Revolted, That in view of our present political condition, our relations to the National Government and the people of all sections of the country, we do this day with proud satisfaction unfurl the brilliant and glorious banner of The Republican Paktt, and earnestly ap peal to every true and patriotic man in the State to rally to its support. The snlendid and natriotic record made bv this great political organization, in standing by the general gov ernment with an Inflexible resolution, in carrying for ward profound measures of statesmanship to a success ful issue, and the powerful aid given by it in finally overthrowing and prostrating the most gigantic rebel lion of ancient or modern times, should command the respect and challenge the admiration of every candid man. 2. Resolved, That thd American Congress is eminently entitled to the profound. thanks of the whole country for its persevering, persistent and heroic devotion to the Seat principles of human rights as enunciated in the eclaration of Independence ; that in the name of the Satriotic people of this Stafe we feel warranted in cox ially assenting to and accepting the reconstruction plan recently and finally adopted by that body, and to the end that peace and order may be permanently secured and every industrial pursuit resumed and encouraged, we pledge ourselves to use every fair and legitimate means to influence public sentiment to the nearest possible ap proach to unanimity on this subject. 3. Resolved, That we rejoice that the dogma long pro pagated, of the right of peaceable secession under the Constitution, has been forever overthrown by tho majestic uprising of the American people, in crushing out the late rebellion by force of arms ; and that the doctrine that the supremacy of the general government has been established, and that the'paramount allegiance of the citizen has been acknowledged as due to the United States. 4. Resolved, That we sincerely exult in the fact that as a nation we are now absolutely a Nation of Fbee meu, and that the sun in all his course over our wide spread country no longer shines upon the brow of a slave. Without reservation we heartily endorse the great measures of Civil Rights and Impartial .Enfran chisement without any.property qualification, conferred without distinction of color, and that we are ready to nnite in the early practical attainment of these inesti mable privileges. Although the mortal remains of Abraham Lincoln now rest silently beneath the soil of his adopted State, yet his voice still rings like a clarion through the land, earnestly summoning every American citizen to the support of the great Party of Liberty and Emancipation. 5. Resolved, That as the most potent and efficient means by which the South can speedily regain her lost prosperity, we earnestly advocate the spreading .of knowledge and education among all men, and that to the attainment of this great end, we demand and shall per sistently and firmly insist upon the absolute right of free discussion and free speech on all subjects of public in terest, i 6. Jtcsolved, That we join in an earnest wish for tne maintenance untarnished and undi mined of the public credit and plighted faith of the nation. , J.

REPARATOR CAPILLL Throw away your false friz res, your switches, your wig Destructive of comfort, and not worth a fig : Come aged, come youthful, come ugly and fair. And rejoice in your own luxuriant hair. REPARATOR CAPILLI. FOR restoring hair npon bald heads (from whutevcr cause it may have fallen out) and forcing a growth of hair noon the face, it has no equal. It will force the beard to grow npon the smoothest face in from tU to eight weeks, or hair npon bald heads in from two to three months. A few ignorant practitioners have as serted that there Is nothing that will force or hasten tho growth of the hair or beard. Their assertions arc false, as thousands of living witnesses (from their own ex perience) can bear witness. But many will say, how art we to distinguish the genuine from the spurious? It certainly is difficult, as nine-tenths of the different Pre parations advertised for tho hair and beard are entirely worthless, and you may have already thrown away large amounts in their purchase. To such we would aav, try the RcDarator. Canllli ; it will cost yon nothing unless It fully comes up to our representations. Uyour Druggist docs not keep it, send ns one dollar and we will forward it, postpaid, together with a receipt for the money, which will be returned yon on application, providing entire satisfaction is not given.
