from cannon on the river bank. Lot all join in the
celebration of this great event, and in rendering
honor to whom honor is duo." •
Suceia•ial Experiment on the Penney/vania Central
I,'.:llroaci.—On the heavy grade from Altoona to
Cresson, which is ninety.five feet to the mile, it has
Leen cus:cmary to attach an additional locomotive to
the train, but on Tue.tday last the experiment was
tried of making the ascent with but one engine, the
seme which had brought the train to the former
point. Suffice it to say, the attempt was highly
-ucoossful, although the speed was necessarily
somewhat reduced ; this, however, caused no
inconvenience to the passengers, who had, thereby,
abundant opportunity of observing the magnificent
tconery—too grate beyond measure for an attempted
description—and were only delighted to be able to
tarry a- little longer in this unprecedented and un
rivalled enjoyment. The train was an unusually
!arg,e one, :nem being seven full cars In it. Lovers
r‘t the grand and picturesque in nature and of the
gigQntio and marvellous in art, should not fail to
take a rido over this interesting line of travel.
A ShggEetion.—We would suggest to the different
beat clut,: , of the city that they add to the effect of
,gortr..ral illumination in honor of the
zuc,TEEtul !cymg of the telegraph cable, by getting
Lp a torch light regatta. Let °lab and every row
boat and barge, appropriately decorated, tarn out, lit
un with torches, and row in regular order, without
endeavoring to emulate each other in speed, from the
Monongahela bryge, around the Point and up the
Allegh ; to t.. lechaaic street bridge, and back.
A band -r wo of music would add much to the
effect. Such an exhibition on the waters would have
a beautiful appearance, and would add greatly to the
~.oltzt of the occasion. We hope our suggestion may
be acted upon; as we know the gentleman amateurs
refs to have sufficient enterprise to make the dis
play a credit to themselves and the city. Who will
be the Erst to call a meeting of the boat clubs to con ,
`siderthe matter ?
The Grasshopper Visitation.—Within a space
of about three weeks, says the Fredonia, Chautauqua
county, N. Y., Advertiser, myriads of grasshoppers
have appeared in almost every section of the coun
try. The swarms in our immediate locality exceed
in number and destr.:etiveness those of any previous
year for a long period of time. Their depredations
are not confined to any particular crop. Everything
green is liable to their consumption, anon from corn
and potatoes down to onions and tobacco. Much in
jury hci already been done, and infintiely more
will La, unless something interposes like a cold rain,
c r a disease, which will cripple aad destroy them,
some evidences of which latter are now apparent.
These unv. - eleci,c visitors aro also said to be devasta
ting some of the northern counties of Pennsylvania,
bordering on Now York.
Accident.—Mr. Peter Wallace, of Kanawha county,
Va., and another man were engaged in digging a
well. Soon after they went down, his companion
was observed to dr..,p, when Mr. Wallace called his
wife to his assistance, and immediately descended,
fastened a top. around Slater, and Mrs. Wallace
drew him up. By the time he was drawn up the
mophltio air in the well had so acted upon Wallace
that he 'cocaine senseless. Slater had not recovered,
and Mrs. Wallace was there without assistance, and
none could be procured until she went to a neigh
bor's house, about a quarter of a mile distant. By
tho time assiEtance arrived, and Mr. Wallace was
drawn up, ho v:aa dead. He was a gocd citizen, and
tcaeh respected in his neighborhood.
airs.—These animals are becoming an item in
the trade of the West with the East. A lot of forty
p43sed through Cleveland one day last week, en
route for Massachusetts. These animals were raised
on the prairies of Illinois. and v.ere as fine a let as
any we have ever seen. The success that has at
t,,nded their introduction upon city railways and om
nibus lines has created quite a demand for them.
The rich and extensive prairies of the West afford a
fine field for raising them, where the cost is but tri
fling. We should not be surprised to see this trafac
grow into a large branch of trade between the West
and the East.
Attempted Suicide.—ln Mount Vernon, Ohio, on
Sunday rooming last, a young man named Columbus
Johnson, while crazy with passion, superinduced by
excessive drinking, made two violont attempts to
destroy his life by cutting his throat. The wounds
he inflicted wcro immediately under the chin, whore
the jaw bone interfered to prevent the consummation
of his terrible pUrposes. Although unsuccessfal in
his &signs, Johnson declared during the day that it
was still his intention to destroy his life, and would
allow no one to dress or attempt to heal his wounds.
Arrested.—We noticed some time since that a
man named Glossing had hired two gray horses from
a livery stable keeper named Christman, in Danville,
Montour county. He was arrested on Monday eve
ning last at a hotel in Easton. He had been in town
iveral days and had Bold the horses to Mr. William
Leseber for $2OO, taking Mr. L's note for $175 and
the balance in cash. A handbill had reached Easton
describing the man and horses, and be was arrested
and after a hearing committed to jail. Twenty dol
lars of the money given him by Mr. ',ember was re
covered.
Dra=ctic.—John Drew is at the St. Louis Theatre
The Flounces, now at Wallach's, propose mak
ing a tear of the south and west, opening first at
BsltiixOro. They are now playing a new extrava
ganza entitled " The Robbers of the Rhin(e)oh."
Johnson, the favorite comedian, and W. H. Bailey,
the old man, have commenced an engagement at the
Richmond Theatre, which has jest bean opened with
a fine company Eph. Horn is now attached to
Woods' Minstrels, playing in Now York.
A Murderer Attempting to take his Life.—Barns,
who is confined in the Wheeling jail, under sentence
of death for murder, attempted to commit suicide on
laq Friday night, by making an incision in his arm
w•th a steel pee, which he had sharpened halos rude
laxace. Ds made two several attempts, neither of
which proved f‘-tal, though he became quite faint
tr.'s. 105 s of blood. He is to bo executed in a short
time, and a strict watch will be kept over his future
.movomenta.
/,,gaiting a Fermile.—A man named Endenbnrger
way before tho Mayor yesterday morning, charged
with using insulting language to a lady who was
walking with a friend of his. He was fined for his
impertiraonce.
Diridend.—The Board of Directors of the Pitts.
burgh Life, Fire and Marino Insurance Company
have declared a dividend of two dollars per share
out of the profits of the last six months.
Godey.—Me.sEr& Hoot a Miner, Masonic Hall,

