It is a most agreeable dressing, which is at once harmless and effectual, for pre¬ serving the liair. It restores, with the gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray, light, and red hair, to a rich brown, or deep black, as may be desired. By its use thin hair is thickened, and baldness often though not always cured. It checks falling of the hair immediately, and causes a new growth in all cases where the glands are not decayed; while to brashy, weak, or otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitality and strength, and renders it pliable. The Vioob cleanses the scalp, cures and prevents the formation of dandruff; and, by its cooling, stimulating, and soothing properties, it heals most if not all of the humors aud diseases peculiar to the scalp, keeping it cool, clean, and soft, under which conditions diseases of the scalp and hair are impossible. As a Dressing for Ladies’ Hair, The Vigob is incomparable. It is color¬ less, contains neither oil nor dye, and will not soil white cambric. It imparts an agreeable and lasting perfume, and as an artit!e for the toHet ;t is economical and unsurpassed in its excellence. PREPARED BY Df. J. C.

Miscellaneous. THE BRAKBMAN’S STORY. t rough-looking nuu Y Yes, perhaps I am. We ain’t all of us responsible for our outside husk, no more than a horsa chestnut or a iiazel nut is. The kind of a life I lead can’t be lived iu whits kid gloves and dress coats. I wasn’t brought up with many advantages, and I'm only a brakeman on the Rensselaer and Sara toga line. Old Jones was telling you about, me, was lie, sir ? He’d better hold Ins longue. There’s more profit a bit 1 amt jects of conversation than I am. But Old Jones moans well enough, and ; if in'.'i’lfi you to auk me bow that stripe of hair came ou my black ui.utc; r Mt i frtiV n. sts to go back oil ,iiim.— Oh, yvfli nuedu't l>eg my pardon sir 1 1 don’t?mind talking about it now, though tha time wa* when I couldn’t speak of it without a big lump coming iu my throat. Jl’e hadn’t been married long, I’olly and me, when it happened. Polly was as trim aud bright-eyed a slip of a girl as ever yon’d wish to see. She was one ef the waitresses in the Albany lunch room; aud the first time I ever set eyee upon ber I made up my mind to make that girl my wife. Ho, when they raised my wages, l took heart and asked her if she would have them with me; with * wedding ring thrown into the bargain. “I># you really mean it, Jake ?” said sh*, looking me full in the faco, with those dark blue eyes of hers, that are like stars in tho night. ‘T do really mean it, Folly,” said I. “Then,” said she, putting both her hands in mine, “I’ll trust you. I’ve no living relation to advise me, so I can only take counsel with my own heart.” Soino were married. I rented a little one-story house, under the hill on the height that overlooked the Hudson—a cozy place with a good sized wood-pile at the rear, for winter meant winter in those parts, and tho snow used to be drifted up even with our door yard fence many and many a cold gray morning. Blackbird, and the Saturday evening I spent with the boys, titter my train was safely run on the side track at the June t j ou “IVliy, Polly, girl,” said I, where’s the harm ? A man can’t live by self, like an oyster in his shell, aud * social glass never yet harmed any one.” “No,” said Polly, not a social glass, Jak 1 . but the habit. And if you would only put every five-cent piece that you spend for liquor into little Bertie’s tiny saving bank—” “Fsbaw 1” said I. “I’m not a drunk¬ ard, and I never mean to become one. And , . no one 1-kes . to . be preached .... to by 11a wi e, o v. emun tar t i.tt, my girl, and you’ll save yourself a deal of trounl*. . ff 1 kissed her and went away.

