A " I - ' ? * ~ teacaiamsmpssi . ? ? An Atinim DkJ.'?On? the most lingular wagers we* ?ver hdgrd of, ?m made in Chicago oq the day b$bre the municipal election in thkt city. The bet was between a Water-street merchant and Ned Osborne, of the T&moot House, the largest segar and tobacoo dealer in the oity, and waa to *he effeot that if Wentworth was not elected, Osborne should have the privilege of kicking the Water street merchant aforesaid from the Tremont House to Springer street. The day after the election, tne merchant having lost. came to Osborne s store, ami presented hia person to hiro for the contemplated kicks and demanded that Osborne should take the stakes. Osborne had been training his right leg.all the previous dnv, and had armed bis feot'^ilh a heavy cowhide boot, with soles'as thick as two clapboards. The merchant started up by the Tremont, Osborne delivering a heavy kick as bo started but drew back his foot witb a spasmodic action and paroxysm of countenance apso lutely pitiful. Lie tried another one, but the loser flinched not, and kept on his way undisturbed by the volley lie bad received.? The result of this was worse than the first, -and he fairly curled up on the ground and howled with pain. The merchant stopped, and camly inquired, 44 why don't you take the stakes f" U'hat have you got in the basement of your pants ?" cried Nod' 44 Milwaukie bricks," shouted the merchant," and we arn't within a mile of Springer-street yet." Osborne subsided, paid the champagne, and has been wearing a sliht slipper ever since.?Buffalo Republican. ' Forn CiicnoiiKR Rdbked in T.ikcoiv County ? Slrange Freak of an Idiot.? We learn from the Fayetteville (North Carolina) Observer of Thursday morning that CountyLine Church, situated three miles above Lynchburg, was destroyed bv fire on Wednesday night of last week. And on the following Friday night. Mount Moriah Church, two miles north of Mulberry village, was also burned. Both were the work of an incendiary. The Observer also stn'e? that on Monday night last, about ten o'clock, New Harmon Church, two and a half miles North of Charity was set on fire and entire }y consumed, and at about an hour later or at eleven o'clock, Charily Church was discovered to be in flames, and the foe coin municaling to Charity Academy, both buildings were soon in ruins. The loss is estimated at from six to eight thousand dollars. The citizens arrested a man who is said to be about half-witted, and on the following day he coufessed to burning the four churches. Mn. Ethkiudcik, of Tennessee, has presented a bill in the House of Representative* to establish and regulate a paper circulation of uniform value throughout tins United States. It provides that the United States Sub-Treasurer, or Treasurers of the mint and its branches, shall reecivo deposits of gold or silver bullion or gold, and give the deposit or* certificates therefor, in sums of from twenty* to one thousand dollars. These certificates are to resemble bank notes, to be signed by the Secretary of the Treasury, or some one appointed for that purpose in his name, and countersigned by the officers receiving the deposits for which they are to be exchanged. Dean Stone, while residing on a living in the country, once had occasion to unite a rustic couple io the bonds of matrimony.? The ceremony being over, the husband began to sink in resolution, and falling' (as some husbands might do) into a fit of repentance, he said : " Your reverence has tied the knot tightlv, I fancy ; but under favor, may I ask your reverence if so be you could unite it again?" " Why, no," replied the Dean, u we never do tliai on this part of the created ground." " Where, then cried the man. "On that," he replied, pointing to the burying ground.

The National Democratic Convention. , J he Ion^r anticipated and much talked of time, so pieplant with interest to the eountrj* at large, ami politician* and wire-pulling office-seekers in particular, has arrived at lust, ami the National Democratic Convention is now in session in the city of Charleston. On Monday last, nt 12 o'clock, it assembled in the Hall of the South Carolina Institute. The delegates "of the tbirtj* three States wore present in good force, and most of the dtlegations were full, as we learn from the C'otirtVr, from whose elaborate report of the first day's proceeding*, we glean such information as we think will he of interest to our readers. Francis If. Floukkot, of Arkansas, was chosen President, pro. tnu., of the ' onvention. On being conducted to the Chair, and after addressing the body in a few remarks, in which he.said lie should f'ldeator to so demean himself as to bring about a speedy organization, the Convention proceeded to that first duty. llev. Citas. IIaxckkl. D. I>? of Charleston, delivered an impressive prayer, the delegates rising.and standing. Wii. F. 11 itchik, of Virginia, was cliosan temporary Secretary. Quite a confusion and general disorder seems to have sprung up, at the outset, in regard to some points of order, and judging from the.reiiort, we should say that there was largely wanting that harmony and decorum which should have characterized this deliberative body of intelligent representatives. The decisions of the Chair, ruling out of order, were repeatedly nppcale-< from, by tho parties so ruled, and not withstanding the Chair was every time sustained, some of the parties wanted to lie heard any how. For this, let the parties.themselves hear the blame. There are contested seats from New York and Illinois. From New York tho "llurds " nod the " Softs," or the Fkfnando Wood and Dcan Hiciimono representations, each claim seats in the Convention. It was in regard to these delegations I lint the confusion above alluded to arose. Each cluinied a right to be heard in the organization of the Con venlion, while objections were uiged that neither party had a right to participate until it was decided by the Cob venlion which party had the right to do so. The rules of the last National Convention were adopted for the goveraiiisnt ot the pn s-nt Convention. A resolution providing for the Appointment of two Committee*, r?cli to consist of one member from each State, to be selected by the respective delegations?one committee on Permanent Organization, and the other on Credentials?was adopted. The resolution provides that in determining the controversy in regard to the disputed seats of the 111* no in Delegation, the members of the Committee on Credentials of that State shall not he permitted to vote thereof., and in determining the controversy from the State of New York, the members of the Committee on Credentials front-that State shall not be permitted to vote.

Tbero is nothing more despicable than stealing the reputation of a reliable article to impose upon a community an inferior and worthless one, and*yet it is done. Fifteen years ago Ileimstrret A Co. introduced a llair Rostorative, under tho name of " Inimitable Hair Coloring." Its wonderful restor ntU'c properties mailt it immensely popular, anil grey and bald hoads were like to beeoroo a thing of the past, when the country waa flooded with imitations, the use ol which waa mat only useless but absolutely injurious. The original preparation is a scientific combination, made with oil and stimulating spirit*, affording an agreeable hair wash, while all the imitations are made with water, making the hair harsh, dry and frirsy, requiring, after it dries, tlio use of oil or wash to make it look decently. Wo would therefore advise our reaih.rs to buy nothing but the original Inimitable Hair Coloring or Restorative, which is reliable.? Tit.g Whig.
