The Devil's Chair. A letter from Manchester, N. H., in the Boston Post, says that at the Amoskeag Falls the Devil’s Chair is visible, in consequence of the low water in the Merrimac, which has not been the case for many years: “ The chair is a specimen of river bottom architectecture, wrought into the solid rock which foyms the bed of this river. No mathe matical measurement could calculate this fur niture more accurately, nor could any chisel cut it more smoothly than the water has “ The tradition connected with this chair is that the devil used to frequent these parts, and made that particular place his seat, from whence he used to amuse himself by torineut the Indians with such diablerie as stopping the salmon, shad and eels that used to frequent • these waters, driving thorn back down the river, drinking up all the water of the river, or dashing it all into spray at the falls, anii casting it it into the air, and thus occasioning the long rainy days. “ Tiie y were rid of him at length on this wise: Passaconaway was a giant among the i Penicooks. He was more to them than Hia watha to the Dacotahs. He was a sort of Jupiter Motor among his tribe, and was pre vailed upon by the prayers of all good Indians, and driven by repeated injuries to remove this evil spirit from his throne. He did it to the eminent satisfaction of all time, and is -enti tled to the thanks of the Amoskeag Water Power Company ; for if he were now drying up the water, it would cause infinite mischief to ! all this machinery now running here.” A number of boys discovered several hun dred counterfeit gold dollars in the edge of the water at the levee in St. Louis, afewdays ago. On further search being made, a sack full of counterfeit silver coin was found near the same place. FUNERAL NOTICE.

Office, Vandalia, June 21,1854. PROFESSOR WOOD — Dear Sir—l take pleasure in bearing voluntary i. timouy to the excellence of your Hair Restorative. Tlirt v months ago my hair was very gray. It iB now a dark brown, (the original color,) smooth und glossy. The only application 1 have made to it, has been the Hair ltesto rative prepared by you, and which, from the result in my own case, 1 can most cordially recommend to othci -. Respectfully, yours, KDW. WOLCOTT. Vincennes, Ia„ June 21,1863. PROF. O. J. \V(OD— As you are about to manufacture and vend your re cently discovered Hair Restorative, i will state, for whomsoever it may concern, that 1 have used it, and known others to use it—that 1 have, for several years, been in the habit of using ether Hair Restoratives, and that I find yours vastly superior to any other I know. It entirely cleanses the head of dandruff, and with one month's ]iro|>er use, will restore any person’s hair to the original youthful color and texture, giving it a healthy soft ami glossy appearance; and all this, without discol oring the hands that apply it, or the dress on which ii drops. I would, therefore, recommend its use to every one desirous ot having a fine color and texture of hair. Respectfully, yours, WILSON KING. St. Loins, June 29,1853. PROF. WOOD— As you are about to prepare and vend your recently discovered Hair Restorative, and as you request uiy opin ion of it, 1 will state, that my hair w as, a few month: ugo, very gray, and after using two bottles of your Hair Restorative, it resumed its original color; and since it application, all dandruff has disappeared from my head, and I have been troubled with no disagreeable itcliing ol the scalp. lam satisfied that those who use it will not regret it, ns it gives the hair the appearance of having been recently oiled. lam prepared, therefore, to recom mend its use to all who are desirous of having a beautiful head of hair. I am, sir, yours, etc. 11. L. STEWART. PROF. WOOD— Dear Sir—My lmir hud, for several years, been In - coming prematurely gray, accompanied by a harshness whicli tendered the constant application of oil necessary in dressing it. When 1 commenced using your Hair Res torative, about two months ugo, it was in that condition : and having continued its use till within the last three weeks, it has turned to its natural color, and assumed a softness and lustre greatly to be preferred to those pro duced by the application of oils or any other preparation 1 have ever used. I regard it as an indispensable article for every lady’s toilet, whether to be used as a Hair Res torative, or for the simple purpose of dressing or heauti tying the liuir. You have permission to refer to me all who entertain any doubt of its performing all that in claimed for it. MRS. C. SYMONDS, Cincinnati,Ohio, Feb. 10, 1854. 144 Third st. Watertown.
