KEEP THE HAIR UNBLEMIsHED.- Il am like
an old hemlock -withered at the top" said
venerable Indian Chief, pointing to his thin
and bleaching locks. Thousands of men and
women in civilized society, much younger than
the old Sycamore, are like him, ''withered at
the top" simply because they have neglected
to use the means of preserving and identifying
the hair which science had placed at their dis
posal. fLYoN's KATHARIoN be faithfully ap-
piled once or twice a day, to the fibres and the
scalp, it is just as impossible that the hair
should decay, wither, fall out and become
harsh and fuzzy, as that a meadow, duly re-
freshed with nightly dews and sunlit rains,
should become arid and barren of green blades.
This matchless preparation not only keeps the
hair alive and the skin of the head in healthy
and clean condition, but actually multiplies
the filaments and imparts to them a lustre,
flexible and wavy beauty unattainable by any
other mode of treatment. 1t does not, like the
metallic and sulphurous hair dyes, dry up the
natural moisture of the scalp, but supplies nu-
triment to the roots of the hair and vigor to the
hbres. apr29th-eod1w&w1t

AMONGST the symptoms of Consumption.
which present themselves as the disease pro-
crosses, are cold chills, cough, shortness of
breath, restlessness at night, loss of appetite,
loss of flesh, night sweats, hectic expectora-
tion of white mucous pellets, also yellow and
blush or gray matter, sometimes streaked with
blood: burning pains in the chest, diarrhna,
general prostration and incapacity for the or
dinary duties of life. As the patient becomes
reduced, other complications appear and he
rapidly sinks. A remarkable and very COM
mon physical sign among eonsumptives is their
exemption from alarm; notwithstanding the
dangerous character of their disease they be-
lieve in ultimate recovery. This very conf
dsnce prevents the patients from resorting to
the only means Of cure, and that watchfnlness
necessary in SO critical time until finally they
lapse into hopeless irrecovery Like the first
adventurous boatman that rowed down from

of destruction, and when he would retrace his
way he found the current too strong to stem.

A Modsst Aspirant:


Most men, when they become Of
fee seekers, are content with one of
fee, but occasionally there is an ex-
ception, and brother Wilmer, of the
Courier is an exception. He is now
serving his fifth term as Justice OF
the Peace, has served several terms
as Township Clerk, andisstill serving
as such, and now he is reaching out
his remorseless claws to clutch a
third office. The Doctor wants to
be judge-Probate Judge, and if
there are any other offices lying
around loose, no doubt he will be
glad to make them serViceable, and
will take all he can get sorrowing
only because they are limited Too
bad, Doctor, that you put upon your
Meek brother of Green Creek so, and
would not permit him even a single
office out of your abundance. 1t is
even suspected that modest and all
that as the Doctor is, he "put up"
that little matter before he went to
Cleveland from which point he tele-
graphed he would accept the nomi-
nation if offered. OF course he
would, Notwithstanding he had
promised Meek he would not be a
cpndidate, he would accept the
place if offered. That was kind of
him. Will the Doctor run all three
offices? that's the question.

Post Up.

AS the business man posts up his
books to know how he stands, SO it
is well occasionally for the politician
to do likewise, that he may judge of
his prospects.
So far as elections have been held,
this year, the result has been uni
formly successful for the Republican
party, and encouragingly so.
The campaign began in Congress,
with Sumner, Schurz, Trumbull, Tip
ton and others arrayed against
Grant, and desperately determined
upon a policy of anything to beat
Grant" What has been the result
so far.
New Hampshire, which last year
elected Democratic Governor and
Legislature, this year elected Re
publican Governor and a Republican
Legislature. That was the result in
March.
InApril, Connecticut gave a deci-
sive majority for a Republican Gov
ernor and Legislature.
Rhode Island followed, as usual,
with a Republican success.
In May, the disorganizers and self
styled Reformers, put their machin-
cry in motion, and started the tidal
wave of anything to beat Grant" in
motion. What followed?
Oregon, which had for years gone
Democratic, in June elected Re
publican Governor-and the tidal
wave didn't wave much.
Last month North Carolina voted.
The Democracy jollifed over 10000
majority, then 10000, then five, then
nothing, and Caldwell came out 1000
ahead. They then cried fraud and
threatened to contest. Then Merri-
mon concluded it wouldn't pay to
contest, and they have given up.
The tidal wave would not swell.
West Virginia, which was certain
ly expected to get the wave in mo-
ton, collapsed, and Jacobs, an Inde-
pendent for whom the Republicans
voted, placed Camden the Democrat
ic candidate hOrS dW combat. Sum
ner's argument to the negroes
that the Democrats were converted
and could be trusted was knocked
into cooked hat by the adop-
ton of the New Constitution, which
proscribes negros.

