A NEW ROUTE TO BosroN.-The New Ha. ven, Middletown and Willimantic Railroad which forms the intermediate link of the Air Line Route between New York and Boston, has progressed so rapidly towards completion within the past half year, that the Directors of the enterprise announce their intention to open it to business be. fore the close of 1870. - -A .,<L
 The entire length of the road is only nf- ty.two miles. It extends from New Haven to Wiliimantic, and passes through Mid dlstown, which lies shout midway between the two. Connecting with the New York and New Haven and the Boston, Hartford and Erie Roads at it's Western and Eastern termini. it forms an important link in the most direct route between New York and Boston, saving about twenty miles of the distance via Springfield on the North and New London on the South. The nscessity for such line has been felt for many years and its completion will deyslope Q large and we'll established local traffic. It's prin- cipal business, however, will be derived from its position as section of the main thoroughfare between New York and Bos. ton--although, its local traffic would moro than iustify the construction of longer and more costly road. Each of the eight roads with which 1t directly connects, as well as others now building. will also con- tribute largely to its probable business; and very modest estimate of the annual earnings of the company promises hand some percentage of net profits on the cost of construction and equipment. sd3 To secure the completion of the enter. prise within the time specified. the Com. pany is now offaring its per cent.

MRS. ALIENS
Hair Restorer & Zylobalsamum
Are SO uniformly grateful and benef-
cial, that they are with justice called
the natural strengtheners of the human
hair. They are two entirely separate
and distinct preparations, not to be used
together at one time.
Mrs. Aliens Hair EeestOrer
Never fails to satisfy the most refined
and cultivated. Aguarantee goes with
every bottle, that it will quickl y restore
gray or white hair to its original youth
full beauty, gloss and color; after its
use few times the hair will grow
thicker and stronger. 1t will stop its
falling and induce healthy and luxu.
RANT growth. 1t is an exquisite hair
dressing, agreeable, harmless and
healthy. Entirely different from most
other preparations for the hair, its COM
position and ingredients are nourishing,
giving life and vigor to the Roots.
Mrs. Allen~ ZylObalsaInum
This exquisite preparation is free
from any sediment, and is a toilet
treasure. The urgent want of simple
Hair Dressing, for the youth of both
sexes, first induced the manufacture
of the Zylobalsamum, and the sale oft
is perfectly immense, not only in this
country, but in Europe.
EXTRACTS FROM A FEW LETTERS.
Your Zylobalsamum is used by every mem-
Der, young and old, of our family, and we con-
slider II invaluable. Should any gray hairs
appear, we shall try your Hair Restorer, which
we hear very highly spoken Of"
" Father and mother use your Hair Restorer,
and are delighted with it. II soon restored their
gray locks TO their youthful color, but daughters
and son still find in the zylobalsamum all their
hair requires"
From the Principal of one Of our large Female
Seminaries. "Your Zylobalsamum has been
used for many years by myself and family, and ia
the favorite among our young ladies'"

CLOSE OF EIGHTEENTH VoLUME.-Ths is
rue Of the HERALD closes the eighteenth vol
ume and year of its age. For eighteen long
years has the HERALD kept on its steady and
undertaking course in the advocacy of the
true interests of the people of this county,
State, and General Government, material and
political, adhering TO and defending the doc
trines of that party that gained our liberties,
established our Government and made it
what it was in 1S61-the freest, purest,
proudest Government known to history; she'd
ding its blessings, like the dews of Heaven,
On all alike, shielding with Its banner and
protecting by its laws thirty millions of the
happiest people on Gods foot-stool To a
return to those days of comparative non-tax-
alton, and honesty and efficiency in the adj
ministration of State, National and county
affairs will the HERALD continue to 20 battle
The history of the Herald and its publisher
is well known to the people of the county
and to them we leave the question whether
it should be better supported or not, simply
remarking that as the next issue will com
mence the nineteenth volume it would be al
appropriate time for new subscribers to sent
in their names

WANT OF COOP SENSE. ant of good
sense has induced many Republicans and
Mongrel journals to suppose, and actually
assert and publish it as fact, that the sym
pathies of the Southern people were with
Napoleon and the French in their fight with
Prussia. If there are any Governments on
earth which the Southern people do and
should hate, it is Queen Victoria's first, and
Louis Napoleon's second. 1t was these two
Governments that had made the South be-
lieve it would be recognized and the block
ade raised, which would have insured its
success, and it was the failure of that rec
ogniton, and the continuance of the block
ade that conquered the South and not the
Northern armies. For these reasons, Gen.
Joseph f. Johnston may with truth say that
the sympathies of the South are not with
Louis Napoleon!

IGNORANT AND Vicious. White Pine
Ne,cs perpetrates a dirty SANDER on Senator
Casserly from shameful ignorance or vile
maliciousness-perhaps both. After every
other paper on the coast knows and admits
the fact that Senator Casserly paired off with
Senator Morrill, of Maine, on the income tax
bill by which his vote counted against the
bill just the same as if he had been present,
this ignorant creature repeats the false
charge, and that, too, in the vilest language.

Nor EXACTLY Last week our neighbor
charged that an attempt had been made to
connect the actions of the Supervisors with
the Republican party; this was not true of
us, or 80 far as we know was politics even
mentioned by any man in the county of Ell
ther party, in connection with the matter un-
til it appeared in the Stripes. lfthe Stripes
wishes it to take that shape, we are more
than willing SO far as it is concerned, but the
great mass of the Republican party are not
with the Stripes, if that is to be an issue,
If the article in the Stripes headed "Dem-
ocratic Precedents" was not intended as d
justification of the present Board of Super
visors, by comparison, then for what object
was it written? That was the honest CON
struction we placed upon it, and it was the
construction that nine -tenths of all who read
it placed upon it. Why use the heading
democratic precedents," if it was not to
justify some one ese's actions by these prec-
edents. The Stripes now says that it never
intended to even hint that Fannon, Rogers,
Madden, Patton and Banvard got too much
for their work, and that the arraying of these
gentlemen's names and the long lists of fig
ures had no connection with the actions of the
present Board Then what did all these figures
mean unaccomponied by dny explanation of
the services rendered? Why search the rec
ords back seven years and give place to a
garbled portion of them if they were not in
tended to apply to and be plead in justifca-
tion of something now attempted to be done.
We repeat, we placed the only construction
upon the article in question it was susceptible
of elciting, as we said last week, if it had
any application to any subject. We hope
our neighbor, when he gets up such another
hash, will get somebody to write under it il
plain language Just what it does mean.
