The inventors of BURNETT's COCAINE
knowing that when the4oss of hair occurs, it
is generally from that part of the head where
the greatest heat is necessarily generated, and
that animal fats by their nature induce heat
rather than alleviate it-turned their atten-
ton and pharmaceutical science toward vege-
table oils, as the basis of medicament to pro-
mote the growth and preserve the beauty of the
hair. The OleJn COcOS, or CoCoANUT On, pre-
scented itself most strongly, as possessing many
properties peculiarly adapted for the purpose
but its odor was Objectionable, and its density
Except when exposed to heat) seemed for
a long time to defy all efforts to render it avail
able for popular USE in cooler climates. By a
scientific selection of other ingredients, those
which will chemically combine with the oil
have been discovered, and they together have
produced a compound, which is unqualitiedly
pronounced to be the best that has yet appeared.
In the form presented, this oil is permanent
ly deOrdorzed, and held in combination which
peculiarly adGpts it for the toilet BURNETT's
COCAINE is unrivaled in delicacy and agreea-
bleness-cooling in its nature-and possesses
such penetrating affinity for the secretiOns of
the skin, that it is rapidly absorbed.
Its greatest efficacy is best secured by per-
feet cleansing, before its application, of the hair
and scalp, under which circumstances this oil
GlldyS irritation, remOUeS all tendency to ddnd-
ruff and inrigOrGteS the action of the capil-
laries in the highest degree. Its effect upon
the glossiness and richness of the hair is such
as cannot be surpassed and it is offered to the
public in the firm belief that it only requires to
be known to supersede all other preparations.
We are confident that no one who will make a
trial of its efficacy, will be willing to return to
the use of any other preparation.

A Sense of WEAKNESS

is often felt by persons who cannot locate any
particular disease. II they work. it become,
labor il they walk they soon tire; mental
efforts becomes a burden, and even Joys are
dimmed by the shadow Of this weakness which
is cast over their lives. Recourse is had some
times to stimulants Of a dangerous character.
The advice Of physicians to refrain from active
labor produces no happy results. Why? The
system is debilitated and needs to be built up
properly. PERUVIAN SYRUP will do this very
thing. Like the electric current, i. permeates
the entire system, and harmonizing with the
corporeal functions, it raises up the enfeebled

promptly and well. Sold by all druggists.

LETTER FROM LYNN, MASS.
LYNN, July 31st, 1877

LYNN, July 31st, 1877.
EDITOR OF WHIG:-Since my last, "Old
Prob" has frowned and wept, and my
sympathy has been so aroused that sight
seeing has been cut short. But on several
days of semi sunshine, l was allowed
glimpses of the places named in my former
letter.
Nahant is charming spot, rescued from
the deep, around which the sea serpent
plays and occasionally appears, to puzzle,
and add to the Nahanter'S Summer pleas
ure. A Druidical monument of piled stones,
with gilded serpent entwined around its
cornlce, commentaries visit of this mon
ster some ten years ago. l also came to
''where the woodbine twineth," and was
informed that it was the summer home of
Longfellow. No more belitting spot could
the poet select to court the muses.. Shortly
| came upon the residence of Agazzis-a
plain, one story cottage. | expected to see
some OmnivorouS or amphihiouS animal
dart at US, but was informed that AgaZzis,
Jr., owned the place now. This rocky,
ocean beaten peninsula is studded with an
infinite variety Of charming Summer resi-
dences, upon whose cool piazzas the tired
city owners and children swing in their
low hung hammocks as they gaze outward
over the blue Atlantic and forget their city
cares and fashions claims
Salem. another of the Hubs interest
ing spokes, is IA busy, putting place, with
smoke and steam issuing from scores of
factories, where men and women are en-
ployed and SO well paid, | was told, that
"striking" is not even a probability. OF
course you expect to see and hear about
the witchcraft legends. The Salemtes do
point to some ow-browed houses, where
those unhappy victims lived and suffered,
and whilst doing so add, "Behold how the
torch of education and science has disclosed
the mental delusion; to-day We stand III
the glorious light of intellectual liberty
Close to the water side is the old custom
house, where that weird genius Hawthorne
did duty as its chief officer, all the while
carving his future celebrity as author.
From Salem | proceeded to Peabody,
formerly called South DanvcrS, but whose
name was changed in honor of its bcnefac-
tor, George Peabody, who built and fur
nshed a free library for its residents, and
also donated to it 4 large picture of Queen
Victoria on gold plate, given to him by Her
Majesty for his muniiccnce to London's
poor; besides this many valuable statues of
England and Americas brilliant literary
stars. Wide streets and comfortable, white
painted and green suffered homes, bespoke
the paying thrift Of the people.

