It was a long wished for desideratum, so to
combine articles for the hair, that while you
had a preparation which would cover the bald
heads with a luxuriant growth, restoring—and
preserving when restored—the color from gray
to its natural shade, you might have with these
qualities an elegant dressing for the hair.
Most of the Restoratives, so called, are made
of water, and leave the hair harsh and dry,
necessitating the use of a wash afterwards to
make the hair look decently. We are happy
to say that in lleimstreet’s Inimitable Hair
Restorative, all these qualities are combined-
It is composed of oil and stimulating spirits,
which makes it a nice dressing. It is a perfect
restorative for bald and gray.
MATTKRS OB’ BUSISESB.
In despite of our efforts to do a cash busi
ness we find on our books a very considerable
indebtedness. We have liabilities to meet
which, had we not given indulgences, we
should now be ready to cash. Our liabilities
must be met or our business operations will
seriously suffer. Our claims are in small
amounts, and eannct much embarrass any one
of our patrons to settle. Our liabilities are of a
character in amount that must seriously affect
our credit and business If not met. Is it asking
too much then of our patrons who are in ar
rears to come up and settle without delay.
We are drawing off all our accounts, and will
in a few days present them for settlement,
either in person or by mail, and trust all will
be ready to cash them on presentation. In
future we shall adhere more rigidly to the
cash system, even at the hazard of curtailing
the amount of our general business. We want
cash. Promises to pay will not settle our lia
bilities.

Tlie Funeral of Mr. Hurt.
Mr. Benjamin Hurt who died of dip
theria last Sunday morning was buried j
yesterday in the city cemetery. His re
mains were escorted to the grave by a
long procession of friends and relatives,
and by the Columbus Guards, of which
company he was a member Mr. Hurt ]
was universally loved and respected, and ■
liis sudden decease has thrown a gloom
over the community in which he was so
well known. Being in full health but a
few days ago, it seems hard to realize
that he has passed over the boundary of
another world.
Judge MclCendree.
It is due to Judge McKendree to state
that the use of his name in the election
on Wednesday last, was unauthorized by
him, and in direct opposition to his
wishes as expressed in a card published i
in this paper and the Daily Enquirer on
both Tuesday and Wednesday mornings.
To his friends who so earnestly desired
a continuance of his services on the
bench, he tenders his most grateful ac
knowledgements.
Flection oil Saturday,
The elections held on Saturday last
for Magistrates and Constables for the
Upper and Lower Districts of the city
resulted as follows:
Lower District. —John Quin and F. M.
llrooks for Magistrates. J. B. Hicks and
D. Crockett, Constables.
Upper District. —W. M. Brannan and
John G. Bethune for Magistrates. John
Lloyd for Constable.
Suspended.
We regret to learn that the work of
building a common passenger shed by
the various Rail RoacfCompanies in the
city, has been suspended in consequence
of the pressure of the times. We regret
this the more, as the traveling public are
very much in want of shelter in embark
ing and disen barking from the trains.
We trust however, that business may
soon revive, that the work may be con
sumated.
Prof. Bailini’* Concert.
The announcement that the pupils of
Urof. Bailini would give a concert in Tem
perance Hall, was very well received by
our music loving community, and at an
early hour tho Hall was filled with an
appreciative audience. The programme
embraced gems from Verdi, Donezetti,
Bellini and others composers, which were
rendered in a style one would expect
from artistes rather than from a band of
amateurs. The performance as a whole
was so good that we forbear mentioning
in particular any piece, which, in our
humble opinion, might be better than
another, except, perhaps, to say that the
Flute, Violin and Piano solos, together
with the Duet from Norma, and the pris
on scene from Trovatore, were most loud
ly applauded. To say that the concert
was satisfactory to a Columbus audience
is praise enough. We Lave frequently
been asked if it is to be repeated, and in
answer we can only refer to Prof. Bailini;
as yet we have had no announcement to
that effect. There is no doubt but it will
well bear repetition, and hope that Prof.
B. will take the matter into considera
tion.
TRIBUTE OP BESPECT.
At a meeting of the members ot the Sigma
Alpha Epsilon fraternity, in Columbus, on Mon
day last, being informed of the death of their
brother and fellow-member, Benj. H. Hurt, a
Committee was appointed to draw up resolu
tions expressive of the feelings of the fraternity
on this sad event.
