Every year increases the popu-
larity of this valuable Hair Prop
aration, which is due to merit
alone. We can assure our old
patrons that it is kept fully up to
its high standard; and it is the Ga
ly reliable and perfected prepara-
ton for restoring GRAT or FADED
'HAr-. to it's youthful color, making
it soft, lnstrous, and silkea. The
scalp, by its use, becomes white and
clean. It removes all eruptions and
dandrrA, and, by its tonic proper
ties, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates snd rourishes
the hair-glslsds. BY its use, the
hair grows thicker and stronger.
In badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is tho most
economical HAIn-DRrssISG ever
used, as it rerpires fewer spplica-
lions, and gives tho hair a splendid,
glossy appearance. A. A. Hayes,
MD, State Assayer Of Hassachu-
sets, says, "Ihc constituents are
pare, and caroia!ly selected fn' cx-
cellent quality; and l consider, it
the BEST PREPLRkTToN for its
intended purposes

CHEAP COTTON.


. CAMDEN. s. c., Nov. 16, 1872.
Editor Of the South: ~
Cheap cotton would be a patent and ac-
knowledged blessing to all the world save
the cotton producer.
propose to show, frst--that that blessing
is within easy reach of the world; and,
second-that the condition Of the cotton
producer is such that he will receive greater
benefits from the causes which will produce
cheap cotton than all "the rest Of mankind"
will from the cheap cotton. +
First.-An average crop Of about three
and fourth millions of bales $3.50 ,000)
may be relied on from the Cotton States Of
the United States, grown on nine millions Of
acres and produced by the labor of some two.
and-a-half millions of individuah G, 500, ,O00),
producing also, however, large provision
crops ~
This shows product Of only about one
third of bale to the acre-not one ,and-a.
half bales to the laborer. Yet on some of
the thinuest soils in the cotton belt, where
intelligence and thrift direct labor, tho pro-
duct not snnfreqnsnfly is from two:thirds
of bale to one bale per acre-e-ffom four to
eight bales to the laborer.
Within three years the cotton product Of
the South could be doubled, without adding
an acre to tho area cultivated, by the infus-
ion of better labor and by aiding the intelli:
gence engaged in cotton culture by capitalso
much needed.
Under pressing embarrassments it is no
uncommon thing to see the maximum amount
above mentioned produced by prudent, man
aging men spite of straitened circumstances
and imperfect means; while on ne;ghboring
lands and all other circumstances equally f.
vorable, except industry and thrift, one bale
to ten acres is the result. Throughout the
entire South choice lands are tenanted by
freedmen, and their crops very often do not
reach bale to the laborer. Of conrse the
proprietors would rejoice to let much Of
these lands to intelligent, industrious wtite
men, who would quadruple the product and
improve their lands; or they would gladly
sell. at low prices, portions Of their lands
and the capital, thus resulting, would enable
them to utilize their remaining lands.
But, if necessary the acreage could be
largely increased, as there are millions Of
acres of waste land throughout the South

