u depend entirely on the digestion the d'-
geston on thn hillary secretions. IL - obvious,

Tho liver is ihe largest gland in the body, and
fOm its minute aud tardy circ nlation, tbe seat
Of disease is much ofiner attached 10 that organ
than il suspected. Bilious disorders are insidl-
Gus in their attacks, slow in progress and much
varied in symptoms. Hence many fall victims
to them from the nature Of the disease not being
scasonably detected, or properly treated where
by the chain Of diseased action becomes strength
ened and lhe links more difficult TO be broken -
So general is the prevalence Of Liver Con,pl lamt,
that this organ is probably the seat Of most all
men,s unattended with F.brile action aud that

necied with the healthy or disordered function OF

scripiion. They do not all appear IN any ind-
vdual case, but show themselves in different per-

more than lulness after meals, with some sore
ness of the bowels, n disposition 10 drowslness;
erecions Of wind, ringing in the cars, dizziness
OF the head, GOODNESS Of the exuenl,ies, followed
by burning In the soles Of the feet and palms Of
the hands, an unpleasant and sinking sensation
in The pit Of the stomach. Some cases are at
tended with watchfulness, or unre(reshng sleep
disturbed by dreams. Pain. also in either side,
most frequently in the lefi, extending 10 the
shoulder blades. The mind is often ireiu and
irraied by the most triang causes; the memory
becomes impaired and there Is general dlsm-
cnatsn for bodily or menial eAenion. The
sisnIaeh sympathizcs, and is so much disturbed
as 10 lond the patient to suppose that his CON-
plants arise from au affection Of this organ,
while it is only affected by being in the vicinity
Of the real disease.
