HlCriMONP. IND, JUNE 1, 1869. . ,V,THE QUORUM QUESTION. t ,Xn to day's paper, first page, we publish an .able document from the pes of SfiaatT r T needs, from us no approval, as It speaks for itself in ( laic ' English. The legal question, if indeed . there be any, which Democrats have raised, since their signal defeat, is handled in that clear, off hand manner char- " acterUtic with the Senator, and which thows that he is "master of tho situs-" tionV and eqnal to the emergency." ' ' Tree, many Republicans, who are not .'legal advisers" and who have read nothin g but garbled reports, or sensational t; articles, concerning the proceedings had on the occasion of the passage of the 'I Firteenth Amendment.have had conflicting opinions; but now, the whole thing id laid bare before the public, and it is hoped that every Republican paper in the State will give it publication not a synopsis, but a full report. After reading this argument few will fall to coincide with the Senator upon the legality of the passage of the Fifteenth Amendment all will concede the force of the argument, even the Dem- ' 'ocrats, who are ever determined not to i be S convinced of anything emanating from a Republican source. Thi3 then . sits at Test , all doubts and it can be , safely set down that Congress will accept the Ratification of the State of In diana,the "samo as any State in the Union. . The position the Democrats assume is this: that two-thirds of the members elected, or whose election is provided for by law are necessary to a quorum. But this Is not what the Constitution says!. It - declares that "two-thirds of each House shall constitute a quorum to do business." Discussing this question the Chicago -Tribune says: "Is if not plain that member who resigns is no longer a part of the House? Is not the very meaning and intent of his resignation that he shall cease to be part of the House, and shall thenceforth stand in the same position relative to the House as ny. citizen of the State who was never elected to the House. But if he is not part of the House, then he is ., no part of the body of which two-thirds are required to make a quorum. The "two thirds" is computed only upon the actual House, and that consists of members who have not resigned."

Reverdy Johnson's Last Say. Reverdy Johnson's mission has closed like his patron and namesake - he retires from office as graciously as the occasion will permit. Was ever man more completely snubbed as this same exs Minister he goes to England to open negotiations in reference to the settlement of the Alabama Claims he has a hearing England, in hot haste, follows up the advantage that she might get rid of a "bad job" the treaty is made and forwarded to the Congress of the United States and ONE man votes for ratifies tion while every other member of Congress votes "nay." In the meantime Johnson the First went to Tennessee into private life Grant and a new Administration came . into power, and saw no just cause" (but to the contrary) of conceding to England every advantage and involving the honor and integrity of this Government. Senator bumner makes a speech in Congress and ventilates the treaty and England "to boot." England receives the . speech and howls long and loud, and is still howling, and threatens to do wonders if we don't take it back. Johnson the Second is removed Motley- is appointed instead. He goes'with new and positive instructions, and o, Johnson, on the 14th ult., telegraphs to the Secretary of State his formal withdrawal from the office of Minis ter to England. He says his farewell reception by the Queen was extremely friendly. He winds op by saying: "This terminates mv mission, which has been conducted on my part with zeal and fidelity, and which has fulfilled to the letter the instructions of my Government, and which has ' aimed to pro tect the rights, preserve the honor, and promote tne interest ct my country.' But unfortunately for the old gentle man he miaesed his aim it was an Eng lish gun he was firing not an American gun. tr;: Good News for our German Friends. The recent proclamation by the Grand Duke of Oldenburg, relieving his former subjects who have immigrated to the United States, from the penalty exacted "by the laws of Germany for the non fulfillment of military service, will give to our German fellow-citizens who have hitherto been deterred by the action of these laws f rem visiting their father land, that security which they have so long desired. The treaties made by our .government with the different German rulers and States are of so effective a character as to entirely protect the lib erties, of our , naturalized citizens who may wish to take up a temporary resi . dene in any portion of those States. ; .& i. iA. ; I, , mm ' ' " '" lfra.

DECORATION DAT !

