The Harvest. —The latest reports tend to show
that although in many districts the growth is thin,
yet the weight balances to a great extent any ap
parent deficiency, and the quiil
harvest progresses most satisfactorily.
Illustrious Visitors. arc at present
honored with tho preseneg-of an unusually large
number of distinguished visitors. The Archduke
Maximilian of Austria, and his wife, who is a cousin
of her Majesty, have forborne time past been stav

The Social Science Congress is making a great
stir in its sober glories will pale
before of the Itoyal virit soon to follow. The
Dublin Council, in agreeing to an address, were
impeded by the objection of one member, who said
that “ some time ago u was stated, and not denied,
that Prince Albert, in writing to a distinguished
foreigner, stated that the Irish were not more
worthy of sympathy than the Poles. He could not
understand how any assembly of Irishmen could
present a nattering address to that mnn if he made
such a statement a* that representing them.”

The King of Sweden having been feted and lion
ized to his heart’s content in Paris, has passed over
the Straits, and is now on a visit to the Queen at
Osborne, To meet his Swedish Majesty, Lords Pal
merston and Russell have bceD invited to the Isle
of Wight, and, while there, it is conccivablo that
the rupture between Denmark and Prussia, in
which the King of Sweden is largely interested,
will form a prominent point of interest; but still
stronger and more immediate reasons will probably
be the arrangements for a succossor to the crown of
Denmark. The present King of Denmark is child
less. and the succession to his throne was fixed at a
Conference of the Great Powers in 1852. By that
arrangement the Prince of Glucksburg was de
clared to he the heir to the throne, but the heir so
appointed is most unpopular, and. m the event of
the present King’s death, serious consequences
might result therefrom. The King of Sweden,
with the consent of the King of Denmark, is anxious
that, ou the death of the latter, Denmark. Sweden,
and Norway should be united under one crown, and
that a new capital—Guthemberg. on the Cattegnt
—should represent the whole of the Scandinavian
people. The Emperor of the French has been won
over to the project, and it is believed that it will not
b© unpalatable to Queen Victoria and her ministers,
The old dread of Russia has not been so great since
the Crimean war, but it may revive some day, and
tins new combination will be regarded as a set-off
to the power and influence of the Czar.
Earl Russell has waived any claim to lead the
House of Lords: but it is rumored that Lord Gran
ville will speedily quit the Cabinet, and accept tho
embassy to Paris, in order to leave to Earl Russell
the unquestioned leadership of the House of Lords.
The Late Duke of Bedford.— The will of the
late Duke of Bedford has just been proved. He
has directed that a yearly sum of £5.f100 be set
apart for twenty-one years to increase the family
rent toll. To Earl Russell is bequeathed the Lud
low estates in Ireland, which are to descend to Earl
Russell's eldest son and his issue, but subject to
annuities to the Earl's daughter. ' His grace hns
also bequeathed to Earl Russell a life interest in
£15,000, with power of disposition to his children.
The Peerage.—Since the accession of the
Queen there have been nineteen earldoms created,
of which no fewer than fifteen arc the work of Libe
ral Premiers, five being made in 1837. The nine
teen earldoms are those of Effingham, Ducie, Yar
borough. Innes, (Duke of Roxburgh©), Leicester,
Lovelace, Zetland, Auckland (extinct). Gains
borough, Filzhnrdinge (extinct), Ellenborough, El
lesmere, Strafford, Cottenham, Cowley, Canning,
IVinton (Earl of Eglinton), Dudley, and Russell.
During the same period eleven earldoms have be
come extinct, and three have merged into superior
titles. L
A sciox of the oldest barony in the empire died
a few days since in an Irish poorhouse.
Perpetual Pensions.— The Finance Accounts
show that we paid, last year, £16,000 for perpetual
pensions. The last pension of this nature was ono
of £2,000 a year, granted in 1614 to the heirs male
on whom the title of Viscount Exmouth shall de
scend. Since that date no pension has been for a
longer term than the life of the person whose ser
vices were to be acknowledged and the lives of his
two next heirs.
