WHO ENDED THE WAR?

The only argument used by the Rad
icals in favor of Grant, is his military
record. And what is that? Why, he
took Richmond after losing more
men than Mcclellan had in his whole
army. But would he have taken
it, if Sherman had not pierced the
heart of the South and marched to the
sea +? Never! To Gen. Sherman be-
longs the credit of ending the war. To
Mcclellan belongs the credit of shatter-
ing Lees grand army at Antietam.
Grant a military genius? Aye, if
wholesale butchery of his own men
makes a man general, he is one!

JOHN CESSNA says that the question
in this campaign is, "shall the boys
in blue or the boys in grey rule this
governments" He tries to impress the
public mind that he is in favor of the
"boys in blue" But the record is "a
gainst him. Did he not cheat Capt.
Stuckey out of the nomination for Leg
islature in this county, and did he not
travel all the way to Chambersburg
to choke off Col. Weistling for Con-
gress ? Does this look like being in fa-
vor of the "boys in blue" ruling p
The truth is, he is for nobody but
"Dad," and he don't care how blue or
grey, or black anybody may look about
it. Deeds speak louder than words,
and that kind ofcheap ''loilty'' to the
"boys in blue" won't answer, Johnny.

WHO is RESPONSIBLE FOR AMBER
SONVILLE

The startling document printed on
our outside, over the signature of Ro.
Ould, proves what has often been as
serted, that Gen. Grant is responsible
for the prolonged Imprisonment Of Union
soldiers al tAnderSonUiiLe. The rebel au
thorities made every proposition to ex-
change, but Grant, cold hearted, un-
feeling, pitiless monster, refused to ac-
cept any of the propositions. Gen. B.
F. Butler has testified that Grant for
babe any exchange of prisoners. No
wonder that Joe Brown, of Georgia,
Bowen, of South Carolina, r. R. But
Ter, of Tennessee, and the most cruel
and bitter of the rebels during the war,
are now supporters of Grant. Birds Of
a feather flock together. Read the
statement of Mr.. Ould. Let every SOL
dier read it. Let every father who lost
a son at Andersonville, read that state
ment. Let the truth be known, no
matter whom it hurts.

No loss can be more fdt0l to beauty,
especially in the female sex, than the
loss of the hair; glossy, luXuriant
hair is one of the most power

badness or even a deficiency of hair
exists, we naturally look for dry

Editors G0zet3e:-I see in the L7qti-

the meeting on Monday evening last,
Another Copperhead Fizzle." He
occupies half column of his paper in
lies with regard to that meeting, and,
no doubt, he thinks the people in the
country will believe it all to be true,
when the writer himself knows that
the whole thing is tissue Of offaIsehoods.
Had | not been there on Monday eve
ming and seen the proceedings, would
not have thought SO much abont it, but
having been at the meeting, | know
the falsity of his statements. | have
never seen that Court House more
densely crowded, and nearly all voters.
He says ''about one third were Repub-
licans, who, through curiosity, went to
hear what was saidn | admit that
there were a few Republicans there, but
the speeches of MessrS. Kimmcll and
Shriner were so excellent that they

itor Of the Inquirer must tell the truth
if he wishes people in the country to be-
lieve his assertions, and not try to palm
off lies on those who were present to see

A HINT TO LA DIES.-It Is a distin-
gushing characteristic Of cultivated
woman to adorn and beautify her per-
son. In proportion as she becomes re-
fined or debased, she pays more or less
regard to her personal appearance
The love Of admiration is, as it ought
to be, strong in every WOman's nature,
and hence it is that the decoration of
her person is always regarded as of par
amount Importance The three most
beautiful things on earth are women,
children and flowers each equally by
nature pure and attractive. Woman
knows she is beautiful, she loves TO be
admired by man, endeavOrs to render
herself as attractive as possible to mans
eyes, and therefore it is that she avails
herself of all the benefits of dress and
ornaments. Woman is gifted by ma
ture with great natural attractions.
Her complexion is, if not ruined by
paint and powder, fair and delicate,
her hair abundant and lustrous, and
her form the very perfection of grace
and loveliness. Woman's chief 0rna-
ment is her hair. No matter how reg
ular the contour Of the features may be
how lustrous the eye-how sweet the
voice or graceful the form, if the hair
be not soft, glossy and beautiful, the
chief attraction is wanting A lady re-
markabIe for the beauty of the hair,
remarked in our hearing, the other
day, that she owed to the moderate and
constant use "Barrett's Hair Restora-
tive" deep obligation, for by it she
had become locally famous for the a
bundance and lustre of the hair. T.
sing it constantly ourselves we can add
our testimony that as a dressing and
restorative combined, Barrett's is supe-
rior to any Hair Preparation we have
ever used. 1t is reasonable in price,
too, costing only one dollar for a
