Every wear increases the popu!ari-
" of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due TO merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
anditis the only reliable and perfect
cd preparation for restoring GRAY
or FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrouS, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruf, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nOurishes
the hair-glands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
VIII create 4 new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco

as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. 4. A. Hayes, MD,

How Beecher Prepares his Sermons.
The Chicago Adrance tells how Nj
Beecher prepares his sermons:

The Chicago Adrance tells how Mr..
Beecher prepares his sermons:
"lf one will prepare, as Mr.. Beecher
does, by, first, much study, and, second,
much brooding, it may be safe to follow
his example further, though probably only
very facile workers will be able to do so.
During the week two or three topics lie in
his mind as those from which he will most
probably select his next Sabbath dis
courses. His thoughts turn to them his
pencil sometimes, though not often, jots
them down--the sermon, however, is rare
ly definitely outlined in his mind.
Ask him on Saturday night what he is
going to preach on Sabbath morning, and
he cannot usually tell you; Sabbath morn
ing after breakfast he goes into his study,
feels his various themes, takes one that
seems the ripest, sketches the outline, Sc
lects his text, and begins to write-at first
he writes fully, but as time goes on his pen
leaves great gaps, sketches only as the be-
ginning of separate paragraphs, then only
the head, sometimes the pencil finishes up
the hints in the pulpit.
His sermon at the beginning is read, the
commencement almost disappoints you !;
but as he warns he grows more and more
oblivious of his notes his imagination
fills up the gaps, and the pulpit completes
what the study only begun. The manu-
script sermon is literary curiosity-a
study in itself. After sermon he goes home,
eats good dinner, goes to bed, sleeps away
the afternoon, rises to cup of coffee, and
thence goes into his study to bring forth the
evening sermon by similar operation"

LOCAL MATTERS.

PRINCE EDWARD CoUNTY.--The
majority for Grant in Prince Edward
county, as returned to the Secretary Of the
Commonwealth, is 5s3. The vote Of two
precincts was thrown out for alleged cleri-
cal informalities. The vote of Prospect
precinct was thrown out in the official
count because the word prospect" was
not inserted by the clerk in the printed
heading, and Briery precinct was thrown
out because the certificate of the judges
was not filled in with the total number of
electors.
With these precincts counted, Grants
majority in Prince Edward is 1888 instead
eff 5s3 as officially returned. Mr.. Stowell's
majority in the county is no; and that of
Mr.. Allan for Commemorative attorney
740. Allan ran considerably ahead of his
ticket, but owing to q mistake of the
printer, number of the tickets were
headed for Mecklenburg county, instead of
Prince Edward. The increase of the Re-
publican vote over that of 1869 is about
lao. Grants true majority in the State is
about 1000.

Farmers, Clubs.

The formation of these clubs in every d.
rection is having most excellent effect in
the improvement of the system of farming,
and in the increased amount and conse-
quent value of the productions of the earth;
and the farmers in every ten miles square
should establish one of these institutions
with the beginning Of the coming year.
They are great stimulus to whole neigh
borhood wherever they may be started and
conducted with proper spirit.
Thus stimulus is given to his intellec-
tual improvement, as well as to his advan-
tage in agricultural knowledge. The social
feature Of these meetings is also one Of
much interest, and is conducive to good
neighborhood and kindly feelings. About
once year, the turn comes round to each
enc to receive the visit of the members,
when his fields, his orchards, his barns
and outbuildings are examined, and any
improvement for the saving of labor or
the convenience of stock will be witnessed
and the advantages pointed out for the
imitation of others.
This is generally done before the usual
asSemblage around the social board which
the good housewife has prepared from the
productions of the farm.
Every member is prompted by the in.
formation obtained at the meetings to cor
rect any errors he may have committed on
his own farm, by the conversations held
among his fellow.members,a and particularly
in the discussions upon subjects which are,
according to the announcement made before.

every member is expected to take part; this
requires that each shall furnish up bis
memory, and to hunt for information BY
searching his agricultural library or period
lcals to enable him to present his quota O
intelligence to his colleagues of the club.
We have had opportunities of attending
the meetings of sundry of these clubs, anc
we are enabled to bear testimony to excel
lent effects which have been produced upor

A remarkable old English gentleman
is missing, and is so particularly described
in an advertisement in the London Times
that, if he be found, the finders will be at
no loss to recognize him. He wears "a
brown wig and green shade over one eye.o
He has no hair on his face, but he carries a
deep red scar over his left eyebrow, has
"large yellow teeth dressed in black with a
dark gray overcoat." Now, man with q
wig over his eye and an overcoat on his
teeth ought to be identified with positive
assurance wherever he may turn up, espe-
cially if he spends freely and gives checks
on London banks, as this old-gentleman-er-
rant is said to do.-N. Y. Tribune. .4E

OLE BULL.-The first of Ole Bulls
two grand concerts was given at Assembly
Hall last night to large, fashionable, ard
intelligent audience. The performances
throughout, both instrumental and vocal,
were exquisite, surprising even the expec-
tations of those who could boast of having
heard Ole Bull in years past. He has
improved with age, and he farely makes
his instrument talk. Our citizens have not
for years perhaps enjoyed such delightful
entertainment as was furnished them last
night. Miss kidgway, Signor Ferranti,
and Mr.. Patison added their full share to
the fund, and received many tokens of the
high estimation in which they were held by
by the audience. The second concert
takes plack tonight, and we predict an
other full house. Seats can be secured
at West, Johnston & Co.'s book store.