Mn. Mayer, of Liverpool, the well-known anti
quary, behoves that he has succeeded in decipher
ing a papyrus roll in Ids possession, and that it is a
copy of the Gospel of St. Matthew, written by the
Deacon Nicolas in the fifteenth year of the Chris
tian era. It supplies two lost verses, and gives new
readings of some obscure passages. fhn Pt.llicJt
trs Circular announces its speedy publication.
Imprisonment for Debt. —lt is sometimes sup
posed that imprisonment for debt has been almost
abolished, but the official returns show that in the
year ending at Michaelmas last there were commit
ted to the prisons of England, for debt, on civil
process, no less than 11,068 men and Clip women, in
all 11.707; and, large as the number seems, it has
never been sc small in any year since 1850. In the
five years, 1851-55, the annual average was 9,317;
in the five years, ISSO-60, it has been 13, 830.
Long Lii k in- England. -- It, speaks well for the
healthiness of England that in the year 1859, for
which the returns have just been published, the list
of deaths included twenty-fivo men and fifty-six
women who had attained what Dr. Farr calls “ the
natural lifetime of a hundred years.” The oldest
man in the obituary of the year died at Sunderland,
aged 107: but a woman in "Workingham district,
Berks, was 10S, and two women, one in Monmouth
shire and ono in South Wales, had reached the pa
triarchal age of 110. Of these centenarians eight
were found in London; the county that could boast
the largest number is Somersetshire, in which there
were seven.
Fbench and English Mobtalitt,— The public
documents of 1859 show that the mortality in that
year in Great Britain was at the rate of 2.196 per
cent., in Franco 2.670, but this latter is considerably
above the averago of that empire, owing to the
prevalence at that time of dysentery, diptheria,
and some other epidemics. The marriage-rate in
Great Britain was 1.650 per cent., in France 1.638.
The birth-rate in Great Britain was 3.482, in
France 2.778. Thus the marriage-rate and the
birth-rate being lower in France than in Great
Britain, and the death-rate higher, the natural in
crease of population is lesa in France than iu Great
Britain. The births in France in 1859 were
1,011,787; there is no record of tho births in Ire
land, but it is estimated that the births in the
United-Kingdom amounted to nearly the same
namher; but the deaths in France were 972,556,
while the deaths In the United Kingdom were esti
mated at not exceeding 661,171, fewer deaths by
300,000, with about an equal number of births.

Already the Italian regiment, which was at Kast

Toe tono of the semi-official journals of Paris,
and good private information, lead the Paris corre
spondent of the Daily News to believo that a
quasi solution of the Roman question is at hand,
and that there will be, early in the autumn, a
mixed Italian and French.garrison in Borne, the
bnlk of the French army of occupation being with
drawn to Civita Vecchia, there to remain an indefi
nite time.
The lithographed correspondence prepared in

London Two Centuries Aao.—Tho destruction
of life, remarks the Registrar-General, iu the re
port ho has just issued, like every thing else in Lon
don, is upon a scale of grandeur; if its dead of a
single year conld he brought to life, Lhey would
people a large city. Yet the rate of mortality in
London is very different from what it was 290 years
since. In 1660 —1680, out of 100,000 persons 357
died annually from smallpox; the deaths now are
-Ay....The mortality then by fever and ague, with
Scarlatina' quinsey, and croup, was 759 ; it is now
427. A few (8) in tho 100,000 die now of dysente
ry;,then, out of the samo number, 763 die annually
of that disease; by diarrhoea, however, n milder
form of disease, 120 die now, II died then. Women
are not yet exempt from peril in child-hearing;
the •mortality is 17, but it was then 80. Consump
tion and diseases of the breathing organs were very
fatal; the deaths were 1,079; they are Oil now.
