The RESPONSIBILITIES of the Liver.

The liver has s very important part to perform In
the animal economy. Its function is twofold. The
fluid which it secretes tempers the blood and reg
ulatss the bowels. and upon the quantity and quail
ty Of the secretion depends, in great degree, the
adaptation Of the blood to the requirements Of the
eysten and the due removal Of the refuse matter
which remains in the inteetines after the work OF
digestion has been accomplished.
One Of the principal uses Of Hostettsrs's Ssom-
ach Bitters is to tone and control this somewhat
unruly organ. The snti-bilious properties Of the
preparation are scarcely secondary to ts virtues
. etomachc. Its operation upon the liver is not
violent like that Of mercury but gradual and gen

sensitive gland 1t regulates its action by degrees.
Hence, 1t is q safe remedy for bilious disorders,

organ can be restored to its normal condition the

Important to Soldiers.

The decision rendered this week in the
Supreme Court, in the case Of the United
States against Hosmer, is one OF more
than ordinary interest to large class OF
persons who are the last to find out their
own rights, and too often the first to be
imposed upon by their agents or attor-
neys. The Supreme Court, after consid-
cradle delay, now decides squarely that
soldiers who enlisted in 1861, for three
years or the var, and were discharged on
surgeons certificates Of disability within
two years, are entitled to their 500 bounty
equally with those who were discharged
for wounds, or the heirs of those killed.
This decision, too, is final, and ends the
matter. The case arose on appeal from
the Illinois Court of Claims. A judgment
was given by that court for the claimant
for 800 bounty for enlistment under the
Presidents call for volunteers In 1851, he
having been discharged for disability upon
surgeons certificate. The question was
whether, under the act Of Congress rati-
flying the act of the Executive, the claim
ant could recover, the act providing
that two years service should have been
rendered 70 entitle the soldier to the
BOUNTY, unless discharged from wounds

NAPoLEON's OUTLOOK FOR A
RAINY DAY.-The Chicago Tribune
says:
"Our London correspondent
assures us, as an ascertained TACT,
that the Emperor Napoleon has
enough money invested in the Eng
lish funds to yield him an annual
income of Gl00,000. This sum,
capitalized at the English rate of
interest, represents over E3OOO,OOO.
He also estimates that the Emperor
has as much invested in other cOun-
tries. According to this statement,
of the future. He has been so pre-,
pairing matters, that in case of
trouble, he will not be left in pow
erty. Upon the interest of $4,000
600 he can manage to live quite com
fOrtably, even if the French do
drive him from the throne.
The means by which Napoleon
has been enabled thus to accumu-
late this vast fortune were very
simple. For twenty-five years he
has had his hand in every Bourse.
He could depress the funds with a
frown, sink them to zero with a
threat, and render them buoyant
again with smile and a promise.
That he has used this power for his
personal profit is not surprising.
He has always had his throne upon
a mine. He has never felt any
security, save that which the bay
onet conferred. His reign has been
one of force throughout and it is
but natural that, clothed with the
power to manipulate the funds of
all Europe to suit his own interests,
he has done so to build up this i'm
menSe fortune for the future.
Should this war end in his detlIrone.
ment, he will be able to set up
house keeping with the Empress
and send the Prince Imperial to
school, without experiencing those
inconvcmeuccs of poverty which
he endured before his return 70
