DAIN 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 costive,
sometimes alternative with lax the
head is troubled with pain, accom-
panied with d dull, heavy sensation
in the back part. There is generally
a considerable loss Of memory, ac-
companied 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 10 him, yet
he can scarcely ummon 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.
AGUE AND FEVER.
DR. M,LAnE's LIVER PILLS, IN

taken with Quinine, are productive
of the most happy results. No better

How Washington City is Governed.

There is a,feree quarrel going on in Wash
ington City between two wings of the Re-
publican party over the municipal Offices.
Affairs have been so badly managed by
the present officials as to cause q revolt in
the Rad i ranks, and meeting, embra-
cling may of the best white men of the
party, was held for the purpose of express
ing their views and devising some remedy
for existing evils. The room in which
they are assembled was invaded by gang
of disorderly, drunken negroes, who had
been supplied with liqour and urged on
to the nice fat places. The result was
that the assembly was completely at the
mercy of bowling mob of blacks, and the
objects of the meeting completely defeated.
This is specimen Of the kind OF order
which prevails at the National Capital
since the admission ofnegroes to til rights
of citizenship. Bad, incompetent and dis
honest men have been elected by negro
votes, and the municipal affairs have h'o'
so lily and eXtravagantly managed IT,,
the decent white citizens of Washington,
without respect to party, are largely in
favor of abolishing the present system of
municipal government altogether and of
transferring the entire control of the city
to Commission to be appointed by Con
gress. But for the fact that all the intlu
ence of the Administration was exerted to
elect the present incompetent and corrupt
officials, Washington city would not be so
sadly misgoverned as it is at present. 1t
is now in sad condition truly, and there
seems to be no hope of relief except in the
abolition of popular goyel nment, and the
transfer ofpower to set of Commissioners
chosen by Congress. What commentary
is furnished upon the policy Of the Radi-
calls by these facts q Ian. Intel.
