DIAMONDS AND PABTZ.—In New York the latest
style of ornament for hair-dressing is a diamond
]air-pin, composed of a profusion of leaves and
pendants neatly set in gold. They are 'valued at
$3OO per set. There are some new styles of ladies
and gents' breastpins, valued as highly is $200.
But imitations of them, hardly distinguishable, are
made and sold at a dollar and two dollars each, to
the disgust of wealthy fashionables.
DELIGIHTFUL WlCATHER.—Everybody is charmed
with the weather of the last four days, which has
not been equalled at this season of the year within
the memory of the oldest inhabitant. Those, how
ever, who are so loud in its praise do not reflect
what it may likely lead to. Ten days more of it
would bring out buds, blossoms and flowers, which
would run a most imminent risk of perishing by
frosts in the latter part of the month. Such may
be the case, but we hope not.
SENT TO vEr. POOR Houss.—A man named Pro
basco was sent to the alms house yesterday morn
ing to recuperate. He says that getting short of
money, he left the oars at liummelstown, and
Etarted on an overland journey towards Buffalo.—
A few miles west of this place he was met by three
Irish footpads who demanded his money. Pro
basco told them he had none, whereupon the entire
party fell upon him and beat him severely with
clubs. The poor man had three gashes in his
scalp, and was injured on the foot. Unable to
travel, he made his way back and called upon the
Mayor, who kindly provided for him.
Lacruan on ran Comm.—Mr. James Worrell, of
this city, at the desire of some of our prominent
citizens, has obtained from the Speaker of the
House of Representatives permission to read from
the Speaker's, desk this evening, at 71 o'clock, a
lecture on the crisis, originally delivered by the
eminent divine, the Rev. Alexander G. Mercer, of
Boston. This oration—for oration it is—being one
of the very best efforts yet made since the crisis
began, we do not doubt, from Mr. Werrall's well
known ability, will be done ample justice to in the
delivery; and, as it is from the pen of a native
Pennsylvanian, we are sure it will be listened to
with interest by a large audience.
TEfE Ozz FEVER in Menem?. COUNTY, PA.—The
Nerves Whig, in alluding to the oil operations of
the citizens of that county, says: "As yet they
hare received no adequate return for the money
and labor expended, and we fear large numbers of
those who have gone prospecting for oil' will
never be compensated for their toil. A few, how
tier, have made a nice pile out of the business,
and this has but stimulated their less fortunate
neighbors to renewed exertions. A number of
wells have been commenced in this county, but an
yet no paying wells have been found, though oil
in small quantities bas been discovered in several
places, and the work is still progressing.
BAD Bors.—There is no town without boys, and,
u a consequence, bad ones are always to be found,
since, according to the opinion of one of 'em, "all
the good little boys we read of in Sunday school
books die when they are quite young"—but we do
think that Harrisburg can turn out more viciously
disposed and impudent boys than any place of its
size in the State.
A few days ago we had eocasion to chronicle the
Prot of two boys for an outrageous assault and
battery committed on a third boy. The cause that
led to the maltreatment of the boy is as follows :
lie was walking along the street playing with a
sun-glass, when the two boys came up to him and
took it from him. Anxious to regain his bauble,
the lad offered a certain number of marbles for its
recovery. After he got the glass back, however,
he could not recognize the justice of paying_ for
What was his own, whereupon the twe fell upon
him and beat him in a most outrageous manner.
The impositions practiced by larger boys upon
:maker ones are 9f the most infamous kind, and
there appears to be a general system of persecu
tion practiced upon boys newly arrived in town.
One gentleman informs us that his son, for weeke j
raid tribute in apples, cakes, cents, or - whatever
else he could raise, to a larger boy, merely to
avoid being whipped by him. This is downright
highway robbery, for a boy placed it bodily fear
dare not even inform his parents. Once in a while
there young candidates for the penitentiary wake
lip the wrong passenger, but the lesson is of no
avail, as they seem to be willing to risk the
alarms.
There are many parents who know nothing of
the conduct of their children, and, consequently,
their petty acts of rascality go unpunished. Pee
' 14 do not like to bring a boy within the pale of
jutiee, because it looks like a small proceeding,
and some have found to their cost that it will not
It to take the law in their own hands, since it is
/ 1411.111 1 y evident that too many parents think
their children incapable of doing wrong.
