A Novel Hair Restorative.

Persons afflicted with badness
will be glad to hoar that q luxuriant
growth of hair may be produced by
very simple process, described by
a British consul at u Russian port
in his commercial REPORT, In tho
summer of 1875 his attention was
drawn to several cases of baldhese
among bullocks, COWS and oxon, and
tho loss Of names md tails among
horses. A former servant of the
consul, prematuroly bald, whose
duty it was to trim lamps, had a
habit Of wiping his pretroloum-
besmeared hands in his scanty locks,
and after three months of lamp.
trimming experience his habit pro-
cured for him much finer head OF
glossy black hair than he ever pos.
sessed before. Struck by this re
markable occurrence the consul tried
the remedy on two retriever spaniols
that had become suddenly bald, with
wonderful success. His experience
therefore induced him to suggest to
the owner of several black cattle
and horses affected as above stated,
and, while it stayed the spread Of
the disease among animals in the
Same sheds and stables, it affected q
quick and radical euro of the animals
attacked. Tho petroleum should be
Of tho most refined Americarl quality,

With tho palm Of The hand, and

The L ruth About South Carolina.
Now York Sun.

The official report of Colonel
Hunt OF the United States army
stationed in South Carolina at the
time of the November election, which
we print today is an interesting
and important document. It shows
conclusively that the election in that
State was exceptionally quiet and
peaccablc, and that whatever at
tempts ut intimidation wero made
came from Republican negroes, who
III several instances assembled in
armed bodies for the purpose OF
preventing colorcd Democrats from
voting for Hampton. The teetimo-
ny OF this officer, supported by the
reports of subordinate officers in
command of dctachmcnts of troops
that were sent to various parts of
the State, will hardly be questioned
oy any party.
Colonel Hunts account of the
rot IN Charleston on the day after
the election, when tho negroes fired
into the office of The Neacs a,nl
C'o~ieS md undertook to take
possession of the principal streets,
is of peculiar interest," as it shows
That under tho most aggravating
circumstances the Charleston rifle
clubs acted only as conservators of
the peace, aiding Colonel Hunt in
his efforts to maintain orden and
cheerfully obeying the instructions
Ill every regard. 1t also exposes
the conduct of the Republican,
Mayor, Cunningham, on That oc
casion, in q most unpleasant light.
That civic functionary, who has lust
been indicted for fraud, was owl
IDENTIFY indisposed to cooperate with
Colonel Hunt in his cxcrtions to
protect the city from riot; and
when his acts are considered in con-
nection with the communications he
was having at the time with Covers
nor Chamberlain, it is difficult to
believe that he was not willing to
encourage tho rioters, III tire OK.
pcctltion Of making political capital
for his party should serious dis
turbnnceS occur
Another furC that is clearly shown
III this report is that the troops in
South Carolina were intended to be
used by Chamberlain and his con-
fcderates, not for tho preservation
of the peace, but for partisan ends.
because Colonel Hunt would not
disarm peaceable white citizens,
Worthington, the Collector of the
Port, declared that he should be re-
moved within twenty-four hours by
the War Department, and removed
lie was. But he had saved the city
Of Charleston from what would
probably have been fearful massa-
ere of blacks and whites, and his
removal from his command for doing
this he can hardly feel to be u
humiliation.
AS tho facts of the recent election
are investigated, every day brings
forth new evidence of the falsity of
the pretencc that Tildcn gained his
majorities in the South through the
intimidation Of voters and every
day affords now proofs of the mon
strous character of tho means EN-.
ployed by Hayes supporters. The
proceedings in South Carolina woro
of apiece with those in Florida and
Louisiana, and they can only be