In 1860 there were in the States
which went into the rebellion 1885,
S67 farms. In 1870 the number
had Increased to 1,O32,21O. Does
this exhibit show that the Southern
States have been ground under the
heelgof oppression2 Does agricul-
ture flourish under despotism such
as the Greeley organs and orators
would have as believe has been exer-
cised over the South since the close
Of the war? What better proof is
needed of the beneficial legislation
of the Republican party, and the ex-
ecutive administration Of the laws,
than this simple and undeniable fact
that the South is more prosperous in
its agricultural pursuits than it ever
was before? The same holds good
as to its manufactures, which have
also largely increased. Four years
more of a Republican administration
will see the effects of the war almost
wholly obliterated in the peace and
prosperity which must inevitably
follow.

ORGANIC WEAKNESS.

distressing atictiOn, which renoers life miserable
and marriage impossible, is the penalty paid by
the victims of improper indulgence. Young per

pretend to deny that the procreaiOn is lost

of healthy offspring, the most serious destructive

DooLIrTLE has spoken. After q
heightened silence, letter from
Reverdy johnson to Doolittle has
forced him out of his hole, and he
makes a desperate effort to clear
himself from Connatty's charges.
He endeavors to confuse dates so
as to prove he could not have assist
ed Connatty to procure his cotton
permit, and then said:
never drew any letters or papers for Con-
natty to sign, before he came to my committee
rooms on Thursday the 29th of December,
1869. The only papers ever drawn by me In
relation to anv matter between him and me,
were drawn in his presence, at his suggestion,
and with his full assent and approval, upon a
full mutual understanding that such papers
were simply private and confidential memo
randa, to be preserved for the private use of
the parties themselves.
In that extract he admits all that
is claimed-that he did write the
letters for Connatty, and that one of
them proposed to give him one
quarter Of the net proceeds of the
speculation. But the best evidence
of all is the letters themselves which
are in possession Of the New York
Times, and are in Doolittle's hand
writing. No doubt Doolittle would
be glad to have them remain private

WHAT WILL THEY DO Now.-The
administration has administered an
other fearful blow, at the fortunes
of the Liberals, and it is somewhat
of wonder what the reformers will
do about it. During the last month
the administration has paid $10,-
736,635 of the public debt, making
in all, since Grants Inauguration
$348,l41, ,239. Johnson's administra-
ton paid $13,OOO,OOO. The differ
ence shows how much wiser it would
be for the people to retain the pres
ent administration than to attempt
to improve upon it with a man like
Greeley supported by the men who
supported Johnson.

The steamer Metis, was lost in
Long Island Sound, last week, dur
ing a storm at night. The darkness
was so intense that nothing could
be seen a few yards of, but the yes-
sci proceeded as if there WIS no dan
ger, collided with a schooner and
soon after began to fill, sinking in
less than one hour after the accident.
The first reports made the loss of
life very heavy, but later reports
put the number of lost at twenty
two. Geo. S. Harris, Commissioner
of Ohio, was among those on board,
but was taken from the wreck by the
cutter Moccasin. The scene is de-
scribed as fearful. The worst fea-
ture of the case is that after the col
lision the Captain made no examina-

age had been done, when he might
have run the boat ashore had he
known how badly it was damaged.

in which the 'sstraignts" regard the man who

there are at least thirty thousand in Indiana