WOODLAWN CAMP.

EDITOR OF WmG-Dear Sir:-Presum-
ing that your host Of readers would like to
know the truth in regard to the nu mber of
tents now being erected at our great en-
campment of the M. +. Church, which
begins on Tuesday next. the nth instant,
and will providence willing continue ten
days, | submit the following:
There are now 12S lots taken, which
are more than ever before, since there
has been a camp there. If the grounds are
filled, we will have just 1873 tents, one-half
of which are double tents of the very larg-
est size 14x20 feet.
All the railroads. 4. e. the Phila., Viii. e
Bait, the Phila. Il Bait. Central, and the
Port Deposit & Columbia will carry passen-
gers on every train. to Port Deposit, Coora.
Rising Sun, Rowlandsville, North East
and Perryville. Hacks will positively meet
every train to Port Deposi: and Perryville.
Respectfully, NERITAs.

The spleeny state of the weather when
we visited Marblehead, increased the desc
lation and blighted aspect of this ancient
town, whose mercantile heart has been
eaten out by its recent fire. Perhaps some
Marys may sit on its ruins and bewail its
lost glory; | cannot do it Justice. | was
struck with the contrast this city presented
to that Of Salem.
With the romantic love annals of place
we are always inclined, when a narrator
begins such IA recital, to say Bosh. non
sense, can say little of Lovers Leap.
Here, in this city, | toiled up hill, and up
hill, and was tually hidden "look aIoft "
to the tragic spot. | saw great ,utting
rock farther out than its huge sisters, with
as nice a base below fifty feet as one could
imagin for pair of sentimental fools to
relieve society by throwing their selfish
selves upon.
Boston, whose renown is known rs the
seat of literary growth, needs buta passing
remark. The Zigzag and narrow streets
would not impress you very favorably, but
the many historical associations which cling
would amply repay you for second visit
Kings Chapel, with its weather beaten
sides twined with ivy, and the many in
scriptions upon the tombs, tells of those
who sacrificed all, life and property, strug-
Cling for our liberty. South Church, too,
is standing as relic of the days which
tried mems souls, and at which our friend
pointed to the tomb where lies buried the
author of Mother Goose's melodies whose
stories have helped to while away many
lonesome hours of the iuvinile portions of
the world. The ladies have purchase the
church, to keep fresh upon the hearts of
the present generation many scenes con
necte6 with our revolutionary struggle.
Fanieul Hall. Bunker Hill Monument, and
the Commons, are places too familiar to us
all to need further remarks my letter being
already rather lengthy, the former as being
the cradle of liberty, where the voices of
our revolutionary fathers were heard advo-
eating liberty and death to all tyrants.
This afternoon leave for Bangor. My
next letter will furnish a minute detail of
what | see in Maine, the land of pines,
lakes bears and Indians
More anon, PHILUs.

TVT IIIl V''II " M
VISIT TO THE EIGHTH REGIMENT.

Being in Baltimore this week we visited
Camp Hartford, which is located on Bound
AIRY Avenue, north of Greenmount Gene
terry. This is the camp of the Eighth Regi-
ment VI. n. G. The regiment is commanded
by Col. Charles f. Phelps, formerly Briga-
dicr General of United States volunteers,
Lieutenant Colonel Bnrgwin, late colonel
i'll Confederate army, and Major Cumn,ins
IA graduate of West Point. The regiment
is 600 strong rank and file.
The regiment was inspected by Gov. Car
roll, on Friday of last week. He was much
pleased with it. The pay rolls We're made
ont on last Tuesday, and the men will be
paid promptly on the expiration Of their
term of service. The regiment was re-
viewed by Mayor Latrobe and General PEN
nington, on Tuesday last, and presented
quite handsome and creditable appear
ance. Company E the Cecil company
numbers 66 men. This company is the
crack company of the regiment, and has
the most commodious quarters assigned to
it. 1t is composed of the best material.
The officers and men were all well and
appeared to be having good time. Some
of them remarked they would rather he in
Camp Hartford than at Long Branch. The
strictest discipline is maintained, and the
regiment is rapidly becoming proficient in
military manmuvres.

For Il
PROSPERITY.

