IT Is MOST DELIGHTFUL HAIR DRESSING.

1t eradcates scurf and dandruf.
II keeps the headcool and clean.
1t makes the hair, soft and glossy.
II prevents hair turning gray and falling off.
1t restores hair upon prematurely bald heads.
This is just what Lyon s Kathairon will do. 1t is
pretty-it is cheap-durable- 1t is literally sold
by the carload, and ye: its almost incredible de-

ARRIVAL OF GENERAL LEES
FAMILY IN LExlNGToN.-Gen. Lees
family arrived in Lexington on Sat
urday morning last by packet, and
took possession of the presidential
residence on College Hill. They
have been detained hitherto in Cum
berland county, awaiting repairs of
their future residence.
1t will be gratifying to the nu-
merous friends of the General and
his family to know that many of
their wants had been anticipated and
provided for. For some days before
their arrival, several of the ladies of
the town had been diligently en-
gagged in having the house thor
oughly cleaned up, carpets put down,
furniture adjusted, etc.
Mrs. Lees private apartments were
completely and handsomely furnished
through the considerable and liberal
kindness of wealthy lady of Cum
berland county. And, to her praise
be it spoken, she had all the furni-
ture manufactured in Lexington
thus setting an example worthy of
imitation.-Richmond Enquirer.

THE FENTANs.-The Fenian SEN
ate in New York has adjourned, but
otherwise Fenian affairs remain IN
statu quo. The Roberts faction give
out that the Irish head center, Mr..
james Stephens, who has so lately
burst his bonds, will very soon arrive
in this country, when, of course,
wrong will be made right. The
O'Mahony faction, on the other hand,
assert that Mr.. Stephens is in Paris,
and will not leave there, but that the
assembly of Fenian delegates, who
are to meet in New York on the Cd
Of January, will summarily overturn
the rule of the Senators who have
impeached O'Mahony and set up
Roberts in bis stead. Meanwhile,
Canada can come out of her fortifca-
lions, look about, and take little air
and exercise, before the fear of inva-
sion again drives her within stone
walls. 1t seems to be a pretty well
authenticated fact that money has
been pouring into the treasury OF
O'Mahony at the rate of at least one
hundred thousand dollars a month.

SOCIAL AND JUDICIAL RIGHTS.

Some of our contemporaries seem to
have but dim and imperfect knowl-
edge Of the difference between social
and Judicial rights, and we have been
severely brought to task for the views
which We sometime since presented
on the subject. Strange to say some
people still harp upon the alienable
rights Of man. though the potent fact
stares them in the face that there is
not and cannot be any such thing A
thing cannot be inalienable that is
constantly alienated. Life, for instance,
is said to be inalienable, though the
law constantly depriyes men Of their
lives as well as their property and lib
etty.
Man is a social being, is endowed
with social instincts, and cannot exist
il state Of isolation. In considering
the rights of man we must therefore
view him as member of society, as
ISOLATED with other individuals whose
rights or interests must be consulted
as we'll as his. Social rights then are
superior to individual rights, and must
always rule and have precedence when
there is a conflict.
1t will now be understood why the
rights Of society or Of man associated,
are perfect, absolute, analaenabze, whilst
hose of the individual are imperfect,
sub0rdinatc and aIienabZe.
In fact, man, as an individual and
as member Of society, has no rights
whatever except such as society con-
fers for its own benefit. 1t therefore
follows that any individual, or class of
individuals, may at any time be de-
prived Of any particular right or of
all their rights should the general 10.
terests of society demand this. And
strange to say, governments have al
ways acted more or less on this prin-
cipIr.
We have, in this free republican
government, deprived females, minors,
criminals, aliens, Indians, etc., of the
b llIot-box, and why? Because We
think the best interests of society re.
quire this exclusion. The individuals
included 10 the class enumerated are
not, on account of education, habits
and morality, qualified to cast judi
cious vote, and hence have been very
properly excluded from any partieipa-
ton in the affairs of government.
And if the interests of the communi,
ty should require, the ballot may be
still farther restricted. Moreover, so.
ciety has the perfect right to pass such
laws and adopt such regulations as
experience may have taughtto be ne
ocssary to enforce order, promote in.
1ustry and lessen crime. And if re-
CURED it has the right to make any
distinctions 10 these laws and reguIa-
ions as may be found necessary

RIDE in A PNEUMATIC RAILRo

RIDE I'M A PNEUMATIC RAILRo
TUBE.-A London paper contains v
account of the recent operations Of
pneumatic line of railway from t. y y
general postofflce to the London ale
Northwestern railroad, and the pad
sage through the tube ofseveral gen
tlemen who were anxious. for nef
sensation. Due preparation wa
made, and against many remonstranI
ces, the party determined to go. The
account of the expedition says:
The first sensation at starting, and
still more so upon arriving, was Ger
tainly not agreeable. For about 8
quarter of a minute in each case
there was pressure upon the cars
suggestive of diving bell experience,
suction like that by which one is
drawn under wave, and cold draft
Of wind upon the eyes, having al
most the effect of falling water but
once fairly within the tube these SEN
sations were got rid of, or left be-
hind, and the motion had little pos
tive discomfort about it. It was a
curious sensation to be flying along
through the earth, feet foremost, in
utter darkness, for the best part of ten
minutes, which, in such a place,
seemed half an hour.
Various experiments having been
tried with the tube and its powers of
suction, one of the officials at last de-
termined to see what would happen
in case the train stuck fast at any
point on its journey. A carriage was
accordingly "scotched," or fastened
in such way that it could not move
and then the power of the engine
was exerted to its utmost. The car
riage in question was intended for
passengers, and furnished according
ly. By-and-bye one of the cushions,
then others, and finally all the NOV.
ables which the carriage contained
were hurled through the tube and de,
livered at the other end, the force ex
erted being such that even the nails
keeping down the carpet were ex-
tracted. The air within the tube
was by no means foul or disagreeable
the party reached the end of
their journey in safety.