Let people adopt a firm determination either to
Punish their boys when they do wrong, or submit
to what they get f or doing 50, all a penalty for
d isobedience, but where gross and flagrant outrages
a re perpetrated by boys upon those who are physi
cally their inferiors, let the law be enforced. An

ANSWER TO A LorrEnv SHARP.—Some genius in
this city has been the recipient of one of those
magnificent lottery promises sent broadcast over
the land from Wilmington; Delaware. He makes
the following answer, which be unfortunately must
have dropped before he sealed it. A friend who
picked it up handed it to us for publication :
Ilkimszuwa, Feb. 18, 1861.
MESSRS. EGERTON & Co., Wilmington, De/aware :
Gentlemen:—Your, I must say, kind favor of the
16th inst. was received yesterday, and read with
great pleasure. Herewith find ten dollars, ($10,)
as your arrangement is perfectly satisfactory. My
heart is all in a flutter of excitement anticipating
the ss,ooo—so much so that it is with the greatest
difficulty I can write. If you had made the amount
$lO,OOO, I do not believe I could have answered
your kind favor. This is the very thing I have
been hoping for, and at last my wishes are crowned
with success. I have been wanting to buy a farm
near the city; but a want of the "ready" has com
pelled me, with evident reluctance, to postpone that
purchase; but now I shall ba able to indulge. I
shall negotiate this afternoan. My happiness,
dear Egerton & Co., will be complete in every re
spect, as I will now be able " to go in and win"
the girl of my boyish love, who has stuck to me
through all my poverty; but owing to the opposi
tion of her old folks, we have remained in single
blessedness. I will speak to the old gentleman
this afternoon, and inform him of my good fortune.
I have already informed my dearest, and she is
delighted, and says if she could only see dear old
Mr. Egerton she would kiss him for his mother.—
You wish the money shown. When I get it, gen
tlemen, it shall be heralded from one end of the
city to the other. Notice shall be given in both
Houses of the Legislature ; and then you will reap
a rich reward, as I shall use my influence among
the members to patronize your truly beneficial in
stitution. I shall not even exempt the clergy, as
such an act of kindness to the truly deserving is
unprecedented, and all classes should be informed.
I am not at all prejudiced against receiving money
in this way, dear Egerton. No, sir. Any way,
only so I get it—that is my motto. Send me a
draft on the Harrisburg Bank at sight, and I will
handle the money immediately, and show it to all
I know. I think some of having a levee in my
room, and receive all my friends—will have the
money laid out on a table in piles of $lOO each,
and will call the attention of visitors to it, at the
same time expatiating upon the merits of your
truly beneficial institution. Your name stall be
in everybody's mouth—your kindness to me and
mine shall become proverbial in this city. My
Children (if I have any) shall be learned to bless
your name, and my first boy shall be called Eger
ton & Co. On the 22d, President Lincoln is ex
pected here, and he shall be informed of my ex
traordinary luck, and will be requested to indulge
in a package of tickets in your truly beneficial in
stitution. There will be an immense crowd here
on that day, who shall lend their voices in praising
your truly beneficial institution. Egerton & Co.—
that name shall never be effaced from my memory,
but will live and thrive there like a green bay tree;
and as my age increases, so shall my love fur your
truly beneficial institution. Your kindness to me
has not been without its result already. My tailor
has informed me that he is in no hurry about his bill,
and my shoemaker insisted on taking my measure
for a new pair of boots. Unlimited credit has been
offered me in an up-town grocery, (where good
liquor is sold,) and the Young Men's Christian As
sociation have agreed to reinstate me as a member.
The young ladies, who have passed me heretefore
with silent contempt, now give me a smile of wel
come and would like to draw me on, but I am
bound to stick to Betsey Ann, as she has stuck to
me. The livery man told me this morning he had
a splendid new driving nag—do his mile inside of
2 28—and was at my service. I will take a turn
this afternoon, and as I am enjoying the cool
breeze that ever floats along the banks of the beau
tiful Susquehanna, will allow my mind to wander
to 728 King street, Wilmington, that Eldorado of
Delaware, and bless your truly beneficial institu
tion. Betsy Ann will accompany me.
