THE most magnificent regulator we have seen for sometime, is the new one just received from the mammoth manufactory of George A. Jones, New York, by Riddle. It is now on exhibtion there? and we advise all our readers to go and take a peep at the magnificent piece of mechanism by which the time of this city will henceforth be regulated.

MACK, late editor-in-chief of the Chicago Republican, now of the editorial staff of the Missouri Democrat, is in favor of giving the dressy and aristocratic Edward S.

CHANGE OF SECRETARY.—Our friend C. F. Betts of New York, who visited Terre Haute last summer, has been elected

Secretary of the Cincinnati &

Terre Haute Railroad, vice A. B. Quackenbush resigned. Both are men of fine business tact and rare integrity, and gentlemen whose acquaintance it is a pleasure to make. It has been frequently remarked that the gentlemen connected with this line are good fellows and business men from the ground up.

THE principal occupation of the masculine portion of the Terre Haute population last evening was the chasing of their tiles about the streets and back alleys. "Our reporter," after visiting Langford's, evers that he counted fortyseven young gentlemen, who have recently invested in two-story hats, chase the same not less than three blocks, fortysix of whom profaned audibly, the t'orty-ueventh beiug a member of the church in good standing, only thought awful cuss words.

The various devices resorted to by women to increase their personal charms are so numerous that it would require a volume to describe them with any degree of minuteness. They are not peculiar to the people of this age or country, but have been made use of by women of every country for centuries past. Some, however, have come to light of late years, and if not entirely original, they appear so to the majority of their devotees.

To beautify the complexion is one of the first desires of a young lady, and there are an innumerable variety of cosmetics in use for this purpose. VVomeu havfe

face and neck still they are not alto

g0ther harmless. The most dangerous

are those which contain sugar of lead and comnoundsof bismuth which are sold under a variety of fancy names by every druggist in the land. They cause spasms, contraction of the muscles, trembling of the hands and very often end in paralysis. Most cases of paralysis in which physicians have strived in vain to discover the causes owe their origin to these facial preparations which are so much in vogue, and the use of which can not be too severely condemned.

PAINTING THE FACE.

Painting the face is a very ancient custom, and has been in use among various nations from an early period. It was a

Arabians and the American Indians. At the present time the various parts of the face have to undergo a separate and distinct operation, for which different preparations are used. A pure white effect is produced by the application of "white powder" or "enamel" to the skin, which has previously received a coating of cold cream or some preparation of an unctu _1 .. may adhere. The whole covering eoon becomes dry and exhibits a smooth and compact surface, unless^ the requisite amount has not been adjusted properly, when an uneven and blotchy appearance is presented, which is easily detected and necessitates a second operation. The enameling process is practiced by nearly all the soi-disant French hair-dressers in this city, and the business is continually increasing. A color is given to the cheek by the application of rouge, or rose de clime, a curious preparation upon paper^ which if moistened with the tip of the finger deposits a rose-red coloring on it which must be rubbed on the cheek immediately. For the lips and nail3 the preparation rouge vinaigre is advantageously used. The eyebrows are rendered attractive by a little charcoal, burnt cork, or pomatum, which is put on by a little ivory or wood instrument resembling a pencil. To complete the process it is necessary to paint or pencil the veins to an air of transparency to the alabas-ter-like substance of the skin, and is done with a camel's hair brush and a little blue paint. A slight dash of powder enhances the beautiful effect, as any little imperfections will be apt to disappear.

BLACK PATCHES.

It is now considered fashionable to wear black patches on the cheek or lip, although the use of these is by no means modern. The fashion is supposed to hare come from Arabia, where, as in many other Eastern countries, a black mole was considered a beauty spot, and if nature failed to endow a person with one, she endeavored to imitate it by means of black silk and paste. They were introduced into England in the early part *of the seventeenth century, and were thought to be an essential toilet appendage as late as the war of the Revolution. The fashion was carried to a great excess, the patches being of every variety of shape and cut, such as stars, crescents, shields, dogs and horses, and were not only worn on the cheeks, buton the chin, forehead and neck.

Charles Lamb once said of a lady upon whom the ravages of time were making their marks, and who sought, by the aid of certain cosmetics and ro'ghes, to hide these defects, but merely covered her face, leaving the wrinkles in her neck visible, that^she looked like a statue—her face was modern, but her neck was antique.

FALSE HAIR.

