A GENEROUS DoNAT1oN.-A Among the donations

the Recorder, we see one Of 1ice tAou'and dollars
by Mr.. Henry N Brown, of that place. In these
days of se6shness when love of money-that root
of all eyil"-is predominant, such deed deserves
to be widely chronicled. 1t speaks for itself, and
needs no eulogy.

We have learned that one member of the
Pittsburg Conference at its last session
made : public attack which was both un -
manly and unjust upon tho personal char
acter Of one of the editors of this papcr.--
We do not propose to allude to the matter
any further now and here. 1t will be at
tended to in due time.
Weregrett these things exceedingly and are
sorry to be compelled to spread them before
the public. But this is not a controversy
of our own choosing. The Conference at.
tackled theiREe1srER unprovoked and un-
necessarily and the Advocate has added
insult to injury by charging us with the
publication of falsehood. Self.defence is
our undoubted right.
There is no one who is more deeply pain
cd than we by the exceedingly unenviable
position in which the Pittsburg NJ. E. Con
ference has placed itself 1t has rashly de-
stroyed all the good influence its ministers
might exert upon the Democratic portion
of the several communities in which they
are sent. It's action will injure the cause Of
religion and the interests of the Methodist
Church great deal more than it will affect
the Democratic party. The Church will
lose more members than the party will
votes. But we are unwilling to close this
article without expressly excepting from all
blame Tor the fanatical course which the
Conference has taken a very respectable
minority of the preachers who still preach
the Gospel in all its simplicity and mourn
over the madness of these times. In real
ity. most of the elder and more respectable
portion of the members OF the Conference
were greatly grieved by the ill-advised ac-
ton of the majority during the recent ses'
sion at GAINESVILLE. Some of the younger
preachers, whose itching for popularity is
stronger than their good sense or their love
for souls, have thrust aside the advice OF
their seniors and are pursuing course
which cannot fail to result in ultimate dis
aster and disgrace.

Horace Greeley Challenged

MISS EMMA WEBB, the Democratic young
lady who so triumphantly demolished the
sophisty of MISS DICKINSON, in recent
lecture ip New York, having been accused
! BY the New York Tribune with repeating
some copperhead's lecture" has sent a
modest proposition to HORACE GREELEY
to ssmeasure minds" with him in public
debate. She challenges him TO the discus
sion of the entire emancipation pslicy, she
affirming tina, it will end in the utter ruin Of
the United States.

The Trouble in Illinois.

The "copperhead" revolt in Illinois, which
the unreliable and partisan telegraph has
been attempting to alarm the country
about, turns out, as we suspected, to be a
mere local quarrel between few drunken
soldiers and, no doubt, quite as drunken
citizens. We reprint, from the Chicago
Times, on the outside of the REGISTER
what is undoubtedly pretty correct YER
sion of the affair.

testimony Of some of the most prominent
and reliable citizens of Barnesville.
With regard to the assertion that the
Sabbath day was desccrated by political
discussion, We have the testimony of Jour-
teen respectable citizens Of Barnesvlle. and
1--WE could have obtained the signatures of a
hundred,) if necessary, to the certificate Of
its truth. That is the statement that the
Adoocute calls "a glaring falsehood." Our
reporters account of the action of the con
ference concerning the REGISTER is literally
correct as even the preachers themselves
will testify. The story of the preacher who
bossted that he had expelled more than a
hundred "copperbeads" from his church
is also true and the fact that portion. at
least of his deficiency was paid from the
superanuate fund. the records of the con>
ference will show, and yet the Advocate as
sures its readers that the whole article "is
libelous az false" Notwithstanding the
Advocate accuses the REGISTER of being
foul mouthed and degraded" containing
"many weak attempts at scurrility," and ap
plies to us the whole vocabulary of such DO
lite phrases as it seems to think are part
of journalistic courtesy, we have no desire
to fire volley of epithets in return. We
leave the editor OF the Advocate to reap
alone all the glory he Can gather in
that field There are certain principles Of
editorial deoorum which We Of the secular
press generally feel bound to observe, but
we suppose that the advocate being relig.
ious paper, 10 not subject to the same re
straints.

ORIGINAL COLOR.
TRY THE CRLEBRATED
CIRCASsIAN
HAIR RESTORATIVE
IT is MARVELLOUS IN lis EFFECTS.
Try Tt!

1T is NOT A DYE. 1t restores the color of
/ the Hair by supplying the capillary tubes with
natural sustcnance, impaired by age disease. All
instantaneous dyes are composed of mineral caus-
tic, which destroys the vitality of the hair.
The Circassian Hair Restorative
Not only restores the hair its natural color, but
tits for short timc) renders it soft, luxuriant
and beautiful.
1t also promotes its growth, eradicatcs dandruf,
and imparts health to the head, and cures disease
or eruptions Of the scalp.
WHEN THE HAIR HAS BECOME GRAY,
it shows that the scalp, and blood vessels
have partially lost their vitality, and cease to
crete the coloring matter which supplies the inter
nal pith of the hair. To restore the hair to its
original color the scalp, and blood must be
invigorated to action, by supplying the nutriment
which nature has failed to do, and restore life to
the roots, and them to secrete coloring mat
ter and nourishmcnt to the hair.
