depression Of spirit or acerbity of temper. In
most instances the pain in the front Of the head,
over one or both eyes, and sometimes provoking
vomiting under this class may also be named
Neuralgia.
For the treatment Of either class of Headache the
Cephalc Pills have been found sure and safe rem
edy relieving the most acute pains in few minutes,
and 10y It's subtle power eradcating the diseases Of
which Headache is the unerrng index.

A, HoRsR STOLEN Last Tuesday night the
barn Of Mrs. Susan Monroe, of Sc. Shaftsbu-
ry, was entered by two horse thieves. and a
valuable horse taken therefrom. Ii so happen
ed, however, that during their operations they
made sufficient noise to arouse Watchdog
about the premises, whose barking awoke q
hired man in the house. who went TO the barn
and discovered the horse was gone. He inn
mcdiately mounted another horse and started
in pursuit and came up with them near East
Arlington, with horse and cutter, ono Of
them leading Mrs. Ms horse from the seat.
He passed by them and went on few rods,
when turning and coming back, he seized the
stolen horse by the bride, at the same time
telling the rogues that Z" he guessed he would
take that horse -
A BOLD HoRsE THtEF.-On Saturday
evening last, Mr.. James McCuen left horse
and sleigh in front of Strong Il Ravens store
in this city. During brief absence it was
stolen. The thief drove 20 North Ferisburgh,
aud finding horse and sleigh by Mr.. A. Sat
terly's he made an exchange and went on
merrily, but closely pursued The pursuers
once came in sight Of the rascal and cried
stop thief, but stop he would not and as Mr.
Wilmarth's horse was the fastest on the road,
he made good his escape. We hope the
scamp will be caught yet. The horse and
sleigh he last stole belonged to Amos Will
marth, of Addison Vergeanes Vcrmonter.

WOODS HAIR RESTORATIVE.

We have never known any other medicine
win as large share of public confidence in
so short time as this has done 1t has not
been more than year since we first heard of
it, and it now stands at the head of all RENE
dies of the kind. We have never used any
of it ourselves, having had no occasion, as
our crown of glory not only as yet re-
tains its original color, but gets more so--but
some of our friends have, and we have never
known it to fail in restoring the hair to its
original color. Weadvise such as are becom-
ing prematurely gray, to give the - Restora-

Why longer sg6er9-Those who are so for
tunate as to have escaped Dyspepsia and its
attendant evils, can hardly conceive the suf-
fering that these diseases cause. The won
der is, that the afflicted continue to suffer
when that iniallibe remedy, the Oxygenated
Btters, is within the reach of all
