gloss and freshness Of yOalth. Thin
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 new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with pasty sedi-
ment, it will 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 I'M
clearly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and iniu-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it a rich, glossy
lustre, and a grateful perfume.

The Reason of 1t.

The downward tendency of the gold
premium is not altogether owing to an in
creased supply from abroad, though that
may account for it, in part; but principal
ly because the balance Of trade or exchange
is largely in our favor. IF this state Of
things could continue the problem of re-
sumption would soon solve itself. The
financial and business depression which
the country has experienced for four years
past has brought about forced economy.
We have.not imported foreign manufac-
lures largely because We could not pay for
them, and if our importing merchants had
bought largely they would have been com
PEELED to keep their goods on hand for the
lack of buyers, for the masses Of the people
have been unable to purchase. They have
been compelled to a course of economy,
and the country at large having sold more
than Il bought, has received the balance
Of exchange in gold. The production and
export Of our great staples have gone on
as usual, while our Imports have, necessa-
rily been lcssened on account Of the de-
preston and stagnatiOn experienced in all
our commercial interests. II slowly re-
turning prosperity does not cause us to
relapse into our former habits Of eztrava-
gance, the country will still keep the bal
Ance Of trade in her favor.

PRosPEcTs OF ExTEEDISG American Trade
IN THE GERMAN EMPRE.-In response to the
trade circular recently trans mitted from the
Department Of State TO our consular officers,
an interesting report on the prospects for an
extension of American trade in Eastern,
Southern and. Central Germany has been
received from the United States consul gen.
eral at Frankfort on.the- Main.
The best and surest way to command this
extension Of trade, in the opinion of the con
sui general, would be by the establishment OF
central depot at Frankfort, where American
goods and manufactures would be constantly
on exhibition. This permanent depot or ex
hibition to be attended by responsible agents,
men Of strict integrity and financial response.
bihty, TO solicit sales and carry out all the
rules necessary to the full success Of any &C.
tive, legitimate enterprise. A compliance
with these rules and an accommodating spirit
toward the peculiarities Of the people and
their requirements, canncs but lead to a large
and profitable increase in American trade
with that important part Of the German EN-.
pire comprised within the consulate general
of Frankfort. on-the- Main. The very friendly
feeling which prevails among the people to.
ward the United States will greatly facilitate
all commercial relations between the two

A WORD TO BUSINESS MEN.-The
business meu Of the several towns in this
county, except Westminster, never adver-
tise their wares and merchandise. They
appear to be coatent with just such part
Of the general trade as happens to fall to
their lot, without an effort for more. II
they would pursue a judicious system Of
advertising and acquaint the public with
the advantages they are able to offer in
trade, they would enlarge their business
beyond doubt, aud find their profits in,
creased The time for sluggish, stag,
nant system of trade has gone by. Bust
ness will not flow in upon a man, with in
creasing activity, unless he invites it
The newspaper finds its way into every
nook and corner Of the CO unity, and if the
business man publishes the bargains he
has to offer, his publications will meet the
public eye and attract additional trade
Try it, and see if it will not pay, and if it
does, be honest enough to admit it. We
have seen it demonstrated, over and over
again, by the proprietors of country and
village stores, whose success astonished
even themselves. There is no better in
vestment than printers ink, when judi

woIkingmsu,s Meeting.

A written notice posted in this city an
nounced that Workingmen's meeting
would be held in the Court House on
Thursday evening last. About forty per-
sons were in attendance. Mr.. Charles R.
Farver, Of Sykesville, called the meeting to
order, and after few preliminary remarks
introduced to the audience Mr.. Jesse
Gilmore, merchant, of 2l5 West Pratt
street, Baltimore. Mr.. Gilmore com
meneed his address by some general re-
marks upon the relations between capital
and labor. He adverted TO the depressed
condition Of business throughout the coun-
try and to the large number of working
men out of employment, and attributed
the general paralysis Of labor to the evils
of Legislation in the interests of the bond
holders and capitalists, and against the in
terests of the workingmen. He said that
August Belmont controlled the Democratic
party, and Joseph Seligman controlled the
Republican party, aud for twelve years
past legislation 10 Congress had been adj
verse to the interests of labor and in favor
Of capital. Mr.. Gilmore did not tell his
audience, as he might have done, that the
financial policy of the government was
originated by the Republican party alone,
when they had control Of both houses of
Congress, aud that the Democrats had no
responsibility in the matter whatever.
He complained Of the law of 1873 de-
monetizing silver, and also of the present
policy of Secretary Sherman in contract
ing the volume of the currency below the
requirements of business, to which policy
he attributed the general stagnation of
trade and the paralysis of the interests of
labor throughout the country. We do not
attempt to give an outline of his remarks,
but simply con6ne ourselves to their gen.
eral tenor. His remedy for these evils
was to go back to the imitation of 1865,
substitute greenbacks or U. s. Treasury
notes for bank notes, abolish the banks,
and tax the bondholders. In this way he
thought the country might be brought
back to better days. At the close of his
remarks Mr.. Farver stepped forward and
thanked the audience for their attention,
and after announcing that full working
mems ticket would be put in the field aud
that the primary meetings would be held
ia all the districts Of the county on Satur-
day next, the 9th Of October, declared the
meeting adjourned. Nothing was said of
a convention, or Of the time and place of
meeting.

The Presidents Policy.

The talk among Radicals Of opposing
the Presidents southern policy win amount
to but little. The Democrats are bound
to sustain it, but even without their sup
port, it would be upheld by tho RepubH-
cans themselves, Except the radical wing
Of the party,) who thus condemn Grants
military interpositiOn in State affairs. His
civil service reform policy is more assail-
able, because it is already evident that
the President either will not or cannot
enforce it. 1t is defed by Cornell, in New
York, despised by the government clerks
in Washington, and by Federal Office
holders 10 various other places. Evident
", the civil service reform, so much vaunt-
ed, is to come to naught. Grant made a
great flourish Of trumpets over it, when he
first came into the Executive Office, and
Hayes followed suit but it was only
empty yaporing, after ALL Grant pro-
nounced it "humbug,' the other day, to
NJ y Herald interviewer in Europe.
But it is no humbug, except as Grant and
Hayes have made it so, by their signal
and wilful failure to enforce it. If Office
holders knew that their dismissal would
certainly follow the slightest violation Of
it, there would not be one who would not
respect it and order his conduct according.
ly. 1t is the yielding Of the Executive tc
party pressure and party requirements that
has made it "humbug." Mr.. Hayes i:
vulnerable on this point, and may justly
be assailed by his opponents, whether Of
his own party or Of the Democratic party
and there are those who viii not be slow
to avail themselves of this weak point il
his administration. An Executive, t.
succeed in matter Of this kind, should
be as inhexible as flint; then all difficulty
would Instantly vanish. But Hayes is
not man of that mould, and his Deepen.
dents have not been slow in finding it out
Contributions are being levied for party
purposes on Federal oficeholders, and Ohio
clerks are going home to vote, and their
pay will go on, present or absent, just as
the same kind of work was performed un.
der the Grant regime. No wonder Grant
pronOunces Hayes civil service reform a
"humbug."
