It makes the hair moiet, nnd glossiT, and is unsurpassed-as a HAIR DRESSING. It is the cheapest preparation ever offered to the public, as one bottle will accomplish more and last longer than threo bottles of any other preparation.
It is reeemmendrd*nd used by the Firs Medical Authority. The wonderful results produced by our Sicilian Hair Kenowef have induced many to manufacture preparations for the Hail under various names and, in order to induce tho trade »nd the public ^o purchase their compounds, they have resorted to falsehood, by claiming they were former partners, or haft some connection with our Mr. Hall, and their preparation was similar to ours.

THK postponement of the trial of Jefferson Davis, ia still the subject of excited discussion among aeertain class of newspapers in the country. However, there need be no excitement about the matter at all. The whole tbing, from the beginning up to this timo, has been a farce.— Tlie manner in which the proceedings for the trial of tbe greatest traitor of his country have been condueted, lias been nnything but creditable te the judiciary. Hitherto the people havo been aecustomed to repose confidenoe in the Judicial Department of the Government. They have formerly, at least, looked to the Federal Courts as the unswerving arbi ters of justice, no matter w.bat might be the cause, or who were the parties thereto. But the aotion of the Courts since Mr. Davis was Art imprisonod, or rather their failure to aot has reflected discredit upon them, to say the least of it. When .» Federal Court becomes tribunal in which the tactics of political parties are exhibited rather than ono for tte enforcement of the law, then indeed does it beeome offensive to the people, and a public disgraee. The postponement of the trial of Davi3 was without the shadow of an excuse. If it wus intended to try him at all, his trial should have occurred months ago. There was no difficulty in obtaining an indictment against him for the erime of treason there was no difficulty in empaneling a jury for his trial neither has there been difficulty in procuring the evidence necessary for his conviction. Everything necesaary in fact, for the trial of the "illustrious State prisoner," as Mr. Voorheea would say, has not boen wanting, but tbo Courts in duty b»und to try the case havo been performing a pettifogging, farcical action which ba9 been both disgusting and shameful.
Davis should have been tried, when indicted, and tho judicial dignity of the country sustained. The responsibility of his pardon would then have been with Mr. Johnson. We have held hithorto, however, and do now hold, that as it was palpable from the start that the ex-Presi-dent ot the defunct Confederacy would never, even if couvicted, be punished for the crime of treasou, that he should be set at liborly for the remainder of his lite. Why try a criminal when tt is not proposed to punish bim if oonviated It but consumes the time of a oourt,when its time should be occupied to better advantage. Tho prcpdent which would be thus established by the conviction of tbo traitor would profit no body. The law defining treason ia well understood by most intelligent men, hence there would be nothing gained by establishing a precedent on some point, which could result in nothing new or important. The wholo proceedings, as they have been developed thus far, indicate to us that the bat way to try Jefferson Davis, and get rid of an unprofitable task, is to dispense with bim forever by granting bim a pardon. -His carcass is not worth "fighting over by a pack of hungry wolves. Besides altnost all tbe other leading ex-rebels have been pardoned. Why make an example of one, and allow all the rest of them to gb free? There are other traitors as mean as Jefferson Davis, but who have received pardons and are now safe from indict" ment and process of law. Had ten or twenty of the active leaders in the rebellion, been tried on surrender by a court martial, and bung on conviction, it surely would have been a good thtng for tbe country. But it is too late now to conEider suoh a thing, and ttye best way, in our judgment, to dispose of the laat captive, is to issue his pardon and send bim forth to public contempt, marked with the brand of treason/ which he will wear forever.
ea-post facta,
i- /^Mpeachment.
