The reputation this ex cellent medicine enjoys, is derived from its cures, many of which are truly marvellous. Inveterate cases of Scrofulous dis ease, where the system seemed saturated with corruption, have been purified and cured by it. Scrofulous affections and disorders,which were ag gravated by tlie scrofu lous contamination until tlicv were painfully afflicting, have been radically cured in such great numbers in almost every sec tion of the country, that the public scarcely need to be informed of its virtues or uses. Scrofulous poison is one of the most destructive enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unl'elt tenant of the organism undermines the constitution, and invites the attack of enfeebling or fatal diseases, without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again, it seems to breed infection throughout the body, and then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop into one or other of its hideous forms, either on the surface or among the vitals. In the latter, tuber elcs may be suddenly deposited in the lungs or heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it shows its presence by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcer ations on eomo part of the body. Hence the occa sional nse of a bottle of this Sarsaparilla is ad visable, even when no active symptoms of disease appear. Persons afflicted with the following com plaints generally find immediate relief, and, at length, cure, by the use of this SARSAPAR1F J A: St. Anthony's Eire, Hose or Erysipelas, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ringworm, Sore Eyes, Sore Ears, and other eruptions or vi: iblc forms of Scrofulous disease. Also in the more concealed forms, as Dyspepsia, Dropsy, Heart Disease, Eits, Epilepsy, Neuralgia, I it the various Ulcerous affections of the muscu 1- and nervous systems. Syphilis or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases are cured by it, though a loug time is required for i ubdumg these obstinate maladies by any medicine, jmt long continued use of this medicine will cure tlMrcomplaint. Fcucorrhaa. or Whites, Uterine l Irerattons, and Female Diseases, are com monly soon relieved and ultimately cured by its purifying and invigorating effect. Jlinutc Direc tions for each case arc found in our Almanac, sup plied gratis. Rheumatism and Gout, when caused bv accumulations of extraneous matters in tlie blood, yield quickly to it, as also Fiver Complaints, Torpidity, Congestion or Inf am I mat ion of the Fiver, sudEaundice, when arising, as they often do, from fhe rankling poisons in tho Mood. This SARSAVAR1FFA is a great rc Florer for the strength and vigor of the system. Those who arc Fanguid and Fistless, Despon dent, Sleepless, and troubled with Nervous Ap prehensions or Fears, or any of tlie affections symptomatic of Weakness, will find immediate relief and convincing evidence of its restorative power upon trial.

To the Editor of the Kennebec Journal: The Portland Argus froths at the mouth on Speaker Blaine’s letter of acceptance,’and after a column of abuse proposes to annihi late that gentleman by a series of conundrums which it calls upou him to answer. The most weighty, lengthy and serious of them is the following: “How he, having been elected to Congress when comparatively pour ami paying less than a hundred dollars a year rent fur his family residence, lias been able in the public service, at not over $0,000 a year legitimate wages, to “lay up” from one hundred to oDe hundred and fifty thousand ayear,(as currently report ed and never as yet denied lhat we have seen) and at the same time living in a style of opu lence hardly surpassed by the most wealthy?’’ In the first place Mr. Blaine never lived in a‘’rented house” in Augusta at .any time, for one huhdred dollars a year or any other sum. Ilis present residence was purchased by him more than a year before he took his seat in Cougress, and his style of living, so far as his friends and neighbors know, is precisely the same now that it was then. He paid the enormous and extravagant sum of live thou sand dollars for his residence we believe, and iina gliinnlpil llic V... mw j paired his fence. II the Argus or I be Demo cratic party desire to know the particulars we will inquire. As to Mr. Blaine’s laying up $100,000 to $150,000 a year—everybody reads such non sense with contempt. It is too ridiculous even for campaign talk—and too silly for any paper but the Argus to retail. Why