THE POST OFFICE NUISANCE remains un-
abated. Our worthy Marshal actually stop
ped it for one night, and actually did put
one boy out doors. 1t is supposed that he
imagined that he had done his duty by that
act, for he has never interfered since. The
nuisance is intolerable, and if the proper
authorities do not remove it, then let citi-
zens consider themselves special police and
remove it for them Another and q much
less reputable practice is that of a crowd of
loafers, who stand night after night, at mail
time, obstruc.ing passage, and engaged in
the gentlemanly amusement of staring
ladies out Of eountenance, and passing re-
marks on their personal appearance. 1t
often happens that ladies' are forced to 90
to the post Office at these hours, and as sure
as the hour arrives, so do the loafers
"Gapping at ladies' may be fun for them, it
has always been considered one of their
constitutional prerogatiyes, but if justice
was dealt out to them it would instantly
cease. We could publish half column of
names of those following this practice; We
would no. like to do SO unless circumstances

The amount of attention bestowed upon
the Human Hair is something marvellous to
contemplate. Poets have made it the bur-
den of MANY sweet refrain, and blooming
msidens of many anxious thoughts and
sieepless nights. At last, however, the ques.
ton how to obtain beautiful head Of Lux
urians and Glossy Hair, has been set at rest
by the general use of"BARRErT's VEGETABLE
HAIR RESTORATIVE" This admirable prep
sration overtops everything in the line Of
HAIR RESTORERS and REVIEWERS.
Nc stronger evidence need be offered to
satisfy the public that this article is superior

QUIET reigns supreme our city has .
police record for the past season that will
put many to shame. No one seems dispos-
ed to be fractions at present, no one com
mits highway robbery. There are no fights
or rows, no robberies, and all is calm and
serene. The Squire resembles UtheIlo, of
old he has disposed of every stray fly in
the Office, the room is as clean as parlor
and there is nothing now for him to do. He
thinks he will have to take in washing or 60
to saving wood soon, for he has no cases, no
nothing, something or anything to do. We
suggest lottery scheme in which brass
dollars and pewter Prussian coin shall form
an important part.

| INJuRIsG THE COUNTY CREDIr. - The
recent false charges made by the Union
upon the management of the equity
fnances-charges that the writer knew
were false at the time, but which were made
for the purpose Of abusing the democratic
chairman of the finance committee, nave
had the effect to greatly injure tho cre'i' oil
the county with our bankers. "no have been
| accommodating the coaay' we cannot
blame them for Refusing to longer accommo-
date the county when a journal, for the sake
of party spite, will thus abuse aud impagn
H., motives. The writer of the article was
seserly repremanded by one of our bankers
yesterday, for his false and malicious attack
upon the county management, when he
tried to excuse himself by saying it was
mistake. When informed that he was told
by the republican county clerk that the
charges were false, and also told by
others that it was wrong, lie wilted, and
sneaked away with the full consciousness of
having merited the contempt of one of the
soundest and most influential republicans
in the county.
The Union is now pursuing the same course
with the city in its weak attempts to injure,
Mayor Skinner and the credit of the CITY,
The result of this kind of partisan spite only
hurts the city. Mayor SINNERS adminstra-
ton has the endorsement of the best citizens
and while all Of his acts may not have pleas
ed the Union, he is pronounced the best
Mayor the city ever had by large majority
of the best men of both parties. The point
that the Union attempts to make against the
Mayor is the Improvements on Rock Island
street and if we are rightly informed, Aid
Woods. the Republican Alderman from the
Third Ward, says the Improvements made
there were made on his recommendation
and without the knowledge of Mayor Skin
uep. This fact alone is sufficient to con
denim the Onion in its ruinous search for
capital upon which TO conduct the city
election next spring. Its last attempt to
crisicise the financial management of Mayor
Skinner will bring it into contempt just as
in It's false charges about couaty affairs
have done. II speaks in an indefinite,
insinua.ing way, but we think when it gets
fairly down to business, and is prepared for
facts, and comes out with its financial
statements" it will wish the subject had
not been called up. Mayor Skinner has
