From the Covington, KY, Journal
Considerable talk was created on the
streets yesterday, growing out of q lit
tie unpleasantness, which occurred ut
the Coviugton post Office, Thurday last
between the venerable p. NJ, Grants
father, and the almost equally yener-
able Assistant Postmaster According
to the radical Cincinnati Gazette, the
affair was only repetition Of what has
occurred several Smes OF late. The
Assistant, when he assumed The duties
of the office, claimed tnat it was from
a patriotic desire to relieve his aged aud
life long friend, and all without com
pensation.
The venerable Jesse has reason to
believe that he is soon to be superse-
ded, and has Il lurking suspicion, no
doubt, that the self sacrifcing A. P
NJ, is endeavorings to incorporate his
pedal extrenities pto his (Jesse's) Of
fetal shoes, aud that his show of dis
interestedness is only a Blind to con
eeal his real designs. But individuals,
ike republics, viii prove uugrateful
1t IS rumored that the postmaster at
tempted to put head on the assistant
with his cane, but this IS denied Of
the whereabouts of the sable Dixon
all this time no mention is made Not,
withstanding all this ''no man at this
moment possesses the cenfdeuce of Mr.
Grant more fully than does Mr. Eas
ton.

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 c,ean. 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 a 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 splendid, glossy
appearance. a. A. Hayes, Md,
State AsSayer of Massachusetts, says,

Ayers Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,

OOuSQ, ofOncultlS, ASluuld,
and Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine has anything won so widely and so deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through long
series of years, and among most of the races of
ton, as it has become better known. Its uniform
of the lungs and throat have made it known as re-
liable protector against them. While adapted to
mder forms of disease and to young children, it is
at the same time the most efectual remedy that
be given for incipent consumption, and the dan
gerouS affections of the throat and lungs. As pro-
vision against sudden attacks of Group, it should
be kept on hand in every family and indeed as all
are sometimes subject to colds and coughs all
should be provided with this antidote for them
Although settled COHsu1nJ JItiOH is thought in
curabe, still great numbers of cases where the dis
seemed settled, have been completely cured,
and the patient restored to sound health by the
Cherry PectOrdl. SO complete is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that
the most obstinate of them yield to it. When moth.
ing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pee
tOrai they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great pro-
lection from it.
Asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry PectOrdl in small and frequent doses.
So generally its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them here, do more
than the public that its qualities fully
maintained

NEW York, July 19-A dispatch from

tor Wilson, the candidate for the Vice
Presidency, addressed a gathering, most
OF which was colored, there yesterday.
dc said the contest was not between men,
but between the principles Of two organi.
cations arrayed against each other. Grant
and Greeley were before the people.
Some men will tell you you can vote the
Baltimore and Cincinnati ticket and claim
to be Republicans, but you could as well
have been In Lees army, and say
that you had fought for the defense
Of tho union. To vote for Greeley Is to
vote to defeat the Republican party, 1t
means not only the defeat OF that party
but Its determination. They say 1t Is
time Tor this great party to die. Why
we have just begun TO live and We will
live thousand years. He cannot see
why the Republican party which has
done SO much should die. A greater work
than the emancipation, was to change the
hearts Of these three millions Of Ameri.
