The Political Outlook. There
is no sufficient reason why the Repub
lican party should not carry the State
of Pennsylvania next November by
twenty-five or thirty thousand majority.
Everything promises victory. We go
into the canvass with a fair prospect of
nominating one of the most popular
tickets ever put in the field, and that
without creating a small army of sore
heads within our own ranks. From
present appearances wo will have no
dead-weight candidates to carry every
man proposed belongs to the active,
younger element of the par,ty which has
been its life in the past and is its hope
in the future. The record of the party
in the State is good. For fourteen
years Pennsylvania has been governed
by Republicans, and to-day the', people
havo ample evidence that their choice
Uas been wise and good. We never
had less taxation than at present; our
debt i being paid off, and tho interest
on our sinking fund is so judiciously
invested that the income nearly pays
the current expenses of the government.
Was ever a party after fourteen years ol
continuous rule able to make a better
showing. Coal Gazette.
The Iron Trade.
The prospects of an early resumption
in the iron trade arc, it is said, highly
encouraging, and, judging from preseut
appearances, an active all business will
undoubtedly be done. A leading official
of odo of our principal railways has
lately received a letter from one of our
largest iron workers, in which it is
stated that more orders have been re
ceived for iron within the last lew days
than in all the six weeks previously.
Reports have been received of similar
revivals in various directions, aud manu
facturers generally regard matters lrom
a couleur de rose point of view. Should
the anticipations prove correct, a cor
responding good result will bo percepti
ble in coal and railroad circles.
The Cambria Iron Company, of
Johnstown, Pa., have very recently
started their rolling-mills on what is
Inown in the trade as "double turn,"
viz, night and day work. The Besse
mer steel works of the company, which
have been ruuning irregularly ior some
time past, would now be running on lull
time were it not for the scarcity of
water. It appears that some of the
most important ports ot the machinery
uscd in the manufacture of steel, such
as cranes, lifts, &c., are operated solely
by water-power, which is derived from
the water supplying the town of Johns
town. A probable scarcity of the water
supply, induced by diough or otherwise,
acts prejudicially on the works, inas
much as a temporary suspension of
operations in the steel mills must take
place, so that the townspeople may not
sutler tnrougu the scarcity, 'I he blast
furnaces of the company are rjotj as yet,
id oneraticn
Tho vast majority of the blast fur
naces throughout the State are blown
out, but, as previously stated, active
preparations are iu progress for a vigor
ous full trade.

simply to a loss of about ODC-twelfth ol

thing over 1 bushels per acre below

abuudaut yield.

is the only reliable and perfected prep
aration for restoring Gray ou Faded
Hair to its youthful color, making it

by its use, becomes white and clean.
It removes all eruptions and dandruff
and, by its tonio properties, prevents
