To avoid these little perplexities we advise auch of our readers to use Professor Wood's Hair Restorative, which will, Inthecourseof a few weeks, change the whitest hair to its natural color. It does not dye the bafr, like most of the hair restoratives, but nro- ducea a gradual change of color from the roots of the hair to the nnal end, and gives it a fine ami glossy appear anoe.

Romance of the Post Office J. Uolbrook, well known ua a Government agent, Lub just published a book called, "Ten years among the Mail bags." We find in our Eastern Exchanges several extructs, which are both amusing and instructive. We copy the following : THF INVALID WIFE. Not the least painful of the various duties connected with the detection of crime is the sometimes necessary one of revealing a husband's guilt to his'wife. i anticipated a severe trial of my feel-ngs in making such a disclosure durinf? the progress of a recent important case where the mail robber was in possession of a mail-key, by means of which he had committed extensive depredations. He was at length detected, and has latelv en tered upon a ten years' term in the State prison. On his arrest he manifested much so-icitude for his wife, fearinsr the intelli gence of his situation would overpower her. "She is in feeble health at most." said he, "and 1 am afraid this will kill her." It was necessary, however, that I should see her in order to get possession of some funds, a pari of the proceeds of the robber ies, which her husband had committed to ner keeping, turnished wuh a written order from the prisoner, and leaving him in the Marshal's custody, I proceeded to cull on i he invalid, racking my brains while on the way to her residence for some mode of communicating the unpleus-nnt truth which should disclose it gradually, and spare her feelings as much as possible. On my arrival at the boarding house the note was sent to the lady's room. It road as follows ; "My dear Susan : Will you hand to the bearer a roll of bank notes which I left with you. "Edwin." The lady soon made her appearance. She was young, rather prepossessing, and evidently in delicate health. Finding 1 was bearer of the note, she addressed me, expressing great surprise that her husband had sent a request so unusual; and with an air of independence observed that she did not "knovabout paying over money under such circumstances to an entire stranger." Desiring not to mortify her unnecessarily by making explanations in the presence of others, I requested her to step into a vacant room near at hand, and, after closing the door, I said in a low tone : "It is an extremely painful thing forme Mrs. M , but as you do not seem inclined to comply with your husband's order, I must tell you plainly thru the money was taken from the mails by him. There Is no mistake about it. He has had a mail-key which I have just recovered, and has made a full acknowledgment of his numerous depredations. I beg of you to bear this dreadful news with fortitude. No one will think less of you on account of his dishonest conduct." I expected to seethe poor woman faint immediately, and had mentally prepared myselt lor every emergency ; but a mo ment alter, J should have been more likely to have fallen into that condition, if astonishment could overproduce such an effect; for ns soon as I had finished what I was saying, she stood, if possible more erect than before, and with some fire in her eye, and one arm "akimbo," she replied, in a spirited manner: "Well, if he has done that, he's a darn ed fool to own it I wouldn't !" She gave up the money, however, soon after, and although the recklessness dis played in the speech above quoted, seemed to make it probable that she was im plicated in her husband's guilt, it after wards appeared that the exhibition of "spunk," was due to the impulses of a high-spirited and excitable nature, which sometimes as in the present instance, broke away from control, and went beyond the bounds ol decorum. On the subject of unjust complaints against the carelessness or culpability of post-omce clerks, the following illustration will be found of interest : THE BITER HIT. A lady of very genteel and respectable appearance called one day on a prominent New England postmaster, with a letter in her hand, which she insisted had been broken open and re-sealed. She handed the letter to the postmaster, who examined it, and appearanco sertainly seemed to justify her assertion. She further declared that she well knew which clerk in the office had broken it open, and that he had previously served several of her letters in the same way. Upon hearing this, the postmaster requested her to walk inside the office, and point out the person whom she suspected. Such an unusual phenomenon as the appearance of a lady inside the office, produced, as may be supposed, a decided sensation among the clerks there assembled. Nor was the sensation diminished, in intensity when the postmaster