gloss and freshness Of yoath. Thin
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 new
growth Of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its 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-
ton 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 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 rich, glossy
lustre, and grateful perfume.

really admirable must, it seems to us,
be the pronounced opinion of every

There is scarcely a single point Of di

Whilst we do not regard it perfect By
any means we have no doubt it is con
siderable of an improvement upon tht
present instrument, and believe t!!e
best thing that can now be done will bt
to adopt it. This is our view, after
very careful and mature deiiberali0n
and we think it is one in which a large
majority OF the voters of the State Will
eventually, concur. There is consid
cradle to gain and nothing at all to lost
by adopting it. All the expenses con
nected with it has already been incu,
red, and both its friends and its enc

quite an improvement on the old, i
not all that could be desired, hence i
is certainly better to adopt it than Il
continue the present one, or undertake.
through another similar convention, a

shall be an improvement upon this

strument, and an advocate for its aiop
tion by the people of the State.

1t must be said that he is very graceful, hand.

show In the least that he was bored, as he surely
must have been. To be sure his dominions are not
the largest in the world, and he cannot expect the
greeting that awaits the mightier potentates; but
he certainly has had more imposing throngs than
this TO shout for him. He was very plainly
dressed. in a simple naval uniform. with no otner
ornament than few gold strips upon the cuff and
plain naval cap, with no ornament at all more
than any ofrcer OF rank might have when In un-

not accompanied by any musical instrument were
a dozen in number and were led by blacksmith,

Several national songs were sung IN
most excellent and stirring manner, and

This is the day on which the new Icelandic

tainiy good luck in store for her. The weather has
been very hne both yesterday and to-day. The air
was clear aud the mountains came out in the
bright SUNSHINE showing great cones streaked
with white and cliffs OF purple and lilac, while be.
low lay long stretches OF meadow lands cloched
with green. delicate summer mist filled the air

Arrival Of the King.

RE1KIAvIK, July 81, 1874
The King, as was expected, arrived yester-
day morning, and the day was one OF un-heard-
OF excitement to the Reikiavikers. Early in
the day the Meet was sgnalled from the beacon

belched forth rom ship after ship. making the Old
vocanic cliffs air!y ring again as echo answere

to their anchorage the yards were manned, and

threats was shouted concerted greeting to the
King The Kings ship. the Jylland, did not
answer 1t, bat the other two, the Helmdar aud the
Fylia, did, and We added to the cang with our
two brass guns. Then the King went ashore to
the little nag-bedecSed jetty, and there was
another salute all round, and another shout Of
welcome, which this time came from the shore, for
everybody had turned out 10 greet their King.
The shout was very cordial, considering that the
Icelanders nave so little occasion to cheer any
thing. and are, therefore, little used to It. /
