Mr. Melsrinc offered a resolution authorizing the

except ten, now in Logan Square, the money to be paid

cost the city about 560 per month.
Mr. Cry LEE stated that the Chief Engineer of the
Water Works was very anxious to have some of them
removed to FRITIIIOIIId Park. This was the design of
the Committee on City Property. The subject of ci deer"
was debated at length among the members, and the
re,olution u as dually referred back to the Committee on
City Property.
Mr. FORD, from the Committee to verify the cash
accounts of the City Treasurer, reported the state of the
books on the 2d inst. as follows
City fund
Trust fund 33,632 43
The Committee on Stationery reported a resolution
making certain transfers in the appropriation of the
clerks of Councils, in order that a fund might be created
to pay the expenses of fitting up the chambers during
the summer recess of Councils. This caused a brief
debate.
Several of the members thought the expenditure,
Uhich WAS $1,500, entirely too extz aTagant. They Were
also dial - lewd with the stlle in which the Common
branch LA been fittek4
Tar matter was finally postponed in order to allow the
committee time to inquire into the correctness of the
hills, &e.
2,1 x. Gmcono, from the special committee on supply
ing the volunteers, reported back the bill making an ap
propriation for the paying of the rent of Jones' Hotel,

bc• referred to the Committee on Defence.
.lengthy debate followed, and the matter was finally
referred to the Committee on Defence.
nee AM" offered an ordinance that the Receiver
of 'Taxes be authorized to receive city warrants in pay
ment for taxes.
Mr. DuATTON moved to refer it to the Committee on
Finance.
Mr. MEG AltY wished to know if the city of Philadel
phia intended to deal honestly with her employees. -- If
the system contemplated in thooedltutnee Was Adopted,
He would 1300t1 be clear of the heavy list of delinquent
tax-payers.
Mr. WEINER= was glad this ordinance had been in
troduced. It was a plain practical question to decide.
The $750,000 of outstanding warrants would be realized
in 60 days. It was disgraceful to the city that there Were
pa many nnystal warrants. If this ordinance was pissed
wairants would be at a discount only of two or three
per cent. instead of eleven. In that way they would
benefit the poor man.
Mr. NEAL thought the passage of this ordinance would
benefit the rich man, for, 111 order to pay his taxes, he
ould buy tip the warrants at a discount.
Mr. liusnroun said this WAS a matter of great im
portance, and, if passed, would do a great injuAlee to
those who ]tad paid their warrants. Ile did not thinle
this would benefit the poor man in the least, as it was
the capitalist who had the taxes to pay. The matter
thould be referred to the Finance Committee, who might
deliberate on it, and report to the chamber.
Mr. RILEY said the adoption of this ordinance must
benefit the rich man, as the warrants held by the poor
bad already been sold, and bought in by the capitalists..
llfn Itlmialti again urged the fiaenitie of the ordi
nance, and called for the Secs and nays on the motion to
refer.
They were as follows:
YEAS—Messrs. Bradford, Cuyler, Davis, Dickson,
Drayton, Ford, Fox, Mclntyre, MeMakin, Neal, Riley,
and BURN
I.iierec-71.1c, , re, Deusherrn Dittgary, Wallace, and
I,Vetherill-4.
The ordinance was then referred to the Committee on
Finance.
Mr. BOA DFORD presented the report of tIM Committee
on the Observance of the Anniversary of the Signing of
the Constitution, and with an ordinance annexed, appro
priating $99.66 to pal• expenses.
On motion postponed, and ordered to be printed. •
The Committee on Defence gild Protection reported an
ordinance that, as the Governor had prohibited enlist
ments of Pennsylvanians in regiments of other States,
that no relief 'would be extended by Shem to the families
of those who enlisted in any regiment not authorized by
the Governor after the approval of the ordinance. -
Adopted.
A resolution was read, instructing the Committee on
Law to inquire and report whether the city officers re
quired to furnish bond have done so.
Mr. Cryt.Ex: stated that the City Solicitor had notified
him that such bowls had been filed.
The resolution was adopted.
Adjourned.
COMMON COUNCIL
Mr. STN. P. flacisru resigned his seat in Council at
the hoainnina of the session, owinu to the assumption of
another public position at the U. S. Arsenal. Mr. An
drew Miller took occasion to make a speech, thanking
Mr. Hacker for his uniform. courteous, and attentive
disposition. Dtr. 'Hacker's resignation was entered upon
the journal.