Children were rapidly cut down; of convulsions
and teething 1.175 died then, 136 now. Dropsy, a
result and sign of scurvy and fever, was exceeding
ly fatal ; 829 died then, 26 now. Scurvy and pur
pura bear testimony to the imperfect nutrition of
the population; the annual deaths in 100,000 were
142 then, and are now 2. In addition, London was
then ravaged by the terrible ‘’plague." The re
turns shoii, uu the other hand, that apoplexy, pa
ralysis, epilepsy, affections of the brain, and suicide
are more fatal now—lsl now, to 57 thou ; and of
the violent deaths some are now more frequent, as
the forces by which they are occasioned are greater.
. Poison is more accessible, fires are probably more
Common, and dresses more inflammable, but drown
ing and mifiiiootion were then twice as fatal (23 and
20) oa thej- mg i n the present day, The Registrar-
General reminds us that the diseases would revive
if the same causes came again into action. Tho
supply of food, and particularly of vegetables and
fresn meat, was defective in the winter,’ so that
a large portion of tho population became scor
butic. The houses wore nearly as close and
dirty as tho houses now are in Constantinople
and Cairo: the water supply was imperfect,
and parasitic insects and diseases of the skin bc-
tr*yed its impurity. The dirt of tho houses
struck foreigners. The sowers were defective, and
the soil gave off marsh malaria in some parts, and
in others w: s saturated with tlm filth of succesrivo
generations. One by one these evils have more or
less disappeared, and along wifli this change step
by step the health of London bus improved. The
nation, adds the Registrar General, exults justly in
the progress of its nmmiiaetiires, but it is surpassed
by the progress of the health of its capital; and fur
ther progress is in the hands of tho people. They
can work out their own salvation, with the
of Providence ; and as science succeeds in bringing
to light the causes of unnatural diseases still exist?
ing wo mny hope confidently that those diseases will
be mitigated or averted.
FRANCE.
There has been question for some lime past.,’’
Coiistitut i; of certain changes in
tttfdiplomatic corps 1 . Wc are now able to announce
them with certainty. General de Montebello is go
ing to Constantinople to compliment tho Sultan in
the name of the Emperor. Tho Marquis do Ranne
ville is appointed political director at the French
Ministry of Foreign Affairs in placoof M. Benedetto,
who goes ns ambassador to Turin. Count de Racu
lot will replace the Marquis de Baunevillo at
Munich. M. de Damremout is to replace Count de
Reculot at Stuttgurd.
The Advantage op an Imperial Acquaint
ance.—Whilst the Emperor was at Vichey he was
taking a walk on the banks of Sichon-and lost his
way. A laborer chanciug to pass ut tho time, his
Majesty made the necessary inquiry of him.
(i Second to the right ami then first to tile left,
sire,” said the man. What! you know me ?”
“Yes,” and have had the honor for years past,”
“"Where?” “ Your Majesty, of course, does not
remember me. but you were once the causo of my
passing two days in tho blank hole ; for when you
were at Hum I was a soldier there, and was punished
for passing you in a pound of tobacco.” “ Well,”
said the biupcror, “ it shall bo my turn now,” and
a few days afterwards the man was installed in a
well stocked tobacconist's shop.
The Movite.nr announces that, on account of
the nationul/efe, the Emperor has either remitted
or commuted the punishments of 1230 prisoners of
different categories, who had been condemned for
civil crimes.
The Emperor of the French is not quite a free
trader yet. it seems, lor in speaking to M. Hanss
m&n. the Prefeet of the Seine, at the inauguration
of a new boulevard, lie declared that “itis tho
duty of public administration to hare as much re
gard for these interests as possible, to infuse activity
into labor, to prolcci less-favored classes, anti lo
oppose an incrense in the price of nrticlos of the
first necessity.”