Whereas, on the night of the 30th ult., Death,
in one of its worst forms, took away our much
esteemed friend aud beloved brother, Benj. H.
Hurt, it is but due to his memory that we, his
friends and fellow-members, should give some
expression of our esteem for him, and our
heartfelt sympathy for his bereaved friends
and family. Therefore be it
Resolved, That in his death our fraternity is
called upon to mourn the loss of one ot its
members whose place can never be filled.
Possessing superior intellectual powers, he
blended with them in perfect harmony those
noble qualities which ever adorn a true gentle
man and trustworthy friend. Having just en
tered upon the stage of life, and giving the
brightest promise for future usefulness and
honor, we had scarcely time to wish him suc
cess, when his fondest hopes are blasted as if
it were bv a breath, and his brightest anticipa
tions find their end with him in the grave.
Resolved, That whilst we deeply lament this
s ad dispensation of Providence, and would
wish he could have remained longer with us,
yet we will not murmur at the decrees of the
Almighty, but submit with calm resignation to
His holy will, believing that He directeth all
things for our good. , . ,
Resolved, That though we sympathize greatly
with his relatives, we can only potnt them to
the Saviour, who alone can heal the broken
heart and speak peace to the troubled soul,
For although from our midst lie’s gone,
His memory ever dear we'll keep —
Saying, although his spirit has flown,
Our brother is not dead —but sleeps.
R-solved, That a copy of these resolutions be
s ent to the city papers for publication, and a
manuscript copy to the family of the deceased.

The Muscogee Mounted Rangers.
b'h. Sun : The brave and honored Pal
metto State is threatened with war,
forced upon her by a band of uncompro
mising sbriekers, who, by the false cry of
liberty, have grown to immense power.
Let us then be in readiness. Let us
at once complete the preparations we
have so earnestly began for (he service
and defence of our horneß and firesides.
Arguments with our enemies are useless,
we must stand by our arm3. Mounted
Rangers of Muscogee, are you ready to
sacrifice your all, upon the altars of your
homes, the land of your choice, and the
land of your fathers. Then, to arms !
Let not your country look in vain to you
for the services you have tendered. Re
member you are sons of brave Southern
sires! Remember, you come to the res
cue of the laud of your childhood—your
fair sunny South.
Attend every member, and those wish
ing to join, the meeting of the company
to night. Important business before the
meeting. A MEMBER.
George Christy’* Minstrels.
This celebrated company, who have
1 won immensely upon the good opinion of
the people of the United States, will ap
| pear in this city, at Temperance Hall, on
| Monday evening, 7th inst. The Peters
| burg Express, in speaking of their en
! tertainments in that city, says it is the
; best troup of the kind that has ever vis
ited Petersburg, aud that their instru
mental music is of a refined aud artistic
cast, and the intervals of glorious bur
lesqus render the enjoyment of the
amusement thorough and inevitable. The
Express also pays Mr. Smith, the Agent
of the Company, who is a resident and
native of Richmond, Virginia, a typo aud
graduate of the Enquirer office of that
city, a handsome compliment for his ex
cellent business tact and gentlemanly
i manner. This is the original and bono
fide George Christy, and no mistake.
True Art In War.
The following we clip from an exchange
for the benefit of our new Rifle Company
quite recently formed in this city. The
suggestions therein contained are preg
nant with interest, and doubtless will be
read aud carefully stored away in the
memory of each, so that when summoned
to defend their noble old State, they will
lack nothing :
Col. Peard, ‘’Garibaldi’s Englishman,”
says of rifle shooting in battle : “ Mind,
| if you ever go rifle shooting, use your
rifle in a scientific manner. Recollect
always not tokill your man, but to wound
him ; then it takes two men to carry him
off, and those two men never by any
chance come back the same day. With
a double barreled rifle, therefore, you
may get rid of six men at each discharge.
Au Acknowledgement.
We hereby acknowledge our indebted
ness to J. W. Pease, and Messrs. Chaffin
& Johnson for the privilege of reforenco
to the many valuable volumes in their
stores. In a city where there is no pub
lic library such a privilege is of great
value, and we are especially fortunate in
having the freedom of two elegant and
well filled book stores. The latter gen
tlemen also have our thanks for “ Har
i pers.”

