neg" Hon. John c. Conner is building n
house at Sherman that will cost $4,000.
When completed we understand it will be
one of tho best and pretticst private resi-
dcnces in the State. Sherman is lucky in
getting as citizen QUO Who will improve
his property and beautify the town. We
hope the residence will fully come up to
the tasteful design, and that its infexibly
Democratic owner may live thousand
wears to enjoy its comforts.

SYMPTOMS of a Diseased Liver.

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAM in the right side, under the
edge of the ribs, increase on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the
left side; the patient is rarely able
to lie on the left side; sometimes
the pain is felt under the shoulder
blade, and it frequently extends to
the top of the shoulder; and is some
times mistaken for a rheumatism in
the arm. The stomach is affected
with loss of appetite and sickness;
the bowels in general are costlve,
sometimes alternative with lax; the
head is troubled with pain, accom-
panied with dull, heavy sensation
in the back part. There is generally
a considerable loss of memory, ac-
companicd with a painful sensation
of having left undone something
which ought to have been done. A
slight, dry cough is sometimes an at
tendant. The patient complains of
WEAKNESS and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains of a prickly sensa-
ton of the skin; his spirits are low ).
and although he is satisfied that exer-
else would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he dis
trusts every remedy. Several Of the
above symptoms attend the disease,
but cases have occurred where few
of them existed, yet examination of
the body, after death, has shown the
LIVER to have been extensively de-
ranged.

. PROsTRATION PLAYED OUT,

Violent purgatiyes emetics, salivants, blisering,
and bleeding have had their day.
The sick can no longer be persuaded that the best
way to cure them is to destroy the little strength
that disease has left them.
Dyspeptics, instead of dosing themselves with en-
salts, aees, eOlycinth alap and other powerful
cathartcs tone their digestive organs and regulate
their bowels with HOSTETTERS STOMACH
BITTERS.
Persons of bilious habits. instead of throwing the
whole glandulsr system into a state OF morbid irri-
tstiOn with mercurisl poison seek relief and find it,
in the operation Of that wholesome vegetable altera
tive upon the dsordered liver.
Nervous sufferers, tremUlous, weak and despon-
dent recruit their shattered energies with a course
Of the great invigOran, and bless the day when the
adulterated liquors of commerce superseded by
medicated stimuant, perfectly efficient and en-
tirely harmless.
Travellers by land and rejoice in the possession
Of an agreeable corrective, which protects them
from the evil effects Of malaria, from sickness
and from the disturbing influences of changes of
temperature, and change Of water.
The weak and debilitated feel their strength re-
turn and their spirits revive under its acing ap
petizing, gently exhilarating action.

health, or to the aged and decrepd

John Bull is faitly aroused by the recent
murder Of Bnglishmen by the brigands in
Greece, and threatens 10 make such an example
OF the cut-thrOsts as he made of King Theod-
rus the, ASyssinian savage, for like treatment
OF British subjects. Greece exists a. an indie
pendent power by the moral support of the
western nations, and King George Of Denmark
Is maintained upon the throne with the distinct
understanding and the implied pledge on his
part.that he shall conduct the affairs of Greece
10 the common advantage of Christendom. 1t
VIII pretty certainly lose him his crown if he
does not soon repress brigandage in his domin-

NJ Boule has read before the Academy of Sci
enees Of France remarkable paper on HYDRO
Ihobla- 1t appears children, when bitten,
owing to their equanimity and want of appre-
hension, mostly escape the disease. Further, of
30 persons bitten by rabid dogs 100 only were
afiicted by hydrophobia; that once the msIady
appears, there Is no cure for it, and the only
preventive is TO burn the bite with red hot iron.
Many members asserted the cause of madness
IN dogs was the bsrbarous habit of "muzzlingv
them. Marshal valiant cited the town of Dijon;
where dogs were in the full enjoyment OF liberty,

The New York interests opposed to the Funi-
nag Bill are In the habit Of making that measure
responsible for pretty much all the ills flesh is
heir TO- Thus If business Is dull in New York.
IL Is because the terrible Funding Bill is going
10 pass; and If business brightens up, it is be-

defeat of the Senate Funding Bill in the Ways
and Means Committee, and consequently In tine

Peciany in produce and merchandise, and
threatens to teetotally smash up the great busi-
ness interests of the country!

amendment, and doubtless will be amended in
the house, II Is certain that those who are rais-
ing this windy clamer against it are loading IL

ness was dull in New York and elsewhere be-
lore the Funding Bill was thought of. and will

congress that this bill, a bill, should not pass
