Every year increases the populari-
~ of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruH and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, rs it stimulates and nourishes
the hsir-glands. BY its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. 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 eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair splendid, glossy
appearance. A. a. Hayes, MD,
State Assayer of Massachusetts,, says,
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and | consider it the BEST PREPA-
RATION for its intended purposes"

PrQlnofing n Deserter.

The Mayor of New York, in appointing
Fitz John Porter commissioner OF public
works, has by this official act given Demo
cratic aid and comfort to q man who has
been adjudged q traitor. Porter was moi
q rebel. We make this distinction. The
rebels were not all traitors. Indeed very
few of them could justly be SO considered.
They rebelled against the authority Of the
federal government, holding that they
owed allegiance to their States. The
greater number of those who fought in the
Confederate army were actuated by mo-
tives as pure as ever inspired any patriot.
All fair minded men cOncede this. They
were msled by tire dangerous doctrine of
81 to sovereignty, which again threatens
the life of the country. While, then, we
condemn their doctrine as pernicious and
dangerous in the extreme, We have no
terms Of reproach for those among them
who betrayed no trust, who followed their
faith, and fought for their convictions of
right. And We point to the signifi
can't fact that the Democratic party
delights now to honor Confederate
soldiers, We do not seek to convey the i'm
PRECISION that Confederate soldiers are not
honorable and trustworthy men. But on
the contrary we desire to be distinctly
understood that the fact that man served
in the Confederate army goes great way
honesty and integrity. A man who fought
for his opinions, no matter on which side he
enlisted, deserves respect and consideration.
IL Is because these Confederate soldiers are
men of nerve, men Of decision, men who are
willing to take their lives in their hands and
lay them down if necessary to carry out
their honest convictions, that we tremble to
see them sent to the front in our national
councils, - long as they believe and teach
A1~1 l. Sc 49,
They are honest, they are sincere, they are
brave to fault, but they entertain views
which, if allowed to shape national legisla-
ton will inevitably plunge the country into
another civil war.
But when it comes to the endorsement of
q man like Fitz John Porter, man who
holding high command in the army Of his
country, sought, as was found by Q court of
honorable soldiers, to betray his trust, and
to wreck the government which fed him,
we can not find words to express our aston
ishment. The Democracy are guilty of this
endorsement OF a man who to-day, as twelve
years ago, stands convicted of having be-
trayed his cause. A man with this stain
upon his record. has been promoted by q
party. which boasts of its chiva ffv and it's
honor We, among others, would have been
glad II rehearing of his Gaze had been
granted. But he ought to find no other
road to promotion.
IL may be that Mayor Wickham thinks
that the Democracy will look with favor
upon his recognition Of the only Union
General who was cashiered and disgraced
fer conduct deserving death, and for an act
that cost the lives OF thousands of his
fellow soldiers. OF one thing we feel Ger.
tain. Confederate soldiers will not indorse
the act. Brave men despise q traitor, even
when he serves their cause. A deserter has
no friends among honorable men.-&. Louis
