InPnovEnafirs.--Among the other improvements
going on in the city is the elevation of the Dis
trict Attorney's office, All these little works of
improvement benefit the working classes, and fur
nish food to the hungry.
ONE of the detectives in Washington city has
seized a lot of counterfeit money, which amounts
in the aggregate to $200,000; a number of plates,
dies for counterfeiting gold and silver coin, etc.,
were also discovered.
Thus says somebody : "The height of polite
ness is passing round on the opposite side o f the
lady, when walking with her, in order to avoid
stepping upon her shadow." But we think they
beat it out West, where, when a lady sneezes, the
company give three cheers.
A SLIGHT llhsrewe.—lt was Ben Boyer, and not
Bowman, who figured in the police arrangements
on Monday. Boyer is an oyster dealer and circa
lates through town with a team, whilst Bowman
only deals in the article when he visits a saloon,
where he calls for "fried, roasted or stewed."
POCKET BOOK Fon - sD.—Mr. Haas, the Editor of
the Lazazater and Harrieburg Democrat, found a
pocket book, a night or two since, which has been
left at the Mayor's office. The book contains a
number of valuable papers, but only to the owner,
who can obtain them by calling at the Mayor's
office.
CAN 4 Orrzt.—The Susquehanna and Tide Wa
ter canals between York and Havre de Grace, Md.,
are now open, and navigation on them has been
resumed. The water was let into them on the 17th
inst., and the packet boats for the convenience of
the lumber men and river men commenced running
forthwith. No laden ed boats have yet passed
through, but we learn that several are now loading
and willstart soon.
Wen.—We meet a great many men in the course
of our travels who are strongly in favor of settling
our national difficulties at the-point of the bayonet,
but we hsvn't met any of this class who have vol
unteered their services, or are willing to shoulder
a "mush stick" and fight the enemy. There is some
difference between a bar-room conversation, enjoy
ing a hot whisky punch, and going to war, locating
in a tent, and feeding on pork and beans.
THE MAYOR TURNED CORSTABLE.—SinCe the
Chief of Police has been confined to his bed, Mayor
Kepner has been acting on his own hook. On
Monday night be made a descent on a party at the
corner of Third and Walnut streets, and captured
one of the smokes, necked him, and entertained
him for a time in the lock-up. As the dark was
good at laughing, and having proved that he was
a mere spectator, the Mayor discharged him.
PLltamraro.—lt will be seen by the advertisement
in another column that Mr. Wm. Parkhill has re
moved his plumbing and brass foundry from Mar
ket street to Fourth street, above Market, and di
-redly opposite the Bethel Church. Mr. Parkhill
is one of the best mechanics in this line of business
in the city, and as many of our citizens contem
plate erecting new buildings the ensuing summer,
we would recommend them to engage his services.
SPRING Goons.—Glover, the energetic, enterpri
sing and industrious tailor, has just returned from
the East with a choice lot of materials. The cloths,
eassimeres and vestings are of a superior quality.
The ability of Glover to cat, and his journeymen
to make, has never been questioned. So that all
who may want a good fit should give him a call.—
The store is located in Market near Third street.
See advertisement.
Paounssusu.—The engineers of the Atlantic
and Great Western Railioad commenced operations
last week between Meadville and the Ohio line.—
The work from the junction with the Sunbury and
Erie road and on the western end will be com
menced at the same time. The survey for a branch
road from Meadville to Franklin, about - 30 miles,
is• to be commenced forthwith. It is also under
stood to be the purpose of the Pittsburg and Erie
road to build a branch to Franklin.
A Facr.—All seasons are good for advertising,
and particularly now. The dull times are as good
as any for the advertiser, for what is going on they
get; and while others are grumbling they pay
their way, and, with a newspaper as a life-pre
server, swim on the top of the waters, while others
around them are sinking. Advertising is the sun
shine of business. A man makes but little out of
this world naleas he lets people know he is in it.
You will discover, after several minutes reflection,
that that's so.
OUT OP JAlL.—Frederick Keeney, who has been
confined in jail for some time, on the charge of
shooting a boy named Leak, was released yester
day. It appears that Keeney was playing with a
gun, and not knowing that it was loaded, became
careless, and through the foolishness of the party,
the gun exploded. Keeney was committed by Es
quire Hummel, of Hummelstown, and bail being
entered yesterdsiy, he was again permitted to snuff
the fresh air.
