THK "ATLANTIC” lOBBECEMBER. We receive through Turner Bros, copies of Ibis and the following Magazines: .First and-foremost; comes ; James Parton’s article on rotation iu office,entitled “Uncle Sam’s Treatment of his Son ants,” from which we shall take an extract. Tlie only poctn is Bayard Taylor’s plea against teetotalism, called “In My Vineyard.*’ The remaining, contents are: The Dead Level, by F. Sheldon; The Mormon Prophet’s Tragedy, by John Hay.; The Brick Moon—lU.; by E. E. Hale; Ameri oan Industry in the Census, by F. A. Walker; Mr. Bruce, by Alice Eliot : The Increase of Human Life —HI., by Edward Jarvis, M. D., The Fod in the Household- —X., by Caroline Clicsebro: Life-Saving as a Business Ddty, by W. F. G. Shanks; John, by A. D. Richardson; Under the Midnight Sun, by 1.1. Hayes; aiid the Reviews and Literary Notices. Mr. Parton, who certainly of all our agitators lias the best knack of fermenting the public, does excellent service in pointing out to. the American people that it can never have a good article, even of civil service, at a mean price. The paper is de voted, of couree, to home offi cials alone. We wish Mr. Parton, out of his Atlantic profits, would take a foreign tour for the purpose of examining and commenting on those American offices abroad, which, by their vulgar personnel and cheap kind of establish ment, are the ridicule of Europeans and the confusion of traveling Americans: , UNCLE SAM AND HIS SERVANTS. First, as to the wages he pays them. It is not necessary tor him to give high salaries, be v cause there are two precious commodities with which a government can reward its servants, , over and above the money it pays them. One ; is honor; the other is safety. These two things, honor and safety, are what the virtuous ' portion of mankind strive for; and so pre ;■ cious are they, tliat when, after years of honest . toil, a man has attained them, most of us join ’■ in the acclaim which pronounces his life sua > cessfid. Now a government can bestow these . upon every person whom it retains in its ser vice. It can reasonably ask a man, in the full tide of a victorious career, to relinquish his vocation, and devote his life to the public ser vice, for a comparatively smalt sum per an num, provided that sum per annum is made securely his until justly forfeited. It can do this,because a decent and secure maintenance, with the honor properly belonging to a gov ernment office, constitutes an entire material success. No man can get any more material good than , that, for the sim ple reason that there is no more to get. Mr. Astor was right in saying that he de rived from his estate only the,few thousands a ' year which it costhim to live; but those few thousands are so securely his that he can he deprived of them only by his own fault or folly. A government can place its higher ser . 'rants iu a position more desirable even than his, since to his safety it can add honor. There is no honor in owning a thousand houses, but it is highly honorable, under a properly consti tuted government, to be the trusted and faith ful servant of the public. Hence, on these terms, a government can usually have the choice of all the most suitable persons for anv post. If it happens to want a I judge, it can usually haver the best lawyer of the most distinguished court. If it wants a Lilian of business, it can select the best execu '■ rive talent known to exist. Why should it not? It can oiler better wages than a man gets in a private station, more honor, and equal safety. We have recently seen that one of the ablest business men in the country, already in the possession of a secure fortune, was willing to give up three millions per annum for the I honor and satisfaction of serving the public. I fear we must admit that Uncle Sam, with I all liis generosity and good intentions, pays to his upper servants the smallest wages a govern ment ever paid,—wages so mean that it is won (1 erful he gets any faithful, efficient service at all. lie does geto-a good deal: but he has little right to expect' it. When he confers se curity he gives along With it a pinching, lower ing. corrupting salary: and in the majority of cases his servants enjoy neither safety nor abundance. I>AV OF THK .SECRETARY' OF TIIE TREASURY. Sir Frederick llruce might well be interested in the Court of Claims; but there is some thinfj in Washington a thousand times more wonderful and more original than that. Like other wonders, however, it escapes observation because we are so familiar with it. Walkover the Treasuiy building; mark the thousands of persons employed therein; Consider the nature of their employment: contemplate the mag nitude and difficulty of the task imposed. upon the head of'that department; think 1 of '■"the wide-spread ruin that could result from an ereor on his part, and the lasting good that might come of .one superior method. Con sider the trust reposed in him, the ease with which that trust could-be violated, and the ab solute certainty we have that it never is, never has been, and never will he violated. Think of ail tliis, and then reflect upon the fact that "—out of those inconceivable millions tliat pass under his control, we permit him to retain for his own use not enough to keep house upon. “How much rent do you pay here in Wash ington asked some one of Mr.