SCENES AT THE TICKET OFFICE.

The New Haven Journal publishes an amusing article purporting to be report of actual conversations at the Railroad Ticket office in that city. We extract the following:

 The scene changes with: Say, Mr. Ticket man, I just bought q ticket of you and left my wallet OF this shelf. Never noticed it til! I got down stairs. Pity dollars in it. .

 For restoring hair upoE bald heads (from whatever cause it may have fallen out) and forcing growth of hair upon the face, it has no equal. It will force the beard to grow up- on the smoothest face ;n from five to eight weeks, or hair upon bald heads in from two to three months. A few ignorant practitioners have asserted that there is nothing that will force or hasten the growth of the hair or beard. Their assertions are false, as thousands of liy- ing witnesses (from their own experience) can bear witness. But many will say, how are we to distinguish the genuine from the spurious It certainly is difficult, as nine-tenths of the different Preparations advertised for the hair and beard are entirely worthless, and you al ready may have thrown away large amounts in their purchase. To such we would say, try the Reparator Capilli; it will cost you nothing unless it fully comes up to our representations.

TH1 WORKING PEoPLE.-The annual session
Of the Brotherhood Of Locomotive Engin srs
was held last week at Cincinnati. It repre-.
sents eighty -four divisions In various paris OF
the country, and has been in existence four
years. Its object Is TO insure safe, reliable and
sober men for the position CT engine drivers.
One hundred delegates were present and they
are spoken of as body Of men as respectable
and Intelligent as ever was convened in Cin :
cinnati. Grand Chief Engineer Nelson made
an address, In which he Congratulated the So
ciety on its prosperity, and acknowledged the
friendly acts OF many railroad officials toward
the Brotherhood. He said that strikes would
end as soon as employers and employees be-
came more tolerant OF each others rights and
just demands. ~.
The distress which has for some time pre-
vailed among the working classes in France
appears by the latest reports frsm the manu-
taciurlng districts TO be on the increase. "A,
Ropen most OF the factory hands now only
work for four days in the week, and it is satd
that the manufacturers will soon reducesthia

in obtaining work In several other cities In
Paris the completion OF the new streets and
buildings has thrown great number OF la.
borers out of work, and men who earned from
four to five francs day last year are now
glad to obtain employment at less than hall
that rate. This state Of things, 1t Is thought
will be still further aggravated by the close Of

The Italian Question.

EAClTEMENT IN FLORENCE GARIBALDI RE-
PORTED IN ITALY.
Dispatches from Florence by cable, dated
yesterday. say: 1t is reported that General
Garibaldi is in Italy with his son. Menotti.
General Cialdini fails to form q new Cabinet.
and Rafazzf may remain Prime Minister. The
agitation and indignation throughout Italy is
very great, and frequent demonstrations occur
in Florence, the populace shouting, "Rome for
the capital" 1t is reported that Garibaldi has
not only eluded the vigilance of the Govern.
ment, but has made his escape from Caprera
and has succeeded in reaching Italy and is
now with his son Menotti. =
Gable kilograms from Paris yesterday say:
Official assurances have been given thar the
Government will not find it necessary to send
the military expedition across the Alps, and
that the force which had been massed for that
purpose will be dissolved. The Bourse, in
consequence, is greatly relieved, and rentes
are bnoyant. The Moniteur OF this morning in
its eficlal article, announcing the cessation of
wariike preparations against Italy, says:
"France beheld the spectacle of an invasion of
the Papal States by armed bands from the
neighboring province, Italy. She could not,
consistently with duty, dignity, and national
honor, suffer The September con vention to be
thus violated, SO she prepar ID to Gend an army
across the Alps and a feet to Rome; but Italy
has since given ample pledges TO fulfill on er
part the obligations OF the treaty in the large It
sense; consequently all hostile preparations
have been suspended by France"