Tiik Monilcur announces a further abolition of
the vexatious and useless passport system. Bel
gium and Hollund have agreed to dispense with
this nuisance, and henceforward travellers, by
simply declaring their nationality at the frontier,
will meet with no furlber impediments to intercom
munication between France. Belgium, and Holland.
The D ehots has a masterly article from the pen
of M. "Weiss, showing up the persecution which the
French Protestants, in the Provinces, are subjected
to. They are not dragooned us under Louis XIV.,
but they are prevented, though complying with all
the legal formalities, from opening primary schools
where their children can be brought up. The State
decrees that the children of the descendants of the
glorious old Huguenots shall learn to read and
write in Catholic schools, or not at all.
The musical world in Paris is in a great state of
delight, because M. Auber has been raised to the
dignity of Grand Cross of tho Legion of Honor, lie
being the first musical composer who has ever been
decorated with the grand cordon . The scene at
the Conservatoire, when the nomination was an
nounced. was unusually animated.
Tue Unpublished Works op Rousseau.— Some
hitherto unpublished writings of J. J. Rousseau's
are about to be given to the world. It is well
known that Rousseau left numerous manuscripts
in the hands of his friend the Protestant clergy
man. Moulton, whose name occurs more than once
in the “ Confessions.” It is from these manuscripts,
now in the possession of the grandson of the gontle
man just named, that tho selection aboutto be pub
lished lias been made. It includes a correspon
dence of Rousseau with M. Moulton and the Gene
vese Coindct; a Project for a Constitution for Cor
sica; Letters on Virtue and Happiness; a Treatise
on the Sphere; a Fragment on Revelation; aFro°--
ment on Languages; two novels; a portrait of
Rousseau,"by himself; and a collection of apho
risms—a sufficiently varied and inviting list of con
tents.
Every one almost knows the story of tho Courier
de Lyon. Half the theatres of Europe have re
presented on their boards the crime, the mistaken
identity, and the execution of the unfortunate M.
Joseph Lesurques. It is now sixty-five years since
that unhappy victim of judicial error died the
death of a felon, and his familv has never been re
lieved of the stigma thus cast xpon it; the hope of
rehabitation, of formal acknowledgment of the fa
tal mistake, and of restitution to thoir rights, has
not, however, been abandoned. M. Henrvd’Audi
gier has. for the last ten years, occupied himself al
most incessantly with the subject, and has just now
published a pamphlet entitled, “ Proces d’Outre
tombe,” in which the faets arc set forth with clear
ness, and the cause of the unfortunate Lesurques
eloquently pleaded. Moreover, a gentleman named
Louis Meguillet, now nearly eighty years of age,
has, for forty years, devoted his life and fortune to
the same cause, Voltaire occupied himself in n
somewhat similar case, that of a person named Calas,
fifteen years before he succeeded, and from this M.
Audigier argues there is still hope that the judicial
stain may be wiped from the memory of Joseph
Lesurques.
PRUSSIA.
The postponement of the visit of tho King of
Prussia to the Emperor of the French is attributed
to the desire of tho Cabiuct of Berlin not to offend
the Emperor of Russia. The resignation of M. de
Sohleinitz is explained by the same reason.
Tue Great Rorrery by a Bank Messenger.—
A reward of £5,000 has been offered for the appre
hension of John William Rishnow, the messenger
who absconded with £lB,OOO from the Dusseldorf
branch of the Bank of Prussia.
Fon A number of years past Berlin wool for
Indies’ ornamental work, has been an article of ex
portation to a very large amount to the United
States—to the amount, indeed, of about £70.000 or
£BO,OOO per annum. Houses for tho sale of this
article have been established at New York by seve
ral German firms, and a good sale on the other sido
of the water is all the more necessary for tho manu
factories, inasmuch as the habit of embroidoriug
has fallen off much of late in this country- Now
the export of this kind of goods has altogether
ceased, and I know of a New York house whieh,
having employed jin many as fourteen clerks a few
months ago, is at present closed. The American
ladies have suspended their attempts to paint tho
canvas with woollen colors, and as for the clerks,
every one has entered the army .—Paris letter.
