Hair Vigor,
For restoring to Gray Hair its
natural Vitality and Color.
A dressing
which is at•
once agreeable,
healthy, .and
effectual for
preserving the
hair. It soon
restores faded
or gray hair
to its original
color, with the
gloss and freshness of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair• checked,
and baldness often, though not always,
cured by. its use. Nothing, can restore
the hair where the follicles are de
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu
lated in activity, so that a new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
front turning gray or fulling off, and
consequently prevent baldness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the'•forma
tion of dandruff, which is often. so un
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which malce
some preparations dangerous and iMn
rions co the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can he found so desiralile.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it doc bu s
not soil white cambric, awl ver
long on the hair, giving it a ri:•:t. • y
lustre, and a grateful perfume.

Below are presented the leading features of
the British Case, submitted to the Arbitrators
'at Geneva, and which Is Invested with special
Interest since England has protested against
the provisions of our own. The document , s
divided into ten parts, and has en appendix
forming tour volumes. Toe ten parts of the
Case proper aro devoted to a• history of the
events which accompauied and followed the
outbreak orolvil war in the United States,
and preset: in detail the facts relative to the
Ilebel cruisers. The appendix contains the
corn spondence and public documents bearing
on the question at issue. The ninth part,
which contains a summary of the question
submitted to the Arbitrators and of the facts
included In the Brltiab Case, has many im-
poitant statements. This pait begins by
qtioting the rules laid down in iho Treaty for
the guidance of thii Arbitrators, and It then
I=l
In fact, the tribunal Is therefore to deter
mine this question : Has the British Govern
meet as a neutral, failed to perform an inter
national duty such as it may tie, due to the
'United States, in connection with certain
ships f If the reply Is In the affirmative the
tribunal will then formulate a judgment on
the extent of the responsibility, if reaponsibi
lily thereto, incurred by failure to perform a
duty ; and it will adjudge a lump sum to sat
isfy al just claims, or define in all that regards
each particular'vessel, the limits of responsi
bility for the guidance of the assessors. The
claims which may be presented to the tribunal
and which it will have only to concern• itself
with; are claims growing out of acts. if such
there were, committed by these vessels in re-•
gard to which It will have been proved that a
duty has not been fulfilled.
This summary of facts is devoted to the oft
told story of the fitting out of the Rebel
crntsers, and their history generally, narrated
from tho British point of view. It concludes
by asserting that the British Government tot.
filled in all respects its international duties.
The "Conclusion," which forms the most im
portant part of the case, and briefly embodies
all that is argued in it, Is as follows, being
translated from the French, in which language
it was presented to the Geneva Tribunal:
The Government of Her Britannic Majesty,
In order to inform the Arbitrators, tins given
a statement of the principal facts which it be
lieves essential in the interest life just acclei,,n
upon the claims made by the United States.
In this statement Her Majesty's GoviTnnten
has had to contend against an unavoidable
disadvantage—it has had to reply to nn
ment not yet submitted. When that shall
have been presented, and the claims of the
United States shall be defined precisely, Her
Majesty's Government will exeret , e the .right
conferred 0;1 it by Article IV of the Treaty,
to submit to the tribunal an' ad iitional or
more extended statement of facts as tile ease
may exact. Until theetunirtrisun of the cases,
presented by both parties', shall defermitie tip•
points really in dispute between the two G•iv
:erumehts, it will refrain from all discussion
Intended tn.:sustain Its own - position, and will
'limit Its If, at present, to • submitting to the
judgment of the tribunal Ike follow leg con
siderations :
As the ships, whatever may be the'clreum
stances; were 'procured in British ports for war
purposes; and were'employed as belligerent
cruisers against the United Stales (while Grea.
Britian berselftertittilfed neutral), these events
have been a cause of displeasure and, regret to
the Government'' of her Britannic Majesty.
This regret exists despite the lollowing facts,
which,- it mustbe conceded are important, to
arrive at a just appreciation of the question.
The vessels were. procured by cunning and
clandestine ma ans, which baffled the vigilance,
of the Government officers; not one had the
that armament; some bail been constructed es
ordinary merchant vessels, having nothlne
which would adapt them specially for war; in
number they were very small, and finally, the
poisons who obtained possession and control of
t lem, and employed them for belligerent pur
poses were themselves American citizens.
which the United Mates Government has al
ways admitted. Such facts should seriously
effect, in the mind of every impartial man,
the qu. stlon relative to the responsibility ot
neutral Government. It is no lees true that
the acts themitelves (being clench a charac er,
that if they were committed by a neutral Gov
ernment, or under its notice, they would com
promise its neutrality) must tend inevitably
to pion trouble in the relations with the belll.
gerent against whom they were directed. Ac
s wdingly v .Her Majesty's Government has not
hesitated to testily frankly and openly, its re
gret to the UniWd States, and It has agreed to
give expression to that regret In the Treaty
ded between the two Powers.
But thelinited litotes Government professes
o have right to a pecuniary Indemnity for the
claims which It says resulted front the acts of
these vessels, that'is to say, the warlike oper
ations carried on by means of these ships by
the persons who had them in their possession.
It is evident that a pretension of this nature
is such that Her Majesty's Government, an
mated as It is with the most amicable sent
menta toward the United States, could no'
In virtue 01 the respect it owes to its own
rights and those of neutral nations in general
consent to admit, since it believes that i

