Brown and Nat Fraser, two colored men liv-
ing together with their families in house IN
McBfides lane, quarrelled about a slishtof-
tered to the latter's wife BY Brown, aud coolly
went out into the street TO fight. Nat began
the fight by slapping Brown and curslng him.
when the latter, although much larger man,
drew his knife and gave Nat several severe
stabs, and slashed on the outer part OF both
his elbows as he stood upon his guard. Fhe
police here. broke up the fight and carried the
complaints to the Guardhouse, where the
wounded man bled fearlully. He was sem
home to have his cuts attended to, and 1t II
probable, owing to the severing ofthe muscles
that his arm will be stiff for life. brown Il
held for examination at the Guardhouse.

Grant Thinks GreeIey's Chances
sItm-New Developments.
WASHINGTON, May 9.-The President
yesterday received a large number OF
visitors, among them Colonel John w.
Forney. The nomination of Greeley
was incidentally alluded to, when the
President good naturally remarked that
the American people would never elect
him to the Office of President.
Efforts continue on both sides to save
the treaty of Washington, and with 1t
Gladstone's ministry and the reputation
of Fish. The determination of the
Government remains mistaken, and
Schenck has again been required to in
form Earl Granville that anything less
than full equivalent Of the proposed
arbitration OF our consequential claims
by the tribunal at Geneva, and every
suggestion that these claims should be
formally withdrawn from such arbitra-
ton is inconsistent with the rights of the
United States Government, under the
treaty. In the hope Of saving the
treaty, the recent developments are not
yet sufficient to encourage any modiii-
cation Of the unfayorable opinion ex-
pressed with regard to its prospects.

81 SIN like an old hemlock- withered
at the top" said a venerable Indian
chief, pointing to his thin and bleaching
locks. Thousands of men and women
in civilized society, much younger than
the old Sycamore, are like him, with
cred at the top, simply because they
have neglected TO use the means of pre-
serving and Identifying the hair, which
science had placed at their disposal, II
LYONS Kathairon be faithfully applied
once or twice day, to the iibers and
the scalp, It IS just as impossible that
the hair should decay, wither, fall out or
beoeme harsh and fuzzy, as that n
meadow duly refreshed with nightly
dews and sanIit rains, should become
arid and barren of green blades, This
matchless preparation not only keeps
the hair alive and the skin of the head
in healthy and clean condition, but
abtualIy multipIies the filaments and
imparts to them q luster, hexibility and
wavy beauty unattainable by any other
mode of treatment. 1t does not, like
the metallic and sslphurous hair dyes,
dry up the natural moisture of the
scalp, but supplies nutriment to the
roots of the hair and vigor to the fibers.
