WASHINGTON, January 28.-The President's Mes? sage, retraining the act admitting Co orado, says a sense of duty prevente his. approval With tl ic exception of the additional clause, it was the same that was vetoed in May last, which still awaits the Senate's reconsideration. He is unable to per? ceive any reasons for changing his opinion, and is more strongly confirmed in the wisdom of his former veto. The additional section makes the Bill more objectionable. The Constitution of Colorado provides that exist? ing laws shall continue; among those is one ab? solutely prohibiting negro suffrage. The recent Territorial Legislature almost unanimously refus? ed its repeal, and,joencbug tho passage of'the act by Congress, tne Territorial Legislature passrd an act denying tory rights to negroes. The Bill before me grants the rights denied- by tho Legislature and the Constitution of Colorado. .This incongrui? ty, and a protest on thc part of the people against the establishment, of a State Government, clearly indicate the impolicy and injustice of tho proposed enactment. The subject merits serious inquiry whether the enactment is not an attempt to exor? cise powers not conferred hy tho Constitution. The President submits ovidenco that there is a repugnance on tho part of the people of Colorado to . a State Government. The total population of Colorado is 27,00?. He argues the injustice of al? lowing this small community two Senators and one Representativo. Such admission of States was not practiced in the early days of our Republic. Florida's admission in 1845 resulted from sectional strife, which we would do well to regard as a warn? ing of evil rather than example for imitation. He shows, by statistics, that other States, when admitted, had a population entitling the n to one, nearly to two Representatives, tn accordance with this Bill, every organized Territory is, eanally with Colorado, entitled to admission. Tho logical precedent admits Dacotah, Montana and Idaho when they present themselves, :giving us ten new Senators and five how Representatives; which is furnished by a population scarcely entitled to ono Representative in the existing States, while the average population for two .Senators is nearly a million. He argues that the Enabling Act for Colorado was passed under false statistics, and tho deliberate decision, of the people was against form? ing a State Government. Besidos, the Bill is so framed as to render its execution impossible; it is a question whether it is not in itsolf a nullity. The message continues to argue at some length on the incongruities of tho Bill, and concludes as follows: "The admission of a State is regarded as un epoch in ils bictorv marking the progress of the nation, but ho canno? soe that tho proposed pro? ceeding accords with ?be unform 'policy of the Government in the a.mission of new States." . Wasltlngton News. WASHINGTON, January 28.-There is a small ?rospect that thc Gold Bill, which passed the [ouse and is now befoto a committee in the Son ate, will be reported soon. It appears that if Gov- : ernment is obliged to give notice of tho saleo they \ .will be at tho mercy of speculators. It looks as though the efforts to reduce tho tax 1 on whiskey will be ineffectual. < Mr. McGinnis, whoso nomination as Minister to ] Stockholm was rejected on Saturday, thinking that [ his -onfirmation was certain, sailed a week ago. The Tribune's, special correspondent uavs Mr. : Allison's proposition io issue $o0,000,000 of 3 per cent, notes, to tuko the place of the compound in? terest notes, which are redeemablo the present year, meets with considerable opposition in tho ways and Means Committee. The friends of tho measure - desire to get it out of the Committee, and behove tnot it will pass the House. The Collectors and Assessors who were rejected on Saturday, hold their offices until the 4th of March next, unless the President nominates, and the Senate confirms, other nominations. Colonel Carrington, who was stationed at Fort Reno, New Mexico, has been removed. The people there attribute their losses by Indian depreda? tions to his in effie i on cy. . Baron Stoekel is on Ina way from Russia, to ro sume his ministerial duties at Washington. The Supreme Court, in several lottery and liquor cases, have decided that the payment of the Fede? ral tax does not authorize a business prohibited by State laws. .. . Congressional. ID the Senate, among a number of petitions, one was presented asking for the establishment of a national Bureau of Education. The Military Committee reported a Eill forever prohibiting peonage. A Bul was reported from tho committee amending acts regarding copyrights, which was passed. The President was requested to inform tho Senate why the Governor of Colorado was absent from his post; why hare; who paid his expenses; wher and how often ab ent from post. Tho same inquiry was ordered regarding- other Territorial Governors and Indian Agents. The Judicial Bill goes back to the House with amendment a. It prescribes the machinery of the habeas corvus, hut excepts from its operations military offenders, or those tainted with rebellion prior to date. The Tariff Bill was then taken up, when tho Senate adjourned. lu the House, Mr. Trimble, of Kentucky," intro? duced a bill repeal'ng the cotton and sugar tax, which was referred to the Committee of Ways and Means. 