The Admission of Southern States

Tho bill to admit North Carolina;
South Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia
aud Florida, to representa- 10
Congress, provides, in view of the
fact that each Of those States has, by
d large @vVf,;y vote, oontormed to
the requirements Of the Reeonstruc.
ton Act of March 2, 1867, that they
shah be entitled to representation 10
Congress, as States IN the Union,
whenever the Legislatures of these
StatOs shall have ratified what is
known as the llth Amendment to
the Constitution. This, however, dc.
peuds upon the fundamental oondi.
tion that none Of those States shall
deny or abridge the rights now pos.
sesSed TO the elective franchise, by
reason or on account Of race or color,
excepting Indians not taxed. In
the case Of Georgia il is required that
she shall declare null aud void a por.
ton of the 9th article of her consti-
tuition, 1t is also provided that the
provision above mentioned, shall take
effect as to each State, whenever the
President shall officially proclaim the
ratification by its legislature, of tho
lith Amendment is also provid.
@l that the President shall officially
proclaim the fact ofratifeatiou with.
in ten days after he has received in
telligenoo thereof Provision is also
made for the assembling of the Leg
isla,uros Of these States, within thirty
days after the passage Of tho act.
Such then are the conditions which
arc put forth with view to the ad.
mission to representation in Congress
of Eve oftho original seeding States.
The interests of the country demand
its early passage. No good can come,
either TO the party in power or to the
nation at large. from a failure to do
this before Congress shall have ad-
iourned over tha hot mouths of sum

A Hint to Bald-Headed People.

Frederick Kemp writes from the
silver mines of Montana to the Her
aid of Health, giving the following
hint in reference to cure for bald.
headeduess "A friend of mine,
who had the misfortune to be bald
headed, knowing that there is won
derful invigoratiug power in the suns
rays, last spring threw away his hat,
and worked in the gulch all spring,
summer and fall bareheaded, and also
for the first few days at mid day.
For few days the rays of the hot
sun on his head were almost unon
durable; after that time he expert.
enced no uueasiness whatever. The
result was that in the fall he had a
good head of hair. Aud in this ex.
pertinent he was not alone. Several
of his acquaintauces, who we're bald.
headed, having followed the same
plan, they were all fortunate enough
to experience the same result"
The editor adds that similar case
once came under his own observation
and Processes to have no doubt that
the exposure Of the skin to the air
and sunshine, under proper circum-
stances, stimulates it to a healthy ac-
ton, aud with it those glands upon
which the growth of tho hair de-
pends."

The friends of Gen, Gibson in Sen.

In an article displaying an over

Gen. Gibson by his own indofati-
gable industry and energy, in little
over three weeks, raised in the fall
Of 1861, a regiment Of as bravo a
men as ever went forth to batllo, ia

out his three years on the tented

ing politician, ever ready to lift up
his voice in the cause oc freedom, ho
has done good service in the repub.

lawyer, he stands at the head Of the
profession in the district and as n
citizen he is respected aud loved by
all who know him, aud il the Dis.

Chase and the Democracy.


The great political query seems TO
be- will the democracy nominate Mr.
CnAsE for the Prosi dcDey2 In our
humble opinion, Notwithstanding
that many democratic papers have
come boldly 10 his support, the
Democratic party will be true to their
ancient creed, consistent with their
past history and nominate man
whom they know to be "natiyo and
10 the manor born" Mr.. CuAsE
with his past record Of abOlitionism,
is two woody a pin for them to swal-
low,--the very thoughts would turn
their weak and bocry stomachs.
Ills known loyalty, IS another most
serious oJcclion,--in fact most
vital one. Canada suoaks, draft
skcdndlors, aud bounty Jumpers,
colldu't conscientiously vote for him.
True, he has seemed to favor with
lenicnay that Grand Mogul oftraitors--
JEFF DAVls,-but ho doesn ! say he
loves him and the "lost cause" nor
drinks he his health in Confederate
whiskey Neither Is he in favor Of
their great pet theory Of 'ropudiatio1,
which quite jemoralizcs the Demo
cratic skirmishcs in his behalf
Therein lies their brilliant prospect Of
success in the West,--Grst greenbacks
aud then reputation. No, hc will
never do for them. Salmon Is "big
FISH" but they cant force their hook
into his mouth, aud hence they will
have to angle in other waters.
Let our friends rest assured tEat
Notwithstanding Mr.. CuAsE's QUO
great ambition is to be President aud
that he will do anything consistent or
inconsistent, to achieve that end, his |
past history will ruin his prospects in
the Democratic Convention. An un.
mistakablo simon puro Copporhcad,

Ratification Of an Indian Treaty.
WASHINGTON, juno G.

w AsIIlNdToN, juno 9.
Tho Senate, to-day. after an exec
utivo session of nearly three hours,
ratified a very important Indian trea .
", by which all controversy relative
to tho so.called Cherokee neutral
lands in Kansas, is closed. These
lands wcro, in the first instance, sold
by Secretary Harlan, who held them
in trust for the Indians to the Amer.
lean Emigrant Company. Their sale
was subsequently set aside by Secre.
tary Browning, who made new sale
to James Z. Joy of Detroit. The
first purchasers thereupon prepared
TO take the case into the Courts, and
a long and expensive lawsuit was in
prospect. The parties to tho new
treaty are understood to be the In
dians representing tho Cherokee ma
ton. Tho Emigraut Company and
Mr.. JOY and all other parties are
now entirely satisfied with the ar.
raugemont, aud the matter will be at
once withdrawn from litigation.
Prcemptors under tho original treaty
have their rights carefully protected
under the now treaty which il is un-
dcrstood was negotiated by Hon, Mr..
Grinnol, late member of congress from
Iowa. Tho settlement thus made
will have direct and most beneficial
effect upon the building of one hund.
red aud City miles Of railroad in
Kansas, link of tho Galveston line.
The salo will result in the payment
of 81 200, 900 to the Cherokee nation.
