HASZARD, BROWN’S BLOCK, Queen Square, Ch town, May 18, '85.—wky AYER’S Hair Vigor restores, with the gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray hair to a natural, rich brown color, or deep black, as may be desired. By its use light or red hair may be darkened, thin hair thickened, and baldness often, though not always, cured. It checks falling of the hair, and stimnu- lates a weak and sickly growth to vigor. It prevents and cures seurf and dandruff, and heals recrly every disease peculiar to the scalp. As a Ladies’ Hair Dressing, the ViGoR is unequatled; it contains neither oil nor dye, renders the hair soft, glossy, and silken in appearance, and imparts a delicate, agreeable, and lasting perfume. Mr. C. P. BricuEeR writes from Kirby, O. July 3, 1882: * Last fall my hair commenced falling out, and in a short time I became nearly bald. I used part of a bottle of AYER’S HAIR VIGOR, which stopped the fall- ing of the hair, and started a new growth. I have now a full ~—_ of bair growing vigor- ously, and am conVinced that but for the use of your preparation 1 should have been entirely bald.’’ J. W. BowEN, proprietor of the McArthur Sl Enquirer, says : * AYER’S HAIR VIGOR s a most excellent preparation for the hair. I speak of it from my own experience, Its use promotes the pave of new hair, and makes it glossy and soft. The V1iGorR is also @ sure cure for dandruff. Not within my knowledge has the preparation ever fai to give entire satisfaction.” : Mr. ANGUS FAIRBAIRN, leader of the celebrated “ Fairbairn Family” of Scottish Vocalists, writes from Boston, Mass., Feb. 6, 1880: ‘‘ Ever since my hair began to give sil- very evidence PI the change which fleeting time procuretif¥ I have used AYER’S HAIB Vicor, and so haye been able to maintain an appearance of youthfulness—a matter of considerable consequence to ministers, ora- tors, actors, ami in fact every one who lives in the eyes of the public.” Mrs. 0, A. PRESCOTT, writing from 18 Fim St., Charlestown, Mass., April 14, 1882, $ “Two years ago about two-thirds of my hair came off. It thinned very rapidly, and I was fast growing bald, On using AYER’S HAIn Vicor the falling stopped and a new growth commenced, and in about a month my head was completely covered with ghort hair. It has continued to grow, and is now as good as Wefore it fell. I regularly used but one bottle of the ViGoR, but now use it occasionally as @ dressing.” We have hundreds of similar testimonials to the efficacy of AYER’s Hatk Vieor.

Sic Michael was Secretary of State for the Colonial Department, and sits for. East Gloucestershire, This cold, haughty, de- corous and frigidly handeome parsomage has always been looked wpon a3 a sort of “dark horse” by the Conservative Party—is a possible leader. He owes this kind of ‘re- gard to his having done little or nothing in ‘opposi.ion to help or hinder his~ chanee. For along time he has effaced himself. ' Was Chiet Secretary for Lrelana, which ex- |perience preceded that in his last office, | where he very thoroughly mismanaged tho Transvaal and prepared for the mother ,conuntry and the Cape Colony, tho mess {from which the have only just escaped. LORD RANDOLPH CHURCHILL. Lord Randolph Churchill is the second son of the Duke of Marlborough. He was | born in 1849. A slight, active man, his | Upper lip covered with a long moustache he ‘hes a habit of twisting thoughtfully, ke ‘might be mistaken in the street for one of the usual fashionable idlers among the club /men of the day but for an air of preoccupa- | tion and thoughtfulness which tell one that 'he has a more serious purpose in life. He founded the ‘‘fourth party,” as an annex to the conservative party. Its members not inaptly represent the leading personages of adramatic company. There is the jeune Peony V EGIOE BIS, | premier, a role, by common consent, ac- corded to Lord Randolph Churchill, who appears in every new political piece as the prominent character upon the boards. Sir Drummond Wolff, grave, sedate and spec- tacled, falls aaturally into the part of the ‘‘heavy father.”” Mr. Gorst, giass in eye, is the clever and successful lawyer ; while Mr. Balfour fills, not inappropriately, the part of the rich uncle from America.’ But Lord Randolph, with Irish blood in his veins on the maternal side, with an inti- mate acquaintance with recent Irish troubles, gathered during the Irish vice- royalty of his father, an1 in his capacity as one of the most active members of the ber of facts which he has an unpleasant nack of producing at the most inconven- ient moment for his opponents, and with an air of ingenuons candor. This is one secret of his success in the House. SIR RICHARD ASSHETON CROSS. Mr. Cross represents Southwest Lanca- shire and was Lord Beaconsfield’s Home Secretary. At the time of his elevation to oftice it was said that the appointment was one of Lord Baaconsfield’s jokes. A satiriat described him thus :— Ideal Chairman of Quarter Sessions, Petty, priggish, pragmatic and pert; Fancies, of course, that of all professions The statesman’s that ia which he’s expert. A banker and a barrister as well as chairman of Quarter Sessions, rubicund Sir Richard did vot make a bad Home Secre- tary, if his speeches on every conceivable subject were rather trying. He wears spectacles, and while giving utterance to his platitudes has a bland way of beaming on his hearers which would be exasperating if it were not funny. He is forever at Quarter Sessions, either demolishing antag- onists, admonishing delinquents, or sen- tencing offenders to condign punishment. One of Mr. Bradlaugh’s most determined adversaries. EDWARD GIBSON. Mr. Gibson is the Conservative represen- tative of Dublin University. His abilities are more showy