TAM FEDERAL APPOINTMENTS L' PHILADELPHIA•
Mr. Lincoln keeps the politicians in a perfect fever
of suspense, respecting his appointments in Phila
delphia. The applicants for places are legion, and
queer reasons are urged why some of them should
obtain the places they seek. In one instance it
Was impressed upon the President that a certain
Party should have a fat berth because his moral
character was unblemished, and he looked like a
gentleman. "In that case," replied Mr. Lincoln,
"he must habitually wear garments made at the
Brown Stone Clothing Hall of Rockhill & Wilson,
Nos. 603 and 605 Chesnut street, above Biz%
Philadelphia." It is evident that this famous es-
tabliehment has a national reputation.
A Muarrsa of the traduce of the. Pennsylvania
Female College, called for the purpose of taking
such action as might be deemed proper by reason
of the death of Rev. Beverly R. Waugh, Principal
of the College, was held on Monday, the 25th inst.,
at 3 o'clock p. tn. Hamilton Alrieks, Esq., Vice
President, in the Chair.
After the object of the meeting had been stated
by the presiding officer, on motion, R. A. Lumber
ton, A. 0 Hiester, .1. H. Berryhill, Wm. Dock and
E. M. Pollock were appointed a committee to re
port appropriate resolutions. Whereupon the com
mittee reported the following preamble and reso
lutions; which, on motion of A. B. Hamilton and
Major M'Glauchlin, were unanimously adopted :
WHEREAS, We have learned with sorrow of the
death of our friend, the Rev. Beverly R. Waugh,
Principal of the Pennsylvania Female College at
Harrisburg, and as it is becoming that we should
give expression to the loss thus sustained by our
College and our community ; therefore,
Resolved 1. That by the decease of its Principal
the College has been deprived of one who, in an
eminent degree, possessed those qualifications
which so well fitted him for the moral and intel
lectual training of those who were entrusted to his
care.
2. That the loss of the services of this earnest
and upright matt is not only a weighty and serious
one to the College, but our community may well
deplore the removal of a good citizen, who had so
won by his worth the confidence and regard of all.
3. That we sympathize with the family of the
departed in their bereavement, and feel we can do
little more than point them in this, their hour of
trial and affliction, to Him who doeth all thing s
well, and in whom the now deceased husband an
father so earnestly believed and trusted.
4. That as a mark of our respect for his memory,
we attend his funeral in a body.
5. That a copy of these resolutions be sent to
the family of our late friend.
On motion of Hon. William Dock, the Board ad
journed.
THE SPOILS THE SOLE Asa AND OBJECT OF BLACK
REPUBLICANISM!—A glance at the Editorial col
umns of the Telegraph of yesterday will convince
the reader that the attention of the Republicans
is' absorbed by the distribution of the loaves and
fishes, to the entire exclusion of any thoughts
bearing upon the critical condition of the country.
The leader refers to the fat salaries attached to
the principal foreign missions; another article
informs the public that the three Electors from
Oregon, instead of sending a messenger to Wash
ington with the returns of the Presidential elec
tion, went themselves to the seat of the General
Government with the returns, and shared the fif
teen thousand dollars which should have been the
perquisites of the messenger ! Another article
gloats over the $11,250 annual salary of the Min
ister to Guatemala and Honduras, who has nothing
to do but to swing in a hammock all day and flirt
at Tertullas with the Senoritas at night! While
the editor of the Telegraph was inditing these inter
esting facts, his mouth was certainly watering at
a great rate, and it required at least the appliance
of six extra bandanas to prevent an overflow upon
his paper. The recapitulation of these magnifi
cent sums must have suggested most discouraging
comparisons with the small affair of the Harris
burg Post-office. Don-'t you wish you had them
all, including the Senoritas?
EARLY Commurxox.—We learn, from good au
thority, that Mr. Moorhead, President of the Phil
adelphia and Erie 8,. R. Co.. is confident that the
road will progress so rapidly as to permit of the
running of passenger trains between Erie and
Philadelphia in less than 15 months. The work
will be pressed on with as much rapidity as possi
ble. The completion of this great work will be an
era to which all the citizens of Erie may look for
ward with impatience and delight. It will be pro
ductive of results so magnificent that they will
suprise many wise are now thought quite moderate
in their expectations. Erie will then take her pro
per position as one of the most important points
on the lakes, and will be from thirty to forty miles
noarer,by direct railroad connection, with the great
commercial cities of the seaboard than any other
place on Lake Erie.
