EA remarkable dandy has just
died in San Francisco. His name
was A. j. Stevenson. Although
very old, he used dyes and cosmetics
so deity that be looked to be only
middle-aged. He was wealthy and a
bachelor, and his aim in life seemed
to be to wear the best clothes that
could be bought. Many years ago
he was implicated in the abduction
of a young woman, was tried on a
criminal charge, but it was supposed
that liberal expenditure of money
averted conviction. And now he
has done bis last dying, has this dan

have passed as good an examination
as usual, perhaps better but you
don't know anything. Like those
young fellows Just back from their
graduation college, you think you
know a great deal That is a great
mistake. If you ever get to be of
any account, you will be surprised at
your present ignorance. Don't be
too big for your broechos. Go round
to the Justices court, Try to learn
something. Don't be afraid Set
off upon high key. You will. no
doubt, speak great deal of nonsense
but you will have one consolation !:
nobody will know it. The great mass
of mankind take sound for sense.

rascals. There is no absolute ncccss-
ity that you should. You may be
smart without being tricky. Law
yers ought to be gentlemen. Some
of them don't come up to the stand
ard, and are disgrace to the frator-
nifty. They know more than any
other race, generally, and not much
in particular. They don't know any
thing about sandstones, carbonifer-
Gus periods, and ancient land-animals
known as fossils. Men that make
out they know great deal on these
subjects don't know much. They
are humbugs-superb humbugs.
They are ancient land animals them

You are dismissed with the sincere
hope OF the court that you will not
make asses of yourselves.

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 pasty sedi-
ment, it viii 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-
clearly 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

NEXT Saturday, We hope, will be re-
n,cmbered by the Republicans through
out Andrew county, as the day fixed for
the Mass Meeting in Savannah, TO ap-
point delegates to attend the Convention
at Forest City, on the 18th, to nominate
candidates for the Constitutional Con-
vention. Let not this meeting fail on
account Of lukewarmness. Notwith-
standing the general OPPOSITION of the
Republicans to the holding of this con-
vention, the Democracy have thrust it
upon the State, and it now devolvcs up
on them to do their whole duty to their
country, and retrieve, as far as possible,
the disasters of the past, unite together
again rs a compact party, and elect our
ablest and purest men to this responsible
trust. This is the duty of the hour
this is the mission of the Republicans of
the great Northwest. Let them meet it
like patriots struggling to advance their
country's best interests.

The Democracy are at their old game,
which they have so often practiced with
success, i'll regard to candidates for the
State Convention. In those Districts
where they have the majority they are

DUTY.

There is an idea existing among many
persons, that their duty often cor flicts
with their interest. This is not true. for
duty and interest are inseperable. When
we sacrifice anything for the comfort or
enjoyment of another, we are eXcllang-
ing that which would give us perhaps,
but a moments pleasure, for that which
is the very foundation of happiness, the
greatest consolation in adversely, the
greatest stimulous to action, and. the
greatest of all worldly possession :, an
approving conscience. May we erer do
our duty and as that bright cloud which
guided the Israelites lighting their path
way and leading them to a better land,
so, let the sense of duty be to us. ever
lighting IL pathway and leading us to
better and more holy actions. l..

To tie Editor Of tie Republican:

To tie Editor Of tie Republican:
| see in the last issue of the Patron, a
call addressed to me, and stating that if
[ will allow my name to be used at the
coming election, for delegate to the Con-
stitutional Convention, that | will re-
ceiIe Il hearty support from the many
good Conservative men, who have the
welfare of the State at heart. There is

fellows, rest assured that | would spurn
any and all prospects of promotion to be
acquired in that way. In Il government
like ours, where all power belongs to the
people, and where all privileges emanate
from them. it will be a responsible trust.

power, and demagogues have lost their
impudence,and that the time is now at
hand when all can unite in promoting
peace. harmony and prosperity through
out the land.
With this short sketch of my views, to
go before the people as a candidate for
IL seat in the Convention, a seat to which
the ambitious may aspire. but to which
the patriot alone is worthy, if the par
TALLY of my fellow citizens confer on
me the right to occupy a seat in the con-
yention, they may rest assured that they
will be represented by one Invested of
every emotion of party feeling, interest
ed alone in promoting the good of our
common country.

response to the call made upon me, a
place in your paper, and all the papers
in the District will give it an insertion.
