B,, says; "A little more than two years ago My hair began to turn gra y. and fall out. At. r ,"OP " ter the use of one bottle of Ayer's Hair Vigor my hair was restored to its original color and ceased falling out. An occasional application has since kept the hair in good condition." --Mrs. H. F. FENwICii, DigbY, N. S. Growth of Hair. "Eight year ago, I had the vario- loid, and lost my hair, which previ- ously. was quite abundant. I tried a variety of preparations, but -with- out beneficial result, till I began to fear I should be permanently bald. About six nionths ago my husband brought home a bottle of Ayer's Hair Vigor, and I began at once to use it. In a short time, new hair began to appear, and there is now every prospect of as thick a growth of hair as before my illness." — Mrs. A. WEBER, Polymnia St., New Orleans, La.

It piled 658,000 more on the public debt last month. The London Globe says it is rumored that Sir Charles Tupper, the Canadian High Commissioner, will not return to London after his visit to Canada. In addition, the Globe says, it is believed, that the Hon. Mackenzie Howell will resign the Premiership of the Domin- ion, and that Sir Charles Tupper will assum that office. Sir Charles Tupper is in his 75th year. The Ontario Government once again came out ahead in its appeal in a point taken in connection with the arbitra- tion case now going on between itself and Quebec, and the Dominion. This point was in connection with the Indi- an claims, the Dominion desiring to re- cover from the Province the increase or augmentation of annuities paid by the Dominion to Indians. The Pro- vince appealed and won the case an Monday. A siguificent feature of the recent great mass meeting in Vankleek Hill, Precott county, at which Hon. Mr 'Laurier was the chief speaker, was the presence on the platform as a support- er of the Liberal policy of Mr Simon Labrosse, formerly llonservative M.P. The county needs a change, and it is even now in progres. When the gen- eral eiection takes place, the people will decree it. Mr Labrosse but joins the procession. AATANTED—CANVASSERS, MALE AND FE.

There is no future in America for the negro, except to be a menial and sQnllion, may be with a few exceptions here end there, but the mass will be looked upon as the fag end of creation. Therefore I favor naturalization of the American nergro as it is the only thing that will elevate him to the plane of respectability and recogni- tion. He Dau go to Africa, and with no obstacles, become a statesman, philoso- pher, scientist; engage in commerce, ao- qulre vast wealth, and be valued in foreign countries according to his standing. Here the negroos will be overshadowed by the whites for ages. Then look at the blood and carnage that the negro is the victim of in this country. He is amused at all times of outrages, many women in the oases having not yet been born, but lot us suppose that the negro is guilty—whioh I deny, however— all that he is accused of in regard to hie estial propensities, then he ought to leave the country to get beyond the temptation, and the United States Government ought, and the people in general should assist him in doing so; but if not guilty the philanthropists of the country should aid him in getting away to stop suoh a flow of blood, and avert the vengeance of a just God, as blood will call for blood sooner or later. Moreover the Supreme Court of the United States has declared that the black man has no civil rights under the general government, a species of injustice and discrimination unknown to the regions of hades. The devil Is no respecter of Dolor. Under the decision of the United States Supreme Court every form of race and plass legislation has been enaoted by some of the states Many other things I could say in this connection, if I had time, whioh would show that the colored people of the United States are a set of fools if they do not make some kind of a move for their betterment, and the white people are unpardonably oruel, if they do not help the blank men to help themselves, after getting the use of their sweat and ton for two hundred and fifty years. Yes, there are millions of slaves in Africa to -day, but slaves to Afrioans. The superior blanks have the inferior blacks in bondage, as they have had from time immemorial, and none of the superior blacks were brought to America. The Africans sold their slaves to the American buyer. We look to Christianity and civilization to re- move this evil from Africa. Of course the slaves would be unfitted for self govern- ment now, they have been reduced to puerility from years of servitude, as any nation would have been ; it will take time to civilize them and infuse new blood into their lethargio veins. But slavery does not mean much in Africa, to be sure the mas- ter has the privilege of having his slaves put to death, but otherwise their lives are easy. They are sent into the interior to hunt for ivory teeth, eto., but only a por- tion of their find is demanded by their owners. Tho only slave markets' are in the far interior. Many of the most suo- oessfnl men in Africa aro runaway slaves from the interior, who have imbibed oiv- illzation.and are doing well. The Africans are great linguists. Mul- attoes have' more judgment, but not the quickness of intellect of the Lull -blooded negro. Africans are naturally a virtuous set. Licensed Lewdness is unknown in Liberia; chastity is the first and always .the most important lesson taught. Women are taught that there is no sin whioh brings in its wake suoh awful consequences. Young girls are told that im god luck will ever attend those who go astray, pro- verbial threats being that "the leopard will get them; their brat born will die,and death may at any moment strike them down." You often read of the numerous wives of the native kings and chiefs, sometimes the number reaching seventy-five or a hundred, but wife in this instance means virgin, and refers to the female slaves, from the sale of whioh the chief gets his revenue. It is a great honor for a man' to marry ono of the king's wives. Some- times when a chief gots tired of a wife he sells her, but she goes for half price. During his last visit to Africa Bishop Turner accompanied a party of Spaniards 500 miles across the Sahara desert to an oasis where thorn Is a trading poet and fort. Hero he saw the Bedouins and wan- dering Arabs, and experienced several se- vere sand storms, simoone and other do- sert horrors, Ho is accompanied this trip by Dr. Demiok, of New York pity, the famous orator, vi'ho Is general sooretary of the African missionary department.