than solid, and there are better men in the Tory crowd, Has a handsome, young face, and is prematurely gray. Rich. Not only active and pushing but a slashing debater, and a ready hand at a telling partisan attack. In the general poverty of talents he is bound to score heavily. He has distancea Pinnket—a much abler man—in their common profes- sion by sheer diligence. A recent stump- ing expedition across the border showed him in a favorable light as a platform orator. His skill in swaying juries steod him in good stead there. He is by no means the most rencorous of the opponents of Irish home rule. W. H. SMITH. succession to the late John Stuart Mill. Was Lord Beaconsfield’s First Lord of the Adthiralty ; has the monopoly of the rail- way bookselling and newsvending trades on the principal lines in Great Britain. A commonplaces man of kindly nature and business habits, who did not make a failure at the Admiralty, because business habits of any description tell there. Is said to be an accidental Conservative. Years ago he sought election at the Reform Cinb and was turned away. A subsequent application at the Carlton met with success. His speeches are scraps of fireside conversation, whereia it is demonstrated, in a manner that defies contradiction. that two and two make exactly four. Is a substantial pillar of the Established Church, rules his workpeople (who esteem him) with paternal despotism, farms a few hundred acres of land and keeps a yacht. Altogether a highly respect- able persen. Heis burlesqued in “ Pina- fore.” THE EARL OF CARNARVON. Henry Howard Molyneux Herbert, fourth Earl of Carnarvon, was born in 1891. He never sat in the house of Commons. Lord Derby took him in hand after hearing his maiden speech in the Upper Honse. At twenty-seven he was made Under Secre- tary for the Colonies. He seceded from the Disraeli Cabinet in 1866, on the quea- tion of the extension of the suffrage. In 1878 he did the same thing on the Eastern questiov. He is able, but impracticable. Politics apart Lord Carnarvon is a mode English gentleman, taking interest in prison other respectable questions. He is great, too, as a Freemason. VISCOUNT CRANBROOK.

COLONEL STANLEY. Colonel Stanley was Secretary for War in the last two years of Lord Beaconsfeld’s administration. He was born in 1841 and ‘joined the Grenadier Guards at seventeen, retiring in 1865. He has been a Lord of the Admiralty, Financial Secretary to the War Office and Secretary of the Treasury. married Lady Constance Villiers, ‘Lord Derby's brother. LETTERS T0 THE EDATOR. Assessors. Sir,— Can you inform me by what means the Assessors arrived at th® value of the personal property of the citizens! They left at my house a schedule to be filled in and handed back to them. They never set a foot inside the house, but have assessed me for a certain amount nearly 50 per cent. more than i returned without allowing for the exemption of two hundred dollars. The same with my store; they did not go through the stock nor ask any questions, but have assessed me for five thousand dol- lars more than I returned. Now, who are Messrs. Large, Davison and Hogan thai they can look in at a man’s door and say that his personal property is worth ove, two or three thousand dollars! In almost every case they have done the same thing, and in almost all cases added fifty per cent. or more to the schedule handed in by the owner, a8 much as to say you have told a lie! ln future it is to be hoped that our Council will appoint men who, if they are not capable to jadge the value of a person’s gocds or furniture, will ask sume questions ‘and try to find out somewhere near what is lright, and if they are not to be guided by ithe schedule given in by the owner, what is the use of going to the expense of having ithe schedule printed and sent round. Yours, Anti-Humevue Belfast Notes. ; | The ancient and noble calling, agricul- ‘ture, demands a first thought. Farmers have taken advantage of the unusually fine ‘spring, to get in fall crops and at this pre- 'sent writing, the indications are that the ‘labors of the hustandman will be amply re- warded. Agriculture has made rapid strides in this section of the Island, during the past few years. | Another unsuccessful attempt has been made by the oflicers of (ho jaw to capture ‘the whinney maid of Garfield. It really jeeems too bad that this creature still re- mains, to spread ruin and distruction, by ‘her nefarious traffic, and this in defiance of ‘the law and the largely prevalent temper- ‘ance sentiment ef the district. The genial and gentlemanly Chief Saper- ‘intendent of Education paid his annual |visit to the first-class schools throughout ‘the district in the latter part of last month, ‘and expressed himself as being in the main iwell pleased. No doubt the good pecple ‘of Eldon were sorry to have their school graded down, it not being up to the require- ‘ments of the law; bnt it only affords ‘another proof of Mr. Montgomery’s fitness for bis present position, in that notwith- ‘standing he has hosts of friends in the Elden school district, stil] when the duties |pertaining to his office demanded it, he ‘was prompt to obey; ard I think all will ‘agree that whatever sins the present Local ‘Government may be charged with, veriely ‘they did a neat thing when they made ‘Donald Montgomery chief of oyr most ‘important Government department. Let us all hope anc trust that by reason of his vecognized talent and well-merited popularity he may never egain be dragged into the arena of active politics, but that he may long be spared to occupy with credit to himself end profit to his native land, a position which by nature, education, and requirement, he seems 80 well qualified to fill, Pro Bono Puszico.