JAS. hiellEsnr, Esq., was then formally thanked by
special committee for hid gift 9f a cannot to the City.
The sum of 1t2,01:10 was then wed to the Board of
health. An ordinance was introduced for the building,
of a new culvert upon Reed street, Eleventh street, anti
adjoining streets, in the lower section of the city. Re
ferred.
Mr. HARPER. of the Finance Committee, reported an
ordinance to Pay S=o.Bo for collecting ballot boxes. The
mule n Do passed.
The Highway Committee asked for a transfer of *0;01.19
from a certain appropriation.
The Committee on Wharves and Landings reported in
favor of a reduction of rents upon four of the city
wharves, : Coates street, Green street, Noble street,
and Callowhill street. They recommended no reductiOn
of rents of any other Delaware wharves, but proposed
a reduction of 25 per cent. on the tour wharves men
tioned.
DIEGAntLts offered a proviso, that the lessee..
accept an extension of k ti<r of two year,:, a* the preaunt
lee , o would expire in March next.
Mr. A. MILLEn opposed the reduction, on the ground
that the times might improve within the two years, and
the city, therefore '
might realize its due rent. The wharf
holders would not have come forward to offer the city
improved rent had the times improved- Neither have
they warrant to ask for decrease of rent because the
trade of the times hes waned. They had given bond for
certain moneys, and should be made to pay them.
Mr. POT ran sustained Mr. Miller. By taking the pro
posed action, the city property would be made cheap.
The bond of the leases expressed no such contingency as
slack trade, and, as in private lessees, it would be absurd
to ask a reduction, far more so with the municipality
that had now assumed greater responsibilities than ever
Mr. Cassia- malataiara that contracts made by
with the city should be scrupulously exacted.
The amendment was lost, and, after some remarks by
3.1 r. Freeman, antagonistic to the resolution, the same
a as likewise lost.
The piaci, of voting in the Eighth ward, Third pre
cinct, wee changed to 241 South Broad street. The poll
of the Twenty-third ward, Seventh precinct, was al;o
changed to the house of Robert Thornton, Frankford
Wert. •
Council now rffolved itself into Committee of the
11. - 120le, and took the survey bill into consideration.
Several unimportant matters from Select Council were
concurred in, and the Chamber then adjourned.-
THE CATHEDRAL ON LOGAN SQUARE.—The
Cathedral on Logan Square is the largest, and incompa
rably the most beautiful structure of its class in the
United States. The Catholic Cathedral at Montre4
which. has for years been considered the finest, in an
architechwal sense, upon this continent, has at last
found a rival in the skill, taste, and enterprise of the
Catholics of our city.
The Cathedral of St. Peter and St. Paul is now, we be
lieve, in the fifteenth year of its age, and each passing
year has witnessed some addition to its adornment stud
Completion.
The exterior of the dome has been covered with the
Lest XX tin, and sanded and painted to correspond with
the brown stone of the main edifice. Its dimensions are
as follows:
The base of dome commences one hundred and five
feet five inches above pavement ; its greatest diameter is
eeventy-one feet. The base of the pedestal over the
dome is one hundred and sixty-ono feet eight inches
high. The total height to the top of the cross is two
hundred and nine feet. The diameter of the ball under
the cross is six feet eight inches.
In the interior the diameter is fifty-one feet, and the
height from the church pavement to the top of the dome
id . one hundred and fifty-six feet eight inches. The Co
rinthian ordonnanee within the drum is thirty-three feet
nix inches high, and the light will be admitted through
twelve aindows placed between the pilasters.
The glaziers were yesterday at work,- fitting in the
glass of the arched windows surrounding the base of the
dome, by means of which the whole interior of the church
still be lighted. The roof has .also been painted and
sanded, acid all the scaffolding, which formerly environed
and disfigured the sacred edifice, has been removed.
As to the ceiling of the interior of the church—the
nave, transepta, apsie ' and pendentive domes in the
Bide aisle s have been lathed, and have received their se
cond coat of plaster.