The matter of impeachment is still ono of public discussion it is also one which threatens to consume much of the attention of Congress for some timo to coiuo.-r" If it were practicable and judicious at all hitherto, it certainly not so now. The country, in our judgment, demands the attention and labors of Congress in another direction. The financial polioy of the Qevernment must be determined upon and settled. Whether the present policy shall prevail, or whether a modified one shall be established for tho future is something which Congress cannot neglect without great dotrimont to the public interest, and without bringing upon itself the odium of the country. The questions of taxation, internal revenue, and other minor matters of high public concern, are certainly enough to ongage the attention of that body, without indulging in an effort to impoach the President, unless, indeed he had committed higher crimes and greater misdemeanors, than it seems 30 far, he has committed during tba term he has occupied the position of Chief Magistrate of the nation. A majority of the Judiciary Committee aro in favor of impeaching Mr. Jobusbn. "'Pp"
Some of the members, however, are totally opposed to the scheroo, if such we may call it. For example, Mr. Wilson, of Iowa, the Chairman ot the Com mittoe, and among the ablest members of the House of Representatives, is decided in his opinion that the evidence adduced thus far does not warrant such an arraignment of tho President, and most assuredly, this opinion, is but an endorsement
oi
public sentiment on the
aubjoct involved.* Wood bridge, a good, and an unflinching Republican, and also Messrs. Marshall- and Eldrige entertain the same opinion. Next week the House will consider the reports, and we may expect a lively discussion thereon, with but little profit to the public interests generally. Congress, however, owes something to itself in the perfomance of its duty in this respect as well as to tho country. Mr. Kelsey has introduced a bill declaring the effect of an impeachment, and defining the meaning of the words "high crimes and misdemeanors" as used in the power of impeachment. This bill may be viewed, either as a partisan expedient to meet an exigehcy, or general law to bear on the case of Andrew Johnson or' as provisions, the necessity of which has been suggested by the supposed difficulties attending the impeachment of the present President, but which ire designed for use only on another and future occasion. If they aro intended to bear on tho case of President Johnson, they must be considered, we think, ai clearly
antl as such will of
fend the moral sense of tho people, as well as the legal sense of lawyers and urists. It is hot merely a- new remedy for a grievance that existed before, or a new mode of applving a remedy that existed before, that Mr. Kelsey's bill is intended to supply. It establishes a new mode of prosecution, which is neither a trial before the Senate nor on impeachment by theHouso, tut which results iA a joint resolution of both Houses, a mode of prosecution wholly unknown to the Constitution, and therefore void. It establishes a new sentence, which is neither one of guilty, nor of innocont, or of any particular crime, but is simply a sentence that the officer be suspended. It would be an anomaly in jurisprudence to allow a tribunal to suspend an officer whom it had -not first pronounced to be guilty of a crime. It is not certain, indeed, tliat tho act defining impeachable offenses does, not create into crimes, for the first time, the acts which it aims to punish. For if the acts which it declares,to bo criminal, aro already criminalj then' they are made so by tho operation of Mr. Kelsoy's. bill as reported by the Eastern papers.
It is hardly proper to do Kelsey the in justice to suppose that ho desire?,Congress to pass a general' iaw for Mr." Johnson's special punishment, which will at once make criminal acts which, whon committed, were not so, try the charge for these criminalized aqts before a tribunal which, when they weie committed, had no existence, authorise puni?bmeut in advance of any verdict of guilt, and 'pro-, vide a sentence which at the time.,of the commiBsioh of the acts sought to ba pun. ished, was wholly unknown in the 'history of jurisprudence either in this •country or England. Such an act, if attempted to bo applied to the case of President Johnsort, would be so clearly «v post facto and unconstitutional that it woufd.be.safe to assume that Mr. Kolsey'g bill is designen for a general act for use in future similar castas. While it is difficult to see.the fitness of this bill as reported, to meet all the emergencies demanded in a general law, it must be conceded that tome law should be passed defining at what period the powor to arrest attaches in impeachment cases, and what tribunal may exercise it. But at the same time, we believe' Congress should let the impeachment subject drop io far as ah aolual arraignment of the President is concerned, and address, itself to tbe consideration of subjeots of higher moment to the whole country.— Tho term of Mr. Johnson Is fast wearing out, and he is already so hampered by Congressional enaatmants, that, v?ero he so inclined, he could not inflioC any serious wrong upon the country.

THK "dignity of labor" is a principle which must be thoroughly accepted by the S#uth before it «an hope to recover its lost prosperity. So long as aa employer looks on his workman as a little "better than a brute beast, and cares less for him than his live stock, he must expect to fail in his attempts to make use of free labor.

IMPEACHMENT.
Report of (bo Judiciary Committee— A Majority for tbe Measure—Majority Keport.
