The daily phoenix. [volume] (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, 1872-09-11

ASTUMP SPEAKER IN PETTICOATS We
have been worry hopeful Of Greeley g
election, Notwithstanding the letter of
Gen. Wise, the Convention of Mr.. Dun
can, and the attitude of MIR. O'Conor,
but we are now really alarmed. Miss
Fletcher-it is true you never heard of
her, but still she thinks herself a power
in the land-has "taken the stump" in
Ohio for Grant, and several other par
ticularly strong minded women have fol-
lowed her example. It is saih that these
awful danes and damsels play the very
deuce with Mr.. Greeley, and there is no
telling what the result may be. This is
dreadful state OF affairs, and it is
lamentable to think that the philosopher
has brought it on himself by his candor
in saying that he thinks women ought
not to vote, and unsex themselves by
miDgling in the brawls and excitements
of political life. A great mnny profound
thinkers agree with him it is true; but,
then, Miss Fletcher is on the war-path,
and determined TO have his scalp! Under
these circumstances we begin to feel a
little alarm, for there is no telling how
many votes she may carry for Grant il
she happens to be particularly good
looking.

Whea Senator Sumner returned from Europe
he WAS advised by his physician t"abs,aiS from
all tabor in the Senate and 1t was his i,tenton
to do so. To this end he asked to be- eScused
from service on any Of the Sesets committees. 1t

speech in defence Of his bill for srasing the
names of battles in the rebellion from flags aud
army records. The bill will be attacked by
several leading Senators, conspicuous among
them General LOGAN and Governor MORTON, and
Mr.. SUMSER intends to show that it has been
the custom Of civilized nations in all time to
discourage as far as possible the Perpetuatiop
of the memtry Of civil strifss.
BY the time the gentleman named gets through
with Mr.. SUMNER on this subject, his physician
will be prspard to tell him that he had better
abstained from this duty. Our people are not

gloss and freshness Of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, fallen 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 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 grey or falling of, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration Of vitality it gives to tho
scalp arrests and prevents tho forma-
ton of dandruH, which is often so un-
cleanly and 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
lustre, and grateful perfume.

Pitting from sm;,lI.H'Ox.

The terrible scanning and pitting Of tie
lace, neck, and other exposed IT'S Of the
body, consequent upon the sever attacks OF
the smallpox, are well known. 1t is notice
able, hswever, that the scalp is always eX-
~smpt from marks, even after the severest
form OF the disease, the covering afforded by
the hair preserving it from pitting. Re'nem-
bering this fact it recently occurred to an
English physician, while watching g photo

that the material, if applied to the face and

disease in each case was OF the distinct form.
One of Il two, girl, aged fifteen years, had
an abundant eruption, which, in the unprO-
tected parts of the body, went through the
usual consecutive changes. In both cases the
parts covered by the wool were left without a
vestige of marks. The mode ofappcation is
as follows: On the first appearance of the

washed over with colodioD, and Immediately
covered with thin, uniform layer OF fine
wool the wool readily adheres if applied be-
fore the ether of the colodion evaporates

One of the Orf0fnnf Owners of th4~ Books
Brings Snit Against Shortall ct h1.--~He
Claims n Sort of Lein on the Documents Dur
Ing His Natural Life.
The suit John Borden =. John G. Shortall and
John N. Staples, in the Circuit Court, for speci-
fc performance, is based Oh an agreement, dated
Oct II, 1861, in which it is alleged that John N.
StaTlesand John G. Shortall purchased of Henry
Greenebaum the real estate title books, COM
piled by g. NJ. Parker, and formerly belonging
to Bryan L. Borden, amounting with the addi-
tions made to them to the date named, to about
lis volumes, wholly relating to titles of real
estate in Chicago and Cook County. As part
Of the consideration, it was agreed that said
Borden should have the right personally to in
spect, examine, and make minutes OF said books
and additions thereto during his life, said right
to be restricted to his own use, for his own real
estate operations, and not to extend to
abstracting for others, or to the making
material for similar set Of books and this in
denture further provided that in consideration
of ST, 400, being the sum estimated and fixed
as the value Of said right to John Borden, the
said Shortall i Staples did thereby sell to said
John Borden all the said books, with their addi-
tlons, to have and hold as his property and the
deed vas further upon the express condition
that, should said shortall Staples at any time
remove said books, or prevent the use of them
BY said Borden, then said Borden should have
the right Immediately to seize all tho books,
duplicates, substitutes. additions, and so forth,
and unless the sum Of $5,400 be Immediately
paid to him, he should have the right
to sell and realize. It was further
coyenanted that new mortgage should be made
by said Shortau l. Staples on the 18th of Sep
tember, 1868, securing Bordens rights as afore-
said, renewable from time to time afterward.
Petitioner now charpes that t},a cnvenant tn ra.
cover has not been observed; that Louis D.
Hoard has acquired an interest in the books,
and that the parties are now, regardless of his
interest in the property, endeavoring to dispose
Of it to the corporate authorities Of Cook County
free, clear, and wholly discharged from tie
rights secured to him, which rights have now
become Of great value, in consequence Of the
destruction of the public records By IRE, and
which rights they positively decline to renew.
Petitioner prays that the parties ba enjoined
from selling or assigning this property, and that
they be compelled to execute new deed fully
protecting his interests.
