ONLY A HAIR.
I Written on seeing the sailors on shipboard
“heave the lead,” and drawing it up, take from it
a long silken hair.]
Only a hair! a human hair,
Drawn from the ocean’s bed ;
A soft and clinging thread of gold
Found on the “sounding lead.”
Only a hair ! but a tale of woe
May be bound by that silken tie;
To an heart which now wrapped in Griers 6tarless
night,
Sits waiting its call to the sky.
Only a hair! but who may know
The anguish its sight may bring;
Mayhap ’twas a love, long lost, long dead,
Round which dear memories cling.
O! who may know and who may tell
Os that agony, wild and deep,
Which tell, with the simoon’s withering breath,
On the heart too broken to weep.
Oh ! who may tell of the joys crushed
When that radiant head went down •
Os the peerless life, of the noble aims.
Which a grave ’neath the sea weed found.
Then give it back to the waves again—
'Tls sacred to some sad heart;
flack to the coral groves let it float—
Let It nestle in sea flower’s heart.

ANOTHER MAGNIFICENT OIFT TO THE
SOUTHERN EDUCATIONAL FUND—A MIL
LION AND MORE —LETTER FROM MR.
PEABODY TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE
FUND.
At a special meeting of the Trustees
of the Peabody Educational Fund, held
at Newport on Thursday, July 1, Hon
Robert C. Winthrop in the chair, the
following letter was received from Mr.
Peabody:
Gentlemen: When I established the
trust of which ynn Imvo charge, It Wllß
my intention, if its results and progress
should prove satisfactory, to return in
throe years to my native land, and to
make further provision for carrying out
the plans which experience should have
shown to be productive of encourage
ment and benefit to the people of the
South.
My precarious state of health has
rendered it imprudent for me to wait
for the full period of my intended ab
sence, and I have now come among
you, in order to proceed at once to the
fulfilment of my purpose.
I have constantly watched, with
great interest and careful attention, the
proceedings of your board, and it is
most gratifying to me to be able to ex
press my warmest thanks for the inter
est and zeal you have manifested in
maturing and carrying out the designs
of my letter of trust, and to assure you
of my cordial concurrence in all the
steps you have taken.
At the samo time, I must not omit to
congratulate you, and all who have at
heart the best interests of this educa
tional enterprise, upon your obtaining
the highly valuable services of Dr
Sears as your general agent —services
valuable not merely in the organization
of schools and of a system of public ed
ucation, but in the good effect which
his conciliatory and sympathizing
course has had* wherever he has met
or become associated with the commu
nities of the South, in social or business
relations.
And I bog to take this opportunity of
thanking, with all my heart, the people
of the South themselves, for tho cordial
spirit with which they have received
the trust, and for the energetic efforts
which they have made, in co-operation
with yourselves and Dr. Scars, for car
rying out the plans which have been
proposed and matured for the diffusion
of tho blessings of education in their
respective States.
Hitherto, under the system adopted
by your general agent, and sanctioned
by you, four of the Southern States
have not been assisted from tho fund
placed in your charge, and I concur
with you in the policy thus pursued,
as, I am sure, will the citizens of those
four States, and all who have at heart
the highest permanent good of our be
loved country.
For it was most necessary that at
the outset those States and portions of
States which had suffered most from
the ravages of war, and were most des
titute of educational means and privi
leges, should bo first and specially
aided.
I believe tho good sense and kind feel
ing of the people of these States will
continue to acquiesce, for tho present,
in your course of devoting, under the
care of Dr. Sears, the greater part of
tho fund to the same States which have
received its benefits for tho past two
years, with, perhaps, the addition of
Texas, which State I am advised the
general agent will visit during tho com
ing autumn or winter, to ascertain its
educational requirements, and to give
such aid as shall be requisite and can
bo afforded, where it shall be most
needed.
I have the same sympathy with
every one of the States ; and were all
alike needing assistance, I should wish
each alike to share in the benefits of
tho trust.
As the portions aided shall respect
ively grow in prosperity, and become
self-sustaining in their systems of edu
cation, their respective allotments of
the fund will be applied to other desti
tute communities, and thus its benefits