POSTPONED UNTIL JUNE 13th, 1869 RAIN FELL IN TORRENTS t Last Sunday the good citizens of Richmond assembled as was agreed at the Sanger Hall. The procession was formed and a line of march was taken tip for Maple Grove Cemetrj. The procession was mainly composed of buggies, carriages, and springwagoos the children occupying the wagons. . , Tbe length of the procession was orer a mi le , while ither aide of the street was crowded with footmen, not in procession. .The bead of tbe column bad just arrived at the Cemotry, when it began to rain; yet there was no baiting; but as the rain increased, and few had made preparation for such weather, it was out of tbe question to prooeed with the ceremonies. Rev. J. V. R. Miller delivered a short address, tbe most appropriate and eloquent we ever listened to. It seemed to us that the man of God was especially Inspired for the occasion. We are only sorry tha we are unable to furnish a report of the address. But four graves were strewn with flowers, when be rain began to fall in perfect torrents, making it impossible to proceed. For two hours the road and Main stieet were alive with flying horses and tiredout walkists, all well soaked. Notwithstanding it was a day in honor of the dead, there were many incidenls truly diverting. But of these we have nothing to say. That the good people remsmbere I tho fallen braves was evide'nt by the public display on the occasion. It was agreed, and so postponed, that on Sunday tbe 13th inst., the Graves should be Decorated as first intended. The same programme will be carried out; and it is confidently ezpecteJ that a greater turn out, if possibb, will be ou thatday than on last Sun day. . There are forty five female post-masters in the State of Texas. Frank Leslie, the publisher, was di vorced from his wife last week. Burlingame's two balls in Paris cost the Chinese Government $20,000. : Mason, of Mason & Slidell notoriety, has arrived at Baltimore, from Europe. It i3 believed that P. T. Barnum is worth about a million of dollars. Mr. Curtin leaves, on the 1 7th of June for the Russian mission. There has never been a collection of Itufus Choate's writings published, be cause no one could decipher the marks. Col Daniel Siglkb died at his resi dencc in Jcffersonville, on Sunday night last, paralysis. The gas-holder now being erected in this city by James M. Starr, will hold 70,000 cubic feet of gas. Grant sa3Ts ho will not remove Wilson Commissioner of the Land Office, or Mr. Capron, Commissioner of Agricul ture. Hon. B. F. Wade was to-day commis sioned a Director of the Union Pacific Railroad. He had an interview with the President this afternoon. A little girl named Gump, near Kendallsville, Indiana, fell into a swill barrel, near the house, last Thursday evening, while the family was at supper, and was drowned. Minor Voro. son of Isaac Vore. who resides about seven miles south-west of ; the city was struck by lightning Wednesday eve, while milking under a tree. The father was also severely Hurt by the stroke. Lafayette Courier, June 1st. We observe that many of our exchanges are announcing the passage of the amended divorce law by the last Legislature. Such is not the fact. For the benefit of infelicitous married cou ples, we make the correction that the law passed the senate but was defeated in the House. Fred. Douglass, Jr., colored, on ac count of his exclusion from the Printers' Union on account of his color, applied for and obtained a Clerkship in the Office of Recorder of Deeds in Washington yesterday. He served in a Massachusetts Regiment during tho" war. A correspondent of the Louisville (Ky.) Courier, has the following item in regard to Mrs. Nancy E. Clem : She is still firm in her declarations of innocence, and says she feels that she is only on a vitit to the prison. She expresses confidence that the Supreme Court will order a rehearing. She says she is the victim of a moneyed ring in Indianapolis, and that justice will be done herself and them at no distant day.' The 6lave Trade Courts. The President will soou, in obedience to a recent act of Congress, formally request Great Britain to put an end to that part of ther treaty of April 7, 1862, which requires mixed courts to be kept up at New York, Sierra Leone and Cape Town for the trial of persons engaged in the slave trade who may be brought before them. If Great Britain consents then the salaries of the United States judges and arbitrators connected with these mixed courts, amounting to $12 500 per annum, are to cease; but it has been intimated that the British Government is of the opinion that the courts should be kept up. As predicted three months ago, Caballero de Rodas will be the new Cap tain-General of Cuba. Gen. Dulce va cates his post equally on account of his own health and the extreme jeopardy of the Spanish cause. ' He makes room for one notorious as the butcher of the Re publicans in Spain, and whose appoint ment would signify that the conduct of the war in Cuba is about to assume a more relentless character than ever save as qualified by the indubitable sue cess of the Cubans. For this, human ity and democracy have greater reason to pray. Compensatory intelligence, however, reaches us from Peru. We are specially advised that the recogni tion of the Cubans as belligerents, and it is probable that Mexico and others of tbe Spanish American Kepuhucs will Evidently the cause of Free Cuba re ports progress.

