Viotation or Canapian Teezivory By
Arwen Amenicans.—We have to relate an-
other of the frequent outrages ¥ hich Ameri-
cans have committed during the present civil
war u the sgil of Canada. On Thursday,
the Sh of January last, about nine o'clock
at night, Lieutewant Haddock of Watertown.
an officer in the army of United States, with
@ party of armed assistants, forc:b'y took
away drom his refuge ia a house on Wolf
Jsland an American deserter of the name of
Abraham Tyler. This ict rnatio: a' outrage
ard insult tu the British fag was witnessed
by some half dozen persons. males and fe-
males, resident at the lower end of the Is-
Gand, where the affair took place ; and the
circumstances are related by them substan
tially as follows: The officer, Haddock, who
was the leader of the party, was in uniform.
die broke into the house of Mr. Balcomb, si-
tuated at the foot of the Island. A candle
«was burning’in the house at the time, and a
yy A in the room of the dwelling, into
* the offiter entered. Following in the
footateps of Lieutenant Waddock were two
other men in the uniform of American sol-
diers. One of these scldier#, valiant rascal
he was, collared the boy and presented a pis-
tol at his head, commanding silence. Lieut.
Haddock then went up to the bed in the
room, whereon the deserter, Abraham ‘T'yler,
Jay. Tyler, by the way, had been living at
the house for about two months. Haddock
disturbed Tyler and told him he had come to
arrest him in the Queen's name. With this
mendacious profanation of our Royal lady's
authorit as hie lips, the officer and his
quen touk ‘Tyier out of bed and handcuffed
him, forced on his trousers, and thrust on his
boots without first, putting on his socks —
they were tuo hurried to be so considerate —
end then they dragged Tyler out of the house.
‘They pushed him over the yard fenee, and
took him to the boat. near the shore, and
placed him on board, The boat was rowed
teross the stream to the American side, and
the party ianded in the State of New York.
Another boat, with several persons on board,
whether armed or not is not known, was seev
at a short distance from the Wolfe Island
shore. This latter party doubtless accom-
panied the others to render assistance in case

ty of arrest had met with resistance.

This is u succinct statement of the facts of

annoying violation of our territory aud
insult to our flag. The particulars, we be-
lieve, are now im course of transmission to

AtarMinc DeMONSTRATION AMONG THE La-
pies uF New Yorx.—The New York /ven-

which has recently exhibited itself among the
ladies of fashion to revive the absurdities of

fort and beauty, makes this astoun Jing state-

widow's bows, looms ap a new horror. It

may be literally said that ‘horrors on hor-
rors head accumulate.’ A number of tne
leading fashionable ladies of this city have
decided to reviye ti.e obsolete custom of
powdering the head, and have gppeared at
several, purties and socal gatherings with
their hair dene up in the old style, and then
thiekly bestrewed with powder. Of course,
by this process of application, all the heads
approximate a similar hue. Red hair be-
comes like snow, ‘though thy hair be as sear-
let, it shall be as wool.’ Black hair be-
comes a dirty whitish gray. And after the
evening is over often a whole hour is occu-
pied in washing the hair, and freeing it from
its powdery guise. The days of sackcloth
and ashes seem to haye been revived. We
understand that the innovation has elicited
no little opposition, but that the ladies who
have the watter in band—or rather on hand
—are determined to carry it out. It is pro-
bable that if successful they will follow it
up with those disgusting ‘beauty patches’
once in vogue. After that the ladics will,
perhaps, demand that the gentlemen wear
ruffles, red coats, swords and curled wigs.
We sound the note of alarm.’’
——_—-

The following amnsing story is related in a late
America paper: Heury Hale, one of the bert
scouts in the country, Jeft Leavenworth while Mal
lizan was before Lexington, with despatches. As
he rode along, men from every direction were going
to join Price. He saw one old secessionist with a
little shot gan, and he thought that it would be a
nice thing to drive off the old fellow and take his
herse into Lexington. So he engaged the man in
conversation, and getting an opportunity, oo his re-
volver to the secexsionist’s wali ordered him to te
his guu to the saddle, to dismount, and finally to
“skedaddle.’ The old man made tracks a ta
glad to escape with his lite. Hale took the horse
by the bridle and rode on whistling ‘ Yankee
Doodle.””” He had ridden a mile or two, when ata
turn of the road he was suddenly ordered to halt
The oid secessionist had procured another gun and
wot ahead of him. The gan was squarely aimed at
hishead. ‘ Getotlthat horse,” eried the secessionist.

liale abeved. ‘ Pull off your pants.” Hale did it
* Skedaddle ""—au order which Hale at once carried
into effect, merely saying, “* Well, Cup., I thought
my shirt would come next-guod bye.” The seces
sionist went off with the two horses, whistling
Dixie, while Hale marehed seven miles into Lex-

contajned hijs Roepeicnse. He will uever be per-
mitted to forget that seven-mile march.

SPECIAL NOTICES.

Holloway’s Ointment and Pills.—The Liver and
Stomach.—A sufferer states,“* I tried medicines,
prescribed by the best doctors. for Liver com-
plaint, but they were of no service to me. IT had
only rufbed your ointment on my side ten days
when the soreness there aud jp my bregst abated,
my appetite returned, and I felt quite cheerful, I
have now left off rubbing, but coutinue the Pills.”
This invalid steadily advanced ‘to sound health.
| No means, heretofore known, remove stagnated
blood from any overgorged organ with the same
ease and safety as friction with Holloway’s Oint-
meut, assisted by appropriate doses of his purify-
ing Pills. All distressing symptoms arising from
a disopderad stomach are remoyed as by magic
by this wonderful medigine.