The charge made, and towhich the investigation of tho committee has been especIH.11 directed, are usurpation of power and violation of law,' in the corrupt abuse of the appointing, pardoning and veto pow ers, in the corrupt interference in olecttions, and generally in the commission of acts, amounting to high crimes and misdemeanors under tbe Censtitntion, and upon the recital it was charged with tho more general duty of inquiry into the offical conduct of the President of the United States, and of reporting whether he had been guilty of any acts, which were designed or calculated to overthrow, subvert or corrupt the Government of tho United States, or which in contemplation of the Constitution would constitute a highcrime or misdemeanor, requiring the interposition of the Constitutional power of the House. It will be observed that the great salient point of accusation, standing out on tie foreground and challenging the attontion of the country, is the usurpation of power, which involves, of coune, a violaton of law, and here it may be remarked that perhaps every great abuse, every flagrant departure from the well settled principles of the Government have been broght home to its present administration, whether discovering itself ia a special infraction of the statutes or in tho profligate use of the high powers conferred by the Constitution on the President, or revealing itself here manifestly in the systematic attempt to seize upon its authority, and disparago and supersede the great Council to which that sovereignty has been intrusted, in refcrenco to the one great purpose of the reconstruction of the shattered Governments the rebel States, in accordance with his own wishes, in the interest of tho great criminals who carried them into the rebellion, and in such a way aa to deprive tho people of the loy« al States of all chances of indemnity for the past and security for the future, by pardoning their officers and restoring their lands, and bringing them back to their hoarths, unrepentant, and their hands yet red with the blood of our people, into a condition where they could once more embarrass and defy, if not absolutely rule tbe Government, which thoy had vainly endeavored!to destroy. It is around this point, and as auxiliary to that great central ides, that all the special acts ofmal-admlnistration we have witnessed will be found to gravitate and re* volve, and it is to this point, therefore, as tho,'great master key which unlocks and interprets all of them that the attention of tho House will first be directed.
The report then goes into a recital of events since tho inauguration of President Johnson, and concludes as follows: In accordance, with the testimony herewith submitted and the view of the law herein presented, the Committee are of opinion that Andrew Johnson, President of tbe United States, is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors, requiring the interposition of the constitutional powers of this House. In that upon the final surrender of tbe rebel armies and the overthrow of the rebel Government, the said Andrew Johnson, President of tho United States, neglected to convene tbo Congress of tho United States, that by its aid and authority legal .and constitutional measures might have boen adopted for the organization of loyal and constitutional Governments in the States there recently in rebellion.
In that his proclamation to the people of North Carolina, of the 29th day of May, 1S65, he assumed that he had authority to docide whether the Government of North Carolina, and whether any other government that might be set up therein, was Eepublican in form, and that in his office df President it was his duty and within his power to guarantee to said people a Republican fomof Government, contrary to the Constitution, which provides that the United States shall guaranteo to every State in this Union a Republican form of Government, contrary, also, to a deliberate opinion of tbo Supremo Court, which declares that Cougress is vested exclusively with the power to decide whether the government of a Stato is Republican or not.
In that, he did therefore rccogniza and treat,a plan of government set up in North Carolina, under and in conformity to his own advice and direction, as repubputyljcan in form, and entirely restored to its functions as a State, notwithstanding Congress is the branch of Government in which by the Constitution such power is oxelusively vested, and notwithstanding Congress did refuse to recognizeauch government as a legitimate government or as a government Republican in form.
In'that by a public proclamation, and otherwise, he did, in the year 1665, invite, solicit and convene in certain other States, then in recent rebellion, conventions of persons who were known traitors who had been organized in an attempt to overthrow tho Government of the United States, and urged and directed such convention to fran:e constitutions for such Stites.
In that he thereupon assumed to accept ratify, and confirm cortain so-called constitutions, named by such illegal and treasonable .assemblages of persons, which constitutions wero never submitted to the people of the respective States, nor ratified.and confirmed by the United States, thus usurping and exercising powors vested by the Constitution in the Congress ot the United States exclusively.
In that he pardoned large numbers of publioand notorious traitors, with the design of receiving from them aid in such Convention, called by bis advice and direction, for tho purpose of organizing and setting np such illegal Governments in tho States then recently in rebellion prior to. the annual mooting of Congress, with tbeanteut thus to constrain Congress to accept and confirm such illegal and unconstitutional proceedings.
In that ho did within and for the States recently in rebellion, create and establish as a civil officer the oiSce of Provisional Governor, and created an office unknown to the Constitution or laws of the land.
In that he appointed to said offices created ia said States, rsspectively, men who were public and notorious traitors, he well koowing that they had been engaged in open, persistent and formidable efforts for th0 overthrow of the Government of tbo United States, and well knowing also that these men-could not enter upon tho duties of said office without commiting Uio crime-ef perjury, in manifest violation of the laws of tha country.
Io that he dirceted the Secretary of Stato to promise the payment of money to said persons stf illegally appointed, as salary or compensation for services to be performed in said office so illegally created, contrary to the provisions of a law of the United States, approved February 4tb, 1&63, entitled an aot making appropriations for the support of the army for the year ending tho 3Qth day of June, 1864, aod for deficiency for tho Signal Service fot tho year ending Juno 30tb, 1863.
In that he diracUd the Secretary of War to pay moneys to said persons for service performed in said office so illegal-. ly created, which moneys were so paid under his direction, without authority of
law, contrary to law, and In violntion of the Constitution of the United Stales.
