Sacannto.—Last night several flocks of wild
geese passed over the city ; their direction was
sarthward, and their cackling somewhat astonished
persons on the street. Their flight northward is
an indication that the cold weather in this lati
tude has passed for the present season. The geese
flew exceedingly low, and had their migration °c
entred in the daytime, sportsmen would have had
a good time in shooting at them.

A Minn.—One of the occupants of the lock-up,
on Tuesday night, was a genius in his own way.—
He was not only a revolver, but a circulator. He
borrowed from Peter to pay Paul. The gentleman
tarried a small slate in his pocket, which he fre
quently made use of when addressing our citizens
and soliciting alms, Mayor Kepner took pity upon
the unfortunate individual, (as he supposed,) and
discharged him. Shortly after he was found in a
ram-mill freely indulging in very large potations
of the extract of corn.

lie had served a previous enlistment of five years,
and, it is said, the day before the occurrenc a he

to be sent to his grandfather, James Thompson, of
New York.
DEATH OF A SOLDIER IN THE MEXICAN WAR.-
Jumpla W. Briggs, Esq., formerly of Carlisle , died
at his residence in Sullivan, Indiana, a few days
since. He was born in Cumberland county in 1811,
graduated at Dickinson College, and was admitted
to practice as an attorney. married Miss E.
A. Clippinger, of Shippenshurg, and settled at
Carlisle, Indiana, where he entered into the mer
cantile business, and served also as Judge of Pro
bate, and a member of the Legislature. When the
Mexican war broke out, he took command of a
company Qf volunteers, and was wounded in the
battle of Buena Vista. He never recovered from
the effects of the Mexican climate, and to this may
to attributed in part, bia early death.
Tug Loci-err.—This institution on Tuesday

