EX-PRESIDENT JOHNSON NOT A
CANDIDATE FOR CONGRESS-.

Some of the friends of ex President
Andrew johnson have called on him and
earnestly solicited him to become a candi-
date for Congress, which he very politely
and as positively refuses to do.
There is no man in our District that we
would support SO cheerfully as our honored
eI-President for any position that he would
accept. He would be a tower of strength
and terror before the enemy, causin q
them to quake. But we have been assured
and re- assured that he Las no idea of being
q candidate for Congress. So then friends
and foes may dispel their hopes and fears
on that score and look to some other Ajax
who will WELD the two edged sword in the
coming Aght.-GreeneOjUo Union, Aug.

well as to boatmen in particular.
The Lacrosse Leader Of Sunday says of
Upper Mississippi matters ''Unless the
stage of water improves, all the large boats
are to be laid up at once, and light draft
boats put on, so as to insure better time
and a more prompt delivery of freight. The
City Of st. Paul has been laid up here and
her place taken by the Victory. The Keo-
kuk is also to be laid up to-day, and tbs

Gotten spinnIng in Russia.

Russia, it would seem, is making great
progress in cotton manufacturing industry,
drawing her supplies of the raw material
from Central Asia. It is stated on the
authority of Frankfort correspondent to a
Western journal, that this industry already
employs 1870, 600 workmen, and its products
equal 800, 900, 900 per annum. The same
authority states that the importation of
Asiatio cotton by Russia has increased nine
folds within eleven years, and that the
greater portion of which again returns to
TO Central Asia in the shape of fabrics.
Russia has within few years annexed a
vast extent of territory in Central Asia,
north of the Anglo Indian possessions, and
bids fair in few years to obtain dominion
from the Caspian to the Yellow Sea. 1t is
no doubt this expansion of territory and
rivalry in cotton spinning which has ex-
cited so much jealousy on the part of the
English, of late.

The Growth

ing. Instances are on record where III mas
reached over six feet, and even now In
some parts of Europe the women are noted
for the aneness and length of their hair,
and make business of selling their beau
tiful tresses. Under the stern auspices,
however, of modern civilization, led by
that very tyrant, Dame Fashion, the human
hair seems to have grown weak. There
seems to be a something which hinders its
growth-a want of proper nourlshment, and
sometimes the most lovely of the beau sexe
are compelled to resort to the hair dresser
to supply what nature has taken from them.
Let all such try Ls Creole Hair Restorer.
1t contains what analysis has proved to be
the food of the hair, and hence promotes
its growth. At the same time La Creole
Hair Restorer, by removing dandruf and
foreign particles which clog the pores, pre-
vents the accumulation of a heating mass
which is sure, sooner or later, to take away
the life of the hair. For sale by all drug
