Owing to the hue and cry which has
been raised about diseases contracted
by wearing hair cut from corpses, the
ladies at Paris refuse to purchase any
hair unless from the head Of the living,
and they insist on being present at the
shearing.
So the hairdresser brings to his shop,
at great expense, beautiful peasant
from Brittany, in her national costume.
He takes off her characteristic cap;
she sheds lew tears when the cruel
scissors do their work, and still more
when the fastidious purchaser receives
a splendid braid, which has been in the
store a long time, but has been adroitly
fastened for the occasion, on the head OF
the girl VINO generally has never beer

Now these other Democrats should bear
in mind that McGregor is hard money
man, and in full sympathy with Tilden
and Wall street, and secretly rejoiced
over the slaughter of Allen and Perish
ing, and the rag baby, last fall.-Reposi-
tory.
Neighbor Bascom should bear in mind
that "lying don't become young lady,"
nor an old woman, nor even an old man.
Of the two rag babies, both Republican,
we prefer the elder born, that is "Green-
backs" as being better and cheaper for
the people than National Bank currency.
Neither Allen nor Pershing are avora-
BILE to the National Bank rag baby. And
we have no doubt they prefer the Con-
stitutional currency to either. The Re-
pository is hard money organ, following
in the wake of Schurz. So they all
talked last fall. How is our neighbor on
Babcock and crooked whisky by this
time? Which does he prefer to see ap-
pointed to Office, one-armed Union white

THE Democratic party has ever advo-
Gated and maintained that faithful and
implicit obedience to the Constitution Of
the United States was the only safety
and security for the Union and the peo-
pie. The whole history of the party
while in power vindicates their position
and shows it to have been the only po-
litical organization that ever managed
the affairs Of the General Government
successfully and economically, and in &C.
cordance with the principles of justice
and the Constitution. History demon
strates the truth of this and the record
of the party now in power shows total
disregard of every principle of good
government, and by its blackness and
disasters entailed on the country, causes
Democratic Administrations to shine
with greater splendor.

DEATH or A PROFLIGATE ENG
LLSH ARLSTOCRAT.
New York World, 18th

Henry Somerville Digby, known also
as Lord Digby," cousin to the Earl Of
Derby, was taken to the Bellevue Hos
pital last Sunday from his boarding
house at a South Washington square,
suffering with diphtheria. While there
he complained of much pain in his throat,
On Monday he informed the physician
that he had pushed small stick down
his throat, and had been unable to ex-
tract it again. With difficulty a pair Of
forceps were inserted, and triangular
prism of hard wood was drawn out.
Tuesday night Digby died. He was a
man of extraordinary stature, being six
feet four in his stockings, and we'll pro-
portioned. He came to this country
about six years ago, separated from his
family, the story goes, by difficulty with
his father over the sons prodigal debts.
He was finely educated, and possessed Of
literary abilities, by the exercise of which
he supported himself in comfortable
circumstances, contributing to various
magazines and papers Last Sunday
morning, about four o'clock, he left his
clearinghouse in fit of delirium and
wandered about the streets. Later he
was found by policeman in Twenty
eighth street, near Broadway, talking to
himself in an insane manner, and he was
then taken in charge and carried to
Bellevue, where his landlady discovered
him later. He was the son of the late
Captain George Somerville Digby and OF
Emily Jane Butler, sister of the fifth Earl
of Lanesborough, He was born in
Paris, where, and in Dresden, he lived
during his youth.

Loss Of the Harvest Queen" and All
ON Board.
THE "A DRLATIC' RUNS HER DO WN
IN THE IRISH CHANNEL.