RUSSIA.
The Gazette de la Croix , of Berlin, says : Agi
tation in Russia continues. Even in the old Polish
provinces incorporated into Russia, in Lithuania,
volhvnai, and the Ukraine, demonstrations have
taken place. At Bialystock, disturbances have
broken out similar to those at Miawa, and mourn
ing is worn throughout the whole of Lithuania.
The Marquis Wiclopolski sent his son to St. Peters
burg, a few days ago, to render a verbal account to
the Emperor of the situation of Warsaw.
Tee Russian and Swedish Governments have de
clined to support the English project of a submarine
telegraph line in the Baltic and over Gothland to
Libau.
TURKEY.
The fall of the Minister of Finance is expected
very shortly. A change ha 3 been ordered in the
uniform of the military officers. Important army
reforms are in progress. The arrears of tho garri
son of the capital are about to be paid in caimes.
Accounts from Rome to the 11th inst. state that
Cardinal Anton clli has expressod his resreta to
General dc Goyon, and admitted the necessity of
henceforward treating directly with the latter.
Tee Patrie says: The roport that General
Goyon is about to leave Rome is without founda
tion.
The Perseveranza of to-day has the following
news from Rome : Cardinal Andrea, president of
the Congregation of the Index, has tendered his
resign it tion on of having declared Mgr.
Leverani’s work to be heretical without the concur
rence of the Congregation.
The Government of the King of Italy havo re
solved to hold an exhibition of art and industry at
Florence in the ensuing months of September and
October.
ITALY.
A letter from Rome, of the 10th, in th o Patrie,
states that the much-to-be-regretted conflict which
had arisen between Mgr. de Merodo and General
de Goyon is gat an end. The Pope has inflicted a
severo reprimand on his pro-minister of arms, and
has decided that all communications between the
French General-in-chief and his irascible adversary
shall henceforth take place through Cardinal Anto
nelli, so that everything has thus been arranged.
No one can be found to defend the conduot of Mgr.
de Merode; the prelacy, who regard him as a fo
reign rival, and the Sacred Collogo, who do not
deign to keep up any relations with him, have not,
for a moment, sought to sereen him, particularly as
they felt that he was in the wrong.
AUSTRALIA.
The intelligence from New Zealand is most
gloomy. Sedition is spreading among tho natives.
Tho Governor has issued a. proclamation demand
ing obedience. Heale’s Ministry has been de
feated, and has appealed to tho country!
_ The objeet of Young Now Zealand is to place a
limit to the further acquisition of land by Euro
peans, and to set up a nativo authority, treating
with the Queen’s Government as an equal. The
stand against tho alienation of estates was made by
William King; the stand fer an independent
government is made by the promoters and sup
porters of the King movement.
Cheat Railway Tkayellixg. —ln one country
only has anything like a fair experiment been
made in cheap farce. The Government of India
started from the principle that third-class fares
must he lower than the cost of walking, which, as
a native wears no shoo leather, appeared an ab
surdly low standard. It has, however, been
reached. In Bengal the regular charge is three
miles for a penny, at which rate the carriages are
filled to suffocation, and the expenses less than fifty
per cent, on the receipts, which again yield a divi
dend of upwards of thirteen per cent. This rate,
however, is still too high, and the directors of the
Bombay lino have added a fourth class, travelling
six miles for a penny. This is cheaper than walk
ing, the cost of food during the time lost being
morethan the railway fare. The rate instantly
doubled the total traffic, and though we hare not
yet seen the return of receipt?, it must show jm in
crease over increased expense of at least thirty per
cent. It is in a similar reduction, we firmly be
lieve, that tho hope of the railwav future is to bo
found. The companies have sntis'fied the middle
class without reducing their finances, and it re
mains only to content ihc people. Low fares, plen
sant accommodation, and reasonable hours', will
attract a class before whom the present race of pas
sengers will seem but an insignificant item.—Spec

Prisoners Poisoned by Ridgewood Water.