- Evarts last winter. “My salary,” was the reply. This is the great wonder, not of Washington only, but of the world. The pyramids of Egypt are commonplace com pared with, it. The man that supplies the Treasuiy building with any one of the leading. - articles used in it would turn np his nose at eight thousand dollars a year. Fortunes were made iu the mere erection of the edifice. Yet Secretaries of the Treasuiy, as they have gone down those granite steps in the afternoon, have doubtless often fallen -into a deep meditation upon the ways and means of getting over the next rent day. They have generally been men of small fortunes. Hamilton was obliged to resign and go home to earn money for his large family, and Gallatin was: never , in veiy liberal circumstances. Gal latin had an opportunity once of gaining a large fortune in Paris without dis honor. “No,” said lie to the representative of the great house which he had obliged,—“no; a man who has heen intrusted with the finances of his country must not die rich.” In this lofty spirit the office has generally b een held. FAY OF THE CABINET MEMBERS. The time lias come, 1 think, for putting the members of the Cabinet a little more at their • ease. The people do not want to be under an obligation to them of a pecuniary nature. They did not want Mr. Stanton to work during the war as ho galley-slave ever worked, and yet live in part upon his private for * tune : nor is it- wise to subject human 11a- ■ tufe to such a staggering temptation. The man' whose signature confers place and wealth ought not to be left to grapple with the em barrassments of an insufficient income. Uncle Sam has a large although " not unencumbered estate, and be can well afford to maintain those who serve him in a style suited to the im portance and dignity of their duties. To keep house in Washington on the scale adopted by Mr. Seward, who liyedplainly enough and gave perhaps twenty moderate dinners a year, costs about fifteen thousand dollars per annum; wldcli is about the present value of the salary wliicli Hamilton found Inadequate during the presidency of General Washington. Hamil ton, however, had .married a rich man’s daughter, who liad probably a rich man's daughter’s ideas, as to what are', the necessaries of life. Ilis vices also were expensive, "or, to speak more exactly,- his vice. Tlie virtuous public men of the present day could probably retain the post of Cabinet Minister-or Vicc-JVesidaut for a few years upon liflcen thousand dollars a year without " *y,• , seriously encroaching upon their ‘private for tunes ; and a salary of that amount would give the President a much wider range of choice.- “ Perhaps,” said Mr. Wade last spring, “I should have taken office, if it tod been .offered me; but the pay I could not have held the position _and kept house in Washington as Cabinet Min isters are expected to, for the; salary.— It would have taken five thousand dollars a year more from"my private means, unless I’d steal, and I’m too old to. begin to steal.” > The grado of officials just below that of Cabinet Minister, the class represented during the war by Mr. G. V. Fox, Assistant Secretary of the Navy, are persons of great importance in Washington. The supposed necessities of party sometimes induce a President to fill a place in the Cabinet with any old figure-head that happens to belying about. In any case, the person next in rank to the chief exercises great authority, and will generally be to his de partment what a First Lieutenant is to his ship. It is admitted on all hands that the sudden expansion of the navy of the United States during the first years of the war, resulting in a real blockade of aii immense line of coast, and in the im mortal victories of Farragut and his comrades, was the lie phis ultra of administrative achieve ment. It is also admitted that this was chiofly the work of Mr. G. V. Fox. Now, it was no hardship to Mr. Fox,in those glorious years,to serve his .country’ for less money than would pay for the hoard and lodging of a small family in a third-rate hotel. On the contrary* it was a sweet, a high, a priceless privilege. The meanness of tlie salary enhanced the glory and fascination of the post. It must have been delicious, sometimes, when he had signed contracts that would enrich half a dozen men, to contemplate the leanness of liis own exchequer. It must have been a gratification bordering on the sublime, just after he had asked a creditor to wait till next quarter-day for his money, to read in a Democratic news paper of the enormous sums he was making from his interests in navy contracts. But hu man nature cannot be kept at that pitch of ex altation iu which we lived from 1801 to 1805 ; nor is there any need that it should be. In tlie long run, bread-and-butter, as ex-Alderman Johnson styled it, rules tlie world; and, when the war was over, Mi-. Fox was more than justified in resigning liis place in Washington, at thirty-five hundred dollars a year, to accept the superintendency of a manufactory at Lowell, at seven thousand. Seven thousand dollars