Every year increases the populari-
ty Of this valuable Hair Preparntipni
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that il is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect-
ed preparation for restoring GRAr
or FADED HAIR to its youthful coloE
making it soft, lustrous, aud silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all cruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourislles
the hair-glands. BY Its use, tho halP
grows thicker and stronger. Ia
badness it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create q now growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t Is the most ceq-
nomioal HAIR DnEssING eyer usod,
as 1t requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, MDs
State Assayor Of Aasenchusetts, says.

he asked the conductor agair, " How FAR
is it to WestGeld?" "About thirty miles
but this train don't stop at We.t6eld. and
you cannot get out there, do you under
sand ~ "Yes. hum"-said the old man.
All was quiet little while, then as the
conductor passed through the car again
the man pulled his sleeve. and asked.
please, say, Mr.. conductor, about how
far is it now to Wes,6eld?" Wearled in
his patience the conductor answered. See
here old man, you've botherea me enough
and if you will mind your business, and
not ask me again, III stop the train and
let you get off at Westfeld." His inter-
rogator was about to speak. out the con-
ductor hurried along about his duty. The
passengers were in high expectation Of a
scene when the old man should get off at
Westfield. The train rushed on and shot
by West6clda mile before the conductor
remembered his promise, when he sudden.

stopped. Hc went to the engineer and
told him to back up to WestGeld. The
engineer demonstrated, but the conductor
was determined and back they went. Tn,

Credit MObilier, Committees Re-
mort,

The special Credit Mobilicr committee
of the House submitted their report, to-
Gay. After quoting the resolution under
which t'cy were appointed and acted, the
committee give history Ofthe connections
Of the Credit Mobllier company with the
Union Pacific railroad by the Hcxie and
Ames contracts, the facts in connection
with which have been heretofore published.
The committee then rohearse the proceed
ings of Mr.. Ames in placing some Of the
stock of the Credit Moblier. and the dif-
6cutics which arose between him, Dur
ant and McComh. Prior TO the session Of
December. 1867. Ames had had no ne.
gotiations with congressman, except with
Mr.. Scofield.
The committee say they cannot enter
tain any doubt us to the motive and pur.
pose of Ames in contracting to let con-
srsssmen have Credit Mobiler stock at
par, when it was worth double that sum.
He desired TO enlist strength and friends
in congress to resist any cncroachmcnts
on the rights and privileges already secur.
ed, and it was his purpose to create in
them purpose identical with his own. st
is slready vowed in his letters to McComb,
especially IN those in which he says be
intended TO "place stock where it would
do the most good" and 1--WE want more
friends in Congress. Another letter
gives the PHILOSOPHY of his action, where
he says he has I" found no difficulty in get
ting men to look after their own property
the comait,ee are satisfied that Ames fear
cd that, when the great profit should be
come known, there would be danger oil
congressional investigation, and tina
those with whom he dealt did not -fearaH,
hostile legislation. And the committee be
lieve that Ames specially designed to Sc
cure the defeat OF the efforts OF the Wash
burnes Of Wisconsin aud Illinois to regu
late the transportation rates over the Pa
ci6c road, and other measures, and the,
quote reference of Ames and Washburne
in one of his letters, in support of thi
belief.
In taking evidence tie names OF sena
tors we're involved and their cases wer
investigated, and that evidence havin,
been sent to the senate, the comnlitte
consider its duty as to senators fully per

In regard to members it the presen