Many little things have contributed Won
derfully to the growth of villages and cit
les. Kindness to strangers made Rome mis-
tress of the world. Politeness to visitors
placed Paris at the head Of civilization
1t has been remarked that half the great
fortunes accumulated in other cities are
spent in the capital Of France. Nattel, in
his laws of nations. says that "courtesy to
strangers is the best evidence of civIliza
ton Many treat strangers rudely, not
knowing the injury they do themselves and
their town. Slanderers and gossips enjoy
criticising and villfying visitors from other
places. The pilory and whipping post, if
ever restored, would do little good work
in most places by curing the too prevalent
custom of lying, slandering, backbiting and
lbeling our best citizens and those who
visit them. Those who treat strangers
rudely should be considered public enemies.

TO THE WORKING MEN.

Win the working men of Cecil embrace
the present grand opportunity to free them
selves from the burdens which they have
SO long had to bear? There has not been
a period for many years when the ties of
party were SO loose as now; in fact, the
whole world-political, social and relig iouS
is in better condition to act independ-
emily than ever before. Now is the time
for men who see the right, to act for God
and humanity. There are still few hon
est men who do not think all other men
were created for their especial benefit. All
the trouble we are now suffering has been
brought about by the elevation of bad men
to oflice-hy their rascality and the false
ideas they have inculcated. The enormous
taxes come from extravaganza, and the out
rageously high salaries paid to officers
While you toll and sweat, and 90 with
scanty food and clothing, these gentlemen
are clothed in fine linen and fare sumptu-
ously every day" Here in Maryland they
have got affairs so nicely fixed that every
thing just plays into their hands. Now
the working men have in their ranks per-
sons with brains enough to conduct public
affairs successfully, and integrity enough
to do it honestly. In other places the work
ing men are moving in this direction; and
though there may be some things said by a
few impractiCabeS that are not right, it is
only necessary that the real working men
of the country shall combine to bring
about state of affairs that will cause the
whole land to rejoice. Who will take the
lead in this county, where we have as much
cause for action as there is almost any
where? A WORKING MAN.
We give place to the above, in conform
ity to our rule to open these columns to all.

OBITUARY.,

Mrs. Julia Hart, wife of Robert Hart,
departed this life, July Both, 1877, aged G6
years.
She was born May eth, 1911, was mar
ried October 25th, 1S-, to Geo H. Moore,
who died March 18th, 1889. Afterwards
was married to Robert Hart, March 10Th,
1912.
Mrs. Hart was converted and Joined the
Nj. h. Church at the age of sixteen. She
was a noble Christian, possessing rich
and happy experience. Her integrity she
maintained to the last, and she was one of
noble family, whose influence for good
will never be known.
We stood by the grave of Alexander
Wilson, whose memory is precious, and
being dead, yet speaketh. We watched by
the couch of John A. Wilson, whose kind
ness shed light into many hearts, and
whose usefulness we missed; and on the
3Oth of July, the blood washed spirit of
Julia Hart, released from it's clay, stretched
It's plnlons to greet the brothers gone before
How we miss her. We miss the face
that always greeted us with smile For
she opened her mouth with wisdom, and in
her tongue was the law of kindness. Her
children arise up and call her blessed: her
husband also, and he praiseth her. With
the weeping friends we followed her re-
mains to the church she loved We sang
that grand old hymn, "On Jordan's Stormy
Banks | Stand,' and us We sang, we felt
that the crossing had been made; that the
tired feet and weary head were reclining
upon the green sward of Paradise. We
placed the body in the church yard, near
the door, and left her to her slumbers till
the resurrection morn.

RELIGIoUs.-The Woods Meeting, which
began at Bay View on the 25th ult.. as
sumed the protracted form, and has been
in progress daily since, resulting in several
conversions. Revs. Thompson and Valiant
conducted the service, assisted by Revs j.
c. Lassel, r. S. Rowe, J. NJ Yingling,
and others.
The colored Camp Meeting began yester-
day in D. McDaniers beautiful grove, !
mile north of North East station. \ dozen
or more tents have been taken, and the
meeting will probably continue two weeks
Excellent preaching may be expected
Judging from the names on the programme.
Excursion trains will run from Philadel-
phia and Baltimore on Sunday. This is Il
splendid location for camp, as it is large
well-shaded woods, well watered, and con-
veient. A Sabbath school has lately been
organized at Oak Grove school house, near
Mechanics Valley. 1t is undenominationa,
and is increasing rapidly in number. 1t is
under the superintendent of Mr.. Henry
Wildsmith; besides it is manned by an
efficient corps of officers and teachers, and
bids fair to become power for good in the
community.