Dancing School.
By reference to our advertising col
umns it will be seen that Messrs. Biggs
& Gans, open their school for instruction
in dancing on Wednesday next. Mr.
Gans, it will be remembered, was associa
ted with Mr. Duesberry, who taught so
, successfully in our city in 1859. Mr.
i Biggs is unknown to us, but the fact of
J bis being associated with Mr. Gans is suffi-
I cient recommendation of his qualifiea
| tions to impart so graceful an art as
j dancing to children as well as adults.—
These gentlemen can be consulted for
tho present at the Music Store of Mr. W.
B. Carter.

Mobile and Girard Rail Road.
Eds. Sun: If my information is correct
j in relation to what was to be the settled
! policy of the management of the Mobile
1 and Girard Railroad, in six months after
the cars reached the Uuion Springs, the
Board of Directors were bound by a reso
lution of the company to make a report
and declare a dividend upon the stock,
and so continue to do semi-annually.—
And no portion of the funds thus accumu
lated, were to be appropriated to the
building of the Road beyond the Union
Springs. It seems that the cars reached
the Uuion Springs more than a year ago;
say the Ist Nov., 1859. Still we hear of
no dividend. And it is said the road is
managed well, and is doing a splendid
business, carrying off daily thousands of
! bales of cotton to the entire satisfaction
of every body. The stockholders want
light upon the subject, and hope the
President will indicate the future policy
that will control and govern its opera
tions. A STOCKHOLDER.

Louisville Market.
Dec. 31.—There has been but a single
transaction in hogs during the week,
which embraced 200 head Wednesday at
$5 25 met. The hog slaughter around
the Falls is about closed, although two or
three houses continue to kill small lots
as they offer. The number killed during
the past week was about 2,000 head. —
The slaughter the present season will
fall short of the slaughter last season
fully 50,000 head.
The transactions in provisions have
been restricted. We note, however, a
permanent advance of 50c. per bbl. on
mess pork, which we quoted at §ls 50
on Monday last. The sales of the week
summed up 1,108 bbls. There was a sale
of GO bbls. on Thursday at §lO per bar
rel, which has been the ruling rate since
that time. There has also been transac
tions of consequence in other articles of
provisions, including a sale of 4,000 bulk
hams on Monday at Bc. 4,000 hams on
Friday at Bc., 400 bulk clear sides at Bc.,
1000 bulk shoulders at the same time at
51c., and 10,000 ibs. country bacon from
wagons at 7c. for the shoulders and 10c.
i for the sides. There was a sale on Fri
j day of 10 casks new bacon at 71c. for
j shoulders, 101 c. for clear sides, and 11c.
for hams. Lard has been neglected, and
the only material sale during the week
was that of 7-3 tierces and 15 kegs on
Friday at 9c. With a short crop of hogs
at every packing point in the West, aud
the stock of old meats exhausted, it
seems somewhat remarkable that provi
sions are lower now than at a correspond
ing period last year. We can find a so
lution of the mystery only in the strin
gency of the money market, which has
been brought about by the base and trea
sonable efforts of the politicians.
There has been a fully average busi
ness in corn and oats, and the sales of
corn summed up about 19,000 bushels at
53 to 55c. for shelled in sacks. The
sale of oats have been limited, including
1,530 bushels at 33 to 35c. with the sacks.
There have been little sales of other
grains and no change in prices.

The whole State is largely interested in
the success of this great work, and we
should regret very much to see it go by
the board. Its great trouble” has been
j lack of capital, and we hope that it will
1 fall into hands who have the mean? to
conduct its operations with energy and
1 success. From what examination we
have been able to give to the subject, we
have no doubt the pro
per management, would prove the best

The Wetumpka Butcher.
Eds. Mail: —Peter Sehewin, the We
tumpka butcher, of whom you gave a
brief notice on the Ist inst., was out gun
ning with hi 9 little son on Saturday last.
