use. Nothing can. restore the hair
where the follicles are destroyed, or
the glands atrophied and decayed;

WEDNESDAY Fehrnarr >

WEDNESDAY, February "A, 1875.
THE House Metropolitan Police bill was
taken up. Mr.. Furlong said that this bill
would be burthern too hard for the tax
payers of Warren county to bear; that it
would inflict such tax that no taxpayer
however rich he might be, could pay to
support the proposed force. He presented
the facts and figures to show what it would
cost. He moved to reject the bill, and
called for the previous question; the pre-
vious question was lost.
Mr. BARROW (coh) advocated the bill.
He said he didn't believe this bill would
increase taxation. He had read in the
Vicksburg Herald attacks on the police
force of that city; it gives them shall Co

Mr. GLEED, (col.) hoped the bin would be
referred 70 Committee. Numbers of cities
had Metropolitan Police bills, and he could
not see very great objections to this bill.
Mn. GRAY, teol-) also wished the bill re-
ferred. He moved to lay the motion TO re-
ject on the table. The Chair ruled the
motion out of order.
Nh BEaNKTT said he would take his pis-
tol out of his pocket and blow his brains
out before he would vote for this bill
There would be a first class funeral on this
floor before he would outrage himself and
the people of this State by such action.
Mr.. STONE moved the previous question
the bill might be discussed for two weeks