not put his annual savings at a million and be don? with it? Mr. Blaine's sworn income outside of official salary has lor a series of yeai-s been from five to seven thousand dollars. He pays taxes in the city ot Augusta on* a valuation of .about thirty-two thousand dollars, and is known be side to have valuable property in Pennsylva nia which he purchased, the Argus will please observe, in 1857-8, when Mr. Blaine edited the Portland Advertiser. The pur chase of coal property at that time was one in which several capitalists in Port’and and on Hie Kennebec were urged by Mr. Blaine to take an interest. They all declined and Mr. Blaine weut heavily in debt lor the whole. It is generally understood among Mr. Blaine’s friends that the investment proved very re munerative. The complaint that Me. Blaine owns property in Pennsylvania and spends the income of it in Maine, is one that we can not see the precise lorce of Irom a Maine standpoint! We do not see what Midne has to complain of in the matter. me uiius ium3 inii-iiy sutieu compose me whole history of Mr. Blaine’s property—about wbicli the Democratic party have made them selves so restless and ridiculous during the past two or three years. If it will be any satisfaction, however, to the Argun, we will give it as our opiuiou that Mr. Blaine, it he lives, is destined to be a wealthy man. Ue is careful, prudent, indus trious aud enPrgetic in business affairs, enjoys in a large degree the confidence of several of the leading capitalists in Maine anil olliei New lEngland States, and can at any time command money by the trust reposed in liis sagacity and integrity by these capitalists. But Mr. Blame's financial tile and his po litical life are two distinct things. We per sonally know that at tliis very time he is urged by liis leading associates in business to give up political life entirely and accept a compensation which is more than double his official pay, and which would leave hi“» at home nearly the entire year. But Mr. Blaine would be strangely constituted *f at liis time of life he should wish to retire from a sphere of public duty in which his success has been so gratifying,—and if be should desire it, bis Kennebec constituency would very unani mously object. At other times tbe Argun has made itself veiy busy about Speaker Blaine’s Washington residence. It is quite true that Mr. Blaiue lias kept bouse in very genteel, but not ex travagant style, since be was Speaker. He purchased a good residence, made partial pay ment, and moitgaged it for tbe remainder, and thereby made a large annual saving as compared with tbe usual manner of taking a furnished house. It has always been the cus tom of the Speaker to keep house artd give “receptions,” aud we are glad to know that the credit of Maine for hospitality has not suf fered by tbe course pursued by Mr. Blaine. Will tbe Argus have the magnanimity to copy this article, and li t its readers see and know a frank statement of tacts? We expect it, of course, to accompany tire publiciUwu with its usual amount of bosh, but r..I s events of the war, and is as graphic and enter taining as a romance, while possessing all the higher qualities of a veracious history. It will be certain to find its way into the library of every man who desires to hear both sides of the question, and future generations will regard it as the principal authority on the Southern side. It is for sale by subscription only, and agents are wanted in every county. The Princes of Art: Painters, Sculptors and Engravers. Mrs. S. E. Urbino has translated from the French, in a very entertaining man ner, sketches of the lives, habits and promi ueut traits of thirty of the old masters, in the then great divisions ol^art. Of the architects and sculptors she selects seven, beginning with Phidias and ending with the time of Ca" nova. Aristides leads the array of twenty-one painters, of nearly all the schools; while only two engravers, Albert Durer and Callot, are treated. The translator has giveD, in the be ginning of the book, twenty pages ot introduc tion, in which she gives the reader much valu able information concerning the tine arts, their history, method, classes, &c. Published by Lee Shepard, Boston, and sold in Port land by Dresser Ayer. Bear and Forbear is the last volume of Oli ver Optic’s Lakeshore series. Mr. Adams’ pleasant style of narrative and ready sympathy with boys’ sports, hopes and aspirations, has given him an unbounded popularity with them.

