Mr.. FELLOWS is daily in receipt of letters
of inquiry, from various parts, respecting his
Syrup Of lIypophosphites. One recently re-
ceivcd, leads to the belief that the public mis-
take his meaning in reference to its effect in
imparting superior energy to the mind. Where
the intellect has been impaired by over work
or kindred causes, the use of the Syrup, to-
gether with proper precautions in the use of
food, clothing, exercise and rest, will restore
full power to the brain and nerves. Saper-
GRITTY of genius consists in great capacity of
brain for assimilating material from every
quarter, and OF developing in proportion, but
10y far the greater number are not well
endowed by nature, consequently lacking this
capacity, it would be impossible to find
Uranium space for material necessary to con-
stitute the brilliant genius. Hence, although
the Syrup will assist in restoring the mind
which is lost, it cannot change a natural born
idiot into an intelligent man. d&wlw

At the present time LOO, 900 acres are con-
tracted and not conveyed, and the whole num-
Der of acres still remaining undsposed OF is

The Land Agent recommends continuance

American Railway. As questions of much
Importance have arisen under the action OF
the legislature granting aid to this corporation,
involving the rights OF the State and Of set

should be given.
The Land Agent after referring 10 several
acts of the Legislature, says: Under and
by force of these several acts, resolves and
deeds, the railway company now make claiN

and that therefore the grant conveyed to this

veyed to settlers. No particular specitca-
ton of the lands thus claimed has been sub
mitted, though requested, but the result
would seem to be as now stated.

given to the party that they will be regarded
as trespassers and treated as such, if they

Lyons Kathairon, aided by brisk application
OF the brush to promote the absorption Of the
fluid by the scalp, will stop the thinning out
process in forty-eight hours. The roots from
which the dead tiamente were shed will soon
be reendowed with vitality, and new growth
will speedily spring up on the denuded places.
This work of reproduction will go on until the
damage is completely repaired, and the luxu-

wither or fall out as long as the vitalizing ap-
plicaton is regularly continued.

at Bailey's factory at Winthrop village. The