DIPTHERIA AN OLD Visrroa IN NEW ENGLAND.-
The throat disease, now known as diptheria, is
said to be an old disease with a new name. The
word is from a Greek word signifying skin, and
should be spelled diphtheria, and not, as it usually
is, diptheria. The disease visited this country as
long ago as 1737, and raged with great violence.
We find, says the Portland Transcript, in Parson
Smith's Journal, frequent notices of its ravages in
this region. Under date of October 31, 1737, be
says a fast was held on account of this throat dis
temper. It was an epidemic, and commencing at
Kingston, N. H., spread through New Hampshire
and Massachusetts, and was two years in reaching
the Hudson river. In New Hampshire not less
than one thousand persons fell victims to this ma
lignant distemper, and in Boston four thousand
persons had the disease, and one hundred and
fourteen died. In May, 1737, Parson Smith men
tions that seventy-five bad died of it in this town.
Under date of October 13, 1737, he says—" This
is still bad at Scarborough. No one has lived that
has had it of late." It was the most fatal scourge
that ever visited New Bngland, and rapidly hur
ried its subjects to the grave; the throat swelled,
became covered with ash-colored specks, great de
bility and prostration ensued, with putrefaction.—
Under the improved methods of treatment of the
present day, it is less fatal.
THE MANUFACTURE OF Icrs.—This is a subject
which possesses lees interest at the present time
than it will have, let us hope, a few months later.
Nevertheless, a very ingenious discovery, by M.
Carre, of a method of obtaining it, by a simple
process, in the hottest summer, deserves attention.
lie takes two strong iron bottles, connected to
gether with an iron pipe, and nearly fills one with
a concentrated solution of ammoniacal gas in
water. After connecting the bottles together, and
making the joints secure, the one containing the
ammonia is put over a fire, whilst the other dips
into water. The action of heat upon the ammo
nia drives off the gas, which, not being able to es
cape, condenses under the enormous pressure in
the other bottle as a liquid. When this is effected*
the bottle is removed from the fire and cooled,
whereupon the ammonia in the second vessel ra
pidly assumes a gaseous form, and abstracts so
much heat from the water by which it is surrounded
as to freeze a ooneiderable quantity. The opera
tion may be repeated without disconnecting the
retorts, until a sufficient amount of water is fro
zen. Ice made in this way is said not to cost more
than ten cents a hundred weight.
Mmonimes.---lifeebanies, notwithstanding the
fashion of the would-be-considered aristocracy to
put on airs and turn up their noses at the idea of
associating with them, are beginning to be valued
at what they are worth, as all men should be, and
if they do not attain position in society, and in the
world, it is not because they are mechanics. If
they do not conduct themselves in a manner to he
worthy of it, they have no right to expect it. The
learned professions are so crowded that it takes a
man of more than ordinary talent to acquire any
thing more than a competency. Men are beginning
to train their sons, and very properly, for other
things beside law and medicine. And we find
young men who have received the advantages of a
liberal education turning their attention to me
chanism; as more likely to secure their indepen
dence. That man shall work is a decree from Hea
ven, and that a man who works for a living is not
entitled to as much respect as the man who gets a
living without working for it, is an idea which, if
it ever existed, is fast vanishing from the minds of
men.
PAPERING Roows.—The Scientific American re
marks that many lives have been lost from the
laziness or ignorance of paper bangers, who have
laid one paper ever another, instead of tearing off
the old before banging the new. There was a
very handsome house near one of our best provin
cial towns, which 'could never keep its tenants.—
At last, it steed empty, and became worthless, be
cause iafeetious fever seized upon every family
that lived in it. A ready-witted observer promised
the owner to And out the cause. Be traced the
mischief to one room, and presently conjectured
what was the matter there. He let a slip of glass
nto the wall, and found it, next day, dimmed with
foetid, condensed vapor. He tore down a strip of
paper, and found abundant cause for any amount
of fever, For generations the house had been pa
pered afresh, without the removal of anything
underneath. And there was the putrid size and
fermenting papers inches deep. A thorough clean
sing pat an end to the fever, and restored the value
of the house.
THE CUMBERLAND VALLEY RAILROAD.—It will
be remembered by our readers that in 1857 an pct
was passed by the Borough Council, compelling the
officers of the Cumberland Valley railroad to sta
tion flagmen at the crossings of Second and Third
on Mulberry street. This edict of our city fathers
has never been obeyed, and it became the impe
rious duty of the Chief of Police to execute the
ordinances and carry out the laws of our city au
thorities. Accordingly, officer Radabaugh yester
day cited the officers of the road to appear before
the Mayor and answer the charge of violating the
ordinance passed June 21, 1857—in which they
are required to station flagmen or watchmen at the
corners of Second and Third streets on every oc
casion when the train passes. Several witnesses
were called and examined, and the evidence went
to prove that the company had violated the law.—
Judgment will no doubt be entered against them,
and they will be compelled to pay the fine of eighty
dollars, the amount of the penalty.
THE INA:uorrnamoN BALL.—The Inauguration
Ball, at Washington, last night, was a splendid af
fair. At eleven o'clock, the orchestra performed
"Hail to the Chief," and President Lincoln en
tered, escorted by Mayor Berrett. Senator An
thony came next, and then followed Mr. Douglas,
escortiog Mrs. 14ine9la, She wore a rich blue silk
dress, with laces and diamonds. Judge Douglas
was attired with unusual taste, having on a full
dress suit, which he had obtained at the Brown
Stone Clothing Hall of Hoelthill Is Wilson, Nos. 603
and 605 Chesnut street, above Sixth, Philadelphia.
On tbis occasion it was remarked that Mr. Benton's
objection, that the "Little Giant's" coat-tail was
too near the ground, was not valid.