We have spoken o each volume of this new edition of Grace .Aguilar’s books as they have appeared from the Dress ul ADnleton Co. New York. Hav ing ed'fled a former generation They ar6~agam-— offered to the reading public. The author took iui iivi itn me fair aim renowned women of tho Old Testament, and the book is calculated to make its mark in the world of literature. On its original publication tho book had then tbe comparatively novel interest—apart from tbe biblical—ot discussing the influeneo of wo men in society, and that intarest has largely increased, since that time, as everybody is aware. For many reasons, the repulilication is an opportune one, and a second generation of readers will be as ready as tbe first to recog nize the merit of the Israelitisb authoress. Messrs. Bailey Noyes have all the volumes of the series. T1IG MAGAZINES. The September number ot Harper contain’ twenty articles besides the five Editorial De partments. “The Mediterranean of the Pa cific,” with which the Number opens, is aue scription of Puget Sound and its vicinity. In connection with tbe projected Northern Pa cific Railroad. which will have one of itst. r mini on Puget Sound, this paper, which is pro fusely illustrated, will have a peculiar interest. “Among the Peaches” is a timely paper, also illustrated, and is replete with intoresting in formation regarding the Peach harvest. Three serial stories are given in this Number. “The Old Love Again,” by Annie Thomas, ap proaches ils conclusion: “Antcros” is still con tinued; and “Anne Furness,” anew serial by the author of “Mabel’s Progress,” “Aunt Mar garet’s Trouble,” and “Veronica,” Is com menced, promising to be the most interesting serial of tho season. Two excellent short sto ries are given, and four poems—one cf the lat ter by Harriet Prescott Spofford. “Female Suffrage”—a letter to tho Christian \V»ffien of America, by a daughter of JaJ*»es Fenimoro Cooper—is concluded. It*9 a strong, earnest* and womanly aw'"*1 against the theory that women exercise political function. “A I**y Among the Quakers” tells tho story ol the visit ot an old Quaker and his wife to Pres ident Liucoln inl8C2—a visit that more than anything else seems to have decided the Presi dent to issue his Emancipation Proclamation “Frederick the Great” still continues to in crease in iuterest Tho sketch ol the "Old Dossauer,” in this patt is a brilliant and effec tive picture. “In Wall Street, which reveals tho iuside operations and characters of a great banking-house, is novel, and as eutertaining as a story. M. D. Conway contributes two pa pers to this Number—tho second part ot his “Saunter on Canterbury," which among other things gives a graphic description of the in stallation of the present archbishop, aud “Foot prints of Charles Dickens,” which is a thought ful and interesting paper on tbe connection between Dickens’s works and the localities iu and about London, which furnished the nov elist with liis most striking pictures and char acters. Putnam came to us as the pioucer of the September magazines inland itjis a very res pectable number. The opening paper, which is the best in the number, gossips about tb« old Knickerbocker society of [New York.— “Salt Water Etl>ics”is a[quiet piece of morali zing on sea-sickness and kindred topics.— Other articles treat of the Brontes and their home, the Danish peasants, Arctic travellers apartment houses, and society versus insanity. There are two or thrte shortjdories, several ordinary poems, and the usual amont of edi torial and literary notes. Boring, Short Hanuun have it regularly. Godey for September will bo welcomed hearty by those who have “nothing to weir” for tho-fall season and desire to be informed of the newest styles and latest fashions, or have exhausted their ingenuity in following out the intricacies of fancy needlework and toilet arti cles which former numbers gave. The plates and engravings aro got] up in Go-ley's usual good ntyle, one ot the latter satirizing the Six teenth Amendment capitally. The literary contents of Godey are good. 1 u this respect the editors have always shown taste and good judgement. The Riverside Magazine for September opens with a story from Hans Christian Andersen. i It has another chapter from “The House that Jick Built”; one about “Father Oi caiuo's Monkey”; another about “The Judge's Pets;” and half a score or more of other amusing aud instructive articles; many of which are illustra ted in the best style of the RirenHde, which is the best stylo ot the times.