Government) professes to claim is a mailer at

made valid by establishing clearly that rin in

States by Great Britain, bad hien violated by
her ;und further, it should be demonstrated
that appreciable injury resulted directly to the
United States, by reason of which Great Bri.
tan owes them pecuniary componsatbu. It
devolves consequently upon the United States
to establish the propositions it has advanced ;
to state clearly the international duty or fill
ties upon which they are based, and to dem
onstrate the violation of e Web It complains.
A charge against a sovereign Government of
having evinced culpablenegilgeuce in the ex
erciso of one of the powers of sovereignty is
an imputation which-shoul - be sustained by
'strong and solid reasons. Every sovereign
Government,asserts the tight of. being inde

may repudiate. Still less Is It sufficient to
demonstrate that a judgment rendered by a
competent judicial court, and by which .the
Executive was guided, is tainted with error.
An administrative act based on an error or the
erroneous decision of a tribunal, may, it is
true, give cause under certain circumstances
for a demand for compensation on the part of
the person or Government wronged by this
act or decision. But the charge of negligence
against a Government should not bo estab

point out or to Dhow that; in the execution of
his administrative ditties, w Giiverntnent ofti•

small, to be desired as regards judgment or
penetration, or even that he remained within
the ,limits of all possible promptitude and
celerity To found on this basis exclusively

tion of international law, would be exacting

position of a neutral Intolerable. On the other
hand, a nation ought not to be held responsi
ble for a delay or omission which may he due
simply to accident and not to a want of fore

suffice to demonstrate that an act has been
committed which the Government should
have foreseen. What must be advanced and
proved Is that the Government failed to exer
cise the same amount of care as it usually em
ploys In internal affairs, and which it may be
reasonably required to use In matters affecting
international interests and duties. These
considerations acquire special force when ap.

HOW IT HAPPENED
A Plensnnt Account of nn Explorton
The Danbury News gives the following
cheerful account of a late disaster In that town :
"There was a trifling affair in-Branehville,n
Friday. Philos W. Bates has a quarry about
a quarter of a mile east of the village. lie is
also the owner of a blacksmith's situp near by,
where he employs two or three men to char
pen the tools used In quarrying the stone fur
the tihepang road, at Bethel. In accordance
with a good old New England custom, the
powder used is kept in the blacksmith shop.
fhere,were two kegs partly filled, and one
keg unbroken In the shop atthe time our story
opens. It was a pleasant day. There was
no bright suinshlne, but the general appearance
of things out doors was mellow and comforta
ble like. •One of the men was employed at
tile anvil, hammering the sultry end or a crow
b.tr. A few grains of powder hail fallen upon
tit- floor while. replenishing the quarry from
the open kegs. We Caine near forgetting to
slat , • this, which is a more important matter
than at first sight seems probable. The other
employes were busily en.oged, as the sous of
toil are apt to be when employed by the day.
A balsamic perfume filled the atmesphe‘ of
the situp. Suddenly a flake of streaming lot
iron shot from" the anvil and down among the
grains of powder which held their slumbering
fires to the flow. There were a few unnoticed
pops and flushes, then 'canto a hiss, as 'the
dames shot over into the open kegs. The
oleo who held the crow bar in, chanically
passed out doors. Another sou of toil who,
with his back to the danger, was looking
through a window, turned around in time to
detect one end of the shop In the act of mov
ing off, billowed by a conirade whose shot
bud gone up in a flame. The two partly•flll.
ed kegs had exploded with the customary
violence, and the lull keg was on tire. At
tins juncture was displayed an act of herohng .
seldom exhibited in Fultfield county. Mr.
Bates seized the burning keg and hurled It
out into the snow, In time to quench the
dames, save the balance of his shop,. and the
lives ei. himself and men. Two of the men
were badly burned, a port'on of the shop was
wrecked, and two roosters who had been
fighting near by at once burled all animosities
engendered by the fray, and immediately
started over the hill for home, with the rapid
and graceful gait peculiar to those feathered