a year at Lowell is about equal to eleven thousand dollars a year in Washington. THE TltfEliF ALIFICATIO.NS Fill! AN APPOIXT • M lON'IV- “I don’t see what is tlie use of having such men as John Clark here,*’ said a high official i n the Philadelphia Custon House of one of liis clerks. “Why not,” asked a bystander. The reply was“lie has been here six or seven years, and he lias never carried liis precinct.” Tin: JACKSON ROTATION SYSTEM! HOW IT WORKS. ' I turn from Capo Ann to a scene which I witnessed in tlie White House a few days after the last Inauguration. If the Jackson rotation system appears endurable upon the sea-coast, it is entirely hideous at Washington. . About nine o’clock one morning, on going by tlie President's house, I observed a great number of meti standing about the front-door, and many others walk ing towards it, as though some thing was going on and the public had been invited to attend. I joined tlie throng and entered the hall. The President’s family had not yet taken possession, and several uphol sterers were making wild efforts to take up tlie carpets; while parties were waiting for some one who had gone to find some one else who had the key of the East Room, which they were desirous of seeing. Meanwhile they strolled about in the smaller show apartments, stumbling over rolls of carpet, inhaling dust, and viewing works of art. But most of those who entered this private residence of a respect able family went up stairs, where the President was supposed to he. Following the stream, I found myself in one of tlie suite of rooms of the east wing, adjacent to tlie apartment in which tie President usually receives people who call on business. These large rooms were filled with men, standing in groups, talking eagerly together, or sitting silent and anxious on the seats that lined the wall.. The roar of conversation was like that of the Chi cago Exchange when wheat is coming in freely, and the air was as pestiferous as at ah evening party the giver of- which keeps four stout colored men opening champagne, but for gets to let in a little inexpensive atmosphere. The men here assembled had a sttffi cient, capable aspect; many of them were persons of note in politics; many had distinguished themselves in the war. Strolling about among them, and passing from room to room, 1 came at last to the noon,—the door of doors, —which all of those present desired to enter. Some of them had crossed a continent to enter it; and there it was, tight shut, guarded by two ushers, and two hundred people were waiting to go in. It was not necessary for any one to be told that this door led to the Presi dent's office. There was a lane of men, termi nating at the door, and extending back into the middle of the room, each man of which looked at the door as though it were beef and he had tasted nothing for three days and three nights. I saw then what the poet meant who first spoke of people decouriny objects with their eyes. These men had a hriDgry look. With their eyes they were eat ing up that dingy white door. So intent were they upon it that they were unconscious of themselves, of their'attitude and-expression; and, when at last the door opened, it was awful to see how they scanned the face of the messenger and watched his movements. And so they waited, hour after hour. Failing tp get in one day, they would try again the next. Some of those men present had been trying for lour days for admission, and had still no expectation of getting iu very soon. Mirny had given up the attempt to see the President, and were waiting there in hopes of speaking with their senator or member, who would convey their wishes to him. A scene similar to this, but on a smaller scale, was going on wherever there was a per son in Washington who had easy access to the President. A member of Congress who was supposed to have any particular influence with him would have a hundred applications a day for the exertion of that influence. One mem ber, who was not on the best terms .with the President, would have twenty callers, iu one evening, asking his aid in procuring a favorable presentation of their “claims.’’ Washington swarmed with office-seekers. At the Capitol, when a messenger arrived from the White House with a packetof nominations, the.rush of men toward the Senate wing of the building was like the thundering tramp of buffaloes across a prairie. ; I might dwell upon the waste, the auguisli, . the . indecency, .the... degradation, of this scramble. I might speak of men coming to Washington with hopes arid pockets, who begin by living at Willard’s and treating with ■ champagne, then remove to a less expensive I hotel, afterwards to a cheap boarding-house, and finally, alter subsisting awhile at “free lunches,” borrow money to go home, where they -arrive haggard and savage. I might speak of the impossibility . of, making good appointments in such circum stances ; of the much better chance that bra/cn importunity has at such a time than merit; of the greater likelihood that a noisy eleventh-hour convert will get an office .than a man who lias borne the. burden and peat of the day, but lias omitted to come to Washington: or of the infernal cruelty of j