THE INDIANS. Kansas Settlements Attacked. ———

ELLSWORTH, KANSAS, June 1.—Indians are making trouble in Kansas, on the extreme frontier of the settlement. A party of about twenty-five Cheyennes attacked a small, unprotected settlement on the Saline River, about forty miles from Saline and 160 west of Topeka, on Sunday evening. They came, toward evening, under the pretense of friendship, and massacred thirteen men, women and children. The women were ravished. The killed, so far as known, are the wife and four children of Thomas Alderice; one son, eleven years old, of William Hendricks; Andros Aleson and family, six in number, and the wife and son of Jno. K. Strange. The bodies were brutally mutilated. Some excitement prevails. Governor Harvey has called a batalion [sic] of troops into the field for six months, and is now at Salina. A company of citizens have gone up to Salina River, from Salina, to rescue some wounded men. Indians have been seen near Ellsworth, Harke, Wilson Station, and Fort Hays. Custer went out with a couple of companies yesterday. The Kansas Pacific Railroad runs as usual. Further depredations are not feared. The citizens are protecting themselves, and prompt measures are being adopted for defense. It is said that this is merely a roving band, as there is no evidence of any general attack. ———<>——— Bishop Simpson and Woman's Rights. Biahop Matthew Simpson, commits himself to suffrage for women in the following moderate, but not the less unequivocal style, in a letter addressed to Mr. Theodore Tilton, Editor of the Independent : tKJkry Dear Sir : Yours, inviting me to be present at the meeting in Brooklyn, in behalf ot woman's enfranchisement, was received on my return home. 1 find, however that it will be impossible forme to le" present, as ecclesiastical duties call me Wesl at that time. "Believing, as I do, that the ballot in the hands of women wou!d bo so used as to add strength 'to all our moral enterprises, and especially would be the mo3t successful agency to eradicate intemperance and city vices, I have long desired to see her invested with that power. In an ordinary political canvass I do not see that anything would be gained. The vote would simply be increased, without any probability of change ; but on all moral questions, and on questions affecting the right of women to engage in any honorable calling to gam a Iiveli hood, the ballot in her hands would be ' a powerful element. With high regards, yours truly, M. Simpson." Letter from a Displaced Assessor. The Commissioner of Internal Reve nue has received the following from an Assessor removed from office in Indiana: " , Ind, May 12, 1869 Sir : I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 6th instant, transmitting the letter of the President of the United States, suspending me from office. 'I regret his Excellency did not ex tend to me the delicate courtesy which Judge Reynolds, of Illinois, manifested when he pronounced the sentence of the law on a conviction for murder, by in quiring of the prisoner when it would be most agreeable to aim to be hung. You will, nevertheless, please convey to bis Excellency my grateful acknowl edgment for his autograph, which I have long desired to possess." At a rolling-mill in Atlanta, Georgia, last Thursday, Hiram McGill, a puddler, found a bomb-shell, which had not exploded, among the iron which he was throwing into the furnace. Tc remove the powder, he took it into a black smith shop adjoining, and, laying the shell on an anvil, told a colored smith named Muckle to hold it while he struck. At the first blow the shell exploded, tearing off both of Muckle's hands at the wrists, tearing his bowels out, and seriously injuring McGill and several others. Muckle died the same daj The Taxing Powsr op the Government is proved in the fact that the receipts from Internal Revenue in Washington on the 24th were larger than for several months, amounting to $1,600, 000. The revenues will be immensely increased for June. In the meantime business generally is greatly depressed. A curious physiological experiment has recently been made. A lew grain? of barley were place! before a hungry pigeon. While pecking at the barley, the brain of the pigeon was frozen by means of spray of ether. The bird being thus deprived of consciousness, ceased pecking and remained as if dead. The barley was then removed, and the ether spray having