A Remedy for Badness.

The bald may now take courage and
smile at the frequent summer fly. 1t
is no new lotion that is to bring back
the hairs of their youth and innocence,
but system of planting hairs in the
smooth skin of the head, exactly as
cabbages are set out in the garden
A discoverer, whose name cannot be
long concealed from q grateful world,
has invented plan for replanting the
hair where it is lost. AS plants grow
so does the hair. 1t is rooted and
thrives like vegetable. The opera
ton of restoring hair is very simple !;
put healthy hairs into the eyes of
needles and draw the needles through
the upper skin, the epidermis; being
drawn through, the hairs are left in
the skin, as a thread may be left in
any material by stitcher. The roots,
which have been extracted with their
bulbs complete, are brought under
the epidermis. The surface SO opera
ted upon is protected at first by lin
EN- band, bnt the hairs soon take root,
grow and flourish. 1t is not stated
whether having the skin punctured in
this way is disagreeable, and how
often it is fatal If it is a success, the
plan has many advantages; one can
have any color of hair he may elect,
and he can plant variety of colors,
and thus make his appearance striking
and beautiful.-HarGord Courant.
There is one very important matter
omitted in the above without which
it is of very little use. The possess
ors of bald pates would like to be in
formed whether the new plants are to
be manured in the hills.

For Whoever 1t Fits.

There are nearly as many bad wives
as bad husbands. Many men who
work hard and try to do well in life
are neglected and abused by improv-
ident women.
They are condemned to eat the poor
est dinners, when they provide the
best the market affords.
On heavy bread, soggy vegetables,
muddy coffee and tough pie-crus$,
how can woman expect her husband
to be pleasant and loving?
Such men often drink whisky be-
cause their food distresses them-as
it would any one who had not cast
iron stomach-and the habits of in
temperance are in this way sometimes
begun, through the fault of the wife.
1t costs more to cook poorly than
to make food good and palatab!e.
If woman runs home from q
neighbours just in time to throw pie
together, bake it, and bring it to the
dinner table hot, she commits a great
offence against rhe health of her FAM
lily.
If a man has only an hour to go
home, get his dinner and return to
business, it should be ready for him
oH ClSC hO VIII
hot food in the greatest haste, and
start off for rapid walk, all of which
is very bad, and will soon show its
effects upon the strongest man.
When her husband gets peevish,
low-spirlted and forgetful of the little
acts of love and kindness be taught
her to expect in days agone, woman
who is such a housekeeper need not
sit in the twilight and wonder at sad
changes.
Dyspepsia is not conducive to ten
der thought or happiness.
Had she acted her part with half
the zeal and industry of her husband,
all would have been well, and she
could still sit in the sunshine of earli-
er days.
1t is very hard for man to caress
the hand which for years has been
| feeding him slow poison.

ENOUGH TO BRING THE DEAD TO
LIFE.-Last Monday a Chinaman nam
ed All Och, who had been sick with
typhoid fever for two weeks past, sud
denly, to all appearances, died. The
company to which he belonged sent a
man to his residence on jackson st.,
and he, on his return received permit
to make coffin for the dead man. He
was to receive $35 for his trouble.
Some of the deceased mans friends,
however, not thinking he was really
dead, sent for Chinese doctor. The
medical man soon came, and, in ac-
cordance with the custom of his coun-
-y, heated an iron poker to white
heat and burned the supposed dead
man on the forehead and eyebrows.
He also stabbed him in various por-
tions of his body. This had the effect
of aronsing the sick man, who had
only been in q trance. There is cof-
fin for sale on Jackson street at very
low figure.-Saa Francisco Post.

AN honest blacksmith was once
grossly insulted, and his character in
famously DETAINED. Friends advised
him to seek redress by means of the
law, but to. one and all he replied :
No; L will go to my forge, and there,
in six months l shall have worked out
such a character and earned such a
name as all the judges, law courts and

and conscience void OF offence, that
we assert our true dignity, and prove

WHAT BECAME OF THE SCHOOL FUND :