PH'E IJBE9^ If Thursday Mornint, Auj. 25, r Tbc CmiipBiju. What meager intelligence we are able to get respecting tbc movements of the contend ilia armies, indicates that the campaign is ap proaching a crisis. The combatants seem to he trying to concentrate preparatory to a de cisive engaeemeot If as has been hinted the 1 mpcror insists upon commanding the French 1 army in the approaching battle, few will lies- 1 itate to predict which side will win. The Prussians thus far have made cue of the most brilliant cauipaignes on record. In boldness of conception and success of execution it com- 1 pares favorably with the brilliant campaigns of the first Napoleon, while in point of mag nitude the operations are not second to liis. 'Llie combined valor and strategy which in one campaign broke the power of Austria, lias in a period almost as short dealt a staggering blow to the armies of the most warlike nation of Europe. Whoever commands the French, nothing loss than a miracle can save them, demoralized as they are, from another de feat. Meanwhile a movement is taking place in France which though now overshadowed by dangers from without, threatens to become a revolution. Gen. Trochu, who lias been placed in command of Paris, appears to he gaining the ascendency. He is not a believ er in personal government, and would not probably feel serious compunctions about overthrowing it. Mis well known sentiments have kept him from rising as high in the pub ic service as liis merits deserve, and now that the gravity ot the situation has made liis ser vices indispensable, he can not feel a very lively sense of devotion to Louis Napoleon. His language in the proclamation Kc issued on taking command at Paris, shows liow lit tle- sympathy he can have with the Napoleon ic regime. Me says: ‘'The idea of maintain ing order iii Paris by force is horrible and dis gusting.” and he closed by saying: ‘’The er ror ot all Governments I have ever known is to consider for the ultimate power; the only decisive power in the moment of danger is mural lorce.” Louis Napoleon has always depended largely upon borrowed lustre and the ability which he has exhibited in times past seems to have departed from him by vir tue of his genius. Gen. Trochu has the same title to throne of France as the illustrious founder ot the Napoleonic dynasty, while it is evident that lie possesses moral perceptions which no Bonaparte ever dreamed of. Another defeat may at any moment convert into aelipn the talk of making Trocnu dicta tor. The Napoleonic dynasty is on its last legs, and should the Empire be continued under another head, events point to Trochu as the coming man. Sn* ffiubcr 4 oiiKrc*9. The Labor Congress at Cincinnati, at its last session adopted a constitution providing for a National organization to he known as the National Labor Union of the United States, Its olject shall be to discuss all grievance, laws and customs which oppress labor, and to elevate the condition ot the working masses. The Union is to have a Na tional Labor Congress based upon equal rep resentaliou ol the members. It is to meet on the first Monday jn August each j ear. Spe cial meetings may be called by the President, or on application of the executive committees of five States. The President is to have power to appoint and to remove members of the executive committee in States not provi ded. Each Stale organization is to enact laws tor its own government, not conflicting with the constitution. The President is to appoint an executive officer in each Slate and terri tory. A union at twcutj-one members will be entitled lo a charter.' Only thirty-five per sans were present on the lifct day ot the Con gress.