Wo)king a President to within an inch of ins i life in the" first six weeks of his term. But all ' things cannot lm said in one short article. Tlie | great evil of the system, as it is seen at Wash ! ington, is, that it compels the chief persons of the government to expend most of 'their time and strength, upon a mat- THE DAILY KVKKIB(i BCILETIN-PHILADSLPHIA, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1869. ter that properly belongs to subordl-; nates. When i" “-President Grant came into office, tlie re were several matters of great; importance which demanded his attention and; that of his Cabinet; such as Cuba, tlie Alabama claiitts, reconstruction, and the adop tion of a financial polloyiv.'Tlie.'cbnsiderAtwii; of such subjects is the high duty which the; Constitution.assigns to the heads of the govern-' ineht, and hi order to get that duty done the people gave General Grant their votes. But, during the first week of his term he was worn out, day after day, by listening to the claims and settling the differences or people whose existence would naturally be knowuxo a Presi-i dent or a Cabinet Minister only through the Blue Book. ' ■ And this, let me add, is the chief labor of a President all through his term, “ What is it to be President P” I once asked of a gentleman who had filled the office; “what is the prin cipal thing a President doe 3?” The reply was: “To make appointments.” RAFFERTY, OF THE PHILADELPHIA NAVY YARD. A mere lounger about Washington can see that this is true; and it is manifest to all who look over such documents as that containing the testimony taken by the Covode Committee in 1800. The reader of that choice volume perceives that Mr. Buchanan wrote loDg let ters and spent laborious hours in forcing upon the Philadelphia. Navy Yard an incom petent head-carpenter. The authorities of the yard sent back word that the man could not pass his examination. No matter; the President of the United States would have him appointed, and he was appointed; for he had rendered services in the Presidential elec tion which a Buchanan could hot overlook. The following is a portion of tho man’s sworn testimony: “Question—Do you mean to say that you gave [naturalization] papers to parties who subsequently used them'in elections without ever going before a Court to make the necessary proof [of five years’residence] ? “Answer—l have given a few. “Question—Well, how many did you distri bute vourself? “Answer— Two or three thousand .” This was the man—Patrick Lafferty was his name—whom the President of tho United States put over tho head of American raeclian ics. Ido not adduce the fact to illustrate the corrupting tendency of rotation, but to show the petty nature of the employment to which it reduces the head of the government. lam not sure that Mr. Buchanan was aware of tho kind of service which liis Irish friend had ren dered him; but thq assiduous Lafferty swore that when he failed to pass , his ex amination he went to Washington and conversed with the President upon the subject for an hour and a half. We also find the President, upon the pages of this huge vol ume, meddling in the pettiest details of the pettiest ward elections, and superintending the division of the vulgarest portion of the spoils. He airanged the division and subdivision of tlie profits made on the public printing, and lie parceled out among three of his Pennsylvania neighbors the percentage allowed on the price of the coal purchased forthe government. Do we elect a President for such work as this ? SPOILS TO TIIE VICTOR* UNDER GRANT. Let no one hug the delusion that the system is changed under President Grant. He cannot change'it. I have no doubt he is as fully alive to its absurdities and its impolicy as any man living; but, like Mr. Lincoln, he feels that, he must run the machine as he finds it. He is, indeed, a victim of the system, which may yet cost him his life, as it cost the lives of two of his predecessors. His appointments.show tliat lie practically accepts, the doctrine that to tho victors belong the spoils, _ and _ tliat lie is even exceptionally insensible to the peculiar claims which poli ticians occasionally respect, In fact, be is worried out of his life with the endless suc cession of importunate applicants. I used to wonder in Washington that he did not give it up, and fly to parts unknown, leaving us with out any Uncle Sam. In all probability, too, he desires re-election. Every President de sires it. It is human nature. The politicians would drop him in an instant, and set “party organs” at work creating odium against him, if he were to pause dnd make appointments on any other principle than the one which politicians recognize; aud when the nomi nating convention met, in 1872, his name would not be mentioned among the candi dates. Nothing will ever touch this evil-short of re storing to the public service that element of permanence whicli it once had, and which all successful private establishments possess. In the lower grades of the persons employed in our great houses of business, there are fre • quent changes. Young men come and go, as they ought, trying themselves and the places they fill. Sometimes the person resigns