The Outside Dog in the Fight.

You may sing of your dog. eour bottom dog
Or OF any dog that you please
go for the dog. the wise old dog,
That knowingly takes his ease,
And, wagging his tail outside the ring
keeping always his bone in sight
cares not pin in his sound old head
For either dog in the fight.
Not his is the bone they are fighting for,
And why should my dog sail in,
With nothing 10 gain but certain chance
TO lose his own precious skini
There may be few perhaps who fail
To see it in quite this light,
But when the fur flies had rather be
The outside dog in the fight
know there are dogs-injudicious dogs
Who think it is quite the thing
To take the part of one of the dogs,
And go yelping into the ring.
But care not pin what all may say
In regard to the wrong or right
NY money goes rs well as my song.
For the dog that keeps out of the fight.

~ In Paris next month, in con-
nection with the Exposition, series
of dog races is announced. The dogs
to take part in the contest will be
brought to Paris from all parts of
the country, and the railroad COM
panies have agreed to transport them
at half price. This is something
novel in the way of sporting, and we
are at a loss to see anything in it be-
yond the qualification of taste for
low amusements. Trials of speed
between horses have this to recon-
mend them, that they keep up an in
terest in the training and education
of noble and useful animal whose
services are Indispensable to man;
but except, perhaps, in the case of
hunters, there is nothing to recon-
mend similar contests between dogs.

A TTENTION is respectfully called tc
N the above mentioned Paint, and the
qualities upon which are based its claims to
superior advantages, established by the most
iDcontrovertible evidence as to fact, as al
ready fully demonstrated in this ana neigh
boring cities by many of the largest Gas
Companies, Iron Establishments, Iron Safe
Manufacturers, Ship Builders, Painters, Su-
gar Refners, Carriage Manufacturers, Build
ers, Steamboat and Railroad Companies
Roofers, etc.
1t consists of seventy-two parts Oxide OF
Iron, and twenty eight parts Cement Lime
Stone, in the one hundred pounds.
The Ore from which this Paint is manu-
factured is from a vein discovered in Carbon
County, Pa which is overlaid with hydraulic
cement lime stone, through which the waters
of ages have percolated, and which in con-
nection with the Iron, gives to it the peculiar
property of withstanding heat and moisture,
which no other of the so-called metallic
paints possess.
It has much more body than red or white
lead. 1t is warranted perfectly water and
fire proof, and to withstand greater heat on
metals, without scaling, than any other paint
in use; hence it is unquestionably the
Best Coating ever applied ON Steam
Pipes and Boilers,
Where it is prOoen that euen Red Lead Will
not stand.
1t is perfect cover for ships bottoms, of
iron or wood; and all kinds of iron, tin,
brick or wood work, out-houses and canvass
coverings. 1t tprevents and arrests the corro-
sion of metals, and is not affected by the ae-
tion of salt, gases, acids or ammonia
Ithardens under water, as has been fully
demonstrated by its application to gas hold
ers, by many of the largest Gas companies in
the United States: which companies, have
thoroughly tested its properties as herein
claimed, pronounce in its favor over any 9TH
er paints in the market, even though sold at
double its price.
AS o coating for patterns of iron or wood,
when mixed with shellac, it is much superior
to beeswax, oil, or sheflac alone, as has been
proven at the largest foundries in the country.
For patching boilers and making Joints. 1t
is considered superior to red lead, or any 9th
er preparation
For cleaning metals 1t takes the place of
crocus, rouge and emery, being better and
cheaper.
This Paint requires no more oil than dry
lead or zine, and much less than the ordina
ry mineral paints. 1t is free from any waste,
and possesses spreading and covering pow
er unequaled
All orders or Communications, by mail or
otherwise, will receive prompt attention.

The "You shan't" Party.