Artificial or false hair has been worn by almost all the civilized nations for thousands of years. The Greeks, Romans, Persians and Assyrians appear to have been extremely partial to it, and to have worn it in various styles. The blonde hair of the Germans was held in high esteem by the Roman matrons, and the fashion of wearing this kind of hair was uuiversally prevalent. It is related of Queen Elizabeth that she wore an abundance of false red hair, but it is not stated whether this fashion was followed to any fereat extent. The custom of powdering the hair is also several centuries old, and originated in France. The fashion prevailed to some extent in our grandmothers' days, but fell into disuse at the beginning of the preseut century.

THE TEETH.

The ancients attached great importance to the teeth in giiyng an expression to the countenance,and when the natural ones were decayed or lost artificial teeth were inserted in their places. Solomon compares a fine set of teeth to a flock oi sheep even shorne and Jacob, when he blessed Judah, said, "his teeth shall be white with milk."

HOW EYES ARE "MADE.

Of late years & new branch of business has come into existence with a view of

CIBVCUKC,

view ui

to any particular cases. A person chose one as he would a pair of spectacles, and had it inserted. But great improvements have been made and they are brought down to such a degree of naturalness that a person would 'scarcely detect oue in use if the fact was not mentioned previously. Each eye is now modelled upon the particular bulb it js to cover, each individual case requiring a different model from any previously made. This scullcap, as it is called, is set accurately upon the bulb of the diseased eye, so that it moves as freely as the natural one. It needs great skill to insert oue properly, aud tbe business is in the hands of a very

few

cosmetics from the earliest

age, but this practice was never so generally observed as at the present day. All the cosmetics and paints applied to the skin are more or less injurious and stop up the pores of the flesh and also make the complexion sallow. Rouge, carmine and violet powder and carbonate of magnesia are all used to whiten the

opticians.

While speaking of the eye, a fact may be mentioned which may save some of the persons who try it much anxiety aud annoyance. There area number of persons in our city who make it a specialty to paint and naturalize "black eyes." They have become so adept in their calling that a disfigured eye can be

made

which contain sugar of lead

to appear all right in a very short time. They charge, however, rather high for their services, the price being from five to ten dollars. Nearly all the large apothecaries have men to do this work, and the number of customers, if known-,* would cause some surprise. Artificial ears and even noses are frequently met with on persons who have lost these indispensable members by accident or otherwise.

ARSENIC EATING.

A dangerous practice for beautifying the personal appearance is rapidly spreading among the fashionable women of this country, which, if not stopped, will be productive of the most alarming results. It is arsenic. The drug produces a most pleasing, fresh and healthful appearance, together with a certain degree of embonpoint. It is taken at the commencement in a very small dose, a fraction of a grain, and is continued for some length of time, when the quantity has to be increased until the desired effect is produced. After a person begius to use it there is no turning back, and the amount has to be continually increased, until it breaks down the constitution. Finally the point is reached where to continue it is death, to turn back is-death also there is no escape, no means to avert the dreadful fate which sooner or later meets the arsenic eater and a most horrible death from poisoning is the penalty which all have to pay who once begin to practice this temporary enjoyment.— IF. H. O. D. in New York Evening Mail.

CONGRESSIONAL.

SENATE.

Several petitions were presented. Mr. Cole presented a petition from Chinese dealers on the Pacific coast, for a reduction of the duty on rice.

Mr. Edmunds presented thirty-two petitions from Vermont for the repeal of the duty on salt.

Mr. Chandler, from the Committee on Commerce, reported withoutamendment a bill to promote the construction of the Cincinnati & Southern Railway, being a a bill introduced by Mr. Sherman last Mareh, authorizing Messrs. Greenwood, Bishop, Hooper Heidelback and Ferguson, as trustees, to construct and maintain a railroad between Cincinnati, Ohio, and Chattanooga, Tennessee.

At one o'clock Mr. Sumner's supplementary Civil Rights bill came up, and he addressed the Senate.

Mr. Vickers followed—he said he would not undertake to answer Mr. Sumner's speech on supplementary Civil Rights bill, because it required no argument to demonstrate the gross unconstitutionality of that measure. He then read a long argument in lavor of the pending General Amnesty bill.

At the conclusion of Mr. Vickers' speech the Senate went into Executive S®ssion, and soon after adjourned.

HOUSE.

In the House to-day, various bills were introduced. A bill, was introduced by Mr. Butler, of Massachusetts, for the removal of the legal political disabilities incurred during the late rebellion, provided that the act shall not enable any person to maintaiu a claim or right against the Government except the same occurred before the 11th of April, 1865. Also to repeal the several tenure of office acts.

By Mr. Smith—For the construction of a national railroad between New York and Chicago.