Kibler to his " nephew. You had better

" Can't. Am going away myself, sir."
"The—the d-1 you are I" responded the
old gentlem-n pushing his spectacles up over
his forehead and regarding his nephew with an
air of surprise and consternation.
" Yes sir.- tAarley Hunt invited me nut to
his place for a week and I thought that I
might as well go now as any time.
I should say it was a very strange time to be
leaving home. Your aunt and cousin would
consider it a personal affront, sir."
"It Is not Intended as such sir, though, to
he frank, considering the object of Jennie's
visit. I prefer not to• see her. And I must say
that I think she would have shown more
sense of delicacy if she had stayed away."
'• Your cousin Is a very lovely girl, Mr.
Impudence, and won't be likely to go beg
ging."
I don't doubt It In the leant. But for all
at she won't suit me for a wife, uncle."
" How do you know that, you conceited
young donkey, when you have never seen
her?" inquired the irate old man, bringing
his cane down upon the floor with stari liog
emphasis.
` Common sense teaches that no marriage
can be happy that dove not spring from mutu•
al love. And on one thing I am resolved,
that I will never marry for mercenary mo
tives."
" Nobody Wants you to marry the girl un
less you like her I" roared Mr. Wilder, his
face crowing purple with rage and vexation
at his nephew's perversity. " All I ask is
that you will stay and see her. And this is
the pohd that I•insist upon—yes sir, I insist
upon it l"
" I am sorry to disobey you, uncle ; but if
I should stay it will only give rise to conclu
sions that lam noxious to avoid. But I will
tell you what I will do; I will relinquish all

should not be divided. As that seems to he
the main object, I think that it ought to be
satisfactory to all parties."

Her graceful form indicated that lAN was

the corner to which Russell helped her, she
threw it back, disclosing a fair, sweet face,
lighted by a pair of wondrously bright black
eyes which a swift, b iwildering glance iiro

The sudden starting of the ceach, which
sent some of the lady's parcels from the seat
to the floor, gave Russell an opportunity of
speaking, as he returned them, of which he
was not slow to take advantage.
From this they fell easily into conversation;
and it was curious how sociable they became.
They talked of the beautiful scenery through
which they were pr ssing ; of the newest books
and latest magazines, acme of which Russell
had with him.
The lady Inwardly thought her Companion
to be the most entertaining and agreea.he man

he often lost the thread of hia discourse In ad•
miring the red, dimpled lips, and the pearly
teeth they disclosed whenever she spoke or
smiled.
Certain it is that his four hours' ride from
I'— to Dighton were the shortest four hour's
ride that he bad ever known ho his lite.

The ringing laugh that burst from Rollie's
lips was too contagious to ho resisted oven by
those at whose expense it was raised.
This merriment was followed by a general
good feeling, and a pleasanter tea party never
gathered around the social board.
We nerd hardly say
. that Russell did not
take the stage the next morning, nor did Jen
nie seem at ail disposed to cut short her visit
on account of her cousin's unexpected appear
ance.
When they did go they want as they came
—together.
Mr. Wilder's astlnishment was only equal
led by his delight, on looking out of the win
dow, to see the two walking up the path to
wards the house, arm in arm, and apparently
on the best of terms.
As for Russell and Jennie, they seemed to
regard this expevel meeting as an Indication
of their manifest destiny, sceepting it as such,
much to the joy of their uncle, whose darling
wish was accomplished in the marriage of the
two, thus made happy in spite of themselves.
SOUTIIERN SOCIAL LIFE
Front the Tribune.
Perhaps there is no more curious phase of
our purely social life, or one more deserving
of attention, titan that of the South at the
present time. We have occasional elaborate
pictures of it from several Southern writers,
who find It not only soothing to their sensibil
ities to deplore the lost golden age of Slavery,
but, most probably, profitable In a pecuniary
sense. One of these gentlemen, In a maga
zine of the current month, dips his pen In al
ternate tears and gall to depict the deplorable
condition of the young ladles and gentlemen "
of Virginia deprived of their former corps of
fieldlind household servants. There can bo
little doubt that life in the Virginia plantations
lathe more suggestive sign of the depth of
the change made by the war, and one that ap•
peals most nearly to our sympathies. The
culture (particularly of the women ) was high
er and broader that in any, other Southern
St ate; th e treatment of the slaves more humane;
the hospitality as unstinted end more enlight
ened, for it was capable 01 offsrlng fond to the
brain oldie guest as well as his body. In
spite of the peevish heat and resentment with
which our neighbors are apt to reject our
overtures of friendship, they cannot hinder
our warm and hearty recognition of their
laims up in it, both before and after our quar
rel. Ni, person of common sense denies
either the compassion due to their position,
deprived of tin ir sole source of income, at
the very period when an exhaustive crippling
war rendered them least able to bear such
loss. But the Notherner, when he loses his
income, does not hill flat to the ground ; hts
bra a or hands or feet are ready to help him :
and if the negro, as a source of livelihood,
crippled all these in his master so as to make
hint the enfeebled, resourceless burden which
lie de,cribes himself to be, it was high time,
for his own sake, that the negro was taken
from hint.
The lugubrious writer in Lippincott begins
Ids tale ot woe sty stat'ng the alarming tenure
In the wheat and other crops, w huh he as
cribes to the want of labor, tau "negroes" in
vailitoly prefer' ing to work fornnyb My "else