We publish on our first page to-day a vin- j lication of Hon. James G. Blaine which ap peared a slioit time ago in tiie Keiu*pbec Journal, and would lia' e appeared in tlie Press had it not been misplaced and tempora rily The Jon Begun.—The nice little job of j stealing $10,000 out of onr plethoric city treas- ury for the benefit of sharpers was bcgHn yes- j terday, directly after dinner. As we observe d j yesterday, the non-concurrence of tlio Common j Council in tlie order of the Board ol Aldermen jhauging the location ot the Robbins wooden pavement, contracted for, from Congress to Middle street, left tlie original and revived contract apparently in force; and at one o’clock yesterday atternoon a gang of men from the Street Department and half a dozen city teams began to break up and cart off the fine road bed in front of City Hall, preparatory to laying down the new pavement. It is quite remarka ble that the contractors, after laying idle for over eleven months, should so suddenly he seized with a spirit of haste and utterly refuse to perform their contract in any part of the city but in tliat“nomiuated in the bond.” Let ns review the history of the matter. In September, 1803, an order was passed in both brandies of the city government, authorizing a contract with Tbouias If. Richardson for the Robbins’ wooden pavement on Congress street" from Chestnut to Myrtle, at an expense not to exceed $8500, the city to prepare the street for its reception, and tbo work to be performed ‘within reasonable time.” This part ol Con gress street was then in an indictable condi tion, and the city government had been dis cussing the most economical and durable method of repairing it. When the Richardson proposal was presented ‘‘a reasonable time’" was understood by both parties to be before the ground should be closed by tbo frost that sea son and so the coutract was signed on the llih of September. The work was delayed week after week and when the contractors were asked the cause, they gave sun dry plausible excuses; ami so the matter run aloDg until the season closed. It was the opinion of Mayor Putnam and the last City Government th xt this neglect to per form (lie work during the season of 1809 was a virtual abandonaient of the contract, and the present.City Government concurred in that opinion, and expressed its concurrence by ex pending at least §1500 in May and June on this place, and putting it in splendid condition. Now as s ion as this work was completed,tbc owners of the Bobbins patent Jaegan to enforce their exploded claim. It is impossible now to expose all the means used, but the chief one was that as the city had never formally noti fied the contractors that they regarded the con tract annulled by the delay it was iu binding force, and the city was huldeu to the full amount; and on the 19;h of August, au order reviving the contract was passed in the Board oi Aldermen by the following vote:—Yeas Curtis, Tolford, Senter, Weseott aud Bailey. Nays—McCarthy. Iu regard to the liability of the city there is a difference of opinion among legal gentlemen, the Mayor, we are told, believing that the city is not holden, while the City Solicitor, we un derstand, takes the opposite view; aud the ma jority of the Aldermen accepted the latter opinion. Let the figures be submitted to the tax payers, aud ascertain their verdict: Estimated expense of repairs in May aud June, $1500 Amount of the contract, 8500 Cast to the city of preparing the street— the estimate ol the Street Committee, 140 §10,140 At this rate what will it cost to put fifty streets in Portland in good repair, that are now in an almost, and a few of them in an indicta ble condition? But the subject is not exhausted. i hi; War—yy.— h.-,..,...-. Frcncn Standpoint— The N. Y. Courrier des Etats Unis of Wednesday morning prints the following dispatch from its Paris correspondent: The sprightly ell inert of the Parisian pro pie accommodates itself with difficulty to the reign of silence which the ministry imposes on us. So many hint dels weie committed iu the opening ol the war that it is feared that this change in the policy of Count Palikuo conceals some new mistake. It would he easy to dissipate this impression hut it would rot be light, and no one wishes to do it. I saw to days! part of a dispatch froai Mar shal Bazaire which the Minister of War com municated to the Corps Legislutif. It was couched in general terms, hut it Could never have come from a conquered man or from one doubtlul of success. Bazaine wished to leave Metz hut he was not able to. On this side, the rn“tiiy iu return wished to besiege him and cut oft' his communication with Paris, nor did they succeed any better. This is the situation anil explanation of the recent engagement. We have sustained severe aud heavy losses it is said, but those of the enemy are enormous and out