Mr. Dawes, of Massachusetts, asked leave to offer a resolution for the appointment of a select committee of five to inquire into the origin and character of the difficulties between the Governor and the officials of Louisiana and the United States officials in that State, and to report the same to the House, with such recommendations as it may deem expedient, the committee to have power to send for persons and papers, and to sit in Washington or elsewhere.

Mr. Kerr objected. Mr. Dawes moved to suspend the rules and adopt the resolution. Agreed to— yeas 114, nays 58.

Mr. Ackermau, of Pa.," asked leave to introduce a biil to remove alleged aud political disabilities and to grant general amnesty.

Mr. Dickey objected. Mr. Acker moved to suspend the rules and pass the bill. The House refused to suspeud the rules, and pass the bill. Yeas, 106 nays, 93—not two-thirds.

Mr. Dawes introduced a bill enacting that from and after its passage, all political disabilities incurred under and by virtue of the third section of the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution, are removed.

The rules were not suspended, and the bill was not passed. Yeas, 131 nays, 70 —less than two-thirds.

Another amnesty bill, being tbe oue passed by the House last session, aud now pending in the Senate, was introduced by Mr. Hale and passed. Yeas, 170 nays, 31. It is the same as was passed by the House last session, and excepts members of Congress and officers of the army aud navy who joined the rebellion.

Mr. Cox offered a resolution calling for unpublished correspondence relating to the release of W. G. Halpin, a Fenian prisoner. Adopted.

Mr. Kerr offered a resolution for a secret committee in regard to stationing United States troops in Cherokee county, Kansas. Referred to the Military Comml

PARIS,Jan.16.—The recent suggestions of Ponyer, Minister of Finance, regarding taxation on raw material, meets with opposition on all sides. The leading newspapers throughout the country devote much attention generally to condemn the measure.

The free trade manifestation is being held iu the south of France, and may probably influence a chauge of the Government's policy in the matter.

The street sale of Le Gauler and La Constitution is prohibited by the Government.

NEW YORK, Jan. 16.—A special cable dispatch to the New York World dated London, Jan. 15, says: It is reported that Sir Charles Mordaunt has taken steps to reopen at an early date his suit for a divorce from his wife, a daughter of Sir Thomas Moncraff. It is understood his Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, will be a co-respondent with Lady Mordaunt. The dispatch states also that another divorce case has been filed for trial, in which the Prince's brother, the Duke of Edinburgh,istheco-respondent.

Ira A. Payne, pigeon shooter, is preparing to commence suits on three different charges, against Henry Bergh, President of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, for interfering with him in his professional business. Paine has retained the best legal talent in the city, and many think that Bergh will have to pay heavily for his interference.

The case of A. Callender, bank examiner, charged with having accepted a bribe from* the Ocean Bank, was concluded before Commissioner Osborne yesterday. At the conclusion of the summing up the Commissioner adjourned the case until Wednesday, when his decision will be rendered.

NEW YORK, January 16.—Mr. Powers, proprietor of the Grand Central Hotel, denies the report published in the Associated Press papers yesterday, that he has charged $250 for expenses incurred on behalf of Fisk at the time he was shot. Iu discussing the matter with the agent of Fisk on last Friday, Powers inquired if that sum would be considered too much, but made no bill whatever. The gentleman promised to call on the following day and arrange the matter, but has not yet dene so. Powers says he has not yet determined on the amount, but will only charge what is right and proper.

The following is the Times' special from Washington, January 15.—No official action has yet been taken by the Government in regard to the case of the Florida. The owner seems to think that the Navy Department conducts the diplomatic affairs of this Government, and so he sends his communication to that department instead of the State Department.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.—In the Senate to-day Mr. Sumner presented a memorial asking reform in the national system of public schools.

WASHINGTON, January -16.—On Monday next, a'motion will be taken by the House on the Public Lands Committee, whereby the committee will make known the course they intend to pursue in relation to the public land grants.

The Committee of the Ways and Means meeting this morning discussed Boutwell's Syndicate operations and decided to report to the House his statement of transaction without any resolution. A majority of them consider Boutwell's explanation satisfactory.

A telegram was sent to New Orleans last night, from Atterney General Williams to Governor Warmoth, stating that the President does not feel justified in deciding the question at issue in that State. Under the existing circumstances he is unwilling to interfere in State matters with military power, except in case of an overwhelming necessity.