Heretofore, I have been indulging in York county
sixes and R. G. whisky; but mark the change
your truly beneficial institution has made. I now
smoke the best Havana cigars, and General Wil
liams mixes my Tom and Jerry, and occasionally
a whisky punch, all owing to your truly beneficial
institution. You desired me to keep this matter
strictly private ; but, dear Egerton, imagine a man
placed in my situation. dam a man of highly nervous
and sanguine temperament, and for full half an hour
after receipt of your kind favor was speechless—
then informed Betsy Ann—and then the thing was
out. Loquacity of the female sex is proverbial,
and I could not keep it myself. But what diffe
rence will it make to you. I will have to tell it
after receiving the money, and the information
already given will facilitate matters very much.—
Dear Egerton, I will close, and await the arrival
of my draft with all the patience I can command.
Give my love to "Uncle Fuller," and believe me
Yours truly, &c.
P. S. Not having ten dollars in my possession
to enclose, you will please deduct that amount from
the $5,000, and send me draft for balance, $4,990.
Yours, &c.
LIFE IN NEW Yoax—Saturnalians Dispersed.—
On Tuesday night the police of New York made a
descent upon a puhlic hall, is which was collected
a large number of sporting men, police detectives
and abandoned females. The occasion which
brought the party together, was known as a ',Mg
canto& ball," the peculiar feature of which was,
that the male dancers were appareled in female
attire, and the latter donned the habilameztte of
their opposite sex. In the midst of the hilarity a
whisper went round the room that the police were
coming to break up the ball, Instantly a rush was
made to escape, and, in the greatest confusion, the
company made their exit. The carriages were
taken possession of without ceremony, and driven
rapidly away, many of the counterfeit women hav
ing gladly seated themselves on the box with the
drivers. This movement was not premature, as
the pollee earns up in time to arrest nine of the
offenders, whose trepidation had rendered them
helpless. Seven of the prisoners proved to be men,
although they were got up regardless of expense in
female apparel, ringlets, rouge, and everything
excepting jewelry, of which about $6,000 worth,
principally in diamonds, was distributed upon the
person of one of them. The police conducted the
whole party to the station-house, where a large
crowd had assembled to learn the cause of the ex
citement. After spending the remainder of the
night in the cells, all of them, still wearing their
ball-dresses, were taken to thi l police court, where
their appearance excited much merriment. Jus
tice Connolly exercised compassion, and, instead of
mending them to prison as vagrants, as was gener
ally expected, merely required a surety from each
of them in the sum of $5OO, to keep the peace for
six months. Two or three of them found bonds
men, but the others, not being so fortunate, were
imprisoned.
THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING.—To-day is the first
of spring. The skies are clear and bright, the air
is bland, and the vernal season seems to have oome
literally as well as almanacly. Nature appears to
be ready to spring forward revivified and disen.
thinned, and we may soon look (if Jack Frost
keeps his distance) to see the trees don their
brightest green; while masculine humanity, lay
ing aside his overcoat will seek clothing better
suited to the tempered winds. This theme natu
rally suggests to us that garments of surpassing
elegance of cut, and beauty of material, and suited
for gentlemen's or youths' wear—are kept con
stantly on hand at the Brown Stone Clothing Hall
of Rockhill & Wilson, Nos. 608 and 605 Chesnut
street, above Sixth, Philadelphia.
Tun lannwr.—By the kind permission of the
rheumatics (may it go back to plague the inven
tor) we were permitted to visit the market on Sat
urday morning for the first time for a month. We
found an abundance of everything in season, and
prices ruling in favor of the buyer to such an ex
tent that we could not but believe that we are a
favored people. Butter sold from 16 to 18 cents a
pound, and fresh eggs oould be had in abundance.
Among the new articles, we noticed that flans,
the fish dealer, had a fine supply of fresh shad. As
they are brought all the way from Norfolk, they
are not so cheap as to allow every one to indulge
in them—neither are they anything to compare to
the SiNquehanna shad, which will be in our mar
ket in a few days. Onion sprouts appeared as one
of the delicacies of the mem Yeting ladies who
are fond of perfumery bought them up with avid
ity. Meats sold at about former prices. In a word
everything was cheap and plenty.

PROF. WOOD'S HAIR RESTORATIVE
READ WHAT A DISTINGUISHED PHYSICIAN
OF ST. LOUIS SAYS OF IT.