the place and sometimes the place rejects the person; and it is seldom indeed that a man goes on for life as ho begins. But in the higher -grades there is, there should be, there must he, a de gree of permanence. Twice a year, for fifteen years, I have gone to a certain bank to receive a dividend for a person who cannot conve-' niently go herself. Invariably I find the same paying-teller, well-appointed, self-pos sessed, counting out the money with that careful rapidity that never permits a mistake; the same excellent cashier, who learned his Latin Reader at my side at school no end of years- ago; the same serene and agreeable dividend-elerk, and tlie same nice yqung man helping hiua. All goes like clock work; all is efficient, vigorous, and successful The young men, asis just, work-hard, get little, and are not yet certain of keeping their places; but they know that if they finally choose to trust their future to tliat hank, there are places in it for the deserving wliich-will give them a decent livelihood and all tlie security needful for peace and dignity. .So it could be at tlie custom-hoilse round tlie corner, if only two men in it were fixed in their places during good behavior;‘namely, tlie collector and tlie ap praiser. Give just those two men a fair compensation, say thirty thousand dollars a year and no fees; put it out of tlie power of politicians to re move them ;give them the light to select their assistants: and hold them responsible for tho faithful collection of the duties,—aud we should soon have a custom-house tliat would afford as pleasing a scene of tranquil and efficient in dustry as the jiank. The principle of perman ence should be earned much farther; but even this little would lay the qxe to the root of the evil, and give Uncle Sam better work and more revenue at two-thirds of tlie present expense, i After a trial of forty years, rotation stands condemned as a wholly unmitigated evil, hurt ing everybody and blessing nobody, helping nothing tliat is good, and aggravating every evil. Unde Sam will never he better served tlian he is until he learns to treat liis servants with a liberality-and consideration that seem .ttH>retent far from his thoughts, “Young Folks” for December.

An English pai>er is discussing; iqhestlons of social life, lind observes. on j |hc -subject of dinners: ' ” ‘ t • . • “Most of us liave traveled' to ah amazing ex tent beyond the simple and. original;limits of ■appetite and its supply. Look at the ‘little did ner’ Avhicb ; Jones- gives to the Browns and WunAs—all-very worOiy 'ifeopliß,: yet curiously' unwnifelous that a hundred cbuntrieV are paly mg'tribufeto their respectable digestive organs. To set this table, first of all, has taxed Ruasia and Ireland .foc linenj itlie .Spice; Islands for the cruet-stand, Africa for the ivory handled knives, Mexico . for the plate, and Honduras for the ‘mahogany tree’ itsejfV , 4’he \ermicclli in thejsoup. has traveled frontNaplest the oil for thelishfrpmTuscauy; the Baltic, likely enough, has forwarded the caviar; and the Mediterranean, sardines for the horn dVec/v*. Then,.not to s{icak of the native-grown commodities which wilt grace that Comfortable board—such as mutton from Wales or the Grampians* turkeys front Norfolk, grotlsc from Scotland, and woodcock from, Cornwall—will the diners not have iee feom American or Norwegian winters, wine from vineyards of the. Garoniie and the Rhone,’ sherry of Spain, aiid licpieitr of the Russian’s er the Frenchman's making, with’ fruits from West Indian and Grecian Islands; sweetmeats •f Paris, and coffee gathered at,Costa.Rica, at ilocha, or, as it may be, Ceylon ? • j “If the gentlemen, as is quite jwssible, smoke after the banquet, Havana on one side of the world and Manilla on the other side furnish them with the fragrant leaf—should the tobac coiilst; be only eohscientlous; and when the ladies'take tea, 'China transmits over sixteen thousand miles of water way to their comely lips the -material for the infusion. “Furthermore, the dresses which the coiii pany will wedr, and their various ornaments, open a new chapter of geographical enumera tion. Silkworms of Lombardy and Japan, Inpins of Genoa and Lyons, cotton-growers in J-gy[>*, Tennessee, Brazil or Dhurivar have united to array them; their gloves use,d to roam upon the Savoy mountains; their feath ers (lew about tlie palm-groves of Sumatran Archipelagoes; their matronly embonpoint is sustained by the hones of Arctic whales; Per sian oyster-beds have supplied their pearls; and their chignons possibly once belonged to heads a thousand miles away. “It is carious to remark, In truth, that civilization —in the sense of community of customs—is at present , mainly confined to dinners and to dress. We eat together from all the menu* of all the-lands, and we array onrselves, in order to eat, in one arid the same lugubrious style, throughout the civilized world. Dinner has effected what commerce, treaties, travels and Christianity never could compass, for widely diverse In all other par ticulars, the Englishman, Frenchman, Ameri can, German, Italian, Spaniard—and, in fact, all decent people within the range of European influence—put on one and the same vestment when they ‘go to dinner.’ - THE IIALT/liOOM. The same paper says; “A correspondent says that, in place of dan sere, what he sees now-a-days in ball-rooms is A crowd of over-dressed people, who do little eke than tread, trample, and maul each other’s toilets about. Every now and then a space Is cleared as for a tight: and a few couples con trive to execute certain spasmodic manoeuvres without grace or dignity. No doubt in such a space a few couples may occasionally bo seen whirling about—waltzing they call it—like a set of dancing dervishes; but tlm exhibition is rather nhpleasing than otherwise; and yet pretty young girls are the performers. This is the lirst point: there cannot be dancing where there is not space. “ If you would give a ball, you must liave a ball-room. All your devices of clearing away furniture and rigging up a little symbolical green-house on the landing-place on the top of the lirst flight of stairs, are idle and of no avail. You have received one hundred andjforty guests where forty should have been your Unlit. Unless you can perform the trick of putting a gallon of water into a pint bottle, yon should give up the vain endeavor of packing your nn . fortunate fellew-creaturCs like herrings in a barrel. More than half of the guests—may one due to call them fellow-creatures?—arc ladies with elaborate trains; what a pleasant time they must have of It, gasping about on the staircases and in the lobbies! Without space, and plenty of space, we repeat, there can be no dancing; “ Under the next head—that of the dancers themselves—it is rather the fashion of the day that would seem to lie at fault. Why are the bodies of the dancers and the souls of the spec tators disquieted with gymnastic performances, under the pretext of waltzing and wliat not? An infuriated Zouave could scarcely keep: up with tho musicians in the mad hurly-burly of their passionate performance. Surely that is net dancing. A man has one.advantage in liis middle age in this year of grace 1 Stilt. He may have seen the Dariee of Four danced by the best dancers, save' one, who ever trod on thsr floor of the opera. Who ever saw Fariuy Bus ier, C’arlotta Grisi, Cento, or Lucile/feahu romping ? Those ladies could danegz^ Had it been otherwise, what a rebuke - would liave been administered to them when the Queen of Dance, the royal Tagiioni, herself glided upon the scene, and showed }ti how graceful and exquisite was her art./She Would as soon have thought of boxing/with a coalheaver as of jumping and prancing round a room after the fashion of ogrmoderu danccers. “The music, of course, is not a whit less astray than the dancing. Whether the musi cians hnve bitten the dancers, or the dancers have bitten the m nsicians, is not for us to de termine ; but quite certainly they have all gone mad together. One word, before we have done with this point, to ladies who will givo ; monstrous balls in small houses. There must be room for music as well as for dancing. It is a cruel treatment of their guests to thrust half a dozen, or even four musicians into one ■ of their little back drawing-rooms, and bid ■ them blow away for their lives. Nobody could ' spend a pleasant evening amid the din of a cot ton factory. There should be harmony and proportion throughout. The l’se of Whittling?. In reading recently a detailed statement of ‘ the capture of Fort PtMski by oUr troops on ' the Uth of April, 1802,ive learned that whit- S tling was turned to good account. Late at [ night (the engagement was to begin early next i morning) Lieut. Porter visited all our bat-. 1 teries to sec that everything was ready for the l opening of the great drama. Many little items y were found to he needed, and were" promptly ; provided. . At the ten-inch mortar battery,.fuse * pings were still wanting; and there" were none ito be had. The ordnance officer had brought ; up a Supply, but they were prepared for an other place, and were of no use. ’ Here, then, '< were four pieces of the most advanced posi tion, which would he useless—and (ire was to I he opened at daylight. i;, The officer was in . despair .until, a happy ■j thought struck him. There'was a Yankee j regiment on the field—all Yankees and whit .• tiers—and if that iregiment could be turned out iat once, and set to work at their favorite ? pas j time, they could whittle out a supply before ,{. daylight. Porter immediately,pnMipurs to his i horse, and rode ftiriously to camp. “The Sixth I}CoDuecticut were ordered out to whittle, and, I did whittle to advantage, providing all the Iplues that were used in Batteiy Totten on the, two succeeding days”—until Pulaski pulled ‘down the repel flag, arid parsed under the : stars and stripes. , , GASFIXTURES.

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, thick ened, falling hair checked, and bald ness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands atrophied and decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. . Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. < Its occasional use will prevent the hair from turning gray or falling off, 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. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
