Hair Vigor,

FOR RESTORING GRAY h'AIR TO ITS NATURAL VITALITY AND COLOR.

IT is a most agreeable dressing, which is at once harmless and effectual, for preserving the hair. It restores, with the gloss anil freshness'of youth, faded or gray, light, ami red hair, to a rich brown, or deep black, as may be desired. By its use thin hair is thickcned, and baldness often though not always cured. It checks falling of the hair immediately, and causes a new growth in all cases where the glands are not decayed while to brasliy, weak, or otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitality and strength, and renders it pliable.

The VIGOR cleanses the scalp, cures and prevents the formation of dandruff and, !y its cooling, stimulating, and soothing properties, it heals most if not nil of the humors and diseases peculiar to tke scalp, keeping it cool, clean, and soft, under which conditions diseases of the scalp and hair are impossible.

As a Dressing for Ladies' Hair The VlGon is incomparable. It is colorless, contains neither oil nor dye, and will not soil white cambric. It imparts an agreeable and lasting perfume, and as an article for the toilet it is economical and unsurpassed in its excellence.

John E. Lamb didn't attend the great Sullivan convention. John is no hog. He knows when he has enough.

Considering that Sullivan generally rolls up some 1,1.00 Democratic majority, the Yigo tail seems to wag the Democratic clog.

The Washington lobbyists are going about with deep crape on their hats. The Senate has murdered the Henneuin canal scheme.

Memphis is so excited over tne eilow Jack that she wants the National Board of Health kept up. This will keep up the Yellow Jack first rate.

Arabi sent out out his Chief of Stair yesterday to borrow a large white handkerchief, which was proudly Haunted in the face of the foe. The old guard seems to surrender, but never dies.

The closing of the Suez Canal by English orders is now the next point in the controversy. Certain contracts are in existence on this subject and France will soon have an open highway or know the reason.

The Gazette has seen Mr. Davis, and he ventures to remark that the Sulli van arrangement was perfectly amicable and satisfactory. Before this case goes to the jury we move that Brother Shelton be called to the stand.

In should be remembered that there has yet been no declaration of war against Egypt on the part, of Great Britain. This firing on Alexandria has merely been done as a little act of discipline to bring a few bad boys to terms.

What Is hurting the Terrc Haute Ledger, the organ of the Vigo county Democracy? It has never yet mentioned the name of the candidate nominated far Congress at the Rockville Convention, on the 28th of last month. The Ledger must not be fond of Lamb chops.—[Hoosier State.

Well, no. And while this question is up, it may as well be said that the Ledger and Gazette are livingentirely, now-a-days, on crow. It is boiled and eaten straight, without sauce.

The bouquet that Mrs. Scoville sent Guiteau on the day of his execution has been analyzed and found to contain arsenic enough to kill a dozen men. We herewith apologize and take Mrs. S. out of the category of cranks. Instead of having his neck stretched, the sister wanted Charles to be carried to the skies on ''flowery beds of ease." Her cunning was as good as her pluck, but there may be doubts whether the cowan]!}- craven would have been bold enough to prefer arsenic to figuring in a grand scene.

Jennings, of London, writes that Irish independence is discussed as one of the probapilities of the near future, and quotes The Spectator as saying that, with Great Britain never stronger than she is now, and Ireland neve}1 in reality weaker, "the probability of Ireland breaking away never seemed so great." Actual independence of

POLLUTING THE COURTS.

Ameridan people ire peculiar and have a peculiar way of keeping the palladium of our liberties above the defilement of partisan and political mud. It has come to be regarded as allowable, if not unavoidable, for a professional politician to indmlge largely in trickery, to "set things up" at the sacrifice of personal friendship, to choke down the promptings of gratitude and cut himself loose from anteelection ^pledges when he gets into power. He can be smart in all these practices, and make the welkin ring with the bellowings of partisan malice, and a patient community will tolerate him because its a part of his trade. But the moment he attempts to pollute the Temple of Justice with his barbarian war dance, and spatter his political mud over the ermine of the Blind Goddess, a decent people will rise up in their indignation and drive the designing miscreants from the spot they are trying to pollute. The country is touched on the raw whenever a mob of political buccaneers endeavor to degrade Justice to the level of their petty schemes, and make the ermine figure in their plans of ambition. Tweed tried it in New York and was smothered beneath popular wrath, and destruction will overcome any party that converts the courts into channels of political filth.

The organization of this country would go to pieces in a week if the people should lose confidence—not alone in the integrity of the Bench, but in the purity of the method? that create the Bench. The two must flourish together. The selection of a Judge must be made by the rules of decency and his election secured by methods that are incorrupt.

Does the country propose to endorse Jay Gould when he buys a Judge to dismiss an injunction that conflicts with his greedy schemes Or Tweed when he puts up a Judicial dummy to to co-operate in his frauds? Does Indiana propose to countenance the disgraceful circus at Sullivan, managed by a parcel of political place men and henchmen, backed by shoulder hitters in their clownish parody on a judicial convention, and in prostituting the organization of our courts to abase political trade

Some things are apparently hard to accomplish in this world. For instance you can't easily drag a camel through the eye of a needle, and you can't always depend on. hatching a swan from a goose egg but either of these is easier than to produce respectable judges and a decent organization of courts out of the hoodlum elements that make-up a Donnybrook Fair. The stream can't rise above its source. The administration of justice is likely to be as high or as low as the fountain from which it springs. Let the Sullivan methods of finding a- judge prevail, and in a short time we shall have the occupant of the Bench battering the drawing a derringer on the lawyer who appeals from his tyranny.