ceased, the brain was allowed to thaw. The bird soon return ed to life, and its first act was to renew the pecking for a time, although no food was before it. Senator Morton argues the Constitutionality of the ratification of the Fifteenth article at length in the Indiana polis Journal of yesterday. He pre sents the case with great ability, and we believe his opinion as to the inability of a factious minority to break up tbe Leg islature at will is entirely sound, and will be so recognized by the courts and bv the ultimate tribunal. We have rare ly seen a clearer or more convincing ar gument of a great Constitutional ques tion. Cin. Chronicle. The Progressive Lyceum Building on Broadway is steadily advancing toward completion. The orna mental work, above the entrance doors to tbe Hall on Broadway, is a specimen of excellent workmanship it is massive and presents a bold and handsome appearance. As the work progresses, anxious eyes are tnrnfd towards it to see what i" nxt.

Religion in Richmond. " A Richmond correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, over the signal ture of "L." gives the following notice of the religious revival now. progressing among the Friends in this city: "Friends' Meeting, on Fifth street, is nightly crowded to overflowing with a select . audience, anxiously.-: inquiring,, 'what shall we do to be saved.'. The very atmosphere of this congregation is redolent of heaven, as ..'one of their speakers observed a few evenings ago, and the conversions are truly remarkable. Here system and order reign. Charles F. Coffin takes the, chair at 8 o'clock p. m , reads a chapter from the lUble, a few minutes are devoted to sU lent or oral prayer, as the case may.be, when he informs the congregation that 'short concise statements will be heard from any person that desires to speak,' the young converts given precedence, and woe betide the old Soldier of the Cross, who extends his remarks beyond the allotted time, or digresses too far from the subject before meeting. On several occasions they have been re minded in terms more emphatic than polite, that time was precious and the meeting must not be diverted from the orignal purpose 'Winning souls to Christ Any person familiar with the peculiar manner of worship Indulged in by Friends, would be astonished to see the amount of excitement this outpouring

of God's holy spirit has caused in the membership. Night after night old and young meet for tho purpose of converting sinners, spend their time in prayer, singing hyms and other devotional exercises,that a few short years a;o would have been deemed impossible within the walls of a Friends' meeting house; but times are changed, and with them, customs once held sacred are fast loosing vitality, soon to be numbered with the dead. Their testimony ngainst a 'howling ministry' has faded out; dress and address have been reconstructed on a modern basis. . In the place of silent worship, we have the mourner's bench, singing of hymns, and the organization of class-meetings. All these innovations have been bless ed in a most remarkable manner, fully justifying those that are inaugurating them to persevere, and silencing all opposition from the more conservative el ement of the Society, least they should be 'found fighting against God.' A Mrs. Frame is probably the most remarkable outgrowth of this excitement yet developed. Tall, graceful and commanding in appearance, with a voice full of music, she can enchain and melt into tears an audience sooner than any person it has ever been my pleasure to hear. Originally a Methodist, she join ed the Society of Friends, because she conceived she had a mission to perform in the ministry that could be better accomplished in membership with that Society thau any other. ller success has been remarkable. Presbyterian and Methodist are now vying with each other for the privelege of having her services to preach to their different congregations. , The 'Hicksite' branch of the Society of Friends have escaped in a great measure the revolutionary spirit that has invaded and overcome our Orthodox brethren. It is true they have established a 'Sabbath School.' but so far they have kept unspotted from other innovations; still the seeds of revolution have been sown, and, to a close observs er, the 'coming event has cast its shadow before. Successful revolution is not treason, nor innovation, may l not