 EDMUND BURKE,
 Late Commissioner of Patents" 'sMr R. H. Eddy has made for me over THIRTY applications for Patents, having been successful in almost every case.

'STN-7A& color, acith tue gloss and freshness of yoatth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, and badness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore 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 new growth of hair is produced. Instead of fouling the hair with 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- tion of dandruff, which is often so un- cleanly 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 9 HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts long on the hair, giving it a rich, glossy iustre, and grateful perfume.

II may be remembered that when Prince
Pierre Bonaparte was tried at Tours for the muir
der of Victor Hoir, the principal witness in his
favor was NJ Natal, who, representing him
self to be an English gentleman residing at
Passy, said he was impelled by the love of truth
TO come forward and depoSe that, while standing
in the crowd at the door of the chemists shop
TO which Victor Noirs body was taken, he heard
one of the seconds say, "We hit him hard" NJ.
Laurler, counsel for the Noir family, being
struck with the absence of any English accent
IN Natafs speech, extracted from him that lie
was born in Corfu, and, therefore, called him
sell an Engshman. Nevertheless, this evil
dence was very precious for Prince Pierre, as il
stood alone in establishing that he shot Victor

Last summer and not very long before the
democrats began the formal negotiation with
Horace Greeley which made him their candi-
date for the presidency, the New York Tribune
vehemently rebuked those journalists who
"make it their business to raduce the president"
in June, 1871, in an editorial on "Slandering
Grant" Mr. Greeley spoke on the subject as
follows:
May be one of these days the journalists who
make il their particular business 10 traduee the
president will become discouraged at repeated
failures, and turn 10 some more honest pursuit.
Gen. Grant, from the beginning of his career,
mas Deen perslstently assailed in the most shame
tul manner, and after every assault his charac-
ter has shone forth not only untarnished but
brighter than before. For his military success
es he was rewarded with caiumnies, which
threatened for a time to destroy him; he held
his peace, and false testimony broke down it.
sell, leaving his reputation higher than ever. At
every critical period of the war he was attacked
again; before Vicksburg; in the Wilder
ness at Petersburg; and perhaps we shall
never know how near we came to
losing his services at moments when he alone
could save our armies. Under these trials be
was still SILENT and the people, penitent for their
temporary injustice, honored him afterward
with all the more enthusiasm. When peace had
been declared, he was traduced with redOubed
malice by all classes of his political opponents,
from Andrew johnson down to the World, and
the result was his election to the presidency by
most magnificent majority In his present ele-
waited position the attacks have been incessant
hut though he has kept to his sensible resolu-
tion of holding his tongue, his enemies have
been uniformly and Immediately confuted We
never knew the propagators of such stories to
acknowledge their falsity after they had been
proved, but this makes little practical difference
ior the people know the truth and will honor
their president all the more for the oblOquy of
which he has been made the victim. judging
from the past, we should say that Gen. Grants
enemies are taking the best course to ensure his
election for another term"
Some four months later Mr. Greeley found
new light in the formal proposition of certain
democrats to place him at the head of their
party. The Tribune underwent change, and,
from that time to this, it has been one of the
presidents most virulent assaiants; one of the
most uncandid, inscriptions, and persistent.
This was i'll support of its concealed purpose to
leave the republican party, and in preparation
for the democratic alliance. Obi what a thing
il is to be "honest" after this fashionl

DAN RICE's WIFE.-lt will be remembered
that the first circus that exhibited in Dubuque
ms season was the Backentose's company,
among whom was former ringmaster of Dan
Rice, and also Dan Rices wife, who appears to
have gone over TO the PhiliStines out of choice,
Dan Rice ciicus was i'll Dubuque on Saturday
last, and from here went to McGregor and
spread their tents in that city on Monday. Back
enstoes company reached Prairie Du Chen ON
ihe opposite side of the river, and exhibited on
the same day. There is hostility of feeling
between the two companies. The sages have told
how much worse than bubblmg hell Is a wom-
ans hate. Dan Rice's wife, ii report is true, is
no exception to the general rule, and makes
things red hot and lively for her husband and
friends whenever she gets an npportupity.
On Monday mQrIing, il is said at her instioa
ton, "a party of men belonging to Blackeu-
stoeS circus crossed the river from Prairie du
Chen to McGregor, and going to the grounds
where Dan Rlce'S circus was exhibiting picked
a quarrel with the men and general fight en-.
sued, III which there were no less than forty men
engaged on either side. For while there was

MYSTERIOUS AND TRUE.-A strange and, as
yet, unSolved mystery hangs around chain of
incidents now occurring about the premises of
a well-known gentleman residing on Magazine
street, near Ibaa We have the facts directly
from him. He says that since last Wednesday
afternoon hls house has been subjected to a
mysterious bombaTdment of brckbats, bits of
mortar and other missiles, thrown apparently
from yard adjacent TO his, and with such force
as TO make it dangerous TO stand near bv. With
all the aertness he could exercise he was unable
TO discover the source of his ANNOYANCE. and
finally made complaint to the police office.
Three men were dispatched to the place to fer
ret out and arrest the disturber of the peace,
but, Notwithstanding the most diligent search
and careful watching, no one can be found upon
whom even a suspicion could be laid as the guilty
party.
As an evidence of their boIdnesS, we are told
that while two of the policemen were in the
yard of the beSieged house, and another with
the gentlemen in the yard from which the mis-
siles seemed 10 come, a piece of brick was
thrown, striking one OF the officers in the face
Up to Yesterday morning no less than eight
paneS of glass in the kitchen had been broken
by these proiectilcs, and several of the family
narrowly escaped being struck At times thev
come in showers, while at others they are
thrown at long intervals On Friday the an
n0yance became so great as to drive the lady
and her family away it being dangerous to re-
main in the house. We get all this from the
gentleman himself, and if any one has an ex-
PLANTATION or remedy for such grievances, we
will give his name and address, He has had no
difficulty with any one in the neghborhood, and
is completely at aloss TO account for this strange
attack upon his houSe.-Nelg Orleans ReDubH-

lie is what the first Napoleon called an IDEAL

with an lnirm, errahc and impractcable ludg-
ment! With all his experience il is safe 70 saw
that he is the poorest judge of character of any
prominent man in this country. He is forever
being gulled and imposed upon, as he has re-
peatedly shown by his Quixotic support of
public and worthless characters of his own
party" And yet the Times now supports
Greeley for the office of president!