Probably the most oonspiouous figure in contemporary history of the African rape in America is Bishop 11. M. Turner, D. D., D. C. L,. 1;,L„ D. His episcopal jurisdio- tion includes Penedo, Nova Sootia, the West Indian Mande and Amerfoa, and he annually attends sixteen conferences. Bishop Turner is celebrated not only for missionary work among his colored breth- ren but for his unremitting efforts to ameliorate their oonditon, politioahy, so- cially and morally. He was born in Newborn, S.C., in 1884, of free parents, but was bound out to a slave owner, and grew up in the midst of slavery on a cotton plantation. Ho had a cove for learning, and from childhood de- toured greedily any crumbs of knowledge whioh fell in his path, being indebted for his first eduoational aliments to a small white boy. At 15 he became office boy for two young lawyers, who appreciated his talents, and gave him fragmentary in- struction in reading, arithmetic and other primary branohes. The young Turner studied law hero, too, but already his re- ligious instinct had inspired him with ministerial ambitions, and at the age of 17 he entered Trinity college, Baltimore, as an unmatrioulated student, At Trinity college he applied himself to divinity, Greek, Latin, Hebrew and German, and was licensed to preach at the youthful age of 19, but until ho had passed his 24th year, he had never studied English gram- mar. He was made doctor of divinity at the Wilberforce university, Ohio; received the degree of dootor of laws at the Penn- sylvania university, and had the title of' doctor of canon law conferred upon him by the National College in Africa. Bishop Turner has just returned from Liberia, the free African state and which he considers the blank man's Utopia. He says: "Liberia is a part of the African domain reaching from the southern part of Sierra Leone, an English colony, to the Cavallo, claimed by the French. It is a territory of about 400 miles sea frontage, extending 250 miles anteriorward, The land was proctored by the American Colonization Company in 1821, through the efforts of Commodore Stookton, of the United States navy,as a home for the free colored people of the fruited States, and such slaves as might be emancipated. From that time to this there has been gradual emigration. The negroos have been sucoessful in build- ing up a republic modelled after the United States government. There is a president, cabinet, postmaster general, oustoms houses, judges, courts, state houses, two gun ships, and all the machinery of a gov- ernment. Liberia has a civilized popula- tion of 45,000; the same number of semi - civilized inhabitants; 1,500,000 heathen, BISHOP TI7RNER. all of whom are under the laws of the Li- berian republic. Civilized laws,however, are enforced only to a limited extent among the heathen Africans, thus poly- gamy and fetichism, to a greater or less extent, prevail throughout the country. There are many schools and churches, and one fine college managed by men of schol- arship and ability. One great impediment in the republic 1s the want of banks. The national treasury ants as the banking in- stitution in the dealing with bills of ex- t,hange, etc. Two banks were started in Liberia, but both fell into the bands of sharpers and wont down. The only money the Government has issued has been copper bills. These always pass in Liberia for face value. The people of Liberia are strict observers of the Sabbath, and even through the week there aro few amusements going on. The lower classes have sham fights, and fanny dances on the streets which aro observed by the higher classes from their windows, but the chief pleasure seems to bo found in the places of worship. Tho Africans are extremely musical, and con- gregational singing to be heard in some of their religious meetings is splendid. There is not a bar room or a liquor shop in the country. Many of the stores keep spirits in stook, but it is almost impos- sible to purchase any. There aro black merchants' of every grade, wholesale and retail, and barter trading. The foreign credit is excellent. Liberian commercial men can write to France, England or Germany for thous - nods of dollars' worth of goods and they will be forwarded immediately. Hundreds of steamships from Europe are constantly hugging the shores of Africa, while there is not a single one from the United States doing any business with Africa. Yet the United States to in a better condition to have immense trade with Africa than any other division of the globe, as American tools of every description, farming uten- sils, medicines, eto., are more in keeping with the needs of the negro than any European prtioles. Yes. I favor African emigration. I be- lieve that slavery was permitted in the providence of God to bring the blank man into contact with this giant Caucasian race, for purposes of lmbibing civilization and a'su4loienoy of Christianity to enable them to be great factors in the redemption of Africa. I believe it - is time that the Amerioan negroes were opening their eyes to their present and future responsibilities in that connection. Africa Is the richest country under heaven, more gold, silver, gems and every form of mineral to be found there than Upon any other contin- ent. Liberia has the largoet trees, .finest woods for all kinds of furniture, the most beautiful plumage and the most luxuri- ant growth of trogjcal crops; rice, sugar, bananas, pine-apppl�$s, oranges, coo anuts, limes, tamatindb ` coffee, in fan ever' tropical produot.

WhOo faith .ie the fundenne# tai prinel- ple of Minion, hope le the food of the soul, and charity is the honied` whioh sweetens the lr art, and the three cool - bitted are the bulwarks of ghristitenity. As faith is essential to salvation, se, 014o is oharlty neoossary for the aogompolsh, hent of Ulod's grin, while, as Sia Paul tells us, that, "Through faith tde glory in the hope of the glory of the Son of God." Faith cornea to us by knowledge, and is strengthened or, weakened acoord- ing to the guidance of r passion. It 1s a gift of Sod, and as such should be treas- ured with the greatest mare. True faith begets firm hope, and inspires an ardent Charity, while all three enriohes the soul, making it zealous for the honor and glory of God, and its own sanetifloation, makes it ambitious by its yearning for supernatural happiness, and inflames it with a Christian ardor, Tho Christian's duty not only consists in attaining a knowledge of God but loving and serving Him; Indeed St. Paul assures us that "faith without good works avatleth nothing," so that it Is just as essential to practise as it is to profess faith, and Jesus Christ Himeelf tells us that the great commandment .of the law is: "To love the Lord thy God with thy whole soul and with thy whole heart and with thy whole mind and with thy whole strength," whioh we can only do by obeying Him in all things and so merit the glory of the blessed, the end for whioh we wore created. --Francis S.