Irons which any oilier eyes than those of an •
aroma Southerner could draw the moral, and
which conflmis with the ancient tales of "pa
triarchal blinds and affection trom generation
to sreheral
Next we are told that, negro children being
no longer profitable, "women without lucent-
Wanes" are preferred as servants; consequent
ly tewer black children are burn, and those
f,w, , whitt with freedom and free schools, are
I reared in a much less obedient manner than
in slavery. Probably our colored brethren
, Minx they ought to have learned obedience
s iffielently by this time, and are acquiring
some 'tiler virtue. But the CHUMS of elo
qusnee and pathos is given in the discription
of the typical Virginia I idy, "of jeweled
Lingers, classic features and absolute repose
of manner, a woman of our preferred 'stock,
our best strain of blood," occupied in cook
ing, bed making, and finally paperhanging,
"at the sight of which," bewails der Jeremi
ah, "profound pity welled up within my
"soul." As a parallel picture, he presents
the brother of this ludy,"aquillne nused,firm
chinned, inured to battle, and sighing for the
good old war times, but heeliig, plowing, and
digging manfully in the hot sun from morn
ing to night." At which depressing spectacle
the author "burns like fire,' and relieves his
heat in the proper chivalric manner by a vol
ley of oaths against the Abolitionists and The
Tribune
We suspect that he will not carry his audi
ence altogether with him in his fervor or die
pair. Cooking, bed•rualting, and milking
cows are certainly not the most desirable oc—
cupations for women of culture and refine
ment; but there are very few such women,
however wealthy, living on !arms In the
North Who have not been forced often to prac
tice them from the difficulty of Meld lug ser
vants. Now the Virginia lady for genera
tions has'had the chance of furnishing herself
with trained servants, and if she has tailed to
do so or to bind them to her by any Bei:minter
of association or affection, other than that of
orce, she certainly Is as much to be blamed
aa pitted. As for her brother, we heartily
congratulate the young fellow on havingtaken
to the plow and hoe so vigorously. When
we knew him, years ago, dancing at Green•
brier, provi..g his knightly valor by gallop
lug round a field at Berkeley to thrust a long
pole through a ling, gambling and swig ;
ging tniut-juleps at the Spottswood House,
we hardly would have hoped , for so much
manly stuff in him. When this wholesome
fight with the soil and sun shall have brought
out the latent energy of his body, his brain
probably will have its turn of development, -
aod he will find there are countless accessible
ways of earning a support independent of his --
oat stuff the negro, and quite unconnecte
with the plow and lice.

"At the same time, as the calm chroniclers
of current events, we are forced to admit that
the administration propl&auffer more frbm the
ability of their opponents than from the facts
proven. Recognizing the melancholy truth
that the brain of the Republican party has been
alienated from its counctls,aud holdsan antag

ple were thrown into a panic over. the pros.
p act of a lose of the German vote. This seemed
to paralyze them so that they could not treat
the charge of fraud w"th the indifference it
re illy deserved. For after sifting with care
MI the evidence offered, we are forced to ad
mit that not even a prima facie case has been
made out. At the &mac of our late civil war
the government found itself possessed of a
vest amount of material in the way of arms
of all sorts, that were not only useless but
would nOt bear keeping, because of the im
provernents continually demanding accep
tance if we wish to keep pace with other
governments in this respect. The law author
izing the sale Is auflictently broad to allow a
general sale of all material. It reads that the
' Secretary of War may sell at private or pub
lic sale, as lie may deem moat advantageous
'to the public interest, the - old cannon, arms,
and other ordnance attires now in possession
of the War Dena t nent,whleh are damaged or
otherwise un ultublefor the United States seri.
vice.' Now whether to secare an advanta•
geous sale the Department could manufacture
ammunition to suit the arms, Is questionable.
It is the only question in Cite whole unit
"That the secretary should seek to use the
advantage given him by a great war in Eu
rope is right and proper. He la bound to
know that the armftlins disposed of are tolind
that matket, for he Is supposed to have corm•
mon sense ; but he is not 'prohibited from
acting by such knowledge. The doctrine of
neutral duties sought to be established by
Senators Sumner and Schutz are the same
recognized by the infamous Washington treaty
that we have denounced as foreign to our
practice in the past, and fatal to our future es
a nation. It was not pleasant to as during
the late civil war to have England to follow
our own precedents, and under that impulse
our representatives of the high Joint commis•
shin sought to establish new rules. The re
sult is a remedy when too late to be (Ossetic°
and a recognition of International law that
robs us of our strength hereafter." - •
