FRIDAY Evening,Ian. 8, 1853,


Wednesday morning, Jan. A.
IA long memorial from Edison b. Olds Of
lCfrcleyille, on the subject Of Bills Of Exc
change, aud the practice OF Bamks in rela-
lion 70 them was reudto the Senate by the
clerk. Il was inst such a documeat, as
might be supposed to emRnate from such a
source. His satanic majesty was made a
conspicuous character. The Senate order
cd the memorial to be printed. We shall
probably have occasion TO refer to, and point
ont the peculiar literary, at some future
time.
The proceedings OF the Clevrlond meet
ing in relation 10 the Erie mob was read.aRd
to the special committee on that
subject, composed of the following gentle
and Lee. We presume this committee will
take immediate action, as the subject is Of
pressing neees. ity.
The Governors message was taken up,
and its several parts referred to the nppro-
pirate Committees.
Tn Senator from Licking, (Mr. Follet,)
introduced resolutions that provide for the
payment by the State, Of all postage on
public documents, ordered TO be printed by
the Legislature. As this is a new step, and
involves a constitutional question, the sub
iect was referred to the Judiciary committee.
Mr.. Townshend gave notice that he should
move a proposition TO amend the constitu-
ton Of the StBte by striking out the term
",Uhitp," so as to give the right of citizen
ship to others besides white persons. Also,
to strike out the term "male,' so that fe-
males shall possess the same rights as males
SO far as they nre restricted by that instru-
ment. This proposition created a sort OF
broad grin around the Senate Chamber. 1t
is not. however. thought that the union Of
the Sta IS will be seriously disturbed by it,
whatever effect it may have upon tie union

HOUSE, This forenoon nothing OF inter-

a joint resolution introduced in the Senate,
touching the Erie difficulties, and which had
been laid on the table in the Senate to be
printed. Being printed, aud laid on the ia
bles of members.

No part Of the system is moreliable to disease than
the Liver, it serving as a iilterer TO purify the blood,
or giving the proper secretion TO the bile; so that any
wrong action of the Liver effects the other important
parts Of the system, and results variously, in Liver
complaints. J~aundice, Dyspepsia, etc. We should
thu refore watch every symptom that might indicate
a wrong action Of the Liver. These pills being COM

augments the secretion from the pulmonary mucus
natter ID. An Alternative, which changes in some
inexplicable manner tho certain morbid action of the

to the nervous system, renewing health anil vigor to
all parts ofthe body. 9TH. A cATHARTIo, which acts
