Every year increases the popf
larity of this valuable Hair Pre-
aration, which is due to mo-
alone. We can assure our e..
patrons that it is kept fully up l..
its high standard; and it is the oa
ly reliable and perfected prepara
ton for restoring GRAY OR Fam
HAIR to its youthful color, maxim
it soft, lustrous, and silken. The
scalp, by its use, becomes white ana
clean. 1t removes all eruptions and
dandruf, and, by its tonic proper
ties, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. BY its use, the
hair grows thicker and stronge"
In badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most
economical HAIR-DREssING ever
used, as it requires fewer apPIlca-
tons, and gives the hair splendid.

AN ABLE AND CONVINCING SrEECEI-IUGIlESS
ISLANDER on THE LABoEING wHITES-HoW
FREDERICK WILL VOTE.
Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.I
WINCHESTER, VA. September s, 1873.
4 short notice of the noble effort of Colo
mel Withcrs on saturday was sent you by
telegram. Our citizens looked for his arri-
val with great pleasure, as he is justly popu-
lar in this section. The courthouse hall,
where he spoke, was completely filled with
most enthusiastic and intelligent audience,
who listened with the most undivided at
tentiou to his eloquent and impressive
speech. Those who have heard him before
pronounce his effort here equal to anything
ever heard, and think, too, that that IS say
inc GOOD deal. Unlike many of our popu-
lar orators, Colonel Withers does not
underrate the intelligence of his audience
and deal so much in glittering gene
ralties rs in solid and substantial reason.
While his speeches here contained some
eIcuuent and touching passages, in the main
he addressed himself more to the reason than
"a the sensibilities; and if there were any
wayering spirits present we do not see how
they could have escaped conviction. He
first demonstrated that whether we would
or no the whites and blacks were arrayed
against each other in this campaign. and lie
showed conclusiyely, by rretragable proof,
this was not the doings of the white people.
He exhibited statistics TO show the condition
which Radical rule had brought upon the
southern States where it has had sway, and
cont,lSted the peace and prosperity of Nir-
rinia under Conservative rule with the ruin
of these States. and called upon the people
to perpettate this rule here by an over
whclming majority. He did not say
rrcat deal about the candidates
ON the respective tickets. The record of
Colonel Hughes was examined and dis
cussed, and when Colonel Withers read that
passage of HughcS's Lynchburg speech in
which lie declares the superiority of the
negro race lis aborers to any in the world
one Of the sturdy yc0mcn of Frederick
county called out in loud voice, B." He had
better not get up here and say that" 10
which Withcrs replied that he had said it at
Lynchburg. and he then appealed TO every
laDoring man to determine that the author
of tina. declaration should never be Governor
of Virginia.
There were many of our citizens who
were not able to be present, and alter many
solicitations Colonel WitherS consented to
speak again at night, when another large
crowd assembled TO hear him. This second
speech was received with the same enthu-
Sasm as the first. In the evening he was
followed by an eloquent appeal from Colonel
f. w. NJ. Holiday, and at night by General
James II. Williams and Major K. W. Hunter.
All these gentlemen made stirring speeches,
and have kndled spark in this county
which, If kept alive by our canvassers, will
spread and increase until we will give Il
larger Conservative majority in Novem Der
than we have since the war. Il.

A Word to Clerks Of Courts.

TO the Editors Of the Dispatch:
Would it not be we'll to call the attention
of clerks of courts, through the press, to thu
duty devolsins on them by virtue of an net
providing fora general registration ofyotcrs
approved April 18th, 1870, section S, TO fur
niSh registrars with list of such persons Us
may have died or been convicted of felony
within their respective counties and corpo'
rations:
A careful revision of the lists by the regis
trars in accordance with the lists thus fur
nished by clerks of courts would necessarily
result in material dimnution of the voting
strength Of those whose instincts would natu
rally lead them to FOLLOW Hughes. And lest,
pcradyenturc. Il single clerk fail TO furnish
it. it may be worth while to put in re-
minder.

TCGrrcspondcnrc Of the Richmond Dispatch.
FLOYD COURTHOUSE, EA.,l
September 6, 1873.
To-day has been one long TO be remem
bercd in Floyd. II was very generally al
ycrti<rd throughout the county that on to-
day General ,IameS l.. kcmpcr would adj
dress the people of this county ut this place
and although it was Il very unfortunate tm(
TO insure the attendance of very large
crowd, yet Il. an early hour the honest cltl
zcnS and sturdy yconmnry of Floyd were
seen ilocking over the different roads, I'll
converting TO the one grand centre OF attrac
ton. to listen again to the trumpct-!ikc tones
OF That voice 50 many OF them had bcSrt
ohcycd while following the gallant kcmpcr
upon the battlefield. Ii was at first arranged
that the speaking should take place in the
courthouse building, but it was very soon
demonstrated that the house could not At
comncdaic the crowd, which, ut the early
hour Of 10 o'clock, Tucked upon the streets
of our village. Seats were accordingly ar
ranged OH the public square, and soon very
large and attentive audience had filled them.
General kcmpcr appeared 1T about liz
o'clock. He was presented to the audience
bv Captain William II. Morgan, one OF the
Generals gallant followers in the late war,
by Il few neat and appropriate remarks.
General kcmpcr then took the stand, and
for two hours and fifteen minutes, in the
most clonncnt and forcible manner, kept
his audience Spcl-bOund, wrapt in allah.
sorbing interest, while he ably and most I'M
mcrcifully exposed the malice, yindictirc-
moss, and corruption Of the Radical party
and it leaders.
We have never seen anything to equal the
wrapt attention and intense interest mani
tested by tie audience while General KEN
per was speaking. Perfectly quiet, all at
tcntivc, they seemed to hang upon the words
that fell from his lips as if they realized that
they Were lraught with the interest OF life
and death to themselves and families. We
haze no hesitation in saying that there was
not minute from the time he commenced
till the close OF his remarks when Il perfectly
correct photograph could not have been pro-
cured of the entire audience. General Klein
per closed his remarks, amid the most deaf
cning applause, with the assertion that he
would be Nirginia's next Governor. And
we are certain that this county, so far is she
is concerned, will pall by far the largest III l.
jority for kc!npcr, Wiier>. and Daniel that
she has ever been known TO give for any one
since it was formed.
Mr.. Gilman was introduced after General
kcnIpcr, and in his USUAL happy style enter
tanned the audience for more than an hour.
General kcmpcr and party left this place
this morning about O'Clock for Chris
tianSburg. IN r0Gte for Scott, their next a'-
poinlmcnt, and rs they drove OFF the fare
we'll We gave them was "thrcc cheers for
Kcmpcr, Withcrs, and Daniel" given rs only
Il Floyd crowd knows how 10 give them.
Send Us more such men. Wcnever tire OF
listening to them. W. u. Y.
