CRYSTAL DISCOVERY:
1T affords me much pleasure to bear testimo-
ny us to tho efficacy of your Crystal Discovery.
Some years since, while in India, suffered from
4 severe fever peculiar to the country. On my
recovering a patch Of hair on the left side Of my
head became perfectly white, without at all at
tcctine the remainder To remove this unsightly
appearance | had recourse to various prcpara-
tions, both in Europe and in this, country; but
they all had one great dctcct--thcy dyed the
hair black Now, with your Crystal Discovery
can get the desired shadc-thc natural color OF
my hair being dark brown | consider your
Discovery the best preparation l know of.
Yours truly, ,
Now as the fact becomes more patent every
day that the various dirty and filthy preparations
advertised rs Reviewers, Rcstoratives, &c, arc
but compounds of Sugar of Lead and Sulphur,
and therefore should be Stunned by all who
value their health, it is reallya matter Of sur
prise that the demand for NATTANS CRYS-
tai DISCOVERY, admitted to be perfectly
harmless, and yet accomplish ALL and more, than
the poisonous articles claim to do, should have
increased so rapidly. 1t restores the color and
growth of the hair positively in a few days;
strengthens the roots, makes an excellent dress
ing solling neither clothes nor scalp; but on tho
contrary it gives the scalp 4 pure and ceanly
look, removing all dandrutf and scurf. 1t is the
most economical preparation in use. Put up in

The Income Tax Nuisance.

The returns OF the Income Tax the
present year (says the New York Day
Dook,) show that the gross amount col
lected will scarcely pay thc cost of the
official service to obtain it. Why then do
Giant & Co. insist upon keeping this in-
Fiction upon the people? simply to re-
tain in Office Il horde of dronca, who can
be made scryiceaLlc to him when the
time comes to vote; but who are scrvicea-
bic to the people ut large in 40 way what
ever. Time was, when oiiice-holders
were elected and appointed TO serve the
people. That time has passed away, it
appears. They are kept i'll their places
as tools of the reigning power, to do little
or no work, and arc supported by honest
industry, to be subject to the orders of
any demagoguo who may need their vote.

Tur DISCRIMINATION OF LAuRENs-

The DETERMINATION OF LAURENs.-
The one absorbing subject was the taxes,
and we heard but one opinion expressed,
viz: That the people cannot and will not
paw them. This determinations not the
resultof excitement or under passion, but
it arises fromaa conviction on the part of
the property-holders that in this wayahd
in this only3can they protect themselves
and their property, from the Shylocks of
the Scott. dynasty, who would, if possible,
take the last pound Of flesh. Calmly have
they determined, and, if necessary, they
will stand by it to the bitter end. They
feel themselves unable to meet the extra
ordinary demands made upon them, even
if they believed it Just and they We're
willing, and if they must lose the little
that is left them, the opinion prevails that
it is better to lose it in manly effort to
protect it rather than let it go voluntarily
into the hands of the -harpies who are
daily feeding upon our vitals. All the
bavonets that Grant can spare from his
elections cannot alter this feeling and de-
termination, andif our property is forced
upon the block it will require larger ar
my than the one at his disposal to protect
the new purchasers. The people will not
submit.-Laurensville Herald

Important Counsel to the southern

People.
The address of the Democratic Congress
men to the people of the country has been
issued, and is signed by fourteen sena-
tors and ninety-fve members OF the
House. From the concluding portions
of the address, the following is extracted:
Everything that malicious ingenuity
could suggest has been done to irritate
the people of the Middle and Southern
States. Gross and exaggerated charges
of disorder and violence owe their origin
70 the mischievouS minds Of potential
managers in the Senate and House of
REPRESENTATIVES,, to which the EXecu-
tive has, we regret to say, lent his aid,
and thus helped to inflame the popular
feelings. In all this course of hostile
legislation and harsh resentment, no word
of Cancellation, of kind encouragement,
or fraternal feeling, has ever been spoken
by the President, or by Congress, to the
people of the Southern Statcs-they have
been addressed in the language of pro-
scription. We earnestly entreat our fel-
low-citizens in all parts of the Union to
spare no effort to maintain peace and or
der, to carefully protect the rights OF
every citizen, to preserve kindly rela-
tons among all men, and to discounte-
nance and discourage any violation of the
rights of any portion of the people secured
under the constitution, or any OF its
amendments. And in conclusion, ear
nestly beg of YOU not to aid the present
attempts of Radical partisans to stir up
strife in the land, to renew the issues OF
war, to obstruct the return of peace and
prosperity 70 the Southern States, because
it is thus that they seek to divert the at
tantion of the country from the corrup-
ton and extravaganza in their admins
tration of public affairs, and the danger
Gus and prohigatc attempt they are ma
king towards the creation Of q centralized
military government.
