OLD SCENES REVISITED

The progression Of lie is SO simple, and in
the greatest number OF persons so quiet, that
men only know, at leugtn, that they arc
changing, but seldom perceive the process of
changing. We knew that we are no longer
boys, but cannot tell when we crossed the lipe.
We are conscious that we have reached man
heoi and that youth has departed Bot 50
gently did il go,that we are as those who listen
10 a blrd singing iu tree. After il has flown
they listeu still, aud only know its fight
because ltno longer sings.
But POW and then we are turned back, and
brought. face to face with the past, in such
way that two lives gaze at each other ;,
aud we walk as if one identity had two ex-
pressions.
The fecolleciious of the past beat upon the
heart, and we stand in its door, as parent to
whom coules back the child not seen for scores
of years, uncertain whether to doubt or to ae-
cept the familiar straugeness. After long
absence, let any Que revisit the scenes OF his
childhood bone, aud see whether these things
be not so. There will be soft bewildermeut,
a sad Joy of excitement, which perhaps, one
may not be able 10 analyze, hut Which is, in
fact, tue flowing together of the two great
streams OF lie, the past and the present.

ARREST OF MURDERERs.-Tw colored men
have been arrested charged with the murder of
Mrs. CARRIER aud Elizabeth Realn, at Lancaster,
an account Of which We published last week.
They are residents of Lancaster, and have long
been known as thieres-spending the greater
portion of their time 10 the county prison -
When searched. upwards of $50 in gold and
silver was found upeu their persons, which
amount corresponds with that which Mr.. CARRIER
says was IN the possession Of his wife. There
is no doubt that The object of the murderers
was to get possession Of the money said to be
in the house. There was considerable bloed
upon their clothing. The evidence against
them is of such character as 10 leave no
doubt of their guilt. The feeling against the
murderers was great, while they we're up-
deIgoing examination, that fears were enter
tanned thai the excited crowd would infict,
summary vengeance upon them. A few moments
however, served to calm the excitement, and
the officers were allowed to convey them to
prison without hindrauce.

Disease of the Liver.

By this disease we understand an infsm
nation other in the membrane or substance
of the liver, known by dull pains in the
right hide, the stomach always disordered
the yellow tinge OF the skin, dry cough
tongue coated. costiveness. high-colored
urine, and ola thick nature; severe weak.
ness and severe pains in the head
The quantito of corrupted humors in the
liver, causes a defective secretion of the
bile. The liver when healthy, serves as a
filter to the blood, to seperate all inquiry
iom it, or to refine it. When diseased, it
cannot purify the blood, which. when sent
to the lungs, brains, and other parts in a
morbid condition, may cause Jaundice, Con-
sumption Insanity, &C.. and Withholding the
natural stimulus, 10 the intestines, causes
Dyspepsia, Piles, and other complaints, as
you perceive the direct way to unrave. and
tear the whole system to pieces.
A p%atieut, suffering from this complaint,
should resort to speedy relief. Yet there
are very few medicines worth a cent in Gu
ring diseases. VIVA. then shall be done!-
We say, use DR.. Morse's Indian Root Pills,
as they are composed Of plants and roots;-
they will be found a sure cure for this pain
full disease. because they purge from the
body those corrupt and stagnant .humors,
and so cleanse and renew the blood, which
is the cause no, only of the disease of the
liver, and the inflammation of the kidney
and the bladder, but of every description oil
disease. Grom 3 10 4 of the above pills,
taken every night on going to bed, will in d
few days. entirely relieve the body Of every
thtng that is opposed to health.
DR.. Morse's Indian Root Pills are
sold by all dealers in Medicine.