1 A Bill to amend the District franchise, extending it regardless of sex, was introduced. A motion to refer it to a special committeo' of five was lost yeaB 49, naya 73. It was referred to the Committee on the District of Columbia. A ' unsuccessful effort was mado to refer tho Impeachment Bill to a committee of seven, on the ground that the Judiciary Committee lacked time. The Chairman said the com-nittee had time; and, in answer to a question of what the committeo w;is doing, said it would be known at the proper lime no one outside of committee knew. Ho branded all reports sent North as false. A Bill was passed creating a Commission to ex? amine into tho Treasury Department. Tho Post? master-General was ordered tb leport what amount was duo contractors in Tennessee upon the break? ing out of tho rebellion. Mr. Stevens' Bill was then taken up. Mr. Julian opposed the Bill, as he favored keeping the South? ern States from representation indefinitely. Mr. Stevens had modified his Bill materially, and ap? pealed to Mr. Bingham to withdraw his* motion to refer, so tho Bill might he completed. Mr. Bing? ham declined. Mr. Stevens said that if the House should decide to re ter the Bill it would bo its death. A bitter colloquy took place between Bing? ham and Stevens. The Speaker called Stevens to order for saying that he did not believe the word of Bingham. The Bill was referred to tho Commit? tee on Reconstruction, by a vote of 88 to 65, when the'House adjourned. General News. NEW YORK, January 28.-Tho Times' special says the extremists have piled up thc rates iii the Tariff Bill so high that tboro is a possibility that thc Bill will fail altogether. A Chicago dispatim-to the Tribuno shows that Mr. E. L. Crosby made ?G50,000 profit by hie lot? tery. The Herald's Washington special says that tho New Orleans Riot Commission will r'oport this week, and the report will not be very favorablo to Louisiana.

GXSAR rules the world, and Mrs. GSSAB rules CUESAK. This is a proposion few will be found hold enough to gainsay. Such hoing the influence of woman, it becomes a matter of stupendous im? portance to consider tho causes in operation in producing this brilliant and gigantic result. Things otherwise trifles light as air, tho moment they becomo ono of the motive powers of the ''feebler" sex, cease to be thus insignificant, and tako their place among the "causes celebres.'" To .this clasB bolong, in an eminent degree, what to the initiated is known by tho euphonious term chignon. But a few years ago this- tyrant of the toilette was unknown ; now its influence is second to none of tho Great Powers. I rom an exhaustive article in a London paper, on the statistics of this now domain, wo learn that Marseilles may be con? sidered the cradle of this dynasty. Here ia the great entrepot for iho trade in human hair, more than 40,000 pounds weight being imported kliere annually, chiefly fcoin Italy, Spair and France. The French provinces which yiold tho largest supply nre Britany and Auvergne, avd buyers go round on market days, when tho young demoiselle, who wishes to dispose of her looks, mount? a wine cask, and, unloosening her headdress, showers down her hair. An active bidding follows.- The hair-dressers of Marseilles, all of whom are moro or less engaged in the chignon trade, aro some? thing liko'400 in number; of theso, four largo houses mar'ifacture among them 55,( 00 chignons annually for homo consumption alone, 30,000 of which are sent into the interior, while the 25,000 are disposed of in Marseilles and the suburbs. Ono Parisian house in the Passage des Petits Peres retails no less than 15,000 chignons annually, at prices averaging from 12f. to ?Of. each, although cliignons can be purchased as high as 250f. Chig? nons of rod or flaxen hair, which comes chiefly from Scotland, are the most expensive. When tho hair arrives at the manufacturer's, which it does in largo Backs holding something Uko a couple of cwt. each, it is thoroughly washrd in hot' wator until every particle of grease is removed from it ; it thon has a final bath of potash, and when per? fectly dry is passed through common flour. As pertaining to the literature of the subject, it is due to our readers that we should inform them that the French Academy has decided that here? after the endoariug epithot for a charming young hdy is to be "chignoneUe"-the sweet-scented lit tlo favorite flower of other days even hoing super ceded by tho modern capillary attraction. The Supreme Court or Alabama on Seces? sion. MONTGOMERY, January 24.