New YORK, Jan, I4,-From informa-
ton received here it is determined, be-
yond a doubt, thst the Harvest Queen,
full rugged ship of the Black Ball line,
was sunk by a collision in the Irish
Channel, and that her crew, numbering
thirty men, was lost. 1t is further be-
lieved from the statements made by the
steamship Adriatc that it was that vessel
which came in collision with the Harvest
Queen.
There is no record of the collision on
the log of the Adriatic, and Captain
Jennings explained to the agent Of the
line as follows;
The collision was so slight that did
not think it worth while to say anything
about it to you. 1t happened little be-
fore 3 o'clock on the morning of Decem-
Der 3Ist. The executive officer had
charge of the steamer. He saw a ship
approaching in zigzag course, so that
he deemed it unsafe to keep tbe Adriatic
in her regular course. He accordingly
stopped the steamer, ringing the bells to
reverse the engine, and sent below for
me. But the ship kept approaching, and
the steamer had backed so far that the
water was just even with the tunnels,
when suddenly the ship turned about,
crossing our bows, and struck her jib-
boom on our anchor stock. myself
was on deck by this time, and under
stood that crys for help had been heard
from the water, and ordered the boats to
be lowered, thinking that perhaps some
sailors had been at work on the ib at the
time of the collision and had been swept
overheard. The ship itself sailed off as
if nothing had happened, and after
keeping the steamer hove to about three
hours without finding anything, ordered
to ring to 60 ahead. Subsequently |
heard some talk among the men that we
had sunk vessel, but that was of course
too absurd to be listened to; the collision
was of no account whatever.
A seaman gives the following version;
On Thursday, December goth, the
Adriatic left Liverpool. About half-past
two Friday morning when off Moyne
Head, the man on the lookout sighted a
vessel on the starboard. The alarm was
given and the vessel changed her course.
About ten minutes passed and the look
gave the alarm again, for the two vessels
were closing fast upon each other. 1t
was a stormy night. A moment passed
and then the Adriatic dashed into the
bow of the stranger. The engine was at
once reversed and the steamer backed a
mile or two. Boats were lowered, and
as they were rowed away the lights of
the strange vessel sank lower and lower
till they reached the waters edge, and
then the hull. masts and all sunk out of
sight The cries of the drowning men
could be distinctly heard and they gave
directions as they foated for a moment,
as to the course to take to find them. No
one, however, was rescued. 1t would
seem that the collision was not violent
enough to disturb the passengers, and
they only knew of it from the talk of the
crew.
The Harvest Queen arrived at Queens
town December 2oth, from San Francis
co, and on the goth instant she sailed for
Liverpool.

A CARD FROM A "WOUNDED YET.
ERAN."
CINCINNATI, January 19, 1875.

CINCINNATI, January 13, 1876.
Colonel Armstrong, Editor Cleveland Plain
Dealer:
dislike card writing but as the status
of American citizens is likely to be here
after determined by the length, breadth
and thickness of military service be-
tween the years 1861 and 1865, cannot
permit the card recently published in
your paper by Col. Allen 7. Brinsmade,
to 90 unnoticed. The Colonel, if l am
able to properly construe his language,
seeks to create the impression That |
never saw service and that my appoint
ment as aide on Gov. Aliens staff with
the rank of major of cavalry in time
of peace,) was, to draw it softly, highly
inappropriate. Permit me to say to the
gallant Colonel Brinsmade that he don't
know what he is talking about. | en-
listed in the Union army in 1861, at the
tender age of sixteen, as a drummer in
the Twenty fourth Ohio Regiment l
served with proud distinction in Vir-
ginia and with the Army of the Ohio in
its campaign under Buell.. l participated
in several gentle engagements (serving
chiefly with the ambulance corps) and
was wounded in the drum at the battle
of Shiloh. My grandfather was also a
General of Militia Please see that Col.
Brinsmade does me justice.
Very respectfully yours,
JOHN A. CoCKERILL, late Colonel.
In these days when men who "battled
for the Union" are once more becoming
consp. .cuOus, we deem it important that
the card of Col. Cockerill should be made
public, in order that no injustice should
be done him by such fair weather SOL
diers as Col. Brinsmade, of Governor
Hayes's staff:-PlGin Dealer.
1t may now be pertinent to inquire,
Amt we all Colonels? Weren't we out
in the service? And were we not pro-
NOTED, for gallant behavior" Of course?
True, 1Ue were not further than Camp
Mansfield, but that is about as far as
many other "loyal" patriots got. If
Cockerill of the Enquirer, and Armstrong
of the Plain Dealer, are going to sport the
title of Colonel that easy, A, McGregor
will have to see that next time we get
Democratic Governor he gets staff ap-
pointment with the title of General or
Colonel-nothing less. Honors are easy
these days, and we being veteran we
shall begin to insist on a share.
