PROF. WILSON'S LEcTURE.-Last Tuesday
evening City Hall was crowded, floor and gal
lery, to hear lecture from Prof. Wilson, of
Rochester, N. Y The Professor is fluent
speaker and addressed his large audience in
well-chosen language. Belonging to the Re-
formed School of Medicine, he came down on
the use of calomel in good set phrase, and
warned the people to beware of this deadly


poison. His reIharks to the boys were timely
and appropriate, telling they must not swear
nor smoke nor chew, nor to set up late, but to
rise early in the morning, obey their parents,
and behave well on all occasions. The young
men, too, came in for share of good advice.


He warned them against alcoholic stimulants
and the use of tobacco in every form. He spoke
to the ladies, and urged upon them the import
ance OF taking proper exercise, OF sleeping in
well ventilated rooms of standing up straight
and giving their lungs fair chance for the
circulation of air through them. He pounced
upon hair oil in every form, and told them to


use cold water on their hair. and avoid all
kinds of grease; and therein we think he was
about right. He told them also to keep their
teeth clean, and be sure and not leave any
victuals between them-excellent advice
Hair eoloring he considered dangerous. Su-
gar of lead, lac sulphur and other coloring
ingredients generally used are injurious to the
nervous system; and therein we think he was
right. His lecture was well received.


He gave notice at the close of his lecture
that his consulting physician, DR.. McCoombs,
| may be found at the United States Hotel dur
| ing this week and until next Tuesday, where
he may be consultedsfree Of charge.

LAGER BEER holds its own in the Massachu-
setts Legislature. The attempt N the Senate
to strike outthe amendment to the prohibitory
law which permits the sale of the German
beverage was defeated by four majority. The
supporters of the amendment hold that with
out clause exempting lager beer the law
cannot be enforced. But now arises the diff
GUILTY. The claims of lager having been recog-
nized and it having been duly declared an in
noxious beverage, those who prefer ale and
detest lager, come in with their amendment
saying with some reason that it seems unjust
to discriminate against ale drinkers as is now
proposed. The question Of adding ale to the
list of exempted beverages is still pending.
The door for lager being open the whole race
of fire water spirits crowd in.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Herald in narrating the clos.
ing business in the Senate says:


The nomination of J. s. Carlile was
next considered. Senator Boreman, of
West Virginia, made an earnest appeal
IN his behalf, and, besides informing
the Senate that it was the particular
desire of the President that he should
be confirmed, gave it as his opinion
that his confirmation would strengthen
the Republican party in West Virginia.


Boreman was right for once. He
wanted to get CARIILE oat Of the coun-
try knowing that his active co-opera.
tion would ruin any party and that the
only way to save the Republican party
of West Virginia was to rid it of the
CARLrLE connection. In that view OF
the case his confirmation would have
been source of strength,

A discussion is now going on in the
papers as 80 CARIILE'S status. Some
argue that by the reconsideration of the
vote confirming him, the Senate vir-
tually rejected him. Others hold that
he occupies precisely the same position
as Gen. SICKLES, whose appointment
was not acted on. We agree with these
last. Our information from Washing
ton on Saturday night leads us to be-
lieve that GRANT will make out CAR.
LILIES commission and send him off on
his mission to Sweden, as the amended
tenure of office bill permits him TO do.

The Point Pleasant Register (Radical)
is disgusted with the appointment OF
A. W. MANN, a brainiess incapable OF
Greenbrier county, to be Collector of
Internal Revenue for the Third District.
From the Registers article upon the sub
jsct we take the following specimen
sentences


We are friend to Mr.. Mann, and have
nothing to say to his personal detriment,
but we do not like him for this position,
nor do we like the manner in which tho
whole thing has been farmed out in Sc
curing him this appointment.


The appointment of Mr.. Mann to the
position above alluded to does not meet
with the appreciation of scarcely citi
zen in our district; on the contrary they
are opposed to the appointment.



AS to the appointment, we are salts
fed that our people would have rather
Colonel Obey had remained in office,
than that he should have been super
ceded by such a person as Mr.. Mann,
whom it is generally conceded is unit
for, aud does not possess the quaLltlca-
tions necessary to, such an office.


This is but mild sample of the gen.
e1al growing by the Radical press Of
the country with regard to GRANTS Sc
lcctions. Usually the distribution of
the spoils has not marred materially the
harmony of the party in power. Under
the present Administration, the case is
different. Plunder and place are the
chief elements of Radical strength, be-
cause they were the object of the work
ers in the organization. The utmost
discretion was necessary to make sat
isfactory and successful distribution.
Main strength and awkwardness have
controlled instead; the Radical party is
rent with dissensions and on the verge
of dissolution by reason of the unseemly
manner in which the spoils have been
distributed.

The other day the Georgia Legislature, in
sudden fit Of enthusiasm, voted to adopt the fif.
teenth amendment. But on Saturday last reso-
luton was introduced In the State Senate, and
sustained by nineteen yeas to fifteen nays, to
reconsider that vote, and the adoption or rejec-
tion Of the amendment was made the special
order for Tuesday next. No action was taken
on the reconsideration in the House. Il Ia
predicted that the amendment will pass both
houses this week by the votes Of the conserva-
tive republicans and democrats. The exe
tremists of both parties are bent on the same
purpose-rule or ruin-and the conservatives,
IL is hoped, will unite in voting for the adop-
ton, with q firm determination to uphold
Grant and Congress. The positive recon-
mendation which President Grant In his in
augnral bestowed on the fifteenth amendment
should certainly have great weight with the
Georgia legislators. On their decision will
largely depend the course Of policy to be fol-
lowed by President Grant and by Congress in
relation to Georgia and the other States Of the
late Southern Confederacy. If Georgia frank
ly accepts the situation and endorses the
amendment, II will hasten materially the ap-
preaching full restoration Of the Southern
States to the Union. All those States will at
length wheel into line and march steadily and
rapidly in the path Of progress to higher
prosperity than they have ever before attained.
