Every year increases the populari-
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation;
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 only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrouS, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nouriShes
the hair-glands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create n new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. a. Hayes, MD,
State AsSayer of Massachusetts, says,
"Thc constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and | consider it the BEST PREPA-
RATION for its intended purposes"

nNppOyEwrWr on THE HARnOR.

In the Board of Trade, last evening, important
action was taken. looking to the appropriation
by Congress Of s150,0OO, to improve the harbor
OF this city, and deepen the channel from the
mouth Of the ChristiAaa up to the existing city
'front.' This plan would include, Of course, the
Dredging Of the shoal which makes out into the
Delaware, across the mouth of the ChristiAna.
This has been one OF the chief impediments in
the way OF our establishing large commerce in
vessels drawing over fourteen feet Of water, and
while It's seriousness has been magnifed to cur
disadvantage by persons interested in other CONT
merciAl cities, il ia an obstruction which ought
to be removed.
II such an appropriation as is proposed can be
obtained from Congress--And we think it can
the expenditure should be upon some systematic
and comprehensive plan Of hArbor improvement.
The present engineering operations Of the Gov
ernment, designed to remove rocks, and dredge
some parts Of the channel to a greater depth,
are well enough IN their way, but they are mere
ly tiukering and patching, when We need gen
eral and elaborate plan of reform. We do not
mean to propose radical alteration Of the
natural channels Of our two rivers, such as has
been suggested on the plan Of Mr.. Tyson, OF
Baltimore, but we propose vigorous and extern
sive enlargement and deepening Of the present
bArbor aud channels, and the construction Of
docks, basins, and other adaptations Of the water
facilities and accommodations which we now
possess. OF course, the Government will not
huild our docks, but it can be induced, no
doubt, to proceed with engineering opera
tions which will cooperate with, and assist
their construction, so that we shall secure from
the expenditurelof public appropriations, pri-
vAte capital, and possibly with the grant
of some assistance from the city, reali-
zation Of the utmest advantages which Nature
has meant our commerce should enjoy. The
greatness of the Clyde, the immense business OF
Chicago, the commercial wealth Of some of the
cities Of the Netherlands, are ali examples which
may be studied with profit BY Wilmington, and
from which we may learn that we have here, as
has been more than once asserted in these col
umns, the best shipping-plAce on the Delaware,
between Trenton and Cape Henlopen.

The EOrth Carolina Poisoning Ease.

AcoUITTAL OF THR ACCUSED WIFE AND DAUGHTER.
In the case OF the accusation Of poisoning,
mentioned yesterday in the COMMERCIAL, against
the wife and daughter of Rev. DR.. Smith of
italegh, n. C., it appears both the unfortunate
ladies have been already released.
The accused was heard on writ Of habeas
corpus, before Judge Watts, on Saturday.
Their COUNSEL insisted that there could be no
motive for the crime. The deceased was sal
aried man; his affairs vera embarrassed; his fam
ily we're most deeply interested in his living; the
daughter was DIR. Smiths favorite, and the am
liable character of both Offset any presumption
Of guilt. Captain Smith Of Philadelphia, broth
er of the deceased testified to the high, lovable
character of Mrs. Smith, that her amiability had
been the subject Of cOngratulation in the family
as well as the fact that his brother had been
joined to one who so well understood and could
so well endure and excuse his brusque manner
and quick temper.
Other witnesses were heard, and Judge Watts
then delivered his decision, that there was not
the slightest evidence to sustain the charge
againzt either prisoner, and ordered their dis
charge.
Tremendous applause from the audience fol-
lowed the decision while numerous friends
crowded around the prisoners congratulating
them. The self-possession 80 long maintained
gave way at the last moment aud, dropping
their heads with quick start, they both burst
forth in audible sObs

Especial Dispatch TO the New York TirDes.l
WARRINGTON. Nov. 1s.-The signs Of the times
point to sharp attack in Congress in the new
t1vil service appointment machinery. There
is class OF politicians who have boldly opposed
the principle Of separating the civil appoint
ments from party influences, and who are earn
estly demanding the continuance Of the spois
system. They submitted to have reform inserted
in the Philadelphia platform and preached, du-
ring the canvas, but all the time made a men
tai protest against any reform which should pre-
vent them from rewarding their friends and
Furnishing their enemies by extending or with
holding the patronage OF the Government
Now that the election Is over, increased Oppo-
sition is arising.
1t is undoubted that an attempt will be made
in Congress TO repeal all the legislation there
has been on the subject. Just what quarter the
proposition will come from is uncertain. The
election has rendered the friends Of the
measure stronger than ever, and they
have the advantage Of an appeal to the platform
on whith the party triumphed. The large ma
iorities in several States, instead Of being held
be demand for great share in the peddling
of petty offices, is looked upon as giving the
President great freedom and independence, for
rowhere can any man be put forward and have
his claims presented as the one to whom any
Particular result ought to be attributed.
