ANOTHER of those interesting Circle Socia-

this evening at u o'clock. Singing, select

Hannaburgh. Admission 20 cents
THE attention of our readers is called to the
advertisement of THE CHARTER OAK LIFE IN
sURANcE Co. of Hartford, Conn. This Com
pany is well known as one of the Oldest and
most substantial institutions of its kind in the
country. 1t has been most carefully managed
during its business career of over twenty-one
years. Though one of the most conservative
parties in existence, it has always been the
leader in matters of improvement in the science
of Life Insurance, and has been the originator
of many of the most valuable features which
have been added to the business during the
past few years. 1t now presents new plan,
which is highly recommended by all whose at
tention has been directed to it, This plan, De-
post Insurance, certainly possesses some very
marked improvements over any other plan of
insurance with which we are acquainted. To
those "who live long and prosper" it yields very
handsome returns as an investment, and to
those who die it affords the benefits of insur-
ance at rates far below those elsewhere offered
on any short endowments, for which this is a
substitute. But its chief and admirable provis-
ion is for the withdrawal of payments, by those
who desire so to do, at the end of any policy
year. The amount allowed to be withdrawn is
definitely specified for each year, and is very
large proportion of the total payment to the
Company. We are confident that in advising
our readers to investigate this plan we are do
ing them a service. The Company or its agents
will afford full information of the plan to any
one addressing them ON the subject. d&w1t

VITALIZE THE HAIR.-Why does the hair be-
come harsh and dry-why does it fall out-why
does it become gray? Simply because the life
has gone out of it, The fibers draw susie
nance from the scalp as the grass draws ali
ment from the soil, and when the supply of nu-
triment is cut off in either case the product
withers and dies, AT the first symptom of de-
cay, therefore, the unfed and half-fed roots of
the hair should be refreshed and reinforced
with LYONS KATHAIRoN, the only preparation
which will nourish the filaments, and keep
them in vigorous condition after they have
begun to suffer from deficiency of their nat
ural stimulant AS long as the Katharion is
faithfully used, with proper degree of friction
morning and evening, so long will it be impos-
sible for the hair to whiten or fall out from the

What u Wretch that Greeley.

According to the Long Branch Re.
publican journals, Horace Greeley, du-
ring the war, was all the while in col
lusio.i with the Rebels TO burn down
New York, to upset the Croton Water
Works, Nc, &c.,-to say nothing OF
his being u Coppcrhead and a Seccss-
iOnist.
But what is wonderful is.-that the
Republicans twice could have run such
Il rascal for Congressional for Comp
trollcr offered him a foreign mission,
then elected him to frame n Constitu
ton for the ~State,--and then, Roscoe
Conkling and the like helping, almost
nominating lin in Republican State
Convention, TO be Governor Of the
great Empire State of New York What
a set of wretches all around!
Upon the whole, the Express thinks
it had rather support Greeley. who
would thus turn the Hudson up stream,
or cut us off from Croton water, than
the fellows who endorsed all this crime
by trying to give him all these offices.
But we, Democrats, saved the country
from that wretch Greeley, then and
now, we intend to save the country
from the worse wretches that then en-.
dorsed.- N. Y. Express.

gentleman named Adams, who, natu

"oblivious of the fact that he is Gov.

he has failed, most signally failed, In
stead of regarding his elevation to the
Presidency an honor, he looked upon
it as a due, and his idea OF the Prcsi-

out Of which as much profit for himself
