We hear and read good deal Just now
about the era Of good feeling and the necessity
Of forgetting the late canvass and the strife
and animOsIty that 1t engendered. In the
main we agree with these doctrines, aud
would be only too glad to see all parties
united In the support Of the Administration
for the advancement Of tho best interests Of
the country. But where Is the evidence that
our late opponents are any less bitter against
the Administration now than they were two

Comptroller Tayler, In his letter to the Sec
Rotary Of War, which will be found In another
column, raises one or two nice questions
which will probably require the aid Of that
universal regulator, Congress, to adjust. In
the FIRST place, he rules that two or three
classes Of persons employed by the Govern
ment are not entitled to the additional COM
pensation allowed by the acts Of June, 1888
and Of May, 1871. II seems that last septem-
Der the Presidents interference was invoked
in the matter whereupon he addressed a com
munication to the Secretary Of War, who In
turn referred 1t to the First Comptroller, with
4 request that he would give the grounds Of
| his action on the subject. In the second place,
he raises another question, namely, to what
extent the Comptroles are bound by an
opinion Of the Attorney General, or whether
they are bound at all. The First Comptroller
In fact goes further than this, and declares
that neither the Department Of Justice moi
any other Department or officer has any au
thority whatever to reverse q decision Of tn,
Comptroller. Now, this is pretty row al
around, and what IL to be the end of 1t W,
are certain that we do not know. The easies
way out OF tho middle that we can zee Ia fol
Congress to pass another law, telling TIT
Comptroller exactly what they intended II
their former enaetments, and direct the Sec
rotary Of War to detail file Of soldiers from
Fort Foote to keep the peace between thu
Comptrolers and the Department OF Justice

GEN. CMPMAN, In the House yesterday, In
troduced the bill presented by him last ses'
sion for the endowment of the public schools
IN this District. II is really difficult to see
what objection can he urged against Its pas
sage, and we are certain that none will be al
soon as It Ia reported to the House. The Dis
Irict Of Columbia Il almost the only portion
Of the Union that has not received aid fol
educational purposes. Montana has received
over four MILL IN acres Of the public lands
Dakota has received aye millions; Nevada,
nearly four millions; Oregon, three aud half
millions; Nebraska, nearly three millions
Kansas has received public lands worth about
one million dollars; Missouri and other States
almost as large amounts. Simple Justice de-
mands that the District should DO put on an
equality In this respect with the other por'
lions Of the Union. The school tax here Il
very large, and larger than the people ought
really be- called upon to bear.

Mn. LYNCH, OF MAINE, introduced bill
yesterday providing that the President shall
in future be elected by the people direct; in
other words, that the electoral college shall
be abolished. The subject has lately been
discussed a good deal in the newspaper press
ind public opinion seems to be pretty equally
divided upon the question. It Is safe to say
that, although the present method Of electing
a President Is clumsy and In many respects
Objectionable, the country is hardly prepared
for a change-noL at least, until some greater
safeguards are taken to protect the purity d

youth. Thin hair is thfckened, fall
ing hair checked, and badness often,
though not always, cured by IFS
use. Nothing can restore the hair
where the follicles are destroyed, or
the glands atrophied and deoayed;
but such as remain can be saved by
this application, and stimulated into
activity, SO that O new growth of
hair is produced. Instead of fouling
the hair with pasty sediment, it
will keep it clean and vigorous. Its
occasional use will present 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 formation of dandruff, which is
often SO uncleanly and offensive.
Free from those deleterious sub
stances which make some prepare
lions dangerous, and injurious to the
hair, the Vigor can only benefit, but
not harm it. If wanted merely for
a HAIR DRESSING, nothing else
can be fornd so desirable. Contain