It is a si)lllC% hat remarkable fact that almost simulta
neously with the completion of a cathedral on this conti
nent by our Catholic fellow-citizens, which shall stand for
ages the pride of American architectuie, a similar event
e now being consummated in the. Old World. The Ca
hedral of Cologne, which had been building for upwards
of half a century, is now so nearly finished that the
graditional boquet," with which masons mark the
completion of their work, has been placed upon it.
Amin'Ar. Of A SCUOONEs. DAMAGED Br Tll5
Eso.s&T STOWS— nu: sehooun•r- Jersey 111ue, Captain
A. M. Loveland, wa.l yesterday morning placed on the
dry dock for repairs at Simpson & shipyard. This
vessel was chartered by the Govertunent at the com
mencement of our present difficulties, and was used as a
transport from New York to Washington. The schooner
ts at considerably damaged during the heavy storm on
Thursday 1.4. Sine encountered the storm off Chill C
o- on the Virginia coast, and at the time hail on
hoard a valuable cargo of Government supplies_ Tine
vessel sprung aleck, and the water came in rapidly, but
by hard working of the pumps she Managed to get into
Cape Ilenlopmi, where she was beached. By the time
she got to Cape llenlopen she contained about six feet of
water. A portion of her cargo was damaged, but,
through the energy and activity of Captain Loveland,
most of it was enrol The vessel arrived at Simpson do
lOM's at a lute hour on Wednesday night. Captain
Loveland reports the storm at one of the moat terrific
that have occurred on the coast since his time.
As soon as the Captain got safe into Cape Ileniopen he
telegraphed his condition to New York, and received the
necessary assistance as soon 11.5 possible. Before this,
lam ever, his vessel was boarded by a number of the re
rldento of Lewistown, Delaware, who wished to purchase
/both his carg o and vessel for 03,000. Although every
thing was now secure, yet these parties also telegraphed
to New York that the vessel and her cargo had been ren
dered IA orthless from the effects of having encountered a
ses ere gale. This was done in order to make a purchase,
ht u Well they could have realized a considerable sum.
All offers .1 sale were refused, and the cargo was finally
placed on hoard the Albany, another schooner its the Om..
-ploy of the Government, and nut back to NOW York.
The Jersey Mee loss been brought up to this city. She
is considerably strained, but will be ready for service in a
very short time.
While Capt. Loveland Nva.. at Cape Ifenlopen he re
ceived valuable assistance and advice from Mr. West,
agent of the underwriters, al:, from Mr. Morris, who has
charge of the surf-boat, and the telegrixph operator at
I,E wistown. These gentlemen lest him great aid in say
higpis cargo from damage by Water, after the vessel had
been beached. Captain Loveland, although it young
man, is an experienced sailor, and much respectrd by all
vim hate his acituaintace.
Tilt NEW EDIFICE FOR TicEßeit Or THE
COrliseNri—The Protestant Episcopal Church of th,,
Covenant. in Filbert street, west of Seventeenth, is al
most finished. The congregation, which, for menthe
- past, had been holding Divine service at Concert Hall,
now worship in the basement of the new structure.
The church was commenced in April last, the archi
tects being Messrs. Sidney do Merry, of this city. It is
boat in the Norman style, ,1 Twinted row worts, all the
Stone employed being obtained from the Lleperville
(Montgomery county) Quarries. The dressings, sills,
tvc., though not from the same (Marries, are from the
game locality. The roof is of slate, neatly and compact
ly laid.
The dimensions of the edifice are as follows: Depth
los feet, width 73 feet, and extreme elevation 76 feet.
Meeides n if cture-room, 68 by 65 feet, there are four large
class-rooms and a rector's room. The ceiling of the
church is 35 feet 6 inches from the floor, and divhlel by
three
The building will be heated by four of Andrews Sc
Dixun'a furnacep, and a proper ventilation secured by
two of Griffith it Bolton's patent ventilators. The in
terior will be illuminated by twenty chandeliers, which
nre to depend from the ceiling just abpv,e •tho side
aisles. The galleries extend entirely along Loth the side
end rear wall,
There are throe
doors of entrance, and four
EttlireflePli leading k the gallerke, time precVuting 111 l
confugion in making invogg or (Tram. The front on
rilbc rt street will he enclosed with nn iron railing, haring
a gate for each eutrance door.
It is expected that the entire church will be completed
by the 21ali of December. It will then sent one thousand
persons. it will cost about $21,000. The ceiling and
side walls are now being plastered.