In the Gazette account it is repressnted that when the two chairmen got well under way in the work of calling the Democratic Judicial convention at Sullivan to order, "then the fun did begin." AVliat fun? Was it when the whooping and hollowing was going on? or when one delegate told another to "go to hell or when a fight was about to begin or when the bad passions of the delegates were at their hottest heat Tfif All this may have been fun to the party who came out on top—that is, to the strong faction that, at last, got its enemy down, with his feet upon his throat—but not so to the people at large, of any party. .Esops fable of "theboy and the frogs" illustrates the lesson taught by such proceedings. It was fun for the boys who threw stones at the frogs, but death to the frogs.

It is always a pleasure to call attention to the fine qualities Qi a political adversary. While a portion of the great unwashed were hurling liar and other powerful epithets at one another in the prize ring at Sullivan, its esti mable candidate for Congress, in the quiet of his native town, was storing his mind with the rich political records of his country. Only twicc did raise his eyes from the book. This was when he passed several hours at checkers, and, again, in the cool of the evening, when he might have been seen bowling serenely through the shaded streets in an equipage befitting his rank. We understand that Mr, Lamb declined to receive any intelli gence from Sullivan during the day This is proper.

^t is conceding too much to call th body of men who met at Sullivan to nominate a Judge, a convention. does not appear that any organization was made, any presiding officer agreed upon, or any secretary to record the proceedings. It was a inob of angry and factious delegates, who spent their time threatening and cursing each other who finally patched up a bargain by which they agreed to trade away a couple of public offices, and then adjourned without any deliberate and peaceful action. It did not represent the Democratic party. The members only represented themselves. And, consequently their action *ia binding upon nobody but themselves,

Lew Wallace is attracting wide notice as the Keeperof the Great Pad-lock on the conscience of the unutterable Turk. Says the Post-Dispatch:

Mr. Wallace might get his name In tho Associated Press dispatches, whan all other expedients fail, by carefully falling out of a caique in the Golden Horn.

Karl Hoffman, who has Just died in Vienna, was a remarkable man, and had a notable history. At the time of bis death he was editor of the Xrtic Wiener Tur/i'blatt.

In his nineteenth year, while a student, he wrote a revolutionary poem, and for this was sentenced by a court martial to five years' imprisonment with hard labor.

A Thousand Tons of Bock Tumble Thundering from a Nevada drag. Homer (Nev.) Index.

About 11 o'clock Thursday morning the whole town was startled by a terrific roar and a jar like an earthquake, which sent people flying out of their houses in all directions. A glance up the side of Mount Olson revealed the cause of the phenomenon. One of the sharp peaks of foliated granit near the summit, loosened by the late rains, had toppled over and was rushing down a steep ravine directly toward the centre of the town with appalling force, crushing and grinding everything in its pathway. For a few moments itlookeu as though several houses ere doomed to inevitable destruction, but fortunately the slide scattered and was checked in the talus at the foot of the cliffs, causing it to stop short of any of the buildings. One immense bowlder, weighing not less than fifty tons, came down with fearful velocity, striking the rock bench above town and breaking it in a thousand fragments, which stopped on the ,flat a few rods from the China houses on Clarke street. During the progress of the slide everybody was stricken with consternation, and many people sought safety in wild flight. One enterprising saloonkeeper struck out down the canon on pressing business, making such haste that he skipped the bends of the road, taking the arms of the lake at a jump.

The editor of the Index went out to try and catch a delinquent subscriber on the fly. One lady gave a screech and locked her door to keep the slide out, while another ran across the street and climbed a plank fence for security. The card-players in Jack Murray's saloon left without waiting for their drinks or counting the game, and struck for the head of the canon at a 2:20 gait. Altogether, the excitement ran as high for a few minutes as it did in the proudest days of the snow-slides last winter, ft is estimated that at least 1,500 to 2,000 tonsof rock came down in the slide.

Forrest and the Son of Marco Bozzaris. "Who would have thought," said Forrest, "such a chap as Halleck could have written 'Marco Bozzaris,' a poem that fires my blood whenever I recite these lines 'Strike! till the last armed foe expires!

"A"nd strangely enough," he continued, "I met the son of Marco Bozzaris while I was in Greece. He seemed to me a traditional personage but to meet his son gave him a reality which I have never since lost." "What kind of a man was young ftojyiflris?" I inquired.

The great explorer of Central Asia, Adolphus Sehiagintweit, calls the highland of Pamir, in the Himalava Mountains, "the roof of the world*." From his description, the name is ap propriate. On the road from Pun jaub to Arkaiul, four passes have to be crossed that are 17,-500 feet, and for a distance of 280 miles tho haltingground is not below the height of Pike Peak. In spring, the echos of the avalanches are like the boom of continuous thunder, and in mid-win-ter, when the storm-wind sweeps the table-land, pillars of snow whirl and scud along the ridges, dancing together like spectres, in fluttering windings.