—On Tuesday ufternoon the resident physician of
the Kings county jail, Brooklyn, was informed that
about twenty prisoners hud suddenly boon Seized !
with violent vomiting and cramps. During the I
night ten more were taken down, and the following i
daj r and night every prisoner in the building was 1
sick. The physician traced the cause to the water, \
which is supplied through leaden pipes, and. test- !
ing it, found that it was filled with carbonate of I

and most of the prisoners arc doing well, although
some of the cases are still rather .desperate.

Fear for our Country.
LINES WRITTEN DURING BUCHANAN'S ADMINISTRATION,
Fear for tlie land, where to rule and to reign
Is a passion that maddens both Lofty and low;
Where the thirst for promotion, the hunger for gain,
Are fierce fires, that consume all but se/fiu their glow.
Fear for the land, where the (lenugogue sways
The miud anti the votes of the masses at will;
Win re pretension und rant win the power and the bays,
And dotards degrade the high places they fill;
Where Mammon can make and extinguish the laws,
And traitors with rulers may tamper and treat;
Where protection to freedom’s a network of gauze,
And the cant about liberty fraud and deceit;
Where bloated oppression wrangles for right,
Still tighter to gyve the down-trodden and poor;
Where the mean and milk-hearted shrink back with
affright,
Lest tyrants be urged their mad claims to abjure.
Fear for the land, where the monn and the wail
Of tho wretched seem lost in tho other on liigh:
Bf lieve not, believe not they die on the gale;
There an cor thrilling CTcr to misery’s cry.

British Interest iu the War.
[From the London Times, August 14.]
Never was thfcre a war in which the people of this
country took a greater-interest. We watch with
the utmost solicitude all the proceedings of tho bel
ligerents, and observo not only the operations of
their armies, but the manifestation of popular feel
ing, with sentiments which no other struggle could
excite. Wc can say more. Theugh it is impossible
to avoid reflecting that the division of the Union
into two great Stales may relieve vs from many
of the troubles with which- vie were menaced by
the overbearing policy of the old Federal Go
•vernmtnty we can safely assert that Englishmen
desire nothing more than to see the quarrel termi
nated and the strife appeased. We wish no harm
to either party, and would far rather see America
strong, united, and prosperous than speculate on
the advantages which its premature disruption
might ’possibly bring to its neighbors.
But when we have said this we have said ail that
the Americans are likely to hear with much satis
faction. For the rest, our conclusions arc certainly
not favorable to those institutions under which this
great catastrophe has been matured. What the
Americans call freedom, bnt what we call demo
cracy, does not show to advantage at this critical
time. The theories attributing immeasurable
superiority to republican forms of government
have all been falsified in the plainest and most
striking manner, and the last six months have
proved beyond all question that the preponderance
of popular will without check or limit is at least as
likely to hurry a nation into war and debt as the
caprice of the most absolute despot or the intrigues
of tho most selfish of aristocracies.
Wc arc not finding fault with the Northern States
for going to war. Wo have repeatedly admitted
that the Federal party could not be expected to
view the dismemberment of the Union without an
effort to avert the loss. But, though civil war is
the most frightful of all wars, the Americans
plunged into it with less concern than would have
been shown by any European State in adopting a
diplomatic quarrel. Though the people of the
South were of tho same fiesn and blood with the
people of tho North, and connected with them by a
thousand links of interest and feeling, the Northern
ers instantly heaped every conceivable opprobrium
on the heads of the Southerners.