of all proportion to a merely negative ad vantage which he lias gained. We are seuding forward reinforcements con stantly, but this is done without weakening the defence of the capital. Every day 15.000 or 20,000 conscripts set out for Champaign. This morning two hattalious of Gardes Mobile Irom Brittany and Normandy left by the rail road for Ardennes. I must admit that they were very poorly armed. Their gur.s were old muzzle loaders and they were without uni forms, hut they were brave and stalwart fel lows. xueie is mi auaieuieiii in patriotism, wuiie the work on the fortifications is still going on. The National Guards and even ihe young men from the schools and lyceums drill in the man ual ot arms. Eve'y day 15,000 men are drilli d in evolutions in the Champ de Mars. The Corps Legslalifis doing nothing of impor tance. The action of the newly created com mittee of defence is, however, reviewed and considerably criticised. French journals claim that the Prussian loss in tbe battles of last week were 35,000 killed and 85,000 wouuded. Prussian spies abound, audit follows (bat redoubled caution must be exercised upon all dispatches to foreign coun tries. The correspondent coutinues: It is difficult to obtaiu auy accurate news of what has taken place at Chalons or in its neigh tn*.hood. At the War Department they per— etiiptuciiy refuse to say anything outlie" sub p cl, hut Some ol the papers announce that the corps of Marshal McMahon and Failley have succeeded in -reat-king: Ardennes, and fey a flank march from that place they will effect a junction with Marsliai XJazaiuc. I believe that some troops encamped at Chalons haVe gone thither. The correspondence denies that any proposi tions of peace have been made by Eugland to the French government. The conditions which Prussia would impose would he nothing short of the complete destruction of France. IlflEH. Fort Constitution, Portsmouth, is to have a a re-enforcemeut of soldiers.

The occasion of the emeute was the reading of the projiosition of M. Kera ty relative to the formation of a Committee of Defence. The greatest upi oar and confusion was provoked hy tha presentation of the pro posal. Immediately deputies on both sides of the Chamber arose and commenced stating their views and dislikes.

A serious conflict has occurred between the French and German troops of the Papal army stationed in Home. The Eastern Budget states that the Italiau government will occupy Home without delay if the Pope does not succeed in suppressing the disorders. A correspondent, in describing the battle of Sunday, 14th, which he says was bloodier than Sadowa, writes: The number of German troops* actually in the battle was 45,000. The French had a great deal of artillery and cavalry, but the number of troops I have been unable to ascertain. The Germans had but little cavalry and artillery. The 431 regiment of Germans which led the way, suffered very severely. The Germans carried all the breastwoiks notwithstanding the murderous fire of the French, who al ways were compelled to retire before them, but the murderous fiie ol the Chassepot which carries nearly twice as far as the needle gun, told Very severely on the Geamaus who, iu every egnagemeui lost a great many more than the Freuch. It was the superior courage of the Germans which compelled the euemy to retire. They did so slowly, contesting every inch of ground, until tuey were driven almost against the walls or Metz. The field of battle over almost its entire extent was thick with bodies of the dead and wounded. I should es timate the number of Germans killed at 1GOO, and I think that number would he rather loo small than too large. The 43d regiment has been reduced to oue balf. Of that regimtnt one company lost iu killed and wounded one-third ot its number, and another one-half. No wounded prisoneis were taken on either side. The correspondent who was captured by tlie French, during the battle of GraveloMe,savs: I was treated kindly by my captors, who went off through the woods and lost their way in the darkness and slept under the trees. While they slept I escaped, and reached St. Marc, which is in possession of the Germans. It this village many houses were battered down, and every available spot crowded wiih wounded men. Even tlie streets were covered will) straw, and the French and German wounded were lying iheie iu masses tegether. 1 went on foot to Rezouville, where the King was bivou acked for ibe night.

I counted forty-one dead in one little spot, including a Major, pierced through the head, who lay on lus hack, sword in hand. Xhe cannonade irom the German side and the rat tle of needle guns was terrific. The defeat of the French was total. Their long columns could have been seen pouring towards tlie north, in an effort to evade the German pur suit by the way of Bricy. The loss on Loth sides was immense.