This being essentially political commu-
nit, everything is made subservient te the
movers that he that thrift may follow fawn-
ing. The disease being epidemic, even the
ministers of the gospel, with notable excep-
tions. are attacked with it and they preach
Radicalism, sugar coated, instead of Christ,
as they are paid for doing; but it suits the
locality and therefore is popular. Many Of
the Thanksgiving sermons were little more
than eulogies of the Administration and its
wisdom. Sometimes directly and sometimes
by Implication it was given out that Repub-
licalism-in a party sense-was an offshoot
of the Bible and Christianity. The beauties
of negro social equality, the teachings of
Christ, the Washington treaty, the Union,
the flag and the Cross, were all jumbled to-
gether as tributes to the wisdom Of General
Grant and the Radical party, almost to the
exclusion of the precepts and practices
of the meek and lowly Jesus. A pleasing
contrast to the preaching Of tho political
RevereLds was the action Of the, Young
Mems Christian Association who gave
on Thanksgiving day, when about 400 Of
our newspaper merchants sat down to q
sumptuous repast, such as never delighted
their hearts or astonished their stomachs. Il
was an odd sight to witness 400 human
waits Of all Sizes. white and black, social
equality being observed, marching into the
dinner table to the strains of music from o
brass band. They soon made fearful wreck
of that splendid feast. and went to their
poor lowly homes with feelings of thankful
ness to those who had made one day Of their
cheerless lives so bright and happy.
THE COMING SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
I have it from reliable authority that Sen.
ator Morton, of Indiana, will be offered the
Treasury portfolio, and it is understood that
he will accept it. This will be gall and
wormwood to Senator Cameron. of Pennsyl-
vania. who was recently snubbed by the
President behind the civil service rules, Nor
ton being Cameron's rival for Grants favor
It is reported by those who have the means
of knowing, that through Wall street specu
lations, based on the purchase and sale of
cold and Government bonds, Secretary Bout
well has grown from poor man to be q
/ modern Crasus, and chat Secretary Fish
from being quite wealthy is now very much
involved, and will 90 abroad in diplomatic
capacity in order to extricate himself. If
Senator Morton will be as unsorupulous as
Government officer as he has been Senator
in matters political, he will be worthy suu-

wears; and, moreover, there is necessity for
the large quantity Of reserved land formerly
held on every plantation. -.
With abundant capital and efficient labor
it would be difficult to place q limit to the
capacity ofthe South for the production Of
cotton. The product could, by intelligent
labor and by capital judiciously used, BE-
doubled on the area now in cultivation. If
need be that area could be doubled.
.,Seoond.-The idea ofrdoubling. or quad
rupling the crop of cotton, at first glance,
would seem slarming to, the cotton-grower,:
but it is only in the seeming. The world
will need all the cotton that can be pro-
duced, and consumption will grow as rapidly
as production can be forced.

my devotion to the South, and yet ardently

Death ofHorace Greeley.

= The death Of this illustrious journalist
took place on the 29th ult., after brief Ill.
ness. The sad intelligence has no doubt
carried astonishment as well as grief all over
the country.
Mr.. Greeley was born at Amherst N. H.,
February, ard 1911. BE was pre-eminently
a self.educated man, who clung with great
tenacity to his convictions, and did not much
heed the opinions of his fellow-men. He
possessed talents eff high order, though
his bitterness of spirit detracted in great
measure from them. His mind delighted in
controversy, and he was never 80 happy as
when some luckless adversary opposed his
pet schemes, or took up the pen to denounce
them as visionary. He was an able and earn
advocate of the abolition of slavery, and at
time when to express such sentiments, was
dangerous and improbable. To him, as
much as to any other individual, is North
crn sentiment indebted for its education
and present attitude, upon this great ques-
ton, which has revoutionized our country
and created an embittered state Of feeling
which perhaps this century will not remove
As the founder and editor of the New
York Tribune, Mr.. Greeley wss most cele-
brated, being universally acknowledged to
be the abl.st editorial writer in America
1t was in this capacity that he reached Che
zenith cf his fame. 1t was here that he dis
played the accumulated wisdom of his life
and made more enemies than almost any
other man had the misfortune to make .He
was persistent exponent of nearly all the
so-called progressive theories of his time and
the ability7in presenting their strong points,
was the admiration of their founders who per.
haps had never dreamed of many Of them
until brought to light by him.
In his private life he was singularly free
from the vices and foibles Of many of his con
temporaries. Though exceedingly accentric,
he is said to have been model husband and
father. His simple habit, may in great part,
be attributable to the fact that he was q
Grahamite; this also accounts for his immuni-
ty from disease. ,ra..-. -';s.
The causes of his death may be regarded
as two fold, to-wit, the tremendous excitement
ofthe late Presidential canvass, Simultaneous
ly with the great nervous prostration result
ing from his close and unbroken attendance
at the bedside of his dying wife, to whom he
was more than ordinarily attached. These
with Is aasxnectedly overwhelming defeat,
-c6mSsned to proddoe a state mind which
resulted inthe complete and sudden sapping
of his bodily functions and terminated his re-,
markable life. -,