After returning home, he drew the char
ges of bird-shot from his own double
barrel and his son’s single-barrel, and re
loaded with buck-shot. Then calling up
Dick, a fine, likely negro man, he blew
his brains out. His wife rushed up, and i
asked him why he shot Dick? He imme
diately turned upon her, pursued her
through the house, out of the house to
the kitchen, the door of which she closed
agsinst him, and he dashed in at the win
dow ; she fled again, he still pursuing,
and finally fired upon her, shooting her
through the abdomen, from the effects
of which she died on Monday morning.
Still under the influence of some de
mon, he then picked up hi3 single barrel
pursued and fired at. but fortunately
missed, bis negro woman, who had taken
refuge under the house. With his un
loaded gun, he then chased his little son,
a lad of twelve, who outran him. Hurl
ing the gun after the boy, he fled to the
woods, and slept out those cold nights,
Saturday, Sunday and Monday ; but
learning that men with a pack hounds
were after him, he came iu and delivered
himself up. Yesterday he was examined
and fully committed on the charge of
murder.
Mrs. Sehewin was an estimable woman
of spotless character, a native Alabam
ian, devoted to her husband, and he too,
apparently to her.
Peter is a small, thin, round-shoul
dered, red-haired German. He pretended
to charge theboy Dick with carrying notes
to Mrs. Schweitf - and says he was not
drunk. But we learn lie had been drink
ing freely for ten days previous; and
though not drunk, his system must have
been well saturated with whisky. Sat
urday evening, after returning from the i
hunt, he only took four driDks.
A singular fact in this connection is,
that Peter’s father is a spiritualist, and
wrote to him lately from Germany, that
there was something wrong in his family
—that he bad better sell out and come
hcni9. This suggestion seems to have
fired a system already highly stimulated,
and made the butcher of cattle a butcher
indeed.
Mr. Douglas’ Flan of Adjustment.
Ou Monday, Dec. 24th, Mr. Douglas
introduced a Joint Resolution into the
Senate proposing amendments to the
Constitution of the United States, with a
view of restoring peace and preserving
the Union. His proposition was read a
first and second time, and referred to the
Committee of Thirteen. It is as follows:
JOINT RESOLUTION.
Resolved by the Senate and House of Rep
resentatives of the United States of America
in Congress assembled, [two thirds of both
Houses concurring,) that the following ar
ticles be and are hereby proposed and
submitted as amendments to the Consti
tution of the United States, which shall
be valid, to all intents and purposes, as
part of said Constitution, when ratified by j
conventions of three-fourths of the sev
eral States.
article xiii.
Sec. 1. Congress shall make no laws
in respect to slavery or servitude in any
Territory of the United States ; and the
status of each Territory in respect to ser
vitude, as the same now exists by law,
shall remain unchanged until the Terri
tory, with such boundaries as Congress
may prescribe, shall have a population of
fifty thousand white inhabitants, when
the white male citizens thereof over the
age of twenty-one years may proceed to
form a constitution and government for
themselves, and exercise all the rights of
self-government consistent with the Con
stitution of the United States; and when
such new State shall contain the requisite
population for a member of Congress,
according to the then Federal ratio of
representation, it shall be admitted into
the Union ou an equal footing with the
original States, with or without slav
ery, as the constitution of such new
State shall provide at the time of admis
sion; and"” in the meantime such new
State shall be entitled to one delegate in
the Senate, to be chosen by the Legisla
ture, and one delegate in the House of
Representatives, to be chosen by the peo
ple having the qualifications requisite for
electors of the most numerous branch of
the Legislature : and said delegates shall
have all the rights and privileges of Sen
ators and Representatives, respectively,
except that of voting.
Sec. 2. No inora territory shall be ac
quired by the United States except by
treaty or by the concurrent vote of two
thirds of each House of Congress, and
when so acquired the status thereof in re
spect to servitude, as it existed at the time
of acquisition, shall remain unchanged ‘
until it shall contain the population
aforesaid for the formation of new States,
when it shall be subject to the terms,
conditions and privileges herein provided
for the existing Territories.
Sec. 3. The area of all new States
shall be as nearly uniform in size as may
be practicable, having due regard to con
venient boundaries aud natural capaci
ties; and shall not be less than sixty nor
more than eighty thousand square miles,
except in case of islands which may con
tain less than that amount.