THE FIFTII BAPTIST CM:RCM—The work
upon the Lnildine. °meted by the Fifth Baptist Congro •
gotion, at the corner of Eighteenth and Spring Garden
is not yet finished, though 'under root The Con
gstrielTgattsion attended Sabbath worship in the chapel, which
was dedicated and opened for religious services in No
vember last, and is capable of seating about four hundred
persons. The Sunday-school attached to the church is
in a very flourishing condition, large accessions of child
ren from about the neighborhood having been made since
its opening. The main building of the church is about
SO feet wide by 100 feet deep, and the chapel, 40 by SO
feet. The seuvral style of architecture is the old Eng•
lieb, which gives R fine, tasteful appearance to the strew
tore. When completed, it is the design of the builder to
erect a tower, 100 feet high, surmounted by a spire, on
the south end corner. The old building, formerly used
by the congregation, situated on Sansom street, above
Eighth, will be sold at the first favorable opportunity,
and the proceeds applied to the completion of the new
edifice.
The congregation hare been without a pastor since
May last, the Rev. Mr. Winston having gone South
about that tune, for the purpose of recruiting his health.
He has not since returned, and it is believed intends to
remain permanently in Riclunond, Va., where he now
resides.
A meeting of the trustees of the church was held on
last Monday evening, when it was resolved to extend a
call to the Rev. James IL SiMlllOllO, of Indianapolis, Ind.
It is gall, probable that the reverend gentleman will ac
cept the pastoral charge, and enter immediately upon the
performance of the duties appertaining thereto.
The main audience-room of the church, intended to
be used for Sabbath derotions, will contain 200 pews,
with a capacity of seating about 1,000 persons. Some
months will yet elapse before it is ready for occupancy.
MEMO
ORDERS FOR TUE UNION OF SKELETON REGI.
DlEZlTM—lntimation from Harrisburg makes it probable
that a summary order for the combination of skeleton
regiments and companies, will at once be issued. The
Governor's organ, of that town, states in its last isme :
"We need men ! The country wants the services of
all its citizens, without regard to the position any single
individual may desire to occupy, or the honor and profit
men hope to derive from this struggle. Impressed with
there facts, and doubtless appreciating morn AMY the
crisis In which we are involved, on account of their rack-
Mies for deriving knowledge, the State authorities are
constrained to appeal to the people, and urge them at
Once to such organizations as will enable them to be sent
forward, without delay, to the scene of action. The mere
preference for a captain, the anxiety of a colonel for his
commission, or the steady persistence of a brigadier to
retain his power and emoluments, must not be permitted
to impede the military organization of the State; nor dare
Governor Curtin longer refuse to collect the men who
are scattered over the State, organize them into regi
ments or brigades, and see that they are promptly put on
the march. .No regiment will be allowed to leave the
State unless competently officered, and no captain or
lieutenant will be commissioned by the Governor, unless
such officers have ability to command and valor to lead.
When this is established, Pennsylvania will have a force
in the field superior to any other State in the Union."
Pumprays.—The pumpkin crop is as large
as usnal this year, and the fruit already appears iu mar
ket. The field pumpkin is supposed to have originated
on Nantucket island, whither the Indians brought the
seed and planted it in their fields of Indian corn. It now
grows in inset of the Stales, and its vines are trailed
through all our Pennsylvania farms. The great pump
kin of the Valparaiso was liaroductal into that section by
Commodore Porter, of the United States navy. All
varieties of the gourd, the squash and the pumpkin,
have a common origin, and - they are therefore said to by
bridate readily. They make the cheapest of pies, and
the following is said to be a good teceipt therefor:
Take a teacupful of grated pumpkins, one pint of good
milk, one egg, a little salt, two large spoonful of sugar,
cinnamon, spice, or nutmeg. Line the tinand bake until
done. The remainder of the pumpkin can be cleaned out
and kept in a cool pantry for several days, and new pies
baked each day with little trouble.