Thank goodness they’re over and * _ oltA , That afternoon, as 1 stood on the hack platform of my ear, with arms foldeil and ray eyes fixed on the snowv waste of flat fields through which the iron truck seemed to extend , , like . an endless black serpent, 1 looked my own life in the face. I made up mv mind that I had |n» behaving ^ like i brute ’ It hat those . senseless fellows at are the White Blackbird to me,” muttered I, “as compared with one of Polly’s 1 sweet, bright looks ? I will give llie whole . . thing 1 11 draw , the .... line just up. here now. We shall bo off duty early to-night. I’ll go home and astonish folly!” Hut, as night fell, the Winding drift i of a great storm came with it. We were belated by the snow which collected ou the rails, aail when we reached Earl dale there was a little girl, who had been sent on in the care of the conduc¬ tor who must wait either three or four hours for a way train in the cold and cheerless station, or bo taken home across a snowy field by some one who knew the way. 1 thought of iny own little children. “I’ll take her, said I—and lifting her up, I gathered my coarse warm coat about her and started for the long, cold walk under the whispering pices along the edge of tho river. I honestly believe she would have frozen to death if she had been left iu the cold station until the way train could call for her. And when l saw by the old kitchen time¬ piece that it was ten o'clock. “Polly will think 1 have slipped back into tho Slough of Bos pond, I said (o myself, with half a smile; but I’ll give her an agreeable surprise!” Plowing down aiuid tho snow-drift, through a grove of piue trees that edged a ravine at tho back of my house 1 sprang lightly on the door-step; the door was stiut and locked. 1 went around to the front, llure 1 eft acted an entrance, but the fire was dying on the hearth, and little lUrtie, tucked up In his crib called out: * Fain*, Ltthat you / “Where is mamma, my son ?” said I, looking eagerly around at the desolate room. “Gone out with tho baby in tier arms te look for you,” be said, “Didn’t you meet her papa ?” I stood a minute in silence, “Lio still, Bertie,” said J, in a voice that sounded at range and husky even to myself. *‘I will go and bring her back.” And! thought with dismay, of the blinding »now-slorm oulsnle, the treach¬ erous gorges which lay between there and tho IV hi to Blackbird, the trackless woods, which It was difficult enough to find one’s way even in tha sunshine of noonday, and—worst of all—the lonely track, across which an ‘express’ shot like a meteor at a few minutes before midnight. Oh, heaven ! what possible doom might I uot have brought upon myself by the wretched passion in which l had gone away that morning. The town clock, sounding dim and muffled through tiie storm, struck cloven as I hurried down the bill. Eleven—and who knew what » length of time might elapse before 1 could find her ? And like a fiery phanatsmagoria before my mind's eye, I beheld the wild rush of the midnight express, and dreaded—I know uol what. For all that I could realize was, that tlie storm was growing fiercer A . * 8tMdl,J . ...

And when, at length, I came out close to a ruined wood aud water station on the edge of the »rack, I knew that I was full half mile below the White Blackbird. And in the distance I heard the long shrill shriek of tho midnight train. Rome one else hail heard it, too. for as I htood thus I saw, faintly visible through the blinding snow, a shadowy figure issue from the ruined sited and come oljt upon t) , e track lookinj? with a tendered uncertain air up and down— the Iona of Folly, my wife, with the lit¬ tle baby in her arms !

The prize is for al( that faithfully labor. Grasp at the laurels of t he liu man Mind. 11 is the best gain that can he produced. Wheth¬ er rich or poor, in tho pursuit of any business, strive to rise upon your own mental salvation. If man ever reached eminence in life, it was to more or less extent, owing to the result of mind. Hence it (the miud), should he highly valued. The Human Mind is secondly the noblest object of all men. What is it, that makes a great man. Tis not pliysb cal strength, 'tis not popularity, >tis not the fashions of tliis or any age, peo¬ ple or country. True manhood and WO manhood consists in a combination of good principles am! noble mimledtiess. Blot out the goodly influence of mind, and society will become demoralized and every imaginable disaster will take pos¬ session of the rights and pleasures of the human race, The “Human Mind” commences its progress a* soon as the capacity of reason is given. The ago, when this takes place, is not and never will be in my humble opinion exactly known. Tho miml is never so much at rest as many iu this enlightened day re¬ gard it. To sleep does not necessarily prevent it from being active in some cer¬ tain degree of sensibility. 'Tis forever groveling or deceiving the power of name. All are striving for the mastery. Hut the prize to tie awarded to the “Human Mind,” is for integrity, honor and hap piuess. Some of the most difficult prob¬ lems upon record, emanated from a dose, while all was calm, nothing to disturb.peaue, Tbeu save nature’s own sound. it such a thing as mutation, ,a»4 that’s only n relayaUmi of business A kind of diveraio* and retirement from the cares and duties of life or whatever thoughts may attack its course. It is self sustained without measure or heaviness. It is never nutter. It can only bo seen anil folt in motives to mental exertion. There are as many different minds as there are numbers of them in existence, no two are alike. Every worthiness one essentially vary either in Ult upon the medium platform, or that of superiority. The moral na turuasl conceive it to be, enters and proceeds from the intluenco of mind. Not indapsiideutly, but each in accor¬ dance with harmony, fa the complete construction of the Human frame. They act in concert and designed man¬ agement. How full of admonition! how grandly sublime! how beautiful is the scenery! In contemplating Urn strength, the elegance and zenith of mind take a chase with it. This world to the mind is a scene of pleasure and enjoyment. Its domain,however, is iudiscrlbable, yet its calculations are ail in pot feet unity. Counting first elemen¬ tary rudiments. Then it soars to a high¬ er elevation. Hiving into the height and depth of atmosphere, water, season, dis¬ tance and objects of eminence. VVUile in this strain reflection is colored to the fact of the successful marches of intel¬ lect. To make this agreeable remain ber the dark ages, whan to tho mind, mau was in a stal e of gross ignorance, superstition and idolatry. Hut since i that time a great revolution lias taken j place.