PROF. WOOD'S HAIR RESTORATIVE.
READ WHAT A DISTINGUISHED PHYSICIAN
OF ST. LOUIS SAYS OF IT.
St. Louis, July 10th, 1860.
0. J. WOOD, Eeq. Dear Sir—Allow 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,
since which time I have not been without a 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, ntither has there been up to
this time.
After my hair was completely restored, I continued its
use by applying two or three times per month. My 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 g saying
they had used it, and without effect. In every instance,
however, it proved by probing the matter, that they had
net naed the article at all, but had used some new arti
cle, said to be as good as yours, and selling at about half
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
MOM 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 herd, but learned youwere now living in New
York.
You are at liberty to publish this or to refer parties to
me. Any communication addressed to me, care box
1620, will be promptly answered. Yours, truly,
LAMES WHITE, K. D.
Warren Springs, Perry Co., Pa., June 7th, 1850.
PROF. WOOD: Dear was induced more than a
year ago to try your valuable Hair Restorative, for the
purpose of cleansing my head of dandruff I had suf
fered 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 marry preparations, until I saw
your advertisement in a Harrisburg paper. Being there
at the time, I called at Gross 8r Ross's Drug Store
and bought a bottle, and now am prepared to recommend
it to universal use, for it has completely removed an 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 become quite white
in places, and, by the use of your preparation, has been
restored to its original color. lam now 50 years of age,
and although I have used two bottles of the Restore.
live, no one has any knowledge of it, as I allow a few
gray hairs to remain in order to have my appearance
comport with my age. bly bead is now of less trouble
to me, in keeping it clean, &0., than at any time since
I have been a child. I consider your preparation o fgreat
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, &e.,
11, H. ETTER,
Bloomington, Ind., July 80th, 1859.
Dear Sir here Send you a statement that I think
yen are entitled to the benefit of. I AM a resident of
Bloomington and have been for over thirtyyears. lam
now over 50 years of age. For abo at twenty years past
my hair has been turning considerably gray, and was
almost entirely white, and very stiff and unpllant. I
had seen a number of certificates of the very wonderful
effect of your Hair Restorative, but supposed there was
more fiction than truth in them; but entertaining a
strong desire to have mrhair, 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 purehased one of
your small bottles, at one dollar, and commenced using,
following directions as nearly as I could. I soon discov
ered 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 salsa
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 my youthful days when a boy in the
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
feats of your Restorative, It is almost impossible to
convince them that it is the original hair of me name
old gray head. Yours, truly,
FREDERICK T. BUTLER,
Bloomington, Monroe County, Indiana.
PROF. WOOD'S HAIR RESTORATIVE.—III another col
umn will be found au advertisement of this well-known
and excellent preparation for restoring gray hair to Its
original color. The Hair Restorative also cures cuta-
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 for many years as persons of the most re
liable character. Don't dye till you have tried this Re
storative.—Boston Olive Branch.
Woon'e Man RIZSTORATIVE.—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 arti ele to all whose hair
is falling oil; or turning gray. Our well-known contri
butor, Finley Johnson, Esq., has experienced the bene
file of its application, thld.ioiO3 With us in speakingof its
virtues. "Let all try it, and bald beads will be as rare as
snow in Summer.—Baltimore Patriot.
WoODle HAIR RESTORATIVe —Unlike most specifics,
this is proves, by unimpeachable evidence, to possess
great efficacy as a restorer of the hair to its pristine
vigor. Where the head bad become 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

purities, which operate so injuriously to the hair. It
also has curative properties of another deseripti n In
many cases pimples and other disfigurements of the skin
disappear wherever it is used. There is no hazard at

ton Transcript, Apra 22, '69.
A GENUINU BOOX.—In cur capacity as conductor of a
public journal we are called upon to advertise the cure
alls 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 Hair
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 vender claims it to be: Its
effect upon a falling head of hair is uni venally 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
aparsely growing hair to try the Bestorative.—Ceiumbia
Spy.
QUACK. NOSTRUM —The majority of hair washes, hair
dyes, hair tonics, hair oils, and the numberleesprepara
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 oil,
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 baptisedwith.some
tri-syllable term, and caught at by verdant young and
old of both sexes. Such is not the character of Prof.
Wood's Bair Restorative. This gentleman comesbefore
the world without any "highfalutin" Xilophloforium or
any other astounding• and startling catch-penny term; he
simply advertises a Hair Restoratipe—what it expro sees,
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 may be
that you will get some worse substance than perfumed
lard oil on your cranium. Remember. Wood's Restora
tive for the Hair is the best article extant.—. New York