PARKESBURG SHOPS.—The Pennsylvania Rail
road Company is now engaged taking down the ma
chinery in the shops at Parkesburg, preparatory to
removal to Harrisburg. The ground on which the
shops are erected was originally presented to the
State by George Parke, to hold as long as it
should.be occupied for the repair of locomotives,
dm, and when abandoned for such purpose, to re
vert to the original owner or his heirs. When the
State sold the railroad to the Pennsylvania Com
pany, the shops passed into their hands. Since
he contemplated abandonment of the shops, the
question as to the ownership of the machinery
therein has arisen. The heirs maintain that the
machinery reverts to the estate with the ground
and buildings. The machinery is valued at some
$15,000 or $20,000.
A Buintza.—The most miserable, hopeless scrap
of humanity is an idle man—a man where chief
aim of life is to "loaf"—to waste in listless loun
ging and mental and physical inaction the years of
his short life. There arf scores of such beings in
every town and city—miserable loafers whose sole
occupation is to avoid employment of any kind—
whose lives can scarcely be called lives—who die
one after another, and leave behind them—what?
The cold tear of sympathy? No, but the forlorn
and broken hearts of many friends. We have
I{lloWlt many men of brains, not only here but else-.
where, who were addicted to indulging in, and
partaking of, the intoxicating beverage, and yet
they lived and died as men.
BEFORE THE MAYOR.—The "retreat" on Monday
night was crowded with lodgers. The cells con
tained ten individuals, who were arrested on vari
ous charges. Three of them were arrested for
drunk and disorderly conduct, and being minus
the necessary amount of pewter, they were sent by
express to the other side, there to remain ten days.
Three "wigs" were brought up who were also short
of change; ono of them, however, was fortunate
enough to have a dollar to pay his fine, and the
balance were discharged. The others were volun
teers, and after eajoyinng the hospitality of the
retreat they wended their way to parts unknown.
NO BIRTH WANTED.—AB a steamboat was about
to start from Cineinnati recently, a young man
came on board, leading a blushing damsel by the
hand, and approaching the polite clerk, said in a
suppressed voice:
"I say, me and my wife have just got married,
and I am looking for accommodations."
"Looking for a berth?" hastily inquired the clerk,
passing tickets out to another passenger.
"A birth! thunder and lightning, no !" gasped
the astonished man, "we haint but just got mar
ried ; wo want a place to stay all night you know."
Sscrasion.—Go where you will, promenade the
streets in any direction, and you will find the peo
ple seceding from their domicils. Whether this is in
consequence of the high rents and tyrannical land
lords, or for fashion's sake, we know not. But one
thing is certain, if some of the capitalists of this
city would erect a number of small tenements, and
rent them out at a reasonable price, they would
reap the benefit.
LOOK OUT FOR Tnint.—Philadelphia, at the pre
sent time, is infested with a lot of burglars. The
detectives of the oity are upon their track, and will
no doubt compel them to leave that locality, Ii
that case, we may look for the appearance of some
Of them in this neighborhood.
THE HARRISBURG FIREMEN AND THE
LEGLYLAWEE.
Mn. EDITOR :—I see by the proceedings of the
Legislature that the appropriation usually granted
to the Fire Department of this city will most likely
be withheld this session. For the information of
the firemen of this place, and their friends, I will
inform them what influences were brought to bear
to defeat a measure so important to them. Last
fall the Republican party of this county placed in
nomination two gentlemen of this city; one for
member of the House of Representatives, the other
for Sheriff of the county. Both of these men are
what the world would call clever; but as all men
have their weak spots, so had they. The former
instead of staying at home, as his beat friends ad
vised him to do, commenced perambulating the
county, making spread eagle speeches in which he
compared his reception by the people to the trium
phant entry of Washington into Trenton. He
even went so far as to assert that circumstances,
and not intellect, had made Franklin a greater man
than himself. This gentleman overlooked one very
important fact, and that was that the common
school system of our good old Commonwealth had
been doing its work in Dauphin county. The am
bition of the candidate for Sheriff ran in somewhat
a different direction from that of our Legislative
friend; he conceived that he held the voters of
Dauphin county at his disposal; he openly declared
that he carried the political key of the county,
and by his acts no doubt believed that Dauphin
county and all the people in it, both old and young,
male and female, were created expressly for his
benefit. The people thought differently; they took
the key out of this aspirant's bands, and with it
locked him up in obscurity and oblivion. Defeated
candidates rarely place the causes of their defeat
upon themselves; this was the ease with our two
friends. After pitching about furiously for some
one on whom to throw the blame of their discom
fiture, they finally charged the firemen of Har
risburg with being the cause of it, and proceed
to bore the Legislature to withhold the usual ap
propriation,
Another prominent actor in this matter is a cer
tain Third street lawyer, who aspired to show his
goodly proportions before "Old Abe," on the occa
sion of his recent visit to this place. This gentle
man was appointed by the legislative committee to
a prominent place in the procession, and so deter
mined was be to show himself to the best advan
tage that he went to Philadelphia to consult Rarey
upon horsemanship, and I heard it rumored that
he had consulted a military friend of his on the
propriety of wearing a chapeau and plume. The
hopes and preparations of this gentleman were cut
short by the firemen, who determined that they
would not be marshalled by a man who bad so bit
terly denounced them in a speech in a recent cam
paign—they elected their own marshal, which left
our friend high and dry; horsemanship, chapeau,
plume, spurs and all—hence his opposition.