If the reader will refer to any speech of any
Manchester orator, he will find the Government of
the United States extravagantly eulogised for the
very qualities of which it is now proved to be
utterly destitute , and the Americans exalted be
yond all other people, on account of gifts which it
is plain they never possessed. It is this, if tho
Americans wish to know the truth, which points the
remarks of Englishmen on their civil war and its
incidents: It is not that they are any worso, or
more foolish, or more intemperate, than was to bo
expected under the trials tef which they have been
exposed, but that they have been held up to our
admiration, by a certain party among us, as a peo
ple in frhoso counsels no intemperance or folly
would ever bo likely to prevail. When we see that
unlimited democracy conveys not the slightest se
curity against the worst of wars and the most reck*
lew extravagance, we may apply the moral at
heme, and congratulate ourselves that the old
■British Constitution has not been precipitately
remodelled after a Manchester design.

HAIR RESTORATIVE,

THAT HAS
STOOD THE TEST OF YEAItS,
AND CROWS MORE AND MOnE POPULAR EVERT DAT,
And testimonials, new, and almost without number,
might be given, from Indies and gentlemen in oil grade*
of society, whose uuited testimony mine could resist,
that Trof. Wood’s Hair Restorative will restore the ball
and gray, and preserve tho hair of the youth to old age,
in all its youthful bruuty \
Battle Creek, Mich., Deo. 21, ISr»s.
Prof, Wood; Thee wilt please accept a line to in
form thee that the hair on my head all fell off over
twenty years ago, caused hv a complicated ciironic dis
easu, attended with an eruption on the head. A coti
tinunl course of suffering through life having reduced
mu to a statu of dependence. I have not been able to
obtain stuff for eups, neither have I been able to do
them up, In consequence of which my head has suffered
extremely from cold. This induced me to pay Briggs &
Hodges almost the lust cunt I liud on earth for a two
dnllar boltlo of thy Hair Restorative* about tho first of
August last. 1 havo faithfully followed tho directions,
and the bald spot is now covered with hair, thick ami
black, though short; it is also coming in aU over niv
head. Feeling confident that another largo bottle would
restore it entirely nnd permanently, I feel anxious to
persevere in its use, nnd being destitute ot means to pur
chase any more, I would ask ihue if thee wouldst not ba
willing to send me au order on thino agents tor a hottJo,
and receive to thyself tho Scripture declaration—“ The
reward is to those that are hind to the widow and tho
fatherless.”
Thy friend, SUSANNAH KIRBY.
Ligoniep, Noblo Co., Indiana, Feb. 5,1859.
Prof. 0. J. Wood : Dear Sir : In thu latter part of the
year 1852, while attending the State and National Law
School oi the Statoof New York, my Jmiri from a cuuao
unknown to me, commenced fulling off very rabidly, t-o
that in the short space of six months, tho whole upper
part of my scalp was almost entirely bereft of its cover
ing, ond much of the remaining portion upon the &ido
find back part of my head nhnrtly after beramo gray; bo
Umt you will uot bo surprised wheu I tell you That, upon
my return to tho Stnto of Indiana, my more carnal nr-
Quuiutauceu were not so much at a loss to discover th®
cause of the change in my appearance, as my more inti*
mute acquaintances were, to recognize me at all.
I at once mane application to the most skilful physi
cians in tho country, hut, receiving no assurance from
them that my lmir could again bo restored, I was forced
to become reconciled to my fate, until, fortunately, in
the latter part of the year 1857, your Restorative was
recommended to me by a druggist, as being the most
reliablu Hair Restorative in use. I tried one bottle,
found to my greet gatisSociion that it was producing th®
desired effect. Since that time ( I have uae-1 seven dol
lars’ worth of your Restorative, and as-a result, have a
rich cont of very soft black hair, which no money caw
buy.
As a mark of my gratitude for you# labor and skill itk
the production of to wonderful au article, I have recom
mended its uso to many of my friends and acquaint
ances, who, I am happy to inform yon, are using it with
like effect. Very respectfully yours,
A. M. LATTA,
Attorney and Counsellor at Law.