say, and under the aphorism the leaven has entered, and in due corrse of time all will be changed." L. . A Brookvilie correspondent of the same paper, has the following interestincr sketch of the carlv life of George Holland, Esq, now Judge of the Criminal Court of this County. lie speaks in deserved commendation of an honest Lawyer, who cannot be otherwise than a just and upright Judge: "This gentleman, now a citizen of Richmond, Indiana, and who has been appointed judge cf the Criminal Court of Wayne County, to fill the vacancy made" by the death of Judge Nimrod Johnson, was born near this place, and raised in this town. Lo3ing-his father and mother when he was but a little boy he and his six or eight young brothers and sisters were brought upon the conn ty, and according to the lavs of those days they were all told out to the lowest bidder. Young George was bit off by one of the best men Franklin county ever held Robert John,H.3q. wuo was for many years Clerk of the Court. He took little George into his family as a - son, educated him and made him his as sistant in the office. The boy grew m statue, studied law, and became a man of honor, intelligence and high respectability, and the son-in-law of his pa, Iron lather. But few lawyers who have ever lived in the Whitewater Valley have maintained through life a better character than Judge Holland; modest and unas-. suming, he has never been a politician, never sought office, but has given him- ' self wholly to his profession. 1 am glad that Governor Baker has appointed him Judge, for the appoints ment was one fit to be made,and will add to the years of the Judge's life; for his close application to the business of his office has been telling upon his constU tutional health, and as he is only fifty five, he should yet have some twenty years more of useful service in him Our county- needs the services of such men, that law may be properly administered and justice duly meted out." Oass ExrLOsloN. At Cincinnati, on Monday the 24th alt., a Gasometer exploded a little after 12 o'clock. The concussion was so great, that doors were thrown open, windows jarred and bells rung. The gas went off like a flash of powder, sending a sheet ot flame high toward heaven. No other prop erty was injured about the premwes. On the top of one of the columns, sitting on the cap, naked, his skin bnrnt to a crisp, sat a man help less and beyond the reach of immediate aid. As soon as possible a ladder was raised, and aid obtain- ; ed by which he was assisted down from his perilous height. A few moments before the explosion about twenty-fire men were atwork,ard narrowly escaped- ' It is estimated that the loss will reach about S72 ooo. ; ; -: - - -' .,-.-;;' Napoleon has set the style of one but toned vest.

THE CENTER FOUND BY THE P. M. . ,-. (-Which is - Post-Master.") GREAT EXCITEMENT CAUSED. A Delegation Visits the "Distinguished." TU " VU Liffd",jemd & Preure"put on At People. Ham" or "Progressive Lyceum'' Building! In ah article in the last Radical, the P. M. opens up the question of location for the P. O., and contends that by actual survey, (whether by Howard or somebody else, deponent sayeth not,) the center of the population of the township is at the Ham corner. This article aroused the citizens of the East end, and a strong delegation was raised, who made a pilgrimage to our distinguished M. C, at Cenlreville, who is supposed to possess supreme authority over all such matters of public concernment. After prostrating themselves before his high mightiness, and imploring his interference with Brother Isaac, in order to induce him to take different action from that which he had contracted to do, and among other arguments, threatened to ''spot him" at the next election, and, thus keep him from going to Congress ! This threat operated like a charm, and in the twinkling of an eye he inclined his ear, and commanded them to be of good cheer, for he would help them in the only way possible for him to do un der the circumstances, by throwing off the pressure from himself on to the people of Richmond, by leaving the question of location to a vole of the People. Accordingly, he issued his ukase to Bro. Isaac, who gave in his adhesion, and the word now is "vote'' select the place your?elves, fellow-citizens, and thus "lift the veil" concealing the light of our distinguished M. C."s counten ance, and assume the pressure" of