 THE LIVER PILLS, For the cure of LIVER COMPLAINTS, all BILIOUS DERANeEMENTs, SICK HEADACHE, &c. In cases of
 FEVER AND AGUE, preparatory to, or after taking Qui- nine, they almost invariably make speedy and permanent cure.
 As specifies for the above men, toned diseases, they are Unrivaled, and never known to fail when ad- ministered in accordance with the directions.
 Their unprecedented popularity has induced the proprietors,
 FLEMING BROTHERS,
 PITTSBURGH, PA. to dispose of their Drug business, in which they have been success fully engaged for the last Twenty Years, and they will now give their undivided time and attention to their manufacture. And being de- termined that Dr. M'Lane's Cele- brated Vermifuge and Liver Pills shall continue to occupy the high position they now hold among the great remedies of the day, they will continue to spare neither time nor expense in procuring the Best and Purest material and com- pound them in the most thorough manner.

as Mr.. Burlingame and MIR. Summers secre-
tary had by this time been called in, they left
threatening violence. -Four such calls were
made during the night and another Saturday
morning, but Mr.. Sumner being still attend
ed no violence was done. There is no doubt
that it was the intention of the assailants to
assassnate him upon the spot, If he could
have been found alone.
The friends Of Mr.. Sumner were greatly
incensed, and as the facts became known In
the city the public excitement was Intense
Most of the Massachusetts delegation and
many others visited him at his lodgings at
once in the morning, offering their services.
and Messrs. Wilson and Burlingame escort
ed him to the Senate There have not been
any apprehensions of an assault by congress
men, but by private individuals acting as
their tools. The Republicans declare, how
ever, that any attempt to harm him shall be
met with serious and deadly work, and are
determined that he shall not be taken una
wares or alone again.
Mayor Berret and the chief of police in
vestigated the matter at once, and the prln-
cipal offender, named Capt. Henry, called up
on Mr.. Sumner in company with the Mayor.
and apologized for his conduct, claiming to
have been intoxicated at the time Mr.. Sum
ner accepted the apology.

G. ?" The editor of the ri,tsburg .jcwnal
gives the following account of the only time
he ever saw Mr.. Lincoln
The only time We ever SAW the Republ
can candidate for the Presidency was at the
Chicago Harbor and River Convention. on
the 18th OF July. 1917. The way he was re-
ceived then throws some light upon the ale
CATION that he is an entirely new and un-
known man. The appearance on the stand,
of no:abIlitieS, such as Tom Curwin. Judge
Bates. &c. was generally marked by ap-
plause on the part of the audience Some
half dozen had been thus greeted, all of
whom we knew by their antecedenis. when
the appearance of one who. like King saul,
was the head and shoulders above the crowd,
called down an amount of applause second
to no man who had appeared on the rostrum
The way he was received evidently
showed that his face was entirely
familiar to the governing class on the Lake
Shore. We inquired of some delegates who
this gentleman was. Oh, said they. that is
Abe Lincoln of Springfield, the ahlest and
wittsSt stump speaker on the Wing side in
the State of Illinois, Now, Chicago is pro-
baby loo mics north of Mr. LIS residence.
and this applause was given spontaneously
by those who appeared to know him WE'LL
One Of the by>tanders even then declared
that next to Tom Corwin. Lincoln was the
ablest stump speaker he had ever listened to:
that he combined extensive information, log
zeal reasoning, ready wit, entire command of
his temper and quickness of taking alvan-
tage of any blunder his opponent would
make, more fully than any public man he
had ever heard. This strong recommends
ton from good judge led US to scru,inze
more closely than usual his head and fea-
lures. These are very marked and peculiar
in their expression so much so, that at anv
time since, II We were portrait painter, We
could have made tolerable likeness of them
from memory alone. His nose. mouth, and
the entire expression Of the lower part of his
face, have general semblance to the same
features of Henry Clay. His eyes and fore
head convey the idea of not less mtellec;u-
al but differently organized mind. We can
not remember exceeding halfa-dozen counte-
nancos that have more distinctly impressed
themselves upon our memory than that of
Abraham Lincoln. The way his appearance
on the stand was greeted by that Convention
clearly showed that he had qualities which
appealed strong y to the mass. He had new
er been in Congress, and was mainly known
from his stump speeches in the Clay cam
paign of 1914. No man who had not strong
ly marked traits of character about him, and
who had never filled public stations of i'm
portance, could have called out the cordial
greeting that was extended to him."

ance of Mars is ever varying, being at times
hardly visible to the naked eve, and again
flashing upon our vision more than twenty
times his former size, and burning with a
brilliancy and ferceness which renders him a
fit representative Of the old Roman war god.
His ordinary appearance is very similar to
that of the red star Antares in the constella-
ton Scorpio, which the careful observer can
not fail to recognize each clear evening On
the southeastern horizon.
This is rare display of planets which We
are now enjoying in evening twilight, and
well compensates for the temporary loss of
Sirius, Pleiades, and the bright stars in ORR
on. After the disappearance Of Jupiter and
Venus, our nightly heavens will be less bril-
Iiantly arrayed until the fall and winter
months shall again bring up the bright con-
stellations now passing eastward of the sun.