CHICAGO, January 16.—Tbe morning papers are filled with highly sensational accounts of the doings of the crowd of North Siders at the Common Council last night. The damage which they did is greatly exaggerated. The gathering was composed mostly of laborers, who are excited at the prospect that .the Council will prohibit them from erecting such cottages as they can on their North Side lots. They poured into the Council Chamber with the usual noise attending a great crowd, but with no indication of ill manner, and it was only after the Council had adjourned on account of the excitement, aud while one of their own men was speaking in the Conncil Chamber, that a few of the outside mob tossed stones through the windows. No one was hurt. The stone throwers were drank, and their action is loundy deuounced by all. Some of our prominent citizens will call upon the State Attorney to have a special Grand Jury to try the leaders of the crowd, and have them punished for riot.

Alderman Carnly, of the Sixteenth Ward, has been foremost in organizing, gathering and inflaming the German people, and he will be proceeded against forthwith, but tbe stories of the news-

papers which hate the GermtthS for their political action to the effect that their intentions were to kill the Aldermen, burn, the Cily Hall and all that, is pure fiction. There will be no more trouble, and tbe Council will doubtiess modify their ordinance so as to except a part of North Division rom the provisions of the fire limits ordinance.

CHICAGO, Jan. 16.—Judge Tree having yesterday decided against the plea of counsel for tbe indicted Aldermen, that the Grand Jury was not legally impan nelled, the trial of Aldermen will proceed to-day, and every trick known to the law will be used to delay the progress of the trial, and get the indicted released.

SPRINGFIELD, III., Jan. 16.—Reports relative to the military and ocupation of Chicago will be taken up to-night, and a lively discussion is expected. It is thought the Governor's course will be endorsed by a majority of the House.

JACKSON, MISS., Jan. 16.—The proceedings of both Houses of the Legislature yesterday were chiefly of local importance, and there is but little of inter est being transacted to-day.

In the Senate, a resolution was offered that the Senators and Representatives in Congress be instructed or requested to resist by all the means in their power, the further revolutionary measures on the part of the Government, having for their object the denial tcr the people of the Slates right of local self-government arid of the inestimable privilege of the writ of habeas corpus to the end that the liberties of the people shall be preserved and the republican form of government maintained, was referred to a committee with a prospect of considerable discussion when brought before the Senate again.

A resolution to adjourn on the 28th of February was also referred. A bill to provide for the funding of certain county warrants and to regulate the finances of several counties in the State, was made a special order for to-morrow. The bill itself is one of importance, looking to improving the condition of the State.

CINCINNATI, Jan. 16.—A Frankfort, Kentucky, special, to the Commercial, says: There was a Ku Klux raid on Bald Knob Saturday night, and several white people were ordered away and other persons kept out all night. •A petition signed by 150 person, was presented to the Legislature to-day by a citizen of this county, praying for the relief from the attacks of these outlaws, who are seeking to drive off the laborers from the farms. Many leading Democrats refuse to sign it.

CINCINNATI, Jan. 16.—Thomas Connolly was arrested yesterday for burglary, and was identified to-day as the murderer of Morrissey at Ester's Mills, Ohio, two years ago.

BOSTON, January 16.—At five o'clock this morning, the tobacco store of Bost & Brother, North Wells street, and the following buildings were destroyed by fire Sprading, Hoff & Mulholland's banking house Jas. Long, hardware and tinware Jas. Scbeher & Son, restaurant. Also, the residence of Mayor Ebner. The loss may reach $2-50,009. Insurance on buildings and stock $210,000.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 16.—The steamer America from Hokoma arrived with Charles Delong, American Minister to Japan.

An important embassy of Japanese Princes will soon visit America and Europe.,

CAIRO, January 16.—Four tenement houses, occupied by negroes, were burned last night. The fire was occasioned by the bursting of a kerosene lamp. Three children are missing and it is supposed they perished in the flames.

MEMPHIS, Jan. 16.—Arrived, Florence City, of Chester Emile, La Baye, St. Louis Mollie Ebert, Louisville Capital City, New Orleans. Departed, Lebarge and Mollie Ebert, New Orleans Capital City, St. Louis,. River stationary, and weather clear aud pleasant.

GERRIT SMITH is in his 75th year, and bis memory is so perfect that he can repeat most of the Psalms, and many other parts of the Bible. His domestic as well as public life has been of a felicitous nature, aiid the bride whom he wedded a half a century ago is the companion and help-mate of his latter days., Hi3 form is still erect, but his once raven locks are silvered, and those who see him now can form an imperfect idea of the great pillar of the anti-slavery cause as he appeared on the platform thirty years ago.

HAIR VIGOR.

HERS

A I I O

For the Renovation of the Hair!

The Great Desidferntnm of the Age A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or gray hair is soon restored to its original color and the gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, an.d baldness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands ftrophied or decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from falling oft and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a

HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts longer on the hair, giving it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume.