Tennessee once had school fund. 1t
was lost, squandered and stolen in the
general wreck of the State government,
which followed as natural consequence of
the Democratic rebellion. A great deal
has been said about where this fund went
to. Every man of reason knows that it
went into the pockets of Democratic poll
ticians. These same Democrats, with the
impudence of Satan himself, have attemp-
ted to charge that it was lost through the
negligence, extravaganza and dishonesty
of Republicans.
We have before us copy of an act
OF the Democratic, rebel Legislature of
Tennessee, passed in February, 1862, while
that itinerant concern was holding forth
at Memphis, which throws some light up-
ON the manner in which the school fund
was then regarded. Wequote two sections
of the act as follows:
An Act to provide for the families of INDECENT
soldiers.
SECTION l. Be it enacted By the General As
sem6Ly of the State Of Tennessee That the sum
of four hundred and fifty thousand dollars an
nually, for the years 1862 and 1868, be and the
same is hereby appropriated for the relief of
the families of INDECENT soldiers now IN the SER
vice of the State of Tennessee or IN the Conted-
crate States of America, or that may hereafter
enter the service of the State.
Sec 2. Be It further enacted, That TO raise
said fund the whole amount of revenue now in
the Treasury, for the above named years, from
Knoxville daily chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1882, 1872-04-06

any and all sources for common school purpos-
cs, except the sum of one hundred thousand
dollars per annum, and all property and monies
accruing to the school fund from escheats ana
two thousand dollars in lieu of land tax, Is
hereby appropriated.
There is where nine hundred ttous0's0
dollars of the fund was provided for. We
know of some prominent Democratic poll
ticians in East Tennessee who were menu
bers Of the Legislature at that time. Since
then, they have grown eloquent in their
condemnation of the misapplication of
this fund. Wonder if they were present
and voted for this law?
1t will be remembered that by the pro-
visions of the Constitution, this fund was
to remain as a perpetual fund.-" the
principal never to be diminished by leg
islative appropriation" The men who
passed this act-all of whom are Demo
crats-had taken a solemn oath, upon the
Holy Evangelists of Almighty God, to
support this Constitution. Having per-
jured themselves and robbed the children,
it is very natural that they should now
wish to avoid the consequences of their
crime. He who commits perjury will not
scruple to hide his crime, by reiterating
falsehood upon every occasion. This is
the condition in which we find the lead
ing Democratic politicians of Tennessee.
First, they were willing to break up the gov
eminent because they could not control the
offices. They thought they had succeeded
in this, and would never be brought to ac-
countability, by reason of the chaotic condi-
ton of the country consequent upon the
disruption of the government, and did
not hesitate to perjure themselves to get
their hands into the State Treasury. This
was the motive which led them to ruth
lessly break down the barrier between
themselves and the sacred school fund.
They didn't care a straw for " INDECENT
women and children f" it was the love of
plumber. They robbed the school children
of the State, of this fund, squandered 1t
for their own use, and ever since have
been lying to conceal their villainy. I'M
partial history must so record it. Those
who are acquainted with the facts must
now admit it, and with honest men, the
actors in this disgraceful scheme must ever
be regarded as infamous. If they had
taken the money stolen from the school
fund and applied it faithfully, as the act
shows it was intended, there might be. a
shadow of excuse for tive say mere
shadow-beeause it could not be diverted
from its original purpose without perjury
on the part of Legislators, but we have no
evidence that it was so applied. The in
ference is, tuat it was squandered, stolen
and misapplied by the remnants of the
rebel State Government, during its pere-
grination through the States South Of us.

WELL informed Washington cores
pOndents say that Earl Granville's last
letter on the Alabama claims question is
very long, and that Secretary Fish is the
only person who has yet read it. The
Evening Post says of the present situation
of the case: We do not altogether agree
with British public opinion, or rather pub
lie pride, in its declaration that the Gene
va tribunal shall not hear our case because
these claims are set forth in it. We hold
that they have a proper place in the case,
regarded not as claims, but simply as az
guments for awarding sum in gross,
rather than referring the injuries done by
the several vessels to a Board of Assessors.
But since this is the utmost which we
have any legal right to demand, why
should we not now put an end to the
whole of this interlOcutOry controversy by
offering to restrict the presentation of the
Indirect claims in our case to this one eff
feet? Let Mr.. Fish write to Earl Gran
vile, agreeing to stipulate that the tribu-
nal shall not have authority to award any
damages for the prolongation of the war
or for the transfer of American ships to
British owners; but that the whole sixth
chapter of our case shall stand simply as
an argument i'll favor of an award by the
tribunal of a sum in gross, in satisfaction
of all our claims"

Ex-PRES1DBNr JOHNSON FOR CONGRESS

The late Assembly has so gerrymandered
the Congressional Districts that the Dem
ocrats feel there is a prospect of carrying
the First District, which, in the late cleo
ton, gave Wisener (Republican) but 81
majority. The programme now is to run
Andy Johnson, as they think it would be
a righteous change to get Johnson in Con-
gress and Maynard out. EX-Gov. Senter
and other Democratic patriots aspire, so it
is not certain that Andy can get the race if
he wants it. He could doubtless unite his
party nearer than Senter and would make
a strong canvass. Republicans must put
forth their strongest man in such a contin-
genCy.
