Commotion Amongst Tits Bakers. —The com plaint we noticed as having been entered upon the Mayor’s Book, tho other day, against the bakers of the city, for selling bread of light weight, has produced qui*e a sensation. Yes terday, the Mayor’s police, had under their no tice, twenty or twenty-foor bakers, and but three of the whole number were ablo to show bread of th-? legal two pound size. In many cases, tho loaves averaged but a pound and a half; while some of thorn wero ns light as a pound and a quart r. Those bakers not conforming to tho ordinance wore summoned to make their appearance before A dermao Donald son next Monday; at which time, uo doubt, full justice will ho dealt to them. It seems eingu lar that it never beforo struck purchasers they were paying too dear for their bread. The com plaint, although made in very bad English, is the most important yet placed on the complaint book, and we are glad to see it so promptly acted on. Diainicx Conm.—Before Hon. H. W. Wil- Hama.

Remember the Orphan —Our readers who can spare a trifle, cannot do better thm spend it ' at tho Festival, this afternoon and night, in Ma sonic Hall—which the ladies have gotten np to , aid the Farm School for Orphans, recently established by *Kev.

Pennsylvania Railroad Company. —The fol lowing nre the receipts of this road for the month ending February 28. 1855: $191,014 22 Same month last yenr 301.705 38 Decrease The increase in the month of January, 1855, over January, 1851. was $10,024 00. The de crease in February was owing to the short crop of last season throughout the West ; to the Ohio river being frozen up. and to the de struction of the bridge near Lewistown by fire oa the 3d iost, which impeded the iransporta •tion of freight for two weeks. Theatre. —We are sorry to see the manager 'aanouuces a repetition of tho new play of the Lonely Mud of the Ocean ('what a title!) to night, This piece is us miserable a combination of claptrap and balderdash as we have ever seen on the Btage. It ebould be forever buried in oblivion. Why the manager will impose on the good nataro of play-goers hero by forcing 6uch trash on them, when he has tbe choice of so many better piecce, which could bo well played by his excellent stock company, we don’t under stand. Killed. —We are pained to learn of the sud den death of Mr. B. F. Weaver, of Freeport He was killed on Saturday evening, at tbe tua nel on the North Western Railroad, above Kit tanning, by the falling of earth and rock. He lived but two hours after the accident.

Berk us apprehensions are beginning to bo felt In Ohloln regard to the yield of Wheat at the ensuing harvest. It is conceded by every one who pretends to any knowlodgo in the matter, that should the crops now growing be a failure the country would be on tho verge of bankruptcy; while on the contrary it Is equally clear that a prolific harvest is only needed to restore our land to its wonted prosperity Hence ills that every thing connected with Its prospects to all Is’ptogbant with Interest. The Sandusky Cbmmerciol Register (the editor of which is a* well if not better informed on the subject than any other man In Ohio) states in speaking on this subject “that In tho State of Ohio, at leist J.he northern half of the State, tho quantity of Wheat sown Is not more than half that of last year, estimating by tho number of acres occu, pied. Some who have given the subject attention say not more than ono-thlrd.” The editor further says “ a gentle man of great observation and ample means of Information azures us that on tbo line of one of our most important Railroads, for a distanco equal to one hundred miles south from this place, there will bo no surplus for Export till eve ry acre sown shall produce a fair crop.” When we renum ber that witbin a mdlas of 109 miles of P&ndnpky two. thirds of the Wheat In Ohio is grown, it must be confessed the picture 19 rather a gloomy one. la view of the forego* ing facts and to prevent tho unhappy consequences which resulted from a short crop last year he advises the farmers to 30w Spring Wheat. “ Although there is a general nver* sion to the raising o( this crop, on account of the compiira* tively iuw price it bear? in market, yet the experiment has been succestfully tried. We are informed that in one in stance in this (Erie) connty, iwo fields were grown, side by side, last year; and while the Spring crop proved quite fair In amount and quality the Fall sown field was not harvest ed at nil. As to price, the circumstances of the case reduce tho question to simply this: Is It better to produce n crop fttr export which will bring something less than the highest price, or to hsvo none to sell at all ?” New Yore, March 13.—-Cotton firm: sales GOO bale?, part In transitu; N.O, middling Flour firm: ?*!«*? 4,000 bbifi Rood Ohio; Southern firm.

Ita peculiar chemical quail ties have a beneficial effect upon the growth and character of the hair, giving a silky and glossy texture to that which was former ly of a coarse and dry nature. It has also a tendency to preserve the youthful color and appearance of the hair, and destroying or counteracting the effects of ago. With ‘such recommendation? in its favor, wo hardly perceive how any lady or gentleman should be without.so valuable an adjunct to the toilet Persons who have used It from the age of sixty-four down, declare it to be the most perfect ar ticle to secure the object intended ever yet produced. Gray hair, whether produced by the slow progress of time, or by any of the causes which whiten the locks'-prematurely, is restored to a healthy, lively appearance, and all the dlsa. grecablo effects of dryness, the accumulation of dandruff or Dkg impurities, are removed. From the Editor of the Beal Estate Advertiser, 27 School st Boston, March 20,1854. Psop. Wood: Dear Blr—Having become prematurely quite gray, I was induced same six weeks siDce, to make trial of your Hair Restorative. I have used less than two bottles, but tho gray hairs have all disappeared; and al though my hair bos not folly attained its original color, yet the process of change la gradually going on, and I have great hopes that, in a short time, my hair will bo as dark oa formerly. I have also been much gratified'at the healthy moisture and vigor of the hair, which before was harsh and dry, and U has ceased to come out os formerly. Respectfully Yours, D. C M. Rupp. Paor. Wood: Dear Sir —My hair commenced falling off fome three or four j-oars since,end continued to do so until I became qulto bald. I tried all the popular remedies of the day, but to no effect; at last I was induced to use your cel-' ebrated Hair Restorative, and am very happy to any it Is doing wonders. I have now a fine growth of young h;dr, and cheerfully recommend Us use to all similarly afflicted. A. C. WiUJAStflos, 133 Second street. St. Louis, March 7th, 1854. Carlyle, HI., June 27th, 1803. I have used Prof O. J. Wood’s Hair Restorative, and haTe admired its wonderfai effect. My hair was becoming, os 1 thought, prematurely gray, but bv tho use of bla Restora tive, it has resumed its original color, and, I have no doubt, permanently so. Sydney Bbxisb, Ex-Senator, United States. Vincennes, Indiana, June 15th, 1553. Peov. 0. J. Wood: Dear Sir—As yon arc about to manu facture extensively and rend your recently discovered Hair Restorative, I will state, for whomsoever may concern, that I have used it, and known others use it; that I have for several years been in tho habit or using other Hair Re storatives, and that I find yours vastly superior to any other I know. It entirely cleanses the head of dandruff, and with one month’s proper use will restore toy person’s hair to the original youthful color and texture, giving it a healthy, soft, and glossy appearance, and all this without discoloring the hands that apply It, or tho dress rn which it drops. I would, therefore, recommend its use to every one desirous of having a fine color and texture to hair. Respectfully yours, Wilson Ejno. For sale by 0. J.
