The finest Pertumery and
Toilet articles, at Sisson's.

DAVID SHUTS, who often
pays our town a visit, appeared
upon our streets, on Monday
last, on horseback, with a red
scarf and cow-bell around his
neck, and trumpet in his hand,
making the hills echo by the
ging Of his bell and the
shrill blasts blown from his
trumpet,-creating an excite
ment that aroused the whole
population of our usual quiet
village by his preaching, bell
ringing and trumpeting. Ga
briel would do well enough to
be content to blow his horn for
his followers, but when he
breaks into our school-houses
and destroys lights, doors, sash,
and valuable furniture con-
tained therein, it is high time
steps should be taken to re,
store Gabriel and his trumpet
to a more peaceful mood.

THERE are a few cases on re-
cord whore a wig has saved a
mans life, and a few more
where it might have saved his
life if he had one to save. Alb
salom's fine head of hair was
his destruction, when he was
caught in the boughs of the
oak, and the man who had his
wig torn from his head under
the scalping knife of the saw
age, might have thanked his
stars for his capillary deformi-
ty. Still, as general rule,
badness is not desirable, nor
have we heard of a case where
premature gray hair was either
ornamental or beneficial. "Bar-
rrett's Hair Restorative" is re-
markably successful in remov-
ing premature, gray hair and
preventing badness.

Improvement In Hot Blast

WE copy from the Philadel.
ph:a Commercial List and
Price Current, the following
notice of Colonel -LoNG's i'm.
provement in hot air b lasts
for furnaces: ?
San Improvement highly i'm.
portant to the iron interests
of Pennsylvania has been made
by Col. Richard Long, of Chill
licothe, o., in hot air blasts for
furnaces, which increases the
yield, as we'll as reduce the ex-
pense of operating. The i'm
provement consists in suLsti-
tuting fire clay pipes for iron,
and supporting the walls with
fire. brick and iron plates, thus
overcoming contra ction and
expansion, the pipes being
made oval in form (the narrow
edge uppermost) thus prevent
ing the accumulation of dust
and equalizing the heat. The
joints are coupled with the
same material, and made per.
tectly tight; at the same time
easy of access and readily re.
moved or renewed. The uses
of fire clay for purposes some.
what similar, is understood and
appreciated particularly where
high heat and consequent con-
Iractlon ana expansion com @
in question; and it appears sin
gular that it has not heretofore
been used for this specific pur.
pose. The main points sugges-
ted by this invention, are the
cheapness and durability of
the material used, the ease
with which it is renewed or re-
moved, the perfectly tight
joints, and the reduction in
friction, thus increasing the
power of the engine, and con
sequently the production of
iron. This improvement must
be Of incalculable value to iron
manufactures both East and
West"

FOR THE UNION; WITH SCENES
AND INoIDBNTS IN THE GREA,
REBELLroN," is the title of
handsome volume, just is
| sued bycJONEs, BRoTHERs &
Co., Cincinnati, o.
There is a certain portion o
the War that will never go in
to the regular histories, nor be
embodied in romance or poe
try, which is a very real par
of it, and will, if preserved
convey to succeeding genera
tions a better idea Of the spirit
of the conflict than many dry
reports Lor careful narratives
of events, and this part may
be called the gossip, the fun
the pathos of the war. This
illustrates the character of the
leaders, the humor of the SOL
diers, the devotion of women,
the bravery of men, the pluck
of heroes, the romance and
hardships of the service. From
the beginning of the war, the
author has been engaged in
collecting all the anecdotes
connected with or illustrative
of it, and has grouped and
classified them under appropri-
ate heads, and in a very attrac-
tive form.
The volume is profusely H.
lustrated with over 100 fine
engravings, by the first art
lists, and its contents include
"reminiscences of camp, picket,
spy, scout biyouac, siege, and
battlefield, with thrilling feats
of bravery, wit, drollery, com,
ical and ludicrous adventures,
etc., etc.
Amusement as wei. as in
structionm may be found in eve
ry page, as graphic detail, bril-
liant wit, and authentic history,
are skillfully interviewer in
this work of literary art.
1t is just such a volume as
will find numerous purchasers,
and just such a one as persons
seeking to act as book agents
should add to their list.

Presently.

NEVER say you will do presently what
your reason or your conscience tells you
should be done now. No man ever
shaped his own destiny or the destinles OF
others, wisely and well, who dealt much IN
presentlies. Look at nature. She never
postpones When the time arrives for the
buds to open, they open-for the leaves to
fall, they fall. Look upward. The SHINING
worlds never put off their risings or their
settings. The comets even, erratic as they
are, keep their appointments and ecllpses
are always punctual to the minute. There
are no delays in any Of the movements OF
the universe which have been pre- deter
mined by the absolute will of the Creator.
Procrastinatlon among the stars might IN
volve the destruction of innumerable sys-
tens; procrastination in the operations OF
nature on this earth might result in famine,
pestilence and the blotting out of the hui
man race. Man, however, being free
agent, can postpone the performance of
his duty; and he does so, too frequently
to his own destruction. The drafts drawn
by Incidence Upon the future are pretty
sure to be dishonored Make Now your
banker. Do not say you will economic
presently, for presently may be bankrupt;
nor that you will repent and make atone
ment presently, for presently you may be
judged. Bear in mind the important fact,
taught alike by the history of nations,
rulers and private individuals, that in at
least three.cases out of five, presently is
foo late .-