1
In that he deliberately dispensod with and suspended the operation of a law of the United Stales, passwi on tbe 2d of July, 1862, entitled an net to prescribe.nn oath of office and for other purposes. 0•
That in conformity to'such ortJor and direction tho collection of moneys pa\ablo and then due to tbe Unitel States was delayed and postponed, and tho interest on such bond#, of which he himself was a large holder, was paid accorditg to the terms of bis own order, thus corwsptly using his office to defraud and wrong tho people of the United States for his own personal advantage.
In that he has not only restored to claimants thereof largo amounts of cotton, and other abandoned property, that had been seised and taken by tho afreets of the Treasury, in conformity to°law, but has paid, and directed the pay ment, of the actual proceeds of sales made thereof, and this in violation of a law of tho United Statei, whicn orders and requires payment into tho Treasury of tho-United States of all moneys received froiu such sales, and provided for loyal claimants sufficient and easy romody in the Caiirt'of Claims, and in manifest violation, al?o, of tho spirit and meaning ot tho Conetittition, wherein it is declared that no money shall be drawn from tho Treasury, but in eonscquence of appropriations made by law.
And further, in that the said Andrew Johnson, President of the United State?, authorized the dse of tho army of a th.! United States for the dispersion of peaceful and lawful assembly of citizen* pf Louisiana, and this by virtue of a dispatch, addressed to a person who was not an officer of tho army, but who public and notorious traitor, and all with the intent to deprive the loyal people Louisiana of every opportunity to fmmn a State Government, republican in fbrifi, and with the intent further to continue in places of trust and emolument, persons who tad engagod in an attempt tc ovojthrow the Government of the Uiated States, expecting thus to conciliite sttrji persons to himself, and secure thoir. aid.in support of hii aforesaid unconstitutional designs, all of which omissions of duty, usurpations of power, violations uf Iffa oath of office, of the laws and of the Con stitution of the U. S. by Andrew Johnson, President of tho United Stnto-«, bave retarded the public prosperity, lessoned life public revenue, disordered the "business and finances of the country, encouraged insubordination in the people of the Stntu's rocently in rebellion, fastened sentiments of hostility between different classes of eitiaens, revived and kept alive the spirit of the rebellion, humiliated the nation, dishonored Republican institutions, obstructed the restoration of said States to the Union, nnd postponed the peaceful and fraternal reorganlgatian of the Government of the United States. The Committee therefore report the accompanying resolution, and recofnmcnd its passage. [Signed.] GKO. M. BOOTWKLLJ

THE mombors of tho House of Representatives, or at least many.of them, seein to appreciate the importance of doing something to determine more dcflnitely the future financial policy of tho Government. Mr. Ingersoll, of Illinois, has introduced a bill to prohibit a further reduction of the currency Mr. Perham, uf Maine, to apiond tho National currency act Mr. Poland, of "Vermont, to amend section forty-ofte of the National currency act Mr. Elliott, of Massachusetts, pledging tho faithoi tho United flutes to tho payment of tho five-twenties in coin Mr. Butler, of Massachusetts, in relation to the public debt, providing that all debts contracted to be paid in gold, be so paid, and all not
so
contracted to be so paid in
lawful money M^c. Broomall, of Pennsylvania to fix tha value of legal tender notes and tor th^ir redemption Mr. Eggleston, of Ohio, to prevent tho further contraction of tho currency, and the further conversion of .currency into bonds payable in gold Mr. Bingham, of Ohio, to repeal all acts authorizing .the Secretary of tho Treasury to retire antl cancel United States notes Mr. Bess, Mr. Baker and Mr. Bromwell have offered rosoiur tions of a similar character, against contraction and for another currency, besides other bills and resolutions affecting thri finances in different -directions. What will bo do^e.Jlu&lly cf Qourje is yet mere conjecture.
IT ia reported from Washington thafr the committes to which have been referred the petitions:for the abolition of tbe tax on cotton, will report favorably uponthe subject, and recommend the immediate repeal of the low which places upon that article a tax of two-and-a-half merits a.pound. Mr. Wells has shown, ia his recent report to the Secretary of tho11 Treasury, that for somo timo bafore the original tax of. three cents was- placed upon cotton, it was Worth over forty eentsf a pound, and that afterwards it
vrent
down to twenty-five cents. The ability* of the artiole to bears tax is redcced according to thodepression in price. Add to that the firct that tbo foreign competition against cotton it now ao'great as to: dispense with the neoessity of purchasing a large portion of it in England, and we have a reason why every facility sLouldbe given to the abolition of the tax aa injurious to cotton'growers, and inexpedient.