-The Supremo Cuurt of Alabama, in a case on appeal from the Lowden County Court, has decided that tho existence of the State was not destroyed by secession, and tho military and political events that followed; that tho Government/Of the State wan a defacto Govern? ment, though not in harmony with ibo United States Constitution and Government, and that all acts undor tho authority of such de fac.o Govern? ment beforo tho surrendor, so far as they wcro exe? cuted, are valid. The validity of such act does-not ?epond upon tho conformity of tho law tov the Constitution of the United States^, Guardians who bavo made investments in Confenorato bonds and receivod Confederate Treasury notes under autho? rity of tho^ act. of tho legislature of Doccmber, 1861, in good faith, aro entitled to credit on ac? count thereof. This decision in this caso settles tho question of liability, where an administrator received Confederate Treasury notes inpayment of debts duo the estate. Chief-Justice WALKER delivered the opinion. Message of Governor Wells to the Louisiana Legislature. NEW ORLEANS, January 24-Governor Wells has concluded his message to the Legislature, which moetu on the 29th inst. Ho approves and favors the adoption of tho ' Constitutional Amendment; assumes that Congress will require thc Southern States to enfranchise all citizens; refers to tho July riots, denouncing tho assault and the killing of the conventionists as an unwarranted and un ?irovok?d mnB?acre to gratify Ate hatred felt by ho police aud mob against tho loyalists; reviews the financial condition, urging increased taxation to pay tho obligations of tho State, and for the maintenance of its credit. He gives a favorable report of the progross of the work on the levees, and leaves it the Legislature to proscribe a system of construction for the future. He recommends tho universal education of tho masses; suggests a division of the school fund; also an appropriation for the establishment of schools for freedmen; ad? vocates a system cf internal improvements; calls attention to the early completion of tho Opelousas Railroad to Texas; recommends an appropriation to defray the expenses of the Paris Exposition Commissioners, and advises an address sotting forth inducements for foreign immigration to this State._ STABILITY IN LEGISLATION AND IN TKADE.-A re? cent publication of the revenue receipts of tho United Kingdoms of Great Britain and Ireland for tho year ending December 31st, 1866, contains tho following abstract of the Bources from whence tho revenue is derived, and a comparison of tho same with tho receipts from the same sources in 1865 : Tear ended Year ended Dec. 31, 1800. Dec. 31,1805.

It will bo seen, in tho first place, that somewhat moro than two sevenths or tho entire revenue for the year 18G6 was dorived from customs alone. In tho next placo it may bo observed that too total revenue for each of the two years is very nearly the same, which is quite remarkable when contrasted with thc extraordinary fluctuations in the gross annual returns of our revenue. IMPORTANT DECISION.-In 1863 Mr. Fred. Schef fer purchased one-half of tho Virginia Hotel, in Staunton, of Mr. Booton, of Pago, for $92,500 in Confederate money-with tho privilege of taking the whole of it with:n twelve months at thc samo rate, being $125,000 for tho whole estubUshmont. Within four months Mr. Scheffer claimed to have elected to take the other half, and paid about $5000 on it, and took possession. After tho war Mr. Booton instituted snit to recover thc half, al? leging that no purchaso of thc last half had been made by Sch?ller. Thc case came up before Judge Sheffy, * at thc last regular torm of thc Circuit Court of Augusta County, and altor written argu? ment by counsel, and "numerous depositions by witnesses on both sides, was decided in favor of Mr. Schofler. Wo nuderstand it will bc curried to tho higher courl s. The whole property is valued at about $50.000 in good rooney. Mr. Scheffer, in the exuberance of his delight reauitiug from thc decision in the cause, gave a Buperb suppor on Friday evening last to tho coun? sel on both sides, anu tho Staunton Bar in general. The London papers announce that the Cunard Company, in view of tho expiration of their .con? tract for tho conveyance of tho North American mails, have applied for ostonded dock accommoda? tion at Liverpool to meet the anticipated increase of the mercantile portion of their business with Halifax. Boston and Now York. FROM FLORIDA. . By tho arrival of the steamor Kale laBt evening, we have Florida papsrs of tho 26th. The Jacksonville Union of that date, in speaking of the exodus of freedmen from this State for Florida, says: The last throe trips of the steamer Dictator have brought to this city about two thousand freedmen, whom, it is understood, havo been hired in South Carolina by contracting parties for the planters of East and Middle Florida. They aro made np promiscuously of men, women and children, and present a general sad picture of rags and