Mansfield’ Dispensary says that most ofthe Sar-
saparilla of the shops is duert. and worthless. Dr.
Ayer in his writings on this drug, states that not
only is it inert as foynd in the shops, but so also
are mast of the preparations from it, or bearing jts
name. He shows, however, that this fact arises
from the use of worthless varieties, or wiskdiful
| preparations by in¢onpetent men: that the true
| Medicinal Sarsaparilla (Sarza Smilax off.) of the
| tropics, when freshly gathered in the bud, is one
of the most effectual alteratives we possess.
Combined with other substances of great. altera-
tive power, like Iodine, Stilingia, Dock, &e., it
makes Ayer’s Comp. Ext. of Sarsp, which we
have reason to believe is one of the most effectual
remedies for humors,skin diseases and for puritying
the blood which has ever yet been found by any
hody.—Bangoy ( Me.) Mercury.

The New York Mercury

FOR THE NEW VEAR.

T is with no fear of War's effect upon
their literary fortunes, that the publishers of
Tur New York Mencuny acknowledge the nn-
wavering loyalty of their TWO HUSDRED THONSANTD
sUnSCKIRERE, and announce to them and to all, tint
the New York Mexcury for this year (1863) will
be richer in every luxury of Polite Literature than
ever before. It isno upstart speealatien, ne Lewpe-
‘rary “sensation,” but a dist elass literary weekly,
whieh has been fawiliar to the United States for a
quarter of a centary ; avd while the wishy-washy
mushroom prints of yesterday are cutting down
their talent even while they raise their subseription-
price, Tue New York Mekcuxy majntajins all its
greyt Staff of Romancers, Poets, Lumorists, Keany-
iste, Story-Tellers and Editors, and promises to umke
it still greater for 1863.

It is the one paper for every home. Its forty
columns of reading matter per week constitute an
unparalleled
CONSERVATOLY OF THE ENTERTAINING,
and its Novels. Miscellaneous Tales, Beauties of
Verse, Gossip, Feuilletous, Broadsides of Hamer,
and Polished Editorials, combine to epitomize all
the charms of

WIT AND SENTIMENT!

The husband reads jt to his wife, the mother to her
children, the lover to his sweeheurt, the ier to
his comrades, and the village schoolwaster te the
circle arownd the stove. It is fawiliar to the sight
of every man, woman, and ehild in our eowntry, and
has regular sithseribers in several countries: of
Europe. Tue New York Mexcuny is also identi
tied with the grandest patriotiom of the ages for pe-
veral members of ite brilliant Staff hold high rank
in oyr noble army, and have made thenmeives as
famous with the Sword as with the Pen. The
groat Mustrating artistof Tue New York Mrnceny,
the inimitable DARLEY, gives the ~— the highest
attributes of Pine Art; aid yet this largest literary
weekly of the day promises to surpass itself ia all
these respects during the New Year!

The first New York Mexcvnry Novelette for the
New Year to be commenced in the issue of Jamuary
3, 13863, is called
VICTORIA;
on,
THE HEIRESS OF CASTLE CLIFVE.

' The productions of this distingnished arthorers

eagerly reproduced, after their publication im the
Menxevny, by the English press. We umy add that
the new tale, “ Victoria,’ is fully equal im interest
and dept of plot to gijher of those which have se-
cured so large a share of public approval, and we
can earnestly recommend it to all #tory-readers.

FIRE AND LIFE

INSURANCE COMPANY.
“PHL Agent for the above first class

English Fire Insamnce Company begs to
call the attention of the public to the advauytages
offered by this Company, in respect lo the seeurit ye
to the assured, and ppajnpinessto pay Josses, which ,
without disparaging ether Companies, wmy be safely
asserted to be superior to those afforded by any
other Company in the Island. The Liverpool aud
London F. & JL. Jusurance Company has been in
successtul gperation since 1436, with avencies aff
over the werld, and has paid in losses abows dave
millions and a Syuartes sterling. Its subserilad ex
pital js £2,000,000 sterling, und its invested funds
alone amount to £1,312,000 sty.; and the fire pre-
miuims for 1891 amount to £360 130 192 94; and in ad-
dition to this very large eapital, the Company,
having been established before the recent Limited
Liability Act, the individual fortunes of each of the

vebolders, comprising some of the wealibiest
merchants in Liverpool and London, are liable for
the losses, should whe whole of the capital be swept
away. In this respect it differs, it is believed, from
auy other Company established here,
And lastly, the Agent being appoiuged by Power
of Attorney directly from England, is authorised to
draw Bills the moment a loss occurs, and without

referring to the Home a Y, to the extent of
one theusaud pounds ‘

With these swperior advautages, the Company is
not dieponed (though it might be well justilied) to
ask a higher mge ef premium than other English
Companies, which do not present the same advan-
tageous features, ow a has been advised
that an uniform yate has n agreed u hy the
Directors of this Company and the “ Queen's,”
that the Agents here should, in this respect,

in concert.”
