gloss and freshness of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restorl
the hair where the follicles 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 a pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, 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 un-
clearly end offensive Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and iniu-
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
hstre, and a grateful perfume.

The Democratic National Executive
Committee met yesterday afternoon, at the
Democratic Headquarters, aat the Sprin-
gler House. Among the emsers present
were Messrs. Schell OF New York, NJ. W.
Ransom of North Carolina, +. S. Alvord of
Indiana, j. q. Thompson Of Ohio, g. Ii.
Mccormick of Illinois, eX-Gov. Randolph
of New Jersey, w. A. Moore, Of Michigan,
F. O. Prince, of Massachusetts,, Banks of
Massachusetts, and also a member from
Wisconsin. This Committee, which is
composed of nine members (seven of
whom We're presently had with them in
consultation, Gen. Ii. W. Slocum, Mr..
Samuel j. Tilden, and Senator r. E. Fen
ton, ali Of New York; VIM. f. Phillips of
Illinois, Gen. Geo. w. McCook and Gen.
Brinkerhoff of Ohio; John A. Finch and
Mr.. Dowley of Indiana, and Mr.. Camp
bell Of New Hampshire.
The reports from Ohio and Indiana were
in the highest degree encouraging. The
German vote in Illinois is counted upon as
being fully so per cent for the Liberal
Democratic ticket, probably in consequence
of the fact that the Germans have candi-
date Of their own nationality for Governor
on the Liberal ticket. 1t is expected that
their vote will decide the contest in this
hitherto doubtful State in favor of Mr.
Greeley.
In Ohio, it is estimated that from 5000
to 5000 Liberal Republicans who did not
vote at the State election will Cast their
slffrages for Greeley. Both Mess1s.
Thompson and Drinkerhoof agree as tothis
estimate: Brinkerhof being of the opinion
that it will be 5000. and Thompson, 5000.
In the lower tier of Democratic counties in
Ohio, perhaps 1000 OF 5000 Democratic
votes will be gotten out through the per
sonal cxertions of Messls. Mclean and
PendetOn, and Senator Thurman, who
will visit the southern Districts and urge
town and county managers to do their full
duty. Gen. Brinkcrhotl. stated that the
feeling in OHIO was similar to the feeling
which pervaded the country just after the
first Bull Run fight. The people were mad
at the first reverse, and now they were de-
termined to go in and Will.

Cool I

The Baltimore american says g If
certain Prof. Charles E. Taylor, of Wake
Forest College, North Carolina, preceptor
to this interesting youth Cd. S. Ramseur,
a young lad now in the Penitentiary at
Albany had not written Q letter scanda-
lousy and outrageously false, it is probable
that he would, before this time, have been
pardoned by the President
This is decidedly cool confession for
the american to make in regard to the
President. 1t virtually admits that young
Ramseur is kept in the Penitentiary not
because he is guilty and deserves punish
ment, but because his late preceptor, Prof.
Taylor, wrote letter that certain parties
choose to designate as false and scandalous. !.
Admit for the sake of the argument
(Which we deny as a matter Of factl that
Prof. Taylor's letter was false and scanda-
lous, is that any reason for keeping the
poor boy in Jail ? Is the scholar response
BILE for the teacher
We think it very probable that the state
ment of the 1nterica,t is corr ect. and that
the unfortunate lad owes his continuance
in jail to- The indiscreet zeal OF bis old friend.
It is very indiscreet for the friends of a vic
tim of Radical malice and Federal oppres-
sion to approach General Gram except upon
their bended knees, and proffering to lick
the dust from his feet. 1t will be remem-
bered that Mr.. Attorncy-General Williams,
in his letter to Mr.. Stephens, assigning
the reasons for President Grants refusal to
grant the promised pardCns to the Albany
prisoners, cited the fact that certain news
papers had made certain publications
ing upon the President
There is nothing strange in all this. 1t
means this, and nothing more; General
Grant is determined to use his power to
its fullest extent. 1t is his purpose to shut
the mouth of every friend aud of every
kinslGan of every victim of Radical malice
and Federal corruption and oppression now
under sentence or under Indictment from
the Court in which Bond mocks at justice
and Carrow laughs at law. Grant says
by his course, and he means to say by it,
to these unfortunate men, ''you must
crawl upon your bellies in the dust to
me, and your friends and kinspeople must
look on in silence.
This is the man who is now asking these
friends and kinsfolk of his imprisoned vic
tins to give him new lease of power for
another four years.
People of North Carolina, can you vote
for such a man? Can you vote for man
who keeps tender young Southern boys in
cold Northern prisons, not because they are
gsilty, but because their old school mas
ters write letters saying they think that
such dutiful, well-behaved school boys
could not be very great criminals? Presi-
dent Grant does this, and his friends are
not ashamed to avoW it

fire was sounded. The bells located 1t in
the Third district, and it was found to pro-
ceed from the rear of the brick building on
North Water street, between Chestnut and
Mulberry, owned by Messrs. Falconer &
Son, and occupied by them as junk-shop.
The fire department all turned out
promptly and were very soon on the spot
and at work. The old piazza and shed in
front of the buildings opposite were
quickly torn down by the Hook and Lad
ders, while the fire steamers unlimbered at
the wharf and soon lad powerful streams
of water on the fiames.@-'By this means the
fire was confined to the building in which
it originated, and where it was finally sub
ducd. The light wind which was pre-
vaili : at jile time, and tie good manage
ment Oh ia l',iit Of the fire department,
prevented d more serious loss. There were
large quantities Of naval stores, molasses,
&c, stored in close Proximity, and had
very disastrous. ...-
The McssFs. Falconor's loss was very
heavy, aud will probably reach nearly
$4,000. The building was valued at
So 600, and Oh this theIc was all insurance
OF $4,000 III the Home, Of Now York, rep
resented horo by AIessrS. Taylor and Giles.
The damages to the building will probably
to. between 5000 and $4,000.
The stock was estimated to be worth be-
tween So, 900 and 5000, all Of which is
dead loss, there being no insurance, with
the exception of about $500 saved. Probably
moro of it could have been saved, but that
an absurd report was spread about that
there was number of loaded Shells in the
burning building.
The origin of the ire is unknown. 1t
Was first discovered on the upper floor at
the rear extremity of the building, in
which there had been no fire, whatever,
for several weeks past. II is uncertain
whether it was the work of an iincendiary,
Or whether it originated from spontaneous
combustion among a quantity of rags and
loose cotton that was stored there.