THE MANUFACTURE OF SHODDT.—The shod
dy mills, of which some fifty are in operation in the city
Mid suburbs ' are now running, for the most part, day and
night. Woolleti rags are worth 65 and 610 per ton for
making shoddy cloth. Fine black scraps are worth $lOO
to $l5O per ton. The shOddy manufacturer passes them
through a rag machine, which tears the rage to wool, and
cleanses it of dust. When reduced to soft wool, the shod
dy is saturated with oil or milk, and mixed with new
wool in as largo proportions as possible. White shoddy
is used in blankets and light colored goods, and the dark
descriptions for coarse cloth, carpets ' &e. The shoddy is
the product of soft woollens, hut the hard or black cloths,
when treated in a similar manner, produce mango, which
is used extensively in superfine cloths, which have a finish
that may deceive a good judge. It is used largely in felt
ed fabrics. Shoddy in the cloth of a coat will soon rub
out of the cloth, and accumulate between it and the li
ning.
THE CILAVIPR AT THE NAVY YA.R.D.—The
subject of the extension of the navy yard has revived the
agitation relative to its removal to some point below the
city. Point Breeze and League Islam), and even some
point adjacent to the Lazaretto, have been mentioned as
free from the usual blockade of ice, and in the broad,
open river, where naval business will not be subject to
constant interruption. It is needless to say that the
sdamle is not at this time feasible. It id not; at this
period that the enormous expense of building a new naval
station nmst be commenced, for an extension of the old
yard will accommodate the increased business of the port.
Besides, the workmen in the navy yard are residents of
the city, and could not travel so far below the town.
o SAtr.—Yestrdety at noon the schooner
Alice, confiscated as the property of parties in North
Carolina, was to have been sold at public sale by the
United States marshal. A small crowd gathered at
Catharine-street wharf, where the vessel lay, but .the
bidding was not animated. The highest bid made was
merely five dollars, but as thin would not pay the expense
of viquirfa t ro, aavertiohe the teasel was withdrawn
by the marshal.
DESCENT ON A GAMBLING HOUSE.-011 Wed
nesday afternoon, a force of men headed by Lieutenant
Samuel Golds, made a descent on a gambling house, at
the corner of Hurst and Lombard streets, kept by a co
lored man nana'd George Fisher, and arrested the pro.
prietor ' and lire men who were in the building at the
time. They also arrested George Smith, another colored
man, on a charge of selling lottery policies. The par
ties were all committed by Alderman 31cCithen.
AeclDENrs.—Bernard Clark, aged 14 years,
was run over, yesterday afternoon, by a car at Third and
Washington streets, and was severely injured_ lie was
conveyed to the hospital.
ennd, MOWN dine, aged 4 years, was run over, last
evening, by the ears at the Rising Sun Village, and in
stantly killed.
FALL OP A SCAFFOLD.—Last evenhig, about
six o'clock, the cornice of the new school house in course
of erection in Howard street, above Diamond, fell on the
scaffold, causing the latter to come to the ground with a
tremendous crash. Four workmen Wore on the scaffold
at the time, and were seriously injured.
PENNSYLVANIA'S FIFTIETH REGIMENT.—The
regiment- that left Harrisburg for the war on Tuesday.,
was the Fiftieth Pennsylvania, and not the Fifteenth as
stated in the New York papers. This State has now sent
ont, in her own and other State organizations, about
sixty thousilisl men. There are as many more willing
to no.
DEPARTURE OF REGIMENTS.—CoI. Chor
niamees regiment of Mounted nines, 1,200 men, and Col.
Hush's Light Cavalry, were to have left for Washington
last evening; likewise Col. Gosline's regiment of Zonaves.
Chormann's regiment took 900 horses with them.
PENNSYLVANIA IRON MILLS.—The Cambria
works, at. Johnstown, have been making railroad iron
with full bands all the summer. The Montour Works, at
Danville, resumed operations last week. The Phoenix
ville mills are working at heavy orders for cannon.
A NEW bridge is being erected over the
Schuylkill, at Norristown. It will be finished early in
November.
PRIZE6.—The schooner Harmony, of Nova
Seutia, and the bark Xeaeo, of Rio, have arrived at this
port; with prize crews and cargoes.
LEGAL INTELLIGENCE.
OYER. AND TERMESTER—JuageS Ludlow and
Allison.—The jury in the case of William Cormerly,
charged with the tutuder of Abraham Hayes, yesterday
morning returned a verdict of guilty of murder in the
second degree.