Sec. 4. The second and third clauses
of the second section of the fourth article
of the Constitution, which provides for
delivering up fugitives from justice and
fugitives irom service or labor, shall have
the same force in the Territories and
new States as in the States of the Union;
and the said clause in respect to fugitives
from justice snail be construed to include
all crimes committed within and against
the laws of the State from which the fu
gitive fled, whether the acts charged be
criminal or not in the State where the
gitive was found.
Sec. 5. The second section of the third
article of the Constitution, in respect to
the judicial power of the United States,
shall be deemed applicable to the Terri
tories and new States as well as to the
States of the Union.
ARTICLE XIV.
Sec. 1. The elective franchise and the
right to hold office, whether Federal,
State, Territorial, or municipal, shall not
be exercised by persons of the African
race, in the whole or in part.
Sec. 2. The United States shall have
power to acquire, from time to time, dis
tricts of country in Africa and South
America for the colonization, at the ex
pense of the Federal Treasury, of such
free negroes and mulattoes as the several
States may wish to have removed from
their limits, and from the District of Col
umbia and such other places as may be
under the jurisdiction of Congress.
Sec. 2. Congress shall have no power
to abolish slavery in the places under its
execlusive jurisdiction and situate within
the limits of States that permit the hold
ing of slaves.
Sxc. 4. Congress shall have no power
to abolish slavery within the Districts of
Columbia so long as it exists in the ad
joining States of Virginia and Maryland,
or either, nor without the consent of the
inhabitants, nor without just compensa
tiou first made to such owners of slaves
as do not consent to such abolishment.—
Nor shall Congress at any time prohibit
officers of the Federal Government or
members of Congress, whose duties re
quire them to be in said District, from
bringing with them their slaves, and
holding them as such during the time
their duties may require them to remain
there, and afterwards taking them from
the District.
Sec. 5. Congress shall have no power
to prohibit or hinder the transportation
of slaves from one State to another, or to
a Territory in wfaichslavesare permitted
bv law to be held, whether such tran3-
portation be by land, navagable rivers, or
by sea ; but the African slave trade shall
be forever suppressed, and it shall be the
duty of Congress to make such laws as
shall be necessary and effectual to pre
sent the migration or importation of
slaves or persons owing service or labor,
into the United States from any foreign
country, place or jurisdiction whatever,
i Sec. 6. In addition to the provisions
of the third paragraph of the second sec
tion of the fourth article of the Constitu
tion, Congress shall have power to pro
vide by law, and it shall be its duty so to
provide, that the United States shall pay
to the owner who shall apply for it the
full value of hie fugitive slave, in all ca
ses when the marshal, or other officer,
whose duty it was to arrest said fugitive,
was prevented from so doing by violence
or intimidation, or when, after arrest,
said fugitive was rescued by force and
the owner thereby prevented and obstruc
ted in the pursuit of his remedy for the
recovery of his fugitive slave, under the
said clause of the Constitution and the
laws made in pursuance thereof. And in
all such cases when the United States
shall pay for such fugitives, they shall
have the right in their own name to sue
the county in which said violence, in
timidation or rescue was committed, and
to receive from it, with interests and
damages, the amount paid by them for
said fugitive slave And the said county,
after it has paid said amounts to the
United States, may,for its indemnity, sue
and recover from the wrong doers or res
cuers by whom the owner was prevented
from the recovery of his fugitive slave in
like manner as the owner himself might
have sued and recovered.
Sec. 7. No future amendment of the
Constithtion shall affect this and the pre
ceding article, nor the third paragraph
of the second section of the fourth article
of said Constitution, and no amendment
shall bo made to the Constitution which
will authorize or give to Congress any
power to abolish or interfere with slavery
in any of the States by whose laws it is
or may be allowed or sanctioned.

ONLY DISCOVERY
WORTHY OF ANY CONFIDENCE FOR
RESTORING
THE BALD AND GRAY!
MANY, since the great discovery of Professor
Wood, have attempted not only to imitate
his Restorative, but profess to have discovered
something that would produce results identical;
but they have all come and gone, being carried
away by the wonderful results of Prof. Wood’s
preparation, and have been forced to leave tbe
field to its resistless sway. Read the following:
Bath, Main*. April ISth, 1809.