informed them that the lady was there for the purpose of identifying the person who had been guilty of breaking open her letters I This announcement at once excited the liveliest feelings of curiosity and solicitude in the mind of almost every one present, and each one conscious of his innocence, indulged in conjectures as to who that somebody else might be, whom the accusing angel (?) was to fix upon as the culprit.All their conjectures fell wido of the mark. After looking about for a moment the lady pointed out the last man whom any one in the office would have suspected of such an offence one of the oldest and most reliable of their number. "That is the person," said she, indicating him by a slight nod of the head; "and if he persists in making so free with my letters, I will certainly have him arrested. Why my letters should alwaya be selected for this purpose, I cannot imagine; but if any more of them are touched, he will wish he had left them alone." The direct charge and the threats, pro- u uvcu a greater commotion among his el-low clerks, than in the mind of the gentlemen accused. Waiting for a moment after she had Slioken. hp brnkn tho kra.lri I I vav.v n.av lVU less silence that followed her words, by saying calmly, "Mrs. , I believe J" siTl . it -mails my name sir. "Have vou concluded vour rrmnrlr. madam?" "I have ir, for the present." "Then madam. I will tnkn tha KWtw to inform VOU that umir huxhimJ im I ho person on whom you ought i to expend your inuignation. lie has at different times taken several of your letters from uie omce, opened and read them, and after re-sealing, returned them to the letterbox havimr mudu those letters to which he forced me to listen, as furnishing sufficient ground for his course, and justifying former suspicions! He earnestly requested me never to disclose who had opened the letters, and I snouia nave continued to observe secrecy had not vour accusation forced me to this disclosure in self-defence. If vou wish nv statement corroborated. I hink I can produce a reliable witness." I he lady did not reply to this proposi tion, but made anrecip.tite retreat, leav- nff the clerk muster nf thn finlrl nnrl wna never afterwards seen at that post office. The following anecdotes are illustrative of the amusirifr incidents ivhirh (vrnoinn. O ally cime under the eves of DostofEca clerks : TO MY GRANDMOTHER. A little bright-eyed, flaxen-haired bov was one day observed to enter the vestibule of the po8toffice of Washington, with a letter in his hand, and to wait very modestly for the departure of the crowd collected about the delivery window. As soon ns the place was cleared, he approached the letter box, and carefully deposited ins episue merein, lingering near, as it to watch over the safety of the precious doc ument. His motions attracted the attention of the clerk stationed at the window, whose curiosiiy induced him to examine the superscription of the letter just deposited by the little fellow. The address on the letter was simply, "To my Dear Grand mother, Louisiana; ' doubtless some good old lady, whose memory, in the mind of her innocent grandchild, was redolent of cake and candy, and all the various "goodies" which grandmothers are generally so ready to supply, to say nothing of the well- meant otnees ol kindness to which their sometimes blind affection prompts them. "L.oolc here, my little man," said the clerk, "what is your grandmother s name, and where does she live?" "Why, she's my grandma, and lives in Louisiana." "Yes, I see that on the letter, but it will never get to if her name isn't Dut on. and the place where she lives." "Well, please put it on, sir." "But I shall not know what her name is. unless you tell me." "Why, sir, she s my grandma don t you know her? She used to live at my house." After the display of considerable ingenuity on the part of the clerk; and a trood deal of innocent evasion by the child, the old lady's name and placo of residence were finally ascertained, and added to the address; after which the little one went on his way rejoicing in the assurance given by the clerk that now his "dear grandmother" would certainly receive the important epistle from her darling. THE DEAD LETTER. The following is contributed by "Dave," of the Columbus (Ohio) post-office : During my term of service at the Gen eral delivery o( this office, it was my custom, upon delivering dead letters from Washington city, to make a list of the names of the persons to whom they were addressed, and stick it up in the lobby of the office, with a note "Call for Dead Letters."One day an elaborate specimen of Erin'i sons, whose brawny fist and broad shoulders seemed to denote a construction with an eye single to American railroads, loung- eu into tne omce, and up to the board containing the aforesaid list. He looked at it a moment, and burst into tears. I spoke to him through tho window, and asked him what was the matter. To be Continued.' WM. A.