The case of Moses Boyd, charged with the murder of
Godfrey Rock, on the 14th of May last, came up yester
day morning. It will be recollected that the deceased
and the prisoner were both members of Col. Einstelleti
regiment, the one belonging to a company of Irishmen
and the other to a company of Germans. Rock was
murdered in Callowhill street, near Front, and there
was evidence before the coroner that the prisoner bor
rowed the knife the afternoon before the murder, at the
same time declaring his intention to kill a Dutchman.
After the murder the knife was returned to its owner,
and ehen arrested, Boyd denied all knowledge of the
knife, and endeavored to fix the erimaupon a companion.
Most of the witnesses in the ease are soldiers, and yes
terday morning, when the case was called for trial, it was
discovered that none of the witnesses for the Common
wealth were nresent.
Air. O'Brien said that he had made every effort to se
cure the attendance of witnesses, but without success.
Two witnesses, who were kept in custody for some time
after the commission of the offence, were released upon
their promise to be in attendance when required. Within
a few days it had been ascertained that these men had
enlisted in some unknown regiment. Under all these
circumstances the Commonwealth would have to ask a
postponement.
Dlr. Parsons, who appeared for the prisoner, opposed
any continuance of the case. At great trouble the de
fendant had succeeded in getting all his witnesses—who
were soldiers—here frolil Washington, and there was no
reason why the Commonwealth should not have done the
acme thing. If the case went over until the next term
the prisoner's witnesses might be slain in battle, or the
commanding officer might refuse to allow them to leave
their regiments, on the ground that they have been once
before the court.
Mr. O'Brien :weed that on Saturday, the last day or
the term, the prisoner should bc discharged upon enter
ing his own recognizance.
The Court of Common Pleas, Judge Thompson, was
engaged with the insolvent list.
In the United States District Court a number of bills
of indictment against the pirates of the Petrel were pre
sented.

HAIR RESTORATIVE.
THE ONLY PREPARATION
THAT RAS
ST.pOD THE TEST OF YEARS,
AND GROWS MORE AHD MORE POPULAR EVERY DAY,
And testimonials, new, and almost without number,
might be given, from ladies and gentlemen in all grades
of society, whose united testimony none could resist,
that Prof. Wood's Hair Restorative will restore the bald
and gray, and preserve the hair of the youth to old ago,
in all its youthful beauty !
BATTLE CREEK, Mich., Dec. 21, 1855.
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 by a complicated chronic dis
ease, attended with..an eruption on the head. A con
tinual COMO of suffering through life having reduced
me to a state of dependence. I have not been able to
obtain stuff for saps, 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 last cent I had on earth for a two
dollar bottle of thy Hair Restorative about the first of
August last. I have faithfully followed the directions,
and the bald spot is now covered with hair, thick and
black, though short i it is also coming in all over my
head. Feeling confident that another large bottle would
restore it entirely and permanently, I feel anxious to
persevere in its use, and being destitute of means to pur.
chase any more, I would ask thee if thee wouldst not be
willing to send me an order on thine agents for a bottle,
and receive to thyself the Scripture declaration- 6 i The
reward is to those that are kind to the widow and the
fatherless."
Thy friend. SUSANNAH KIRBY.
LIGONIER, Noble Co., Indiana, Feb. 5, 1859.
Pnor. 0. J. WOOD: Dear Sir: In the latter part of the
year 1852, while attending the State and National Law
School of the State of New York, my hair, from a cause
unknown to me, commenced falling off very rapidly, so
that in the short space of six months, the whole upper
part of my scalp was almost entirely bereft of its cover
ing, and much of the remaining portion upon the aide
and hack part of my head shortly after became gray ; so
that you will not be surprised when I tell you that, upon
my return to the State of Indiana, my more casual ac
quaintances were not so much at a loss to discover the
cause of the change in my appearance, as my more inti
mate acquaintances were to recognize me at all.
I at once ?HMO application to tee moat skilful physi
cians in the country, but, receiving no nourence from
them that my hair could again be 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
reliable Hair Restorative in use. I tried one bottle, and
found to my great satisfaction that it was producing the
desired effect. Since that time I have used seven dol.
laps , worth of yetie Restorative, and as a result, have a
rich coat of very soft black hair, which no money can
buy.
As a mark of my gratitude for your labor and skill in
the production of so wonderful an article, I have recom
mended its use to many of my friends and acquaint•
ances, ♦rho, I am happy to inform you, are using it with
like effect. Very respectfully yours,
A. M. LATTA,