St. Louis, July 10th, 1860.
Woon, Dsq.; Dear Sir—A.lloW me the pleasure
and satisfaction to transmit to you.the beneficial effects
of your Hair Restorative after a trial of five years. I
commenced using your Restorative in January, 1855,
sinee which time I have not been Without 5 bottle on
hand. When I commenced the use, my hair was quite
thin, and at least one-third gray. A few applications
stopped its falling, and in three weeks time there was
not a gray hair to be found, 'lather has there been up to
this time.
After my hair was completelyrestored, I continuedits
use by applying two or three times per month, lily hair
has ever continUed healthy, soft and glossy, and my scalp
perfectly free from dandruff. I do not imagine the facts
above mentioned will be of any particular advantage to
you, or even flatter your vanity at this late day, as I am
well aware they are all well known already, and even
more wonderful ones throughout the Union. I have oc
cupied my time in traveling the greater part of the time
the past three years, and have taken pride and pleasure
in recommending your Restorative and exhibiting its
effects in my own case. In several instances I have met
with people that have pronounced it a humbug ; saying
they had used it, and without effect. In every instance,
however, it proved by probing the matter, that they had
not used the article at all, but had used some OW arti
cle, said to be as good as yours, and selling at abouthalf
the price. I have noticed two or three articles myself
advertised as above, which I have no doubt are humbugs.
It is astonishing that people will patronize an article of
no reputation, when there is one at hand that has been
proved beyond a doubt.
Apparently, some of those charlatans have not brains
enough to write an advertisement, as I notice they have
copied yours, word for word in several instances,merely
inserting some other name in place of yours.
I have, within the past five years, seen and talked with
more than two thousand persons that have used your
preparation with perfect success—some for baldness,
gray hair, scald head, dandruff, and every disease the
scalp and head are subject to.
I called to see. you, personally, at your original place
of business here, but learned you were now living in New
York,
Yon are at libertyto publish this or to refer parties to
me. Any communication addressed to me, care box
1920, will be promptly answered. Yours, truly,
JAMES WHITE, M. D.
Warren Springs, Perry Co., PA, June 7th, ISM
PROP. WOOD : Dear Stir—l was induced more than a
year ago to try your valuable Hair Restorative, for the
purpose of cleansing my head of dandruff. I had enf
feeed with it upon my head foryears, and had never been
able to get anything to do me any good in removing it,
although I had tried many preparations, until I saw
your advertisement in a Harrisburg paper. Being there
at the time I called at Gross & Ross's Drug Store
and bought a bottle, and now am prepared to recommend
it to universal use, for it haa completely removed all dand
ruff from my head, and an application once in two weeks
keeps it free from any itching or other unpleasantness.—
I must also state that my hair had beCOM.e quite white
in places, and, by the use of your preparation, lute been
restored to its original color. lam now 50 years of age,
and although I have used two bottles of the Reston,-
tin, DO 9110 ISIS any knowledge of it, as I allow a few
gray hairs to remain in order to have my appearance
comport with my age. My head is now of less trouble
to me, in keeping it clean, &c., than at any time since
I have been a child. I consider your preparationofgreat
value, and although I do not like to expose myself, I
consider it my duty to say so. You can use this, or any
part of it, in any shape you think proper, if it is worth
anything to you. Yours, &c.,
H. H. ETTER.
Bloomington, Ind., July 30th, 1850.
Dear Sir here send you a statement that I think
you are entitled to the benefit of. I am a resident of
Bloomington and have been for over thirty - years. I am
now over 50 years of age. For about twenty years past
my hair has been turning considerably gray, and was
almost entirely white, and very stiff and unpliant.
had seen a number of certifieates of the very wonderful
effect of your Hair Restorative, but supposed there was
more fiction than truth in them ; bat entertaining a
strong desire to have my hair, if possible, restored to its
Original color and fineness, as it was in my younger days
a beautiful black, I concluded I would make the experi
ment, commencing in a small way. I purchased one of
your small bottles, at one dollar, and commenced using,
following directions as nearly as I could. I soon discov
exed the .dandruff removed, and my hair, that was fall
ing off in large quantities, was considerably tightened,
and a radical change taking place in the color. I have
continued to use it till I have used three of your small
bottles, and just begun on the fourth. I have now as
pretty a head of dark brown, or light black hair, as any
man, or as I had in m➢ youthful days when a boy in tie
hills of Western Virginia. My head is entirely clear of
dandruff, and the hair ceased entirely falling off, and is
as soft and fine, and feels as oily, as though it was just
from under the hands of a French shampooer. Many
of my acquaintances frequently say to me, "Butler, where
did you get that fine wig ?" I tell them it was the ef
fects of your Restorative. It is almost impossible to
convince them that it is the original hair of the same
old gray head. Yours, truly,
FREDERICK T. BUTLER,
Bloomington, Monroe County, Indiana.