the responsiblity now burdening the Ajax like shoulders of that, "tough-in fibre" gentleman . . CATTLE STOLEN OWNER FOUND THIEF IS JAIL. Oa Wednesday of last week a man by the name of John Snyder sold, sev en head cf cattle to J. M. Paxson of our city at a price so low that it induced him to suspect they were stolen. He arranged to pay them at 2 o'clock p. m. In the meantime, Mr. P. instituted in quiries regarding Snyder, who had said that his home was near Eaton, Ohio. He soon ascertained that this was false, and Snyder snuffing danger in the breeze, left; but Mr. Paxson was too quick on the trigger for him, and, with the assistance of Major Lyle, the scamp was arrested, and is now at Centreville, in care of our friend Sheriff Ballenger, in default of 91000 bail. The cattle are the property of Joseph Jackson, near Centreville, Ind., and Mr. Paxson was the first to convey to him the knowledge of his missing stock, which were returned to him. . At the same time AlexCheesman had a fine horse stolen; and he fortunately recovered it, with the aid of printer's ink. The second honors of his class will be conferred on Chas.

Cleanli ness and health, is now waging an exterminating war with Filth and Sickness. .Accident. Our old friend J. B. rosey, we learn met with an accident a few days ago, that nearly proved fatal. A partition fell on him, and bruised him considerably, and had it not been for a bureau keeping off part of the weight from his body, it might have squeezed the breath out of him. He is doing well. Water-Curb. The Richmond Water Cure Establishment, that was damaged by fire some time ago, has been thoroughly repaired, and Dr. Pikr3ojt, form erly cf Indianapolis, has taken charge of that Institution. Those who are ac quainted with the Dr. tell us that 'Green Mount cannot iaii or being a success, under his skillful management.

IO-lmo. As a city, we may congratulate ourselves that we have a common council who bars the interest of tho city at heart. Representing all classes, from the professional man to the mechanic, no class legislation is expected nor more will there be. Already they have shown signs of a future administration worthy the confidence of the people who have selected them to guard their interest and promote the general welfare of our prosperous city. By the action of the Council anv city may advance, stand still or retro grade. Of the three position the first we wish the first we must have not too fat, but a regular straight forward go-a-head-a-tiveness that knows no balking. The city is well officered, and the clcseof their terms will, we think, be clowned with success. i WOMAN KILLED BY THE RAILROAD. Coroner's Inquest. In our Cambridge correspondence the death of Mrs. Phebe Gaud, by the cars running over her, is mentioned. By the politeness of our worthy Coroner John Roney, who held an inquest over her remains be gives us some further particulars and corrects the statement of oar correspondent that Mrs. G.'s bead was 'cut off. The evidence exculpates the engineer, and the verdict exhonorates him or any other person, connected with tbe train from blame. The scalp, of her head was nearly taken off lelt hanging by a small piece of skin, and her skull frctured one of her legs was nearly cut offi and her body was very badly bruised and mangled. Mrs. Gard was formerly from Butler county, Ohio, where her remains were taken for interment on this (Wednesday) morning. She was 76 years of age. The Quaker's Address to Lo. The Denver Tribune reports the inaugural address of the new broad brimmed Indian Agents as follows : "Lo 1 How good and pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity. Dearly beloved, the spirit bath moved the Great Spirit to appoint me steward for the children of the forrest. V erily, in former times there have been unjust stewards who were liars and tbe truth was not in them ; for they provided moth-eaten raiments, or as the vanity of human reason phraseth it shoddy. Yea a multitude of wicked devices have thine adversaries devised against thee, but let not the sun go down upon thy wrath. Friend Lo, I exhort thee to be clothed with the garments of peace and turn from tbe error of thy ways, and from the war path to the path wherein thou sbouldst go. Be not donble-minded in the inward man I beseech thee, bnt wax more and more steadfast in those covenants which thon hast covenanted when thou didst feel