Pleaded n tt* Editor of the Press: A most singular phenomenal) in Capo Eij>. belli on Taesday afternoon. About 3 o’elocl a mau working in a field on tbe Shore Road about a mile distant from Cape Cottage, bean a peculiar low humming or buzzing sound liki the noise produced by a bee. At first tin sound seemed to proceed (rom an npple-trei near at hand, increasing in violence until i filled tbe surrounding atmosphere, as if fift; sworuis of bees bad settled in tbe branch. Tin man approached tbe tree, with his two dog following him and barking furiously, but no'li ing could be seen an 3 tbe sound seemed to v.i dilate between a distant spot iu Ibe corn-fi h and the tree, continuing at inti ivjIs until ball past five. About half a mite di-lant, ou tin same road, some ladies were walking, accom panied by a little gill, ai d the child bccaim very much frightened, as also did (be ladle tbe latter describing the sonud they beard a? resembling the cries of an animal, like a bull in distress. On tbe old Ocean House, or Mid die Road, some half mile distant in tbe direc it tion of Portland, from the first spot mentioned a farmer’s family heard the sound and thought it came from tbe rafters of their dwelling and, as tbe noise Dccame louder, thought it must 1 come from a planing mill. It will thus be seen that the phenomenon was -observed over a stratcb of country at least a mile nud a lull long and a half a mile broad. It is supposed t to have been caused by some atmospherical disturbance, and, to say tbe least, was very cu rious. Will some savant explain it? There was hardly a breath of wind at tbe lime. Refoexi School —Ebon Wentworth, E-q., who was tendered tbe Scperintendeucy of the Reform School, lias decided not to accept tbe situation, but to remain where be is, a princi pal of tbe North School in this city. That Mr. W. would make an excellent and efficient Superintendent there cannot he the i slightest doubt. But we, ill common with our fellow citizens, are glad that be has declined tbe office and concluded to remain with us. He is ore of tbe most accomplished teachers in our school department, and it would be a great I033 to have him leave the North School, where be has made himself so popular, both with parents and pupils. An Old ell.—The Dew block of stores to be erected by Hot). William W. Thomas, on Exchange street, will occupy a portion of the lot on which formerly stood tho residence ol Hon. William Widgery, a large Wooden man sion, which was subsequently altered, enlarg ed aud occupied as a furniture establishment by Mr. Walter Corey. In excavating lor the cellar of the stores yesterday the old well, sunk by Judge Widgery, near the close of the last or the beginning of the present century, was uncovered, aud about five leet of water found in it. Arrest.—Officers Harbour and Gariaud last cveuiug arrested two females—the notorious “May Toy” and Margaret Wilson—and a young man named Owen Graham,in the house of Mrs. Co&wl Dr. Pierce's Alt.

T3E VIOLATION OF NEUIEiL TEB BITOSY. Primer* A DOUBTFUL STATEMENT RESPECTING PRUS SIAN POWER IN AUSTRIA. Paris, Aug. 21.—I,a Patrie, semi-official or gan, says there exists at Vienuaa Prussian pirfy encouraged and paid by Bismarck. It is Slid that the parties who played llie odious role at 02 h ive control bf some of the Vienna journals and sine the recent suec-ss of Prus sia liavff endeavored to persuade Austria to act favorably, making a handle of the well-known sympathy of Hungary for France. The Aus trian Government, however, has resided these overtures thus fir and will uo doubt maintain a liieudly neutrality. La Patrie denies the story that by Austria’s withdrawing the corps of observation Prussia has been enabled to use troops she could not otherwise have moved. TIIE CONFIDENT FEELING AMONG THE PEOPLE. La Paine of to-day says th it should Prussia defeat the great army uow confronting them near Chalons tli-y will have to vanquish another before reaching Paris, and besides will find Palis itself amply prepared to resist an attack. It is noticeable that the people hero are growing more and more confident as they learn how great tbs {measures of defence are throughout the country. False despatches that were published in the London Times create intense indignation here among all classes. One great offset of these despatches is to increase the determination of the French to light. The garde mobile and sharpshooters camped around Paris a-e con stantly drilled and exercised hv competent offi cers. Telegraphic com'.nuaic.ition with all points in the