A preparation so widely and favor
ably known as Halls Vegetable Sici-
han Hair Renewer, needs few words
of praise from US. This compound
has won its way to the highest favor
in the public mind; and multitudes
who have vainly used other remedies
for the restoration of their hair, have,
on trying the Sicilian Renewer, been
made glad by the speedy restoration
of their gray hair to its natural col
or, and the thin locks thickened up
as in the days of early youth. 1t al
so prevents the hair falling out,
makes it soft and glossy, and is al
together the best preparation for its
intended purpose before the public.

The Belgian Cable Towing Com
pany was chartered some time since
by the New York Legislature, and
after two years of experiment has at
last gone into operation on the Erie
Canal. A steel wire cable has been
laid from Buffalo to Lockport and
two steam barges, drawing heavy
tOws, have passed along it. The
cable is laid in the bottom of the
canal, and attached to wheel in the
side of the boat by means of crap
Pile; it then passes over other grooved
wheels, and is allowed TO fal, back
into the water in the rear. The
wheels are 50 arranged thatthe cable
can not slip from them, and every
thing attached is drawn along over
the cable, hand over hand, as ii
were.
That the City of Washington
disaster failed to outdo in horror the
''Atlantic" catastrophe is no fault oi
the officers of the former steamer
In reckless management the "AtIan-
tic" officers connot hold a candle to
those of the City of Warrington. y
The testimony of the latter shows
that no observation had been taken
for days, owing to to the obscured
condition of the sky, and that there
were differences ranging from "a few
miles" to hundred miles in their
respective reckonings. But the
steamer was kept full headway in a
dense fog when the officers could not
agree as to where she was.
A few years since there was q
Presbyterian minister at Columbus,
Miss, who had a horror of shouting
in church, which fact was we'll known
to his congregation. One day, after
he had preached very spirited ser
mon, an old lady was observed to
leave the church in a very hasty
manner. Meeting her few days
after, the minister asked why she
had rushed from the church so sud
denly the Sunday before. "Well,p y
she responded, %the fact is, Iwas SO
filed with grace in listening to your
sermon, that l found l couldn't con
tain myself, so l ran over to the
Methodist church across the way
and shouted"
Here is one Of Senator Carpenters
arguments in favor of the back nav
grab. He says; "The laxity of life
is restrained by the supervision of q
wife, and the heart is kept alive to
the better feelings of our natare by
the sweet voices and tender touch oil
children. Members of Congress will
have families in Washington. 1t is
better that they should have Mei,
ooon." To which the Cincinnati
Chronicle replies: "As an argument
for retiring Senator Carpenter from
public life this is sufficient. Mer
who talk in this way are not to be
trusted very much in anything. II
is a fact, however, that honest mel
in large numbers, quite as valuable
to the public service as Carpenter
have supported themselves and fam.
lilies in the District for years, and
are now doing it, all the year round
for less than $4,000 salary. Con
gressmeu can do the same, without
inconvenience, if they avoid the
gambling table and other yileness
living honestly in''their own homes.
Such pleas as Carpenters are an in
tolerable offense to the public nos
trils."