will, 1 earnestly hope and trust, ulti
mately reach every section of tho vast
field committed to your care.
It is my hope and belief, and this
opinion is fully confirmed by my inter
views with Dr. Sears, that with the
additional amount which I now place
in your hands, the annual income of the
fund alone may be found sufficient to
sustain and extend the work you have
so well begun ; and it is my desire that
when the trust is closed, and the final
distribution made by yourselves or
your successors, all the fourteen South
ern States, including Maryland, Ken
tucky, Missouri, and Texas, shall share
in that distribution according to their
needs.
In accordance with what I have al
ready said of my intention, at the time
I established this trust, to add thereto,
if its success were such as 1 am now
assured has attended it, I now give to
you and your successors the following
securities, viz:
$190,000 Belvidere and Delaware
Railroad Company’s six per cent, bonds,
first mortgage; dividends loth June
and 15th December, due 1877; principal
and interest guaranteed by the Camden
and Amboy Railroad Company and
New Jersey Transportation Company.
$301,025 Syracuse and Binghamton
Railroad Company’s seven per cent,
bouds ($198,500 due in 1876; dividend
October 1 and April 1 ; 84525 payable
October 1, 1870 ; 898,000, dividends
from Ist June in 1887.) This is an ex
cellent road, and the stock at par; but
the security is rendered perfect by the
guartmtee ot both principal and inter
est by the Lackawanna Coal Company,
of Pennsylvania.
$79200 Alabama State five per cent,
bonds, SlJVttip due 1861, $21,000 due
i872, in^f-dividends
from Nov of ® l * rhoma* B£«-
$35,300''V aD , and Be e oudlyto Lad> .™ t
p«d to be gradually paid on ~“*
$79,000 City of Louisville six per
cent, bonds; dividends April and Oc
tober, due 1883.
$69,600 Louisiana consolidated bank
fives; fully guaranteed by State of
Louisiana, and payable in 1870, 1872,
1874, and 1876.
SBB,OOO Ohio and Mississippi Railroad
first mortgage 7 per cent, bonds; divi
dends Ist July and Ist January, all
payable July Ist, 1872.
$90,000 Columbus, Chicago and In
diana Central Railroad first mortgage
bonds, 7 per cent.; dividends Ist April
and Ist October ; due in 1908; guaran
teed by Pennsylvania Central Railroad
Company.
$30,000 Pittsburg City 4 per centj
bonds; dividends January and July;
due in 1913.
SBOOO Pittsburg City 5 per cent, bonds;
dividends January and Julyjduein 1913.
$19,000 Louisiana State sixes; divi
dends January and July.
810,000 New Orleans City sixes ; divi
dends January and July.
$875 cash.
Amounting in all to one million of
dollars. These stocks are all of the very
highest character for security, and the
dividends are certain to be promptly
paid.
The principal sum of one million dol
lars, given by my first Letter of Trust, is
still intact; the interest of which, being
added to that of my present gift, makes
the annual revenue of the Trust upwards
one hundred and thirty thousand dollars;
a sum which, in the opinion of your hon
orable chai rman and your general agent,
is amply sufficient lo meet all the require
ments of the Trust, without infringing
upon the capilal, until the time arrives
for the final distribution, as before stated.
In addition to the foregoing, I give to
you Florida six per cent, bonds, which,
with overdue coupons, amount t 05384,000.
These bonds, like the Mississippi bonds,
in my first gift, must before many years
be paid.
The Territory of Florida obtained the
money on these bonds iu Europe at about
par, and loaned it to the Union Bankas
capital. _
The territory * °ouie ume, a
i.igu rate of interest, but after the bank
suspended, paid the bondholders nothing,
but referred them to the Union Bank,
saying: “Obtain what you can from the
Uuion Bank, and it will then be time
enough to come to us.” Large amounts
of these bonds were purchased by planters
at about fifty per cent., and used to pay
mortgages held by the Union Bank, until
there was nothing more left to be paid;
and the small amount of these bonds now
outstanding, (not exceeding, I believe,
two millions of the original bonds,) must.
[ think, before long, induce Florida, as an
act of justice loug delayed, to make pro
vision for their payment.
All the stocks I have given as above are
to be held iu trust by yourselves and your
successors, for the same purpose and under
the same conditions as the funds given
you by my original letter creating your
trust.
I do this with the earnest hope and in
the sincere trust that, with God’s blessing
upon the gift and upon the deliberations
and future action of yourselves and your
gem ral agent, it may enlarge the sphere
of usefulness already entered upon, and
