FROM J. A. TYNEs, A WELL KNOWN
CITIZEN OF WILSON, N, C,-My wife had
suffered for ten or twelve years with a

covered with dandruff, and caused her
hair to fall out and get very thin and
turned grey, but after using London

cured and the grey hair restored to its
natural color, the hair stopped falling
out and is growing beautifully. BY

From our Regular Correspondent

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Jan. 81, lstS'
The way in which the cipher dispatches
were conveyed to the New York Tribune ,
is no longer a mystery. 1t was disclosed
on Tuesday, by the testimony of Second
Assistant Postmaster General Brady, that
he received the package of dispatches
which Bullock, while messenger of Sena-
tor Morton's committee, took from the
committee room, and that he gave them to
Vim. E. Chandler, who left some on Gen.
Buffers table, and forwarded copies Of
others to MIR. Whitelaw.. Reid, editor of the
Tribune. Mr.. Brady's aud Mr.. Chambers
testimony show that all of the 10000 dis
patches were in the committee room of
Senator Morton for several weeks, open to
the inspection of almost any one who
might call. Mr.. Tilden will appear and
testify that he was not personally privy to
the cipher dispatches.
In the early part of the week the atten-
ton of quad RuncS was about equally diVi-
ded between the Potter cipher committee
aud the senate, when it was expected that
the great Conkliug versus Hayes case,
concerning the New York appointments,
would be debated and settled in open ses-
sior. The general impression now, is,
thai the Secretary of the Treasury has
been very completely answered by General
Arthur, and 10 reply Of Secretary Sher-
man to the answers of Arthur and Cor
nell has as yet been received. Yesterday
little after two o'clock, the senate went
into executive session to take up and dis
pose OF the New York custom house nom
nations, but, when the doors were opened
it was learned that the business had been
deferred until Friday, at p. NJ, in order
that Secretary Sherman may have an
opportunity to fill his reply.
The new Chinese minister has taken q
keen interest in the bill that has just

The Honorable NJ. L. JossIyn, State Sen
atOr from the Eighth District of Illinois,
give him the benefit Of his title and home,
introduced a bill in the Senate Of this
State last Saturday of which we present
part:
That in behalf of the people of the
state OF Illinois we tender to those sena-
tors aud representatives 10 congress, by
whose votes and support the new pension
bill was enacted into a law, our thanks and
the gratitude of thousands of Illinois disa-
bled soldiers whose future lives will be
rendered more endurabe by the kind pro-
vision made for them"
We have nothing to say against the
lves OF the disabled soldiers being made
more eudurable to them, but we would like
TO know from where the money is to come.
A bill was introduced in lower house of
Congress yesterday, by Augustus w.
Cutler, Representative from the fifth dis
trict of New Jersey, appropriating ONE
HUNDRED MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
to pay arreaIages Of pensions.
The report of the Secretary OF the
Treasury exhibits

From this deficiency, by some cabelistic
scheme OF arithmetical finance, it is pro-
posed to appropriate one hundred millions
OF dollars to pay. ,arrearages of pensions.
We may be pardone6 reasonable degree
OF curiosity as to how congress proposes to
do this, and shall watch with ARGUS eyes
the process.

Answers.

Some time ago we ventule ed to ask
one or two questions, expecting there
by TO get tic views of the teuchors, SO
as TO create a lively and withal sen.
:sblc discussion. But has any one
answered? 1t may Je you wrote youl
answers but forgot to send them.
.Ah ! that word "forgot," how familiar
it sounds to your ears. There are
but TWO reasons we can assign for
.youpnegleet, and they are: j. Asquare
trcfusal, orsignorahce. Does the shoe
lit? Don't all speak at once.
In our attempt TO answer the qucs-
;ions, we hope no one will think for
momcnt that we presume TO be infalli.
InIe. We only speak What we believe,
aud our saying that this is correct
or that incorrect, does not make it SO.
.Wc hope you understand us then not
as critic, but an humble seeker after
knowledge. Dear with us then while
y.Me present our opinion on the qucs
tions asked.
We think the verb "arc," as used
in the sentence, ':sscven times five arc

'isiohs, ! is incprrcct,' aid Alere arc oar
reasons: We say seven times five is

Suppose we say, seven times one are

the subject Of the verb, when really
it is ''onc," and according TO some

Tive Of number. Again, try, "twicc
Two are four" Incorrect, for the
word "two" is used as singular
noun, Tic name Of i number. We

not particularly our own, but have

it be incorrect To make "scvcn times

will be singular. In either case, i'll