departments of Aabo and Dorr is cut off. The Minister of the IuteriorjjauUiorizes the statement that additional advices of a favora ble character have been received from the armies in the field, but the information is pur posely withln-1.1 from the public as some .jour nals indiscreetly give details which should be kept back. TIIK ANIMUS OF THE LONDON TIMES. Tha-Coustiiutionnel, announcing the asser tions of the London Times that the French are in a desperate condition, shows that ike jour nal arrives jit its conclusions without waiting for corap’ete 04* authentic reports of recent events, and defies it t» decide, who is now in the best military position, Baziine or King William. It adds that the hostility of the Times is accounted for by fie fact that some one of its proprietors married a daughter of the Prussian ambassador at Loudon; and some persons say in addition to this that the journal Ins been heavily subsidized by Bismarck. VIOLATIONS OF NEUTRALITY. Advices Irom Acion, a frontier town of Bel gium, sixteen miles from Luxembourg, says that violations of Belgium territory by the Prussians are ot frequent occurrence. It is reported that the Prussians attack Belgian soldiers, enter Belgium and Luxembourg with provisions lor their armyfand transport their wounded through section^ of neutral territory. Toes* facts lead to fear that the position of Belgium as a neutral power maybe seriously compromised. THE OLD STORY. The Coustitutionel, semi-official, s iys Without entering into details we may affirm that work on the fortifications of the capital are progressing with wonderful .rapidity, and the clan of the population is immense. Russian papers represent Paris as not Paris in tile period between 1792 to 1815. They will discover their mistake. The capital proves now as ever that she is the heart of France, ready lo receive the enemy. Neither spies nor battalions can break down tlie wall of defence which her danger has erected. Should the Prussians advance to tin ramparts of Paris they will tiud this out. The process ot the ia cjrpora’ion of the national guard with the reg. ular armies has commenced. It is announced that a Prussian spy near RUeims, mistaking an officer for Gen. McMahon, fired twice at him, mi?8cd his aim and «.

CONFLICTING REPORTS. London, Aug. 24.—Paris telegrams.just i c- ceivrd declare that Metz, is certainly isolate that the Prussians have cutoff communic in between Tkionville, Montmedy and Metz, h that Marshals McMahon and Baz.iine were er daily communication; that no mediations vs likely t succeed unless X.ipVeon takes t ,;i initiative. Another Paris special says that n- 1‘atriereiterates It.at McMahon’s foreps are i to with or near Bazjine in the Ardenves Moi: 16 tains; but another authority reports that ii ej only the army of Chalons; the regularly loc sh ed army there, that joined Bazaine and i! the latter still keeps all his lines intact. lr- ITEMS, A lion ird of engiuneers have been appoint ra* to inspect and repair the Martello towers ilv British coast. Letters from Paris represent that Lure; es- eracy and red tape interferes sadly with ev arm of the French service.

If is more palatable than any now to use. Buchu, as prepared by Druggists, is ol a dark color. It is a plant that emits its liagrance; the action ot a flame deslroys this (its active principle, b aving a dark and glutinous decoction. Mine is tbo color ot ingredients. The Purlin in ray preparaticn predominates; the smallest quantity of the other ingredients are added, to prevent lei mentation ;upon inspccti n, it will be found not to be a Tincture, as m-ide in I'harinacopcea, nor i« it a Syrnp—and there fore can be used in cases w here fever or inflammation exist. In this you have the knowledge of the ingre dients and the mode ot preparation.

Adams. dcioti Ayer’s For restoring Gray Hair to its natural Vitality and Color. A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or gray hair is soon restored to its original color with the gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thick cncd, falling hair checked, and bald ness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the liair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands atrophied and decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from turning gray or falling off, and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous aud injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts long on the hair, giving it a rich glossy lustre aud a grateful perfume. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