the rod of correction." . The fame of the celebrated Plantation Bitters has no parallel in the history of Medicine. The thousands upon thou sands of bottles that are made and sold daily is but proof positive of their won derful virtues. Thousands of Cirtificates can be produced showing the effi eacy and certainty of the cures which they effect, and the Medical Fraternity, usually so jealous of anything which causes persons to think and doctor for themselves, are compelled to acknowledge their wonderful virtues, and pre scribe them under other names. They are sold by all druggists. Magnolia "Watkk. Superior to the best imported German Cologne, and sold at half the price. The Ladoga (Indiana) Herald says: "There lives near Bi'lville, Hendricks county, a peculiar family three boys and three girls. The oldest girl is about twenty-four years, weighs about .two hundred pounds, is a very intelligent lady, but we noticed one peculiar feature not common among tbe fair sex she bad a heavy beard (minus the mustache), which is about two inches long and of auburn color. The beard on the chin of this lady is the heaviest. We did not perceive any on the throat, nothing but regular side and chin whis kers. We were informed that her beard has grown more rapidly during the past year. The next girl is seventeen years old. born blind, and is an idiot; the next is a girl, fourteen, boru blind. The three boys .ire all intelligent young men. The parent of this family i- one of the wealthiest ixenin Hendricks county." The New York Times calls attention to Senator Sumner's ''remarkable habit of receiving threatening letters immediately after he delivers'great speeches;' and, of course, he -always hands - them over promptly, to the newspapers for publication. In other days the South ernerj used to send him threatening let lers; then the rebels used to send them to him; then the Ku Klux used to send them to him; then the friends of Andy Johnson (during impeachment times) used to send them to him; and now, it seems, he is receiving them from the enraged Englishmen.' - A canny old Scotchman near Ottawa, keeps the Billing's Bridge toll gate for the Gloucester itoaa company, it seems a few days since His Excellency and Lady Young took a drive out in that di rection, and after passing through the toll gate were stopped by. the 'heigh's . and holloos' of the said gate keeper as be frantically rushed after the sleigh demanding his toll. Whereupon His Excellency explained to him that being Governor General he was not subject to charge. To which Sandy replied Ah! weel, it might sae, but I'll just take the toll this timo.'

The premature decay and turning of the air having so ranidly increase! with the present generation, it has brcome a matter of great speculation as to the cause, and theories are abundant in regard to it. Tbe instantaneous dyes.composed of lunar caustic; give anything bnt a natural appearance to the hair; dyeing it as cloth is dyed, furnishes bat s poor counterfeit of nature. IIEIMSTKEET'S . HAIR COLORING S RESTORATIVE IS NOT A DTE. " Its operation is not by any chmical effect. The result is pmdnced by remedial agenceies, as may be easily determined by the fact of its not coloring the sxin in the least,' and its baring no effect upon the color of healthf hair giving exact ly the color the hair possessed before turning grey. This composition is the result of many experiments made with tbe view of removing certain causes by tbe use of remedies. That it has been eminently successful the experience of the last thirteen years has fully demonstrated It bas been used by thousands of people and it never fails accomplishing what it is designed for. It may be nsed as free as water, and with as much safety. Composed of oil and stimul ting spirit.it furnishes an agreeable article for the toilette, requiring no other dressing to accompany its use. - Soon after application is thoroughly commsneed, the small glands at the roots of the hair grow dark; the secretion of coloring matter may be observed at the roots of tbe hair, followed in a tew days oy tne turning of the hair, which thus progresses until the desired change is produced, and the hair possesses the natural color and growth of youth. Tbe Restorative is sold by tbe principal Druggists throughout the World,' at Fifty cents and One dollar per bottle. Ask for Heimstreet's Hair coloring and take no other. JOHN F.