filth, indicative of their passing through severe trials. v It gives tho following other nows items : Tho vacancy in tho Supreme Court Bonch occa? sioned by the resignation of Judge Maxwell, has been filled by tho appointment by the Governor of Hon. "8. J. Douglas, who accepts. The Judge is one of the old line of Judges of the State, having been appointed Judge of the Territory of Florida on recommendation of B. Watkins Leigh, of Vir? ginia, and Daniel Webster, and remained in office until the Territory became a State in 1845. Judge Douglas brings groat experience as a lawyer, with a rich store of legal learning, to all of whichMre added fino classical attainments, and the accom? plishments of tho gentleman. The Fernandina Courier, of last Wednesday, has the following item of news : At a municipal eloction, held in Fernandina, Dr. G. Troup Maxwell was elected Mayor for the pres? ent year, with tho following gentlemen for alder? men: Geo. Latham, G. Stack, Col. L. Dozier, J. J. Vaughn, J. H. McGinnia, J. B. G. O'Neill, James Burat, Felix Livingston. This, it is stated, is the Conservative ticket, elected over tho vicious Radical element that have settled in that place. The same paper says : Our harbor has boen enlivened for the last week hy an unusual amount of shipping, and our wharves piled up with building materials, machi? nery, merchandise,. &c, presented quite a lively appearance, and reminded us of old times. Every day bringa in strangers, and the dui} monotony ex? isting the laBt year is rapidly giving way to tho busy hum of the saw and hammer. And also in answer to letters respecting Florida as a pl ise of settlement : We aro constantly receiving letters from North? ern gentlemen, asking information about Florida land with a view to sottloment. Locations on the Florida Railroad and Atlantic coast as far South as Indi n River are generally preferred. That way the tido is setting. - A delightful climate, always salubrious, productive soil and endless produc? tions are attractions. The Florida Canal wiU con? nect tho Indian River region with the markets of tho world by river steamers. NORTH CAROLINA-LABOR.-Some apprehension is felt that tho supply cf labor in this section tho current year will DO" inadequate for contemplated operations. A large number of hands have gone to the turpentine regions, and others have gone to Mississippi, and other Southern States agents have beou hero tho last two or three weeks gathering up and sending off all they could get. Other agents carno in tho latter part of last week, stating ihat choy wero induced to como here by Bureau agents upon representation that there were two thousand "indigent freedmen" in this county without em? ployment. A portion of our planters have secured all the hands they need, while a large part have got only ?bout bah of what they will require. Numbers of the freedmen that have gone off have left their fain?ies behind, and unless the women and chil? dren of theso, who have worked in the fields infor? mer years, go into tho fields this, we are apprehen? sive that much land will have to he idle. It would be well under present- circumstances for our planters to turn their attontion to applying fertilizers and improved labor-saving machinery to make up for loss of labor as near as possible, resulting from tho prosont sudden and unreliable movements of the negroes, or to hold out induce? ments for white labor to come in. [ Wa?esboro' Argus, 24iA inst. Gin,'a as Remedial Agent. Gi IN, AS A BEMEDIAL AGENT, HAS BEEN IN FA T VOR with the profeaaion for u vory long period, but owing to the difficulty of obtaining a pura article, it hos fallon into di BU se in many sec tic na of the country, much to the regret ol' medical mon, who consider it almost a specific in vory many diseases. For all caaea of Gravel, puro Gin, if administered under professional guidance, will certainly work a cure; and if taken as a preventive, acting, as it doc.;, on thc bo us i ti VG membranes, it cl canses the parte so as to remove all possible sediment Admin? istered lu the sume way, it will prevent tue formatlcn of Calculi, and do away with those torriblo opera tiona, therefore, so nocesaary for tholr permanent removal. Gin is of incalculable benefit to females in those diseases BO poculiar to tho sex, and from its tonic, aa well as its anodyne propertiea, it is frequently superior to iron, bark, or evon tho electrical remedies. In casea of a poai tive tendency to Phthisis, ot Consumption, Gin, in proper quantities, by supplying or filling up the constant dying out of tho natural fire of the system, will often entirely ward off that awful disease, which carries off one-eighth of tbe population of tko United States annually. Pure Gin has this peculiar advantage over other diffusible stimuli, tliat it exhilarates without creating any thirst of an unhealthy character, it soothes while it also excites, and is a powerful nervine OB well ae on active tonic. ?BINI?GER'.S OXD LONDON DOCK.

