shocked on J'Vidny by tho receipt of a
telegram from Charleston, announcing

A negro by the name of Moses Boyd
was killed last Friday on the place of

him with a hoe tin the hand of the said

have not succeeded in catHiing
him.

HAIR RENEWER
wu the first preparation perfectly adapted to
euro diseases of the soalp, and the first ?uooeeaful
restorer of faded or gray hair to its
natural color, growth, and yontliful beauty.
It has bad many imitators, but none have so
fully mot all the requirements needful for
tho proper treatment of the hair and scalp.
Hall's Haih Kenewkb has steadily grown
in favor, and spread its fame and usefulness
to every quartor of tbo globe. Its unparalleled
success can bo attributed to but ona
cause: the entire fulfilment qf its promisei.
The proprietors bare often been surprised
at tho receipt of orders from remote countries,
wlioro they bad never made an effort for
Ms introduction.
Qliense for a short time of Hall's TIaib
IIbnf.wkr wonderfully improves the personal
appoarance. It cleanses the scalp from
all impurities, cures all humors, fever, and
dryness, and thus prevents baldness. It
stimulates the weakened glands, and enable*
them to push forward a now and vigorous
growth. Tho effects of this article are not
translont, like thoao of aloohollo preparations,but
remain a long timo, which make*
its uso a matter of economy.
