1t Is o most undoubted fact that DIR. San
fords Invigorstor, or Liver Remedy is one Of
the greatest discoveries made in medicine the
past century 1t has been a study Of the DR..
during twenty years practice to find what
particular organ, when diseased. caused the
greateet number of ills or pains, and his con-
clusion is, that tho liver is the greatest reg
ulator OF the system and the most liable to
disease, while if kept free from disease is q
preventative of Dyspepsia, Jaundiee, general
debility, &c, while last bnt far from least We
mention consumption: for our experience is
| that more cases of consumption occur from
diseased liver than from all other causes put
together.
Taking this to be correct hypothesis, we
have but to find a remedy with which to co.,
rect the liver and we have q cure of nearly
all the diseases We are subject to by simply
useing a preventative. That the vigorator
is such remedy Is beyond doubt to al who try
it. for it's virtues are such that for all COM
plants arising form liver arrangements it is
an unfailing remedy, while as family mem
icine, for all diseases of the stomach or bowels,
which are caused in greater or less degree
by liver arrangement, it is the safest, sursst
and most eficacious remedy known.

Constitutional Amendments.

The proposed amendments to the Constitu-
,tion OF pennsylvania are again published in
the newspapers Of the several counties. They
are word for word, the came that we're pub
lished last year; and having been agreed to
by two successive Legislatures, the next step
towards their adoption will be their submis-
sion 10 . vote Of the people at the October
election. The amendments are four in num-
Der, and the vote viii be taken for or against
esca enc seperssely. They are ell Of sufficient
importance to demand the serious attention of
every citizen, and we think their e1pediency
and propnety arc SO apparent, that the peo-
pie, without distinction of party, will be ready
to accept them.
The first amendment relates to the public
debt. and proposes the following salutary
provisions:
l. That the State Debt shall never exceed
$3.50. 900, except in case of war, Invasion. or
insurrection, or for the purpose Of, redeeming
the present debt.
II. A Sinking Fund shall be provided sufi-
cI Mt to pay the interest on the existing State
debt and to reduce the principal $250, 900, a
year.
III, The credit of the Commonwealth shall
not in any manner be pledged or loaned or
the Commonwealth become a stockholder in
any corporation.
". The Commonwealth shall not assume
the debt Of any county, city, borough. or
township, or any corporation; unless the same
was contracted by the State in time of war.
V. No county, city, or other municipal cor
poration, shall become stockholder in or,
loan its credit to any company Or corporation
whatever. e5 aa -5
The second omendment provides against
the needless division of counties by prohibit
ing the erection of any new county containing
less than 400 square miles, and requiering
the expressed assent Of the voters ofthe coun-
ty, to authorize any division of such county
which shall cut off tenth of its population
The third amendment relates principally
| to Philadelphia and propose to amend the
7. first Article of the Constitution, by striking
from its several sections the words which
recognize the seperate municipal existence OF
| the old city of Philadelphia.
This amendment also proposes some changes
in the mode of apportioning the State for
| Representatives the most important of which
is that it will allow the city of Philadelphia
| (and any city with taxable population sufi
cient for two Representative to be divided
into single Representative Districts.
| Tie fourth amendment proposes new Sec
| ton to the Constitution, in which the power
! Of the Legislature to alter, revoke or repea
any charter of incorporation, (Which of course
it possesses, by virtue of its sovereignty. al
though some affect to dispute iD is expressly
declared.
This is mere outline of the propose
Amendments, but sufficient, We trust to SHOW
| their importance, and to Induce our reader
to examine them carefully, SO that they ma,
be prepared TO vote upon them with an inteli
gent understanding of their nature and bear
ing our present fundamental law.-Reodin.

IMPORTANT TO RAILROAD TRAvELLERs.-A
court in Ohio has decided that the loss of a
railway ticket falls upon the purchaser. 1t
held that, the ticket being negotiable by de-
livery, any one picking up the lost ticket cod
ride upon it. The ticket agent, having sold
ticket to the plaintiff, the latter was obliged,
if he rode to give it to the conductor. 1t
was held further by the court that passengers.
by the purchase and delivery of tickets to the
conductor, did not become lessees of the cars;
that they were still in the fossession and un-
der the control of the company that if the
company ordered a passenger who had thus
paid his fare to leave the cars, and he refu-
sed, he might be elected without rendering
the company liable to an action for assault and
battery that they would, however, in such
case, be liable for breach of their duty as
common carriers and might be made to pay
such damages as resulted from that breach o.
duty, either for detention or any other loss