The Sandusky Register pointedly
brings to the surface that the De-
mocracy have been without princi-
pie since the days they advocated the
extension of slavery, and that it is
now the "You Shan't" party of the
nation, SAYING
"The Southern States seeded;
the people said, "We will coerce
them" The Democracy wavered
awhile and then said, "You shan" p"
This negative they strove to make
effective through four years of war,
but their failure was complete, aE0
the South was coerced. During the
progress of the war the people said.
I'VE will destroy slavery" Democ-
racy, the termagent, screamed "You
shan't," and struggled to prevent the
bondman's chains but the wheel re-
volved, Democracy went down and
Human Freedom came uppermost.-
The war over, the people who had
saved the Republic said, "We will
demand and secure from these con-
quered rebels such guarantees as
will recognize and make permanent
the results of the war" The strid-
ulous tones of the Democracy were
Immediately heard louder than ever
proclaiming its everlasting "You
shan't" This time fortuitous
President and few unhappy Repub-
licans joined the cry, but again the
wheel turned round bringing Democ
racy, Wrong, and johnson under,
and Right uppermost. The people
declare that they will honestly pay
their public debt, and "You shan't"
comes up from the ranks of the op-
position. And thus it is to the end
of the chapter. The people through
their trusted agent, the Union party,
declare in favor of whatever is really
progressive and sensibly reforma-
tory; the Democracy, as though, like
the crab, it had but one duty, one
power, one instinct-that of going
observation-disclosures "You shan't'' as
its rally cry, and opposes everything,
while recommending nothing instead
A party never marched to victory
with a negative platform, and prin
ciples of the neuter gender. The
world likes masculine positiveness.
The Democracy will never gain sue
cess by pulling backward on the
coat-skirts of the advancing Union
column, but will be sure to be COW
cred with the dirt and CRIME which |
are the lot of those who march in the
rear. When our antagonists shall
strive to out run the present domi-
nant party in real patriotism and per-
sistent good works, it will be time to
talk of restoration of power to the
erring Democracy"

~- The Chillicothe Gazette says:
We learn that the infant daughter OF
Colonel Richard Long, of this city,
had a miraculous escape from death
few days since, at the summer
residence of her grandfather, j.
McLandburg, Esq, at Cincinnati fur
mace, twenty-four miles east of this
place, on the Marietta & Cincinnati
Railroad. While being drawn in her
little carriage along the edge of a
precipice ninety five feet high, a
strong blast of wind forced the wag-
on, which had been left standing but
for a moment, over the rocky edge,
and it fell seventy-nine and one
half feet, striking at the root of
small tree, on ledge that jutted out
about fifteen feet from the foot OF
the precipice, throwing the body out
into some bushes and pile of leaves
that had been swept from the yard
above. When found its dress was
over it's eyes and it was indulging in
a little cry. DR.. L. W. Foulke, of
this city, was telegraphed for, and
was promptly on hand, and found
that, save light injury to the scalp,
she was none the worse for her peril

The DESPERATE DEMOCRATIC DIS
EAsE.-A copper Jeremiah says dole
fully: "When the Democratic party
lost pluck it lost power" This is
true with the slight exception that it
reverses the order. When the Dem
ocratic party lost power it lost pluck.
When Democrat loses Office he has
nothing to fight for. Without the
cohesive power of the public plum
der the party falls to pieces. The
idea of contending for principle new
er penetrated the Democratic Gran
ium. AS has been said of the march
of an army, the Democratic party
travels on its belly. The moment
that the rations and regular pay that
is furnished by the possession of
power give out, that moment the
great party is helpless and ready to
dissolve. Then it falls to recrimina-
ton, and while in all the demoralized
leaders there is not one who is not
seeking some dodge by which sue
cess is to be reached by Disgusting
its real principles, yet every one
joins in the general cry that the par
ty lost power because it lacked bold
ness, and as this Jeremiah says
"The Democratic party was cursed
with thieves, with money lovers,
with timid beaters of the bush for
game, with timber backed leaders
who trembled at every rough wind
that passed over prisons and bayo-
nets, with policy pleaders and lovers
of self" Unquestionably this is
true, but it is Pathological. 1t is
simply to say that the Democratic |
party is cursed with Democrats

REPARATOEs CAPYLEI,

EOR restoring hair upon bald heads (irom
Il whatever cause 1t may have fallen out)and
forcing growth of hair upon the face, it has
no equal. 1t will force the beard to grow upon
the smoothest face in fl ON five 10 eipht weeks,
OF 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 OF beard. Their
ass ertions are false, as thousands of living wit
ness from their own eXperence) can bear wit
ness But many will say, how are &c TO dis.
tingush the genuine from the spurous9 1t
certainly is difficult, as nine t1nLhs Of the diff
erent preparations advertised for the hair ard
beard are entirely worthless, and you may have
already thrown away large amounts in their
purchase. To such we would sOy, try the Re-
parator Capilli; it will cost you nothing unless

your Druggist does not keep 1t, send US one
dollar and we will forward it., postpaid, to-