prove a permanent and lasting boon, not
only to toe Southern States, but to the
whole of our dear country, which I have
ever loved so well, but never so much as
now in my declining years, and at this time
(probably the last occasion I shall ever
have to address you), as I look back over
the changes and progress of nearly three*
quarters of a century. And I pray that
Almighty God will grant to it a future as
happy and noble in the intelligence and
virtues of its citizens as it will
in unexampled power and prosperity.
I am, with great regard, your humble
servant, George Peabody.
Salem , June ‘IMh.
The above letter having been read and
considered, was referred to a special com
mittee, consisting of Governor Aiken, of
South Carolina; Governor Graham, of
North Carolina, and Hou Samuel Watson,
of Tennessee, who subsequently reported
the following resolutions, which were
unanimously adopted and signed:
RESOLUTIONS.
Resolved, by the Trustees of the Pea
body Education Fund, That we receive
with tire highest gratification the letter
of our munificent friend, Mr. Peabody,
announcing so large an addition to our
means for carrying on Iris noble designs
for education iu the Southern States ; that
we thankfully recognize in this act, as
well as in the express language of his let
ter, his approbation of the policy we have
thus far pursued, and his appreciation of
tlie success thus far achieved, and that we
hasten to assure him of our deep sense of
the great liberality and wisdom of his en
dowment, and of our warm persoual grat
itude for the confidence he has reposed
in us.
Resolved, That, in accepting this sec
ond princely gift, we pledge ourselves to
proceed in the executions of the Trust
committed to us, with renewed resolution,
that nothing on our part shall be wanting
to secure the entire success of au enter
prise so full of interest and importance in
itself, and which canuot fail to produce
the most valuable and lasting influences
upon tire harmony and welfare of our
whole country.
Resolved, That we heartily and affec
tionately congratulate Mr. Peabody on
being permitted to return iu safety to his
native land lo fulfil this cherished pur
pose of his heart, and that we implore our
Heavenly Father that his strength may
be restored, and his life spared uutil he
shall have witnessed still more the fruits
of his beneficent plans, and shall have en
joyed still longer the respect and gratitude
of his country and of the world.
Resolved, That these resolutions be
communicated to Mr. Peabody, with the
signatures of all the trustees present at
this meeting, and that our excellent gen
eral agent, Dr. Sears, be invited to affix
iris name with ours in attestation of the
gratification and gratitude which are
common to us all.
After some other business, and prayer
by Bishop Mcllvaiue, the meeting was
dissolved.
“Up in a Balloon.” —French jour
nals mention tho construction of a bal
loon designed to go to the North Pole.
The most distinguished aeronauts in
France are interested in the project,
and government aids it. The balloon
is made of some very elastic fabric
which will swell in the upper and more
rarified air and make room for the
expansion of gas without bursting. It
is the largest ever made, and will carry
ten persons, supplies for months, and
four thousand pounds of ballast. With
this aerial vehicle the voyagers expect
to settle the question of an open polar
sea and disperse all other mysteries of
that unexplored portion of the globe.
French scientists do not ridicule the
undertaking; though, on the other
hand, they do not pin their faith on it.
They are willing to wait and see what
will come of the enterprise. Some
American journalists, who are in the
habit of poking fun at every ingenious
and costly effort to extend man’s do
minion into the air, could profitably
take a lesson in modesty from the
French philosophers, and also from the
taith and hope of the Aeronautical So
ciety of Great Britain, whose president
is the learned and cautious Duke of
Argyll, and which numbers on its roll
some of the most renowned physicists
ot the age. It would be somewhat
mortifying to the pride of skeptics if
the French balloon should circle about
the North Pole, and bring home its
sengers safe and sound, with full re
ports of the polar wonders; and it
would dull the point of many a jest if
the San Francisco people who are now
making a balloon with steam apparatus
for assisting its navigation, should ac
tually accomplish the trip to New York
inside of two days. We may prudently
decline a seat in the “Aviators car,
but let us not be too free with our laughs
at those who are willing to stake their
money and their lives on the venture.

