But such as remain can be saved for
usefulness by this application Instead
of fouling the hair with posty sedi-

Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. Free

the Atlantic coast all the precautions
known to medical science are being

ulation has been destroyed by it. Very
little has been published about its pro
gress in Russian Poland, but it IS quite
certain that many persons have died Of
cholera at Warsaw, LoWiez. and other
prominent points, and that the epidemic
spread with such rapidity over Western
Poland that the Prussian Government
was suddenly obliged to adopt vigOr-
Gus measures to prevent the cholera
from entering East Prussia, Posen aud

A rRuITLEss VICTORY.

Historic Charleston, the city OF the
mast but the corporation Of the present
has overthrown the carpetbag govern
ment that has SO long afflicted IL There
is great JOY among the people, but it
win be short. Do the people OF that
place forget that so long as the Grant
party is in power the State OF South
Carolina can have no peaeeg That old
Commonwealth, by general consent OF
is enemies, is to bear the brunt OF
tyrauuy, aud be the target of every
bloated sportsman who swills the Gov
eminent slops, and wipes his mouth on
the coupons attached to the bonds Of the
United States. Why, the human vernnn
can crawl over that city and defy the
heel of gentlemen, They are the repre-
sentativss of the departure that di-
vorees power from intelligence and
mites il to ignorance; tliss digs gulf
between virtue and vice, and con-
struets and dedicates monument to
rascaliiy. The people of Charleston
will not be allowed to enjoy the fruits Of
their victory. Twenty years after Cal
houns last breath was drawn horde
swoops down upon his dust There was
never horde more malignant. There
can never be horde with meaner
souls aud more disgusting bodies.
They have reduced robbery to a
system, and thrown around it the sane
ton of law. The theory Of government
is changed. Our poor old fathers
thought that government was Of the
people, and meant for the people. The
statesmen of to-day laugh at SO absurd
a dogma. These noble old fellows, just
emerged from the battle-felds Of the
Revolution, knew nothing OF plum
der. but, SCARED and bleeding. mis-
takenly erected a government upon
such principles as made theft a
crime and the thief infamous. No.
Grants Government will not tolerate
the victory Of the people Of Charles
ton. Whether by the bayonet in the
hands of a negro, or by the courts that
harmonize the Judiciary with the spirit
that prompts the legislation Of Congress,
the Radicals will still hold power there
Mark the prediction. Carolina is to be
punished and plucked, and her histori-
cal city is to be kept down.

GLADSTONE.

Longevity Of Gladstone. Lord Palmer
ston once said of him; He will first
ruin the Constitution of Great Britain,
and then die in mad-house Singular
to say, all British organs now acknowl-
edge that Gladstone has violated the
Constitution in the manner in which be,
By royal warrant abolished the purchase
system. Since that time the great ex-
eitement attending the boisterons scenes
in Parliament has nearly killed him,
and he now looks mere wreck. Great
fears are entertained that the Premier
cannot hold out much longer. Already
John Bright and Childers have to retire
from this most extraordinary liberal
Cabinet and il Gladstone does not 'ex-
aetly die in a mad-house, he certainly
to-day is fast failing in health, his la
borious life leaving him dead to all
friendly suggestions for rest or relief
from overwork.

Of last Thursday Though the griev-
ances may be heavy and hard to be en-
dured under the present Constitution,
yet as the Convention could not be held
according to the terms Of the Constitus
ton which it was proposed to amend, it
strikes us that the result is not TO be re-
GREETED. The Constitution, as it now
exists. provides that a Constitutional
Convention cannot be held uuless ap-
thorized BY two-thirds Of each house Of
the Legislature. The Senate by two
thirds vote favored the call for a new
Convention, but only majority Of the
House. Had the people, therefore, voted
for Convention, it would not have been
in accordance with the provisions Of the
Constitution.

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, August lO.--0no of the
first acts Of Commissioner Douglas has
been the abolishing Of the confidential
position IL the office, held for a while by
Clifford Thompson. The correspond
ence with which he was charged is sent
10 the same division as other cores
pondenee, to be attended to by special
clerks.
This position has always been at least
capable of being made an easy approach
to The chief Of the Bureau by those who
had schemes which they would not dare
to breach directly.
AS temporary service is gradually
provided ON the failing mail routes in
the Southwestern States, the result
shows but little increased expenditure,
and that only in Texas, upon the long
and remote overland routes. II was IN
ticipated by the Postmaster General that
these routes would Increase the expense
Of the mail service over and above that
of last year, because Of the large immi-
grafton, which would necessitate new
postoifices and new routes. The data
received at the Postofiiee Department
warrant the estimate that about one
hundred thousand people have settled IN
Texas during the past year. 1t must be
understood, unlike many other Depart
ments Of the Government, the mail ser
vice isiconstantly Increasing, and hence
the duties Of the Postotiiee Department
become more responsible from year to
year. ~ Stbbe$
