THE UsEFUL.-The much neglected hemlock of our lumber country has found value in the bark alone beyond the richest pine wood of the country, and now we hear of 8 company of $250- 900 capital, whose business it is to util- ize all the old tin and iron scraps, hither- to thrown aside as worthless, though in amount equal to 30 per cent. of all that is used. This city alone would furnish at least 10, 1000 tons 0 year of iron clip pings or scraps, and now all this vast material can be utilized. For every ton of clippings can be made, 1st, 500 pounds of hydrochloric acid; 2d, 10 per cent. of the waste made in manufacturing the iron obtained by heating it with soluble glass to prevent rusting; Sd, the employ ment of the remaining liquor for useful purposes and great saving of labor. So advances science. The scoriw of iron, once wasted, are now used in making glass and cements, which in turn make artificial stone. Cotton seed, once vast ed, is made into the best oils for all pur- poses, and is a great fertilizer; the once useless residum of gas and the most in- furious gases are made into sulphuric acid, or oil of vitriol. The aniline dyes, the green oil, the madder red, come from coal tar, and $3, 500, ,O0O worth has been sold of the aniline in year. There is no end to facts like these, and they are as encouraging as they are instruc- tive.-N Y. Paper.

"SALA" ON THE PANAMA HAT.-Are you aware of the beauties of Panama hat? It is of fine straw-straw so fine nnd so exquisitely plaited, that it appears to be of one united glossy nature. It is as soft as silk, and as strong as chain mail, and as elastic as caoutchouc. If you are caught in a shower of rain, and your Panama gets wet through, you have only to wiring it out as though it were towel, and hang it on your walking stick to dry, and in a quarter of an hour it will have regained it's pristine shape. The Spaniards declare that Panama is shot-proof, and an infallible protection against sunstroke ]; but of these assertions I have my doubts. The life of Panama hat may be measured by that of raven. It is supposed never to wear out. At all events, there is a cunning natter in New York, who, for $10, will undertake to return to you, as good as new, Panama hat, which is twenty years old, and has been in the wars, and ship-wrecked, and thrown into limekiln, tan-pit, and a bucket of tar. This peerless hat is not to be purchased at a mean price. It is the dearest head gear manufactured. Red-skinned maidens have intoned whole cantos of Indian epics while they plaited and sewed together those minute circles of straw. A good Panama will stand you in from fifty to seventy five pesos de oro-from fifty to one hundred dollars.

THAT TURKEY.-Frederick Douglas tells this good story I was hungry once, very hungry indeed, and l hadas little conference with brother slave on the subject of helping myself to a turkey that saw huttering in one of the hot houses. I told Sandy (for it was Sandy Jenkins) that I was hungry, wanted something to eat, but that had religious scruples against helping mysely to that turkey. I knew that he was a praying man, God-fearing man, and wanted his advice on the subject. He told me that it was rather ticklish question in ethics. There was some risk about it, but so far as the act itself was concerned, it was perfectly legitimate. He said you are your masters property !? Yes, said l.. That turkey is your masters property ? Yes. If you put that turkey into you, that turkey does not cease to be the property of your master, but only adds to the value of the property in another form. So it was simply question of removal. I said that it stood to reason, the whole thing was clear to reason, and I helped myself

THE SKEPr1oA1 CoNvNcED.-Every advance in Medicine. every new remedy has encountered an opposition, which is the test of truth. Galen and Jenner only were believed when they proved their discoveries against opposition. But men are observing, and benefits always make believers. No incredulity can stand the si lent arguments of good results. When Dr. Walker proclaimed that he had produced from the medical herbs of California an Elixir that would regenerate the sinking system and cure disease not organic, the incredulous shook their heads, Yet his VINEaA R B1rTERs is now the Standard Restora- tive of the Western World. The truth could not be resisted. Under the oper- ation of the new remedy, Dyspeptics regain their health, appetite and strength the Billo us and Constipated were re- lieved of every distressing symptom :; the Consumptive and Rheumatic rapidly recovered; Intermittent and Remittent Fevers were broken up the taint of Scrofula was eradicated. Who could gainsay facts like these Not even the Faculty. Skepticism was routed. All doubts as to the claims of the Bitters to the first place in the first rank of modern medicines were silenced, and this won- derful preparation is to-day the most popular Tonic, Alterative, and Blood Depurent ever advertised in America. In common with other journalists, we are free to add our testimony to this remedy. It is a domestic medicine, and no household should be with out 1t. Com.

\ PROCLAMATION.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. II, 1872. By the President of the United States ef America.
 A PROCLAMATION.
 Whereas, The revolution of another year has again brought the time when it is usual to look back upon the past, and publicly thank the Almighty for His mercies and His blessings; and
 Whereas, If any one people has more occasion than another for such thankful ness, it is the citizens of the United States, whose Government is their crea- ture; subject to their behests; who have reserved themselves ample civil and re- igious freedom and equality before the law; who, during the last twelve months have enjoyed exemption from any grievous or general calamity. and to whom prosperity in agriculture, manu- factures, and commerce has been vouch- safed.
 Therefore, by these considerations, I recommend that on Thursday, the twen> weight day of November next, the peo- pie meet in their respective places of worship and there make their acknow- ledgments to God for his kindness and bounty.
 In witness whereof I hereunto set my hand and cause the seal of the United States to be affixed.
 L. S.. Done at the City of Washing ton this eleventh day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand e1ght hundred and seventy two, and of the in dependence of the United States the ninety-seventh.

The Great Hair Producer.--Hair Oils, Poma- tums ana Pomades have had their day. They belong to the musty past. Nobody that understands the chemistry of the hair and the philosophy of its growth thinks of using them. Instead of clogging the pores of the scalp with thick onguents and thus obstructng tho insensible precipitation which is sental to the health of the fbres we new tone the surface of the head with invigoratng application which penerates to the roots of the hair and stimu lates them the way that the fertizng agents spread over the meadow stimulate the grass roots and cause the blades to spring up in myriads coat ing the earth with verdure. The invgorant best adapted to this purpose is LYoN's KATH IRON. It may well be called the fertilizer of the head To the barren scalp it communicates vegetative power. If tho hair is dropping out becoming dry and whit ened it arrests the process of dapidation or blight The hair thickens and becomes glossy and flexible under its genial operation, and as dressing it is unapproached by any preparation that has yet been laid on the toilet of Fashion.

A NEW GAME.-A new game of cards called Pedro, modification of the game of old sledge, is now played on the rail road trains. The Boston Transcript ing the game, describes it thus: The five spot of trumps is Pedro, and scores five in the game to whomsoever holds it at the conclusion. It can be taken by the six spot or higher card. The num- Der of the game is raised from seven to eleven, and the rest of the count is unal- tered, they rating in this order; high, low, Jack, Pedro, game.- The last three counts to the final winner, and if he be fortunate to have all five, he scores 9 in the game.
