Hair Vag0r,
For restoring to Gray 7 Hair its
natural Vitality and Color.

hair is thickened, fallen hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the folliclcs are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that a new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
Of fouling the hair with pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
It's occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning grey or falling oil, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration Of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandruff, which is often so I'M
clearly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustre, and grateful perfume.

After the Election.


The New York Herald says in refer
encc to the contest which closed last
week in the reelection OF Gen. Grant:
No matter how much politicians may
havo cndcavored TO cvadc tho true is
sues of the campaign which has ust
closed, the majority OF the people in
sisted on looking at the Issue as con-
tinuation of the struggle OF rebellion.
The masses of the North look with APP
prchcnsion on any change that might
cndangcr the issues settled BY the sur
render of Lee, and though on many
points they differed from the administra-
ton. and wish especially to see more
generous policy adopted towards the
South, yet they sacrificed every minor
issue to the safety of the Union. Right
" or wrongly, the election Of Greeley
was looked upon by the masses in the
North as n practical consent to a rcvcr-
sal of the issue Of the war, and sooner
than expose the country to the danger
of any such experiment the people re-
solved 10 maintain the administration
of General Grant. They did so in the
hope that rs soon as hi, lease OF power
was secured he would hasten to get rid
of the party advisers whose counsels
has brought his government into con-
tempt and raised up enemies to the adj
minstration. who regretted the ncccs-
sitv of arraying themselves against the
soldier who had led the Union armies
TO victory.
The Couricr-Jouanal, which, we be-
lcvp, was represented at the Cincinnati
Convention, says:
1t will be remembered that we cid
not rejoice at the original nomination
of Mr.. Greeley; but we are now free
to say that his conduct during the cam.
paign greatly raised him in our esteem
| and respect. 1t was open and manly.
His speeches will long remain rs mo-
dcls Of wisdom and cloquence, and as
monuments to his generosity and pa
triotism. They did "A deal to satisfy the
doubts of those who had questioned
his claims to craftsmanship. and they
entirely dissipaled the prcjudices of the
Southern people. In spite of them and
the efforts of the most representative
men OF the Democratic party, he was
defeated. Our only regret is that he
was not elected. The Liberal move

suit of the October elections shattered

Texas.

The people of Texas were required,
at the late election, to vote upon
change in the constitution Of the State.
Section of article 10, which is the enc
for which the proposed amendment is
to be substituted, provides that "thc
Legislature shall not hereafter grant
lands to any person or persons, nor shall
any certificate tor land be sold at the
Land Office, except to actual settlers up
on the same, and in lots not exceeding
100 acres" The Marshall east Texas

mcnt is to allow the State to use some
portion of its vast public domain,
amounting to the enormous quantity of
92,5OO000 acres, for the purpose Of in
ternal improvement.

Corn and Wheat.

The st. Louis Democrat closes care
full review of the corn and wheat mar
ket with these conclusions:
First, that we have more wheat in the
country now than we had at this time
last year; second, that our corn crop is
also much larger; third, that Great
Britain will buy corn Of us nd hbttnm,
and wheat when the price suits her;
fourth that wheat will be more or less
firmly held in this country throughout
the winter; fifth, that corn will much
more enter home consumption rs u
breadstuif; and sixth, that just upon the
eve of the wheat harvest Of 1873 it will
suddenly be discovered that wheat is in
excessive supply, and the attempt to
rush it into market may cause Il decline
as much too low as the present price is
too high. 1t will be well for our grain
operators to study all of these things

Dog VS.. Sheen.

Official reports Jlow in Ohio an an
nual loss of sheep of Sl,0OO,OO0 in inju-
ries--a loss equivalent to G,0oO,0OO lbs. of
wool, or a tax of two per cent. upon the
total sum invested in sheep in that
State. It's said that in two wears, from
1865 TO 1870, Illinois sank from the sixth
to the ninth rank among the STATES in the
number and value of its sheep, and this
great falling Off is attributed to the pro-
portionatc increase in the number of
dogs, and the lack of proper legislation
to prevent their ravagcs among the
sheep. In Maryland, the returns from
five counties report over |, 100 sheep
killed in one year by dogs.

OvcrgrOWn Hogs.

The Hartford Times makes season.
able remark about hogs:
There is not one single advantage to
be claimed in favor of big hogs. There
never was monster hog which did not
make the man who raised him pay for
every pound he weighed. They do not
furnish an ounce of meat gratis. but
charge full price for every atom otthcir
carcass. When slaughtered. it takes =
long time TO get one cool to the marrow
in the bone, and then when the hams are
put in salt, it is troublesome TO finish
them to the centre. Four hundred live
weight, is as large rs hogs should be in
order to make good bacon. Beyond this
size there is loss somewhere Either
the feeder, butcher or consumer is cheat
ed, and rs general thing every one who
has anything TO do with the big hog
will find, if he observes closely, that
they are not so profitable aS the smooth.
nice log Of only $50 pounds weight. A
small head, with little upright ears.
and legs and ears delicate to perfection,
are marks which indicate the greatest
amount of food consumed; and it will
always draw more readily the attention