It is astonishing, Messrs. Editors, that members
of the Legislature should be influenced by such
men as these, especially the two former; because a
ten minutes"conversation with either of them
should be convincing proof of their littleness. If
they had been men like Washington or Franklin,
or if they really had held the destinies of 40,000 of
the good citizens of this Commonwealth in their
keeping, and subject to their bidding, then I would
not be astonished to hear of them having influ
ence; but the estimation those men have of them
selves, and that placed upert.them by others, is so
widely different, that I am astonished that in a
matter of so much importance they have had a
hearing. I ask the Legislature to let these fellows
to themselves, to work out their own salvation, and
settle•their own petty squabbles, and do justice to
our firemen.

PROF. WOOD'S HAIR RESTORATIVE
READ WHAT A DISTINGUISHED PHYSICIAN
OF ST_ LOUIS SAYS OF IT.
St. Louis, July 10th, 1860.
0. J. WOOD, Esq.: 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, neither has there beenup to
this time.
After my hair was completelyrestored, I continuedits
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 pien.sure
ih recommending your Restorative and exhibiting its
effects in my own case. In several instances I have met
with people that have pronounced it a humbuo. ; 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 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
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.
You are at liberty to publish this or to refer partieato
me. Any communication addressed to me, care box
1920, will be promptly answered. Yours, truly,
JAMES WHITE, M. D.

Pam'. Wool. : Dear Sir—l was induced more than a
year ago to try your valuable Hair Restorative, for the
purpose of cleansing my head of dandruff I bad suf
fered with it upon my head for years, 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
t to universal use, for it has completely removed all dand
ruff from my head, and an application once in twoweeks
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 Restora
tive, 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. 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 preparation of great
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, 1859.
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 thirtyyears. Ism
now over 50 years of age. For about twenty years past
my heir has been turning oonsiderably gray, and was
almost entirely white, and very stiff and unpliant.
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 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 smell way: Z purchased 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 considrrably 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 t had in me 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 lhougji it was just
from under the hands of a French shampooer. Many
of my acquaintances irequen tly say to me, "Butler, where
did you get that line wig'." 1 tell them it was the ef
fects of your ltostorettive. It is almost impossible to
convince them that it is the original hair of the same
old gray head. Yours. truly,
FREDERICK T. BUTLER,

NOE , . WOOD'S HAM RESTORATIVE.—In 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 cuta
neous eruptions, and prevents the hair failing 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 os persons of the most re
liable character. Don't dye till you have tried this Re
storativej--Boston Wive Branch.
WOOD'S HAIR HESTORITIVE.—We are not in the habit
of puffing every new oiscovery, for nine 6:1.463 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 beads will be as rare as
snow in Eummer.—Ealt /more Patriot.
WOOD'S HAIR RESTORATIVE.—UnIike most specifics,
this is proven, by unimpeachable evslence, to possess
great efficary as a restorer .of the hair to its pristine
vigor. Where the head had become almost bald because
of sickness, the use, of this artiqle has produced a beau
tiful growth of thick, glossy hair. It is therefore a val
uable preparation for all classes. Its ingredients are
such as to effectually eradicate dandruff and other im
purities, which operate so injuriously to the hair. It
also has curative properties of another descripti•m In
many cases pimples and otherdisfigurements 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,ns the Compound, if it does not cause
a manifest improvement, is incapable of doing harm, as
its component elements are perfectly innoxiotts.—Bos
ton Transcript, ApreP22,
A GENUINE BOOS.--In 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 vender claims it to be. Its
effect upon a falling hdad of hair is universally 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.
giraex NOSTRUM —The majority of hair washes, hair
dyes, hair tonics, hair oils, and the numberless prepara
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 baptised with some
tri..syllable term, and caught at by verdant young an d
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 Hatr Restorative—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 Restora
tive for the Hair is the best article extant—New York
