ree-Card Monte----Canada BiIl.


On Thursday evening last while re-
turning from Cleveland, we were a wit
ness to one. of those operations by
which three card monte men transfer to
their pockets the unearned money of un-
suspecting men. Canada Bill and his
gang were on board, and soon became
interested in one of the passengers
whom they succeeded in swindling al
one stroke out of 5000. We attempted
to go into the other car to summon Con
ductor Davis, but was stopped and
threatened with being thrown from the
car if we did not desist. Finally Davis
came in and the victim squeaked. just
then the train stopped at Brownhelm
to attend to ''hot-box," when Bill pre-
tended to light out, but hid in one of
the saloons at that place. The whole
gang, however, managed to get to San
dusky where they gotoff. Huron Times

We are indebted to the kindness, Of
Mr.. George Krebs, our Deputy collector,

from the 10th of April to the 1st of De

were 46 steamers, 27 schooners, / scow
and 6 barges-total sO-total tonnage
6731-total number Of men 1882. Ex-
ports: there was wheat 1000 bushels,
corn, $500, oats 10000, lumber 2,527,
600 feet, slaves 90, 900, wood so cords,
brick 1O5,OOO. Entries, steamers As,

cts $4,000, cedar posts 200, cement 800
barrels, coal $50 tons, ice 100 tons. The
above figures can not, however, hardly
be taken as fair average, as the sea

might have been much worse. Vessels
234 tons can come up to the elevator,

Fremont as a boating Point.

During the most agreeable months of
the year, considerable boating is in
dulged on our river, and it is by no
means uncommon TO see some spirited
competitions in rowing or sculling.
Quite little feet of small crafts, owned
by residents may frequently be seen cir
culating around, while a few strange
importations sometimes appear on the
scene. Making up small pleasure par
ties for a sail or row down the river is
quite fashionable during the summer
months.

Fremont for spOrtsmen.

Lovers of the gun need never return
from Fremont empty handed in the
duck season, if they are any sort of
shots. The club houses are each season
besieged, while struggling parties taking
a trip down the river are of frequent oc-
cu1rence, and be it said, right here, we
have seen some of the finest ducks we
ever saw, shot in our marshes and with
average ability to shoot, thosewho return
empty handed have only themselves to
thank. Partridges, quail and other
game birds are not SO plenty, but there
is ample ground around us over which
sporting enthusiastics may get permis-
sion to shoot should they wish.

gloss and freshness of youth. 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 a pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling of, 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 iniu-
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

THE HEAD LIGHT"

Almost every one who has inhaled
its fragrance, voluntarily confesses
it to be really light-a-head of any
thing of the kind they have hitherto
taken in hand. Still, this opinion
must not be understood to indiscrim-
inately include every other brand Of
cigars-the comparison only being
confined within the limited invest
ment of a dime to crafty the fancy
and at that leaving only a most in
significant margin to wholesale. We
congratulate the KNAPP BEos. on
their enterprise, as also their custo-
mers on obtaining so exceptional a
treat at popular price. The "Head
Light"contains fine leaf,is well-made
and represented in three shades. For
a pleasant smoke, and a profitable
one, we desire none before it, while
the "Head Light" store will always
be found amply stocked with abun-
dance of other attractions exceeding
ly interesting to a smoking commu-

A few Words on the Subject Of Sewing
Machines, &C. A brief Conversation
Designed to Enter tain Ladies.

Next to the shrine of fashion itself,
there is probably not a more inviting
theme for ladies-the world oVer-than
the sewing machine, with which, in the
present day, is found associated, at most
leading agencies, the more modern insti-
tuition of supplying fashionable paper
patterns, by which every lady is enabled
to become accomplished in the makeup
Of the most modern costumes. 1t is an
established fact, beyond doubt, there
has never been another ofE-shoot ofman's
ingenuity more universally appreciated
and patronized than this ingenious
piece of mechanism, which fact amply
explains the why and wherefore so many
different makes have been imposed on
the public. Each has laid claim to some
peculiar detail in construction, all have
in every legitimate way held themselves
up as a model institution. But there
can butbe one best, and that's mostsatis-
factorily proved by the popular verdict
-even the peoples choice demonstrated
in the largest and most wide spread
sales. This distinction, we must say
has fallen to the lot Of
THE FAvoRITE DOMESTIC.

POPULAR LUXURY.
The "Head Light" Demonstrates Itself
Light-a-head Of all other Lights---
How, Why and Wherefore.

Throughout the world-civilized
or uncivilized-there is probably
no propensity that has shared more
largely of devotees, in every grsde Of
society, than the luxury of smoking.
Itis nowhere a novelty, and rather
than decline, it would seem to be
growing in popularity. Hence, how
natural its votaries should endeavor
to emulate each other as connols-
seurs of genuine article! Smoking,
whether viewed as an occasional
luxury, or an acquired habit capable
of establishing itself a necessity
may, or may not come within the
Jurisprudence of a cultured discre-
ticn-that we leave for determine
ton by more competent scientists
but there is no blinking the fact
that the majority of christendom-
able and defective--have smoked,
do smoke, and WILL smoke, leaving
of necessity, the next important

Union Soldiers Snubbed.

Prompted thereto, no doubt, by the
fact that by far the largest number of
the employees Of the present Democratic
House were ex-rebel soldiers, Mr. Fort,
Republican. of Illinois, offered a reso-
luton that in all subordinate positions,
under any Of the cfiicers of the House,
preference should be given to wounded
Union soldiers. This was the height of
folly, and Mr.. Fort soon discovered it.
A body presided over by man whose
only qualification was earnest friend
ship for the South )" the clerk of
which was rebel the sergeant at
arms the same who kept in order the
chivnlry when they assembled in Rich
mond for the purpose of destroying the
country, and whose postmaster was a
rebel cavnlryman, is not the place to
advocate successfully special distinction
for Union soldiers Sunset Cox, of
New York. whose notorious States
rights principles, and prominence as a
virulent sympatizer during the war, are
as we'll recognized as his stale jokes,
made haste to relieve his Southern
friends Of any embarrassment which
might have grown out of the resolution,
by offering an amendment ssthat as the
union of the States is restored, all citi-
zens thereof are entitled to considera-
tion in the appointments to Office under
this Government. This is all we'll
enough /; but Mr. Cox, as vel. as every
other member Of Congress, knew at the
time he offered The resolution that its
sentiment had not been observed in the
selection of the officers of that BODY
that it was being daily and hourly ig-
norcd. Tie knew .tat the South had
FIVE men in place where the North had
one and he further knew that the fact
that an applicant had teen a distin-
gulshed or faithful soldier of the rebel
lion was an all prevailing influence in
securing him place. And Mr.. Cox,
therefore, display ed neither sense nor
Wit in thus seeking to deceive the coun-
Try. Such tricks will not win, even if
played by the clown of the body They
are too transparent. Ii is needless to
say that all the rebels and Northern
DIRT caters voted against Mr. Forts
resolution. 1t is the first, but it is not
