The canar again In Operation.

Elsewhere in the GAZETTE will be found azd
advertisement announcing officially the reopen.
ing Of the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal fOi
trade The Secretary in private note says, "aiteI
six weeks constant work, day and night We have
navigation re uncd, on The line Of the Canal
though many supposed that navigation would moi
be resumed this year"
Certainly the P..sIdent and other officers of
this important work are deserving of the hearty
thanks of the people aud of congratulations at
their hands, for tie success that has attended tbeiI
courage aud energy IN slsrnly meeting and repair
ing the terrible disaster that befell these works.
Such energy will be appreciated; aud as the ne.
cessity for the preservation of the work has been
more fully shown by the great breach In its banks
and the consequent suspension OF the operation Of
the Canal, We should not be surprised If in few
yelrs hence the disaster would be viewed as ben
EFT, and be productive, finally, of financial gain
and an expansion in its ability TO accommodate
the trade much earlier than was expected.

Caught in 1h,Ir onn I.rnn.-

The Radicals OF Maryland held convention
re-ently and passed resolutions calling upon tho
Legislature to repeal the Registry Law, except
for the city Of Baltimore This was certainly an
evidence of great change 10 the minds Of these
people. They passed the law, and the constitu
ton requires the General Assembly to provide bv
law, for uniform registration of the names of ali
the voters in the State But the law was made
WAen CressWell and Others of his party supposed
tiey could carry all the union men in Maryland
over to the Radicals and with negro suffrage and
test oaths forever thereafter hold the power which
they had abused so snamefully by depriving about
one-thrd of the Democrats of their legal right TO
vote. Their registry law is now restriction that
prevents their getilng into power again by means
OF fraud, negro repeating and other illegal votes
and Of course they want it repealed. Radicalism
cannot long flourish where there is fair and honest
dealing at the polls.

sight OF almost carnival gaiety and excitement.
Lines of carriages before the stately houses on

The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1873-01-16


The Vallejo Independent tells the fol,
lowing good story:
a laughable incident occurred one
evening, recently, on the up train to
Sacramento. There were two seats in
the car turned so as to face each other.
One was occupied by a lady and the
other by a Chinaman. Evidently the
lady did not relish the presence of the
Chinaman and set her wits to work to
oust him out. She succeeded about as
follows:
Motioning the Uhinaman to rise, she
explained to him that she wanted to
take the cushions and their frames, and
place them lengthwise across from seat
to seat. John said "all rightee," and
got out in the aisle while she placed the
seats as aboAe described, and then pro-
ceded to lie down on the bed thus i'm
provised, with her head resting on her
valise.
She supposed that the Chinaman
would at once take the hint that the lady
wanted to take little rest, in the space
usually occupied by four persons. But
John hadn't heard of the woman's rights
movement, and at once proceeded to
crawl in and stretch himself by her side,
with hts head on a little bundle of his
own. The Chinese are an initiative
race, and like to do as others do, you
know.
The lady, as soon as she discovered
that she had a bedtellow, got up little
wildly, and started for the next car, to
the infinite amusement of the passen-
gers, who had been watching the little
scene with some interest. John took no
notice Of the fun he had created, but
went to sleep with the whole bed to
himself.

hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that a new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
It's occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
tion of dandruff, which is often so un-
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it a rich, glossy
lustre, and grateful perfume.

a GENEROUS act is always worthy of
note and commendation, especially when
done in such way as not to let the left
hand know what the right hand doeth,
Such was the act of our worthy towns
man, G. L. McCrackin, the other day in
presenting the NJ. E. Society of this
place with ton of the best bituminous
coal. George keeps nothing but the
best hard and soft coal