Prof. O. J. Wood A Co.— Ousts: The letter I
wrote you in 1856 concerning your valuable Hair
Restorative, and which you have published in this
vicinity and elsewhere, has given rise to numer
ous enquiries touching the facts in thecase. Tho
enquiries are, first, is it a fact of my habitation
and name, as stated in the communication; sec
ond, is it true of ail therein contained; third,
does my hair still continue to be in good order
and of natural color ? To all I can and do answer
invariably yes. My hair is even better than in
any stage of my life for 40 yoarß past, more soft,
thrifty, and better colored; tbe same is trne of
my whiskers, and the only cause why it is not
generally true, is that the substance is washed
off’ by frequent ablution of the face, when if care
were used by wiping the face in close connection
with the whiskers, the same result will follow as
the hair. I have been in tho receipt of a great
number ofletters from all part* of New England,
asking mo if my bair still continues to be good;
as there is so much fraud in the manufacture and
sale of various compounds, as well as this, it has,
no doubt, boen basely imitated and been used, not
only without any good effect, but to absolute in
jury. I have not used any of your Restorative
of any account for some months, and yet my hair
is as good as ever, snd hundreds have examined it
with surprise, as I atn now 61 years cld and not a
gray hair in my in ad or on my face and to prove
this fact I send you a lock of my hair taken off
the past week. I received your favor of twoquait
bottles last eurumer, for which I am very grate
ful ; I gave it to my friends and thereby induced
them to try it. Many were skeptical until after
trial, and then purchased and used it with uni
versal success. I will ask as a favor that you
send mo a test by which T can discover freud in
the Restorative, sold by many, I fear, without
authority from you. A pure article will insure
success, and I believe where good effects do not
follow tbe failure is caused by the impure article
which cursoa tho inventor of the good. I deem it
my duty, as heretofore, to keep you apprised of
the continued effect upon my hair, as X assure all
who enquire of me of my unshaken opinion of
its valuable results.
I remain, dour sir, yours,
A. C. RAYMOND.
Aaeohs Rux. Ey., Nov. 50, 1868.
Prop. 0. J. Wood —Dear Sir: X would certainly
be doing you e. gieat injustice not to make known
to the world, ti e wonderful, as well ks the unex
pected result I have experienced from using ONE
bottle of your Hair Restorative. After using
every kind of Restoratives extant, but without
success, and finding my head nearly destitute cf
hair, I wss finally induced to try a bottle of your
Hair Restorative. Now, candor and justice com
pel me to announce to whoever may read thi?,
that I now possess anew and beautiful growth of
hair, which I pronounce richer and hendsomer
than the original was I will, therefore, take
occasion to recommend this invaluable remedy
to Atl who may foci tbo neeesrity of it
Respectfully yours. Rev. 8. A LLEN SHOCK.
P. 3 —This testimonial cf my r_ .probation for
your valuable medicine (as you are aware of.) is
unsolicited—but if you thick it worthy a place
among the rest, insert if you wish; if not destroy
and say nothing. Yours, Rev. 3. A.B.
Depot, 414 Broadway, and sold by all dealers !
throughout the world.
The Restorative sis put up in bottles of 3 sizes,
viz: urge, medium and small: the small held 1 J-£
a pint and retails for one dollar per bottle; the
medium holds at least twenty per cent, more in
proportion than the small, i ctaiis for two dollars
per bottle: the large holds a quart. 46 pier cent,
snore in proportion, and retails for 83 a bottle.

Gents.—Our firm having sold largo quantities
of your Inimitable Ilafr Restorative, and hearing
it so universaliy commended by many of our
patrons in the highest manner as to its “inimita
ble” qualities, I was induced to give it a trial,
having for Borne years been troubled with falling
of tho hair, dry ner-s of the scalp, as well as tho
additional annoyance of many grey heirs—tho
sculp being apparently diseased. After faithful
ly using one small bo tie of the Restorative, and
fiuuiug its g od qualities apparent, I commenced
the use of the second and my hair is now in bet
ter condition than ever before during my recol
lection. It has stopped falling cut and the scalp
has resumed its functions. 1 most cheerfully re
commend your article a3 baring all the virtues
you claim for it. In addition to my own case, I
can point out at,least fifty persons in our city
who have had the name experience in its use as
myself. Yon are at liberty to u#o this letter aa

commend your article pc-r son ally on any and all