PROF. WOOD'S HAIR RESTORATIVE.—III another col
umn will be found an advertisement of this well-known
and excellent preparation for restoring gray hair to its
original color. The Hair Restorative also cures cuts•
neous eruptions, and prevents the hair falling off. We
have seen many authentic testimonials in proof of these
assertions, some of which are from gentlemen whom we
have known fur many years as persons of the most re
liable chtititotAY. DoWt dye till you have tried this Re
storative.—Boston Olive Branch.
WOOD'S HAIR RESronATINE.--We are not in the habit
of puffing every new discovery, for nine cases of ten
they are quack nostrums, but we take great pleasure in
recommending Professor Wood's article to all whose hair
is falling off, or turning gray. Our well-known contri
butor, Finley Johnson, Esq., has experienced the bene
fits of its application, and joins with us in speaking of its
virtues. Let all try it, and bald heads will be as rare as
snow in Summer.—Baltimore Patriot.
WOOD'S HAIR HESTORATIVB —Unlike most specifics,
this is proved, by unimpeachable evidence, to possess
great efficacy as a restorer of the hair to its pristine
vigor. Where the head hadbecome almost bald because
of sickness, the use of this article has produced a beau
tiful growth of thick, glossy hair. It is therefore a val
uable preparation for all classes. Its ingredients are
such mato effectually eradicate dandruff and other im.
purities, which operate so injuriously to the hair. It
also has curative properties of another description In
many cases pimples and other disfigurements of the skin
disappear wherever it is used. There is no hazard at
taching to the trial of this remedy, and its effects can
only be beneficial, as the compound, if it does not cause
a manifest improvement, is incapable of doing harm, as
its component elements are perfectly innoxious.—Bos
sor, Trartuript, Arra 22 ) '59.
A GENUINE Boox.—ln our capacity as conductor of a
public journal we are called upon to advertise the cure
ails of the day, each of which claims to be unadultera
ted in its composition and infallible in its curative ef
fects—with what justice we leave our readers to deter
mine. In one instance, however—Prof. Wood's flair
Restorative—we are so well assured of the notable
qualities of the article that we give it our endorsement
as all that its inventor and Tender claims it to be. Its
effect upon a falling head of hair is univen3ally known to
be magical; like lime or guano on exhausted land, it
brings its crop wherever applied. Our own thatch is
fortunately healthy, but we advise our friends with
sparsely growing hair to trythe Restorative.—Columbia
Spy.
QUACK NOSTRUM —The majority of hair washes, hair
dyes, hair tonics, hair oils, and the numberlessprepara
tions which are now before the public under such ex
travagant, hyperbolical and fantastic titles as we see
paraded in show windows and newspaper headings as
hair preparations, are all humbugs of the first water;
their real merit, when they possess any, is, that they do
no harm. Hog's lard, whale oil, lard oil, sweet ail,
scented and colored, make up, when in beautiful. wrap_
pers, and white flint glass bottles, the costliest Character
of tonics, and when thus costly, are baptised with some
tri•syllable tern?, and caught at by verdant
Yvan and
old of both sexes. Such is not the character of Prof.
Wood's Hair Restorative. This gentleman comes before
the world without any "highfalutin" Xilophloforium or
any other astounding and startling catch-penny term ; he
simply advertises a _Hair Rostaratiee—what it expresses,
precisely—and as a Restorative it acts. Buy Professor
Wood's Hair Restorative, and as you value your scalp,
aye, your very brains, apply nothing else ; for it maybe
that you will get some worse substance than perfumed
lard oil on your cranium. Remember, Wood's Restore
tige for the Hair is the beet article extant.—New York
Day Book.