Imo BU . January 7 FIFTEEN ?EARS AGO AND NOW. FIFTEEN YEARS AGO HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS was BtruggUng into notice against tho prejudices which ovoryUdng now, how? ever excellent, is doomed to encounter. TO-DAY it stands at the head of all the tonic and alterative prepa? rations in existence. Its celebrity has evoked many imi? tations but NO nrvALfl. Physicians pronounce it the only" safe stimulant that has ever been introduced hito tho nick chamber. Da the Hospitals of tho Army and Navy 'tho surgeons find it tho vSry beat tonic for convalescents, and" report it as invaluable for sustaining the vigor of troops on tho march, as a remedy for scurvy and all scor? butic affections, and aa tho only specific for sea-sickness. California and Australia have emphatically endorsed it as tho MINEB'S MEDICINE par excellence, and in Spanish America aud all the tropical climates, it is considered tho only reliable antidoto to epidemic fever. There is no mystery about the causes or ils success. It is the only stomachic and alterative in which aro com? bined thc grand requisites of a mild, pure and uuviUated vegetable stimulant, with. the finest selection of tonic, anti-biliou9, anti-scorbutic, aperient, and depurativo herbs, plants, roots, and barks, that have ever been inter? mixed in a medicinal preparation. It is alBO proper to state that the Bitters aro sold exclu? sively in glass, and never, under any circumstances, by tho gaUon or thc barrel. Impostors aud imitators are abroad, and thc only safeguard thc public bas against them is to see that tho Bitters they buy boar the en? graved label and noto of hand of Messrs. HOSTETTER & SMITH, and thc Government stamp over thc cork of tho bottle._ 6_January 28 To Soldiers and Friends of Soldiers. Misfortune has fallen heavily upon Mrs. DONALD RO^"E, of Orangeburg, the great friend and nurse of soldiers during tho late war. The property of her hus? band is advertised to bo Bold by thc Sheriff on tho next sale day, and she will bc left without houso or homo. Many of tho soldiers who bavo boen relieved by her kind? ness havo expressed a desire to asBisl her in this hour of her distress. She labored for no pay during Ike war, and now asks for no remuneration for her sen-ices; but wc foci that it would be a lasting reproach upon the country to allow her to be turned homeless upon tho world. We therefore propose to purchase tho plantation for her. Two thousand donors bavo already boen secured for this purpose, and wo earnestly solicit contributions from aU who arc wining to assist in this noble work. Send your money as speedily os possible.

Accustomed during tho great portion of my invalid lue to uso the different waters of the several fountains whicn boil up along that remarkaole vaUcy, dependent, indeed, upon thom tor much of the comfort I enjoy, I am satis? fied that the Excelsior Water is as weR adapted e. any other among them, if not more EO, to the purposes for which they are generally employed. It is very agreeable, strongly impregnated with the carbonic ?old, lively and sparkling. * * * I can heartily and conscientiously recommend it to all who need a gentle cathartic aud diuretic.