j u n e 2- eod A w 1 m
Scrofula, or King’s Evil,
is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variously
caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the venereal infection. What
ever he its origin, it is hereditary in the con
stitution, descending “ from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation ; ” indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, “I
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children.”
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu
tions not only suffer from scrofulous com
plaints, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse
quently vast numbers "perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this taint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de
cimates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fection, and their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an alterative medicine, and in
vigorate it by Healthy food and exercise.
Such a medicine we supply in
AYFiR’S
Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla,
the most effectual remedy which the medical j
skill of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malady. It is com
bined from the most active remedials that have
been discovered for the expurgation of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it should he employed for the cure of
not only Scrofula, hut also those other affec
tions which arise from it, such as Eruptive
and Skin Diseases, St. Anthony’s Fire,
Rose, or Erysipelas, Pimpi.es, Pustules,
Blotches, BLAiNsand Boils,Tumors, Tetter
and Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ringworm,
Rheumatism, Syphilitic and Mercurial Dis
eases, Dropsy, Dyspepsia, Demlity, and,
indeed, all Complaints arising prom Vitia
ted or Impure Bi.ood. The popular belief
in “ impurity of the blood ”is founded in truth, i
for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The j
particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa
rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid, \
without which sound liPalth is impossible in

Ague Cure 3
FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF
Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Ague,
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed
for the whole class of diseases originat
ing in biliary derangement, caused by
the Malaria of Miasmatic Countries.
We are enabled here to offer me community a
remedy which, while it cures the above complaints
with certainty, is still perfectly harmless in any
quantity. Such a remedy is invaluable in districts
where these afflicting disorders prevail. This
“ Cure ” expels the miasmatic poison of Fever
and Ague from the system, and prevents the de
velopment of the disease, if taken on the first ap
proach of its premonitory symptoms. It is not only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
of complaints, but also the cheapest. The large
quantity we supply for a dollar brings it within the
reach of every body ; and in bilious districts, where
Fever and Ague prevails, every-body should
have it and use it freely both for cure and protec
tion. A great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure of Intermittents is that it contains no Quinine
or mineral, consequently it produces no quinism or
other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu
tion. Those cured by it are left as healthy as if
They ha 1 never had the disease.
lever and Ague is not alone the consequence of
the miasmatic poison. A great variety of disor
ders arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blind
ness, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Pal
pitation, rain ful Affection of the Spleen, Hyster
ics, Pain in the Bowels, Colic, Paralysis and De
rangement of the Stomach, all of which, when
originating in this cause, put on the intermittent
type, or become periodieal. This “ Cure ” expels
the poison from the blood, and consequently cures
them all alike. It is an invaluable protection to
immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malarious districts. If taken occa
sionally or daily while to the infection,
that will be excreted froni the system, and cannot
accumulate in sufficient quantity to ripen into dis
ease. Hence it is even more valuable for protec
tion than cure, and few will ever suffer
rmittents if they avail themselves of the prcU-tion
this remedy affords.

rpHE STOMACH is the great centre which in
l fluences the health or disease of the system;
abused, or debilitated by excess, indigestion, of
fensive breath, and physical prostration are the
na ural consequences. Allied to the brain, il is
tbe source of headaches, mental depression, ner
vous complaints, and unrefrechlng sleep. The
Liver becomes affected,and aenerates bilious dis
orders, pains In the side, etc. The Bowels sym
pathize by costlvcuess, dlarrhcea, and dysentery.
The principal action of these Pills is on the Hl«,rn
ach, and the Liver, Lungs, Bowels, and Kidneys
participate In their recuperative and regenera
tive operation.
ERYSIPELAS AND SALT RIIEVM
Are two of the most common and virulent dis
orders prevalent on this con tint nt. To these the
Ointment Is especially antagonistic. Its modus
operandi is first to eradicate the venom, and then
complete the cure.

ERUPTIONS ON THE SKIN,
Arising from a bad state of the blood or ecronic
diseases are eradicated, and a clear and trans
parent surface regained by the restorative action
ot this Ointment. It surpasses many of the cos
metics and other toilet appliances In Us power to
dispel rashes and other disfigurements of the
lace.

Whether in the young or old, married or single,
at the dawn of womanhood or the turn of life,

ence that a marked improvement is soon percep
tible in the health of the patient. Beinga purely
vegetable preparation, they are a safe and reliable
remedy for all classesof lemales in every condi
tion of health anil station of life.
PILES AND FISTULA.
Every form and feature of these prevalent and
stubborn disorders is eradicated locally and en
tirely by the use of this emollient. Warm fomen
tations should precede its application. Its heal
ing qualities will be found to be thorough and

1 have received many testimonials from professions
and medical men, as uiy almanacs ami various publi

it upon easy terms, 1 shall use a great deal of it. 1
am aware that the use ol such articles is contrary to
the teachings and practice of a great majority of il>n
regular line ot M. D.’s, but 1 Bee no just cause or good
sense in discarding a remedy wbicb we know to be
efficient, simply because we may be ignorant of in
combination For my part I shall make it a rule to
use all and any means io alleviate suffering bumnit/
winch 1 may be able to command ; not bvsitatmg
because someone more ingenious than rnyselt uny
have learned its effects first, and secured Ihe sole right
to secuie that knowledge. However, i am by no