Run OCCM—Joha Myers, an old man about seven
ty.four years of age, was run over by a hand oar on
the 8. L Railroad, in Steubenville, on_ Monday

when he was overtaken. Tho car passed over his
band, cutting it badly. By the force of the fall he
was cut on the head, and badly bruised. He may re
cover, but his injuries are rather serious: The old
man is very deat, and has been struck by trains
twice before.
Scarce.—Thero was a great dearth of local items
in the cities yesterday—nothing of importance trans.
piring during the day. Business was almost at a
stand still, and the publio mind seemed to be absorb.
ed with the encoring news received from the Atlan
tic Telegraph, and the contemplated celebration in
honor of the crowning event of the present century.

tinned and careful trial of them in an ample practice war
rants. In their operation as a cathartic, Choy influence
more the motory and less ihesecerning power of the bowels
than any other combination in common use.
AS A TONIC—They agree with the moat delicate arm
ach, removing nausea. pain, and debility from that organ,
and through it impart tone and vigor to the whole system.
AS AN ANTI-DYSPEPTIC—They neutralize and inter
rapt the formation of acids, check fermentation, and pre•
vent the elimination of gases from the food in the stomach,
—the direct consequences of chemical action,—an action
which should never exist in the human stomach. From
these peculiarities in the Pills, a person taking them may
expect a free, fall and natural evacuation of the bowels,
without pain, nausea, local or general debility, or that dis
gusting eicknees or costiveness—the usual effects which at
tend or follow the use of other pm ee.

ANN ARBOR, November 6,1868.
pier. 0. J. Wood—Dear Bir have heard much wild of
the wonderful effects of your Hair lizatorative, but having
Geo:2 BO often cheated by quackery and quack nostrums,
hair dyes, Ac., I was disposed to place 'your Restorative in
the same category with the thousand and one loudly trum
peted quack remedies, until I met you in Lawrence county
some months since, when you gave me snob assurance as
induced the trial of your Restorative in my familyl—ftrat by
my good wife, whose hair had become very thin and en
tirely white, and before exhausting one of your large bot
tlee, her hair was restored nearly to its original beautiful
brown color, and bad thickened and become beautiftd and
glossy upon, and entdrelyiover the head; she continues to
use it, not simply because of its beautifying effects upon
the hair, but because of its healthful influence upon the
head and mind. Others of my family and friends arousing
your Restorative, with the happiest effects herefore, my
skepticism and doubts in 'reference to its character, and
value are entirely removed; I can and do and moat cor
dially and confidentially recommend its use by all who
would have their hair restored from while or gray (by res.
son of sickness or age,) to original color and beauty, and by
all young persons who would - have their hair beautiful and
glossy. Very truly and gratefully yours,
SOLOMON MANN.

mo it would do; and others of my family and-friends,
