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
Lett side; the patient is rarely able
TO lie on the left side; sometimes
the pain is felt under the shoulder
blade, and il 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 a dull, heavy sensation
in the back part. There is generally
a considerable loss of memory, &C
companicd with a painful sensation
of having left undonc 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.
AGUE AND FEVER.
DR.. M'LANR's LIVER Pits, IN
CASES OF AcuE AND FEVER, when
taken with Quinine, are productive
of the most happy results. No better

disease to give them A FAIR TRIAL.

Farm, Garden and Kitchen.

Misunderstanding animals must
be well fed.
Constipation is always to be
guard'd against in animals approach
ing parturition. Roots and oil-meal
should be fed them freely.
Working animals need extra feed
and care as hard work comes upon
them, especially as they shed and
renew their coats at the same time,
which of itself is no slight tax upon
the system.
Wash yoke and harness gals with
CASTLE soap and cold water, and GOV.
er over night with congresses of
wet cloths.
Attend to the cows a. calving
time. Give assistance only i'll case
of exhaustion or protracted labor.
Remove calves ut once unless they
are to be raised on the COW.
IL ewes yean early, have a care
that the lambs do not get chilled
If they should, they may be revived
by bringing To the fire, giving warm
baths, followed by friction with dry
cloths, and giving them a little milk
punch.
AS the weather grows warmer
be on the look out for ticks, scab
aud lice.
Use carbolic soap. This may be
used with good results for destroy
ing lice Oil poultry and other farm
stock.

CORN AND IORk.-FrOm careful.
ly conducted experiments, by differ.
ent persons, it has been ascertaincd
that one busliel of corn will make
little over 102 pounds of pork gross.
Taking the result an a basis, the fol.
lowing deductions are made, which
all our farmers would do well to Law
by for reference.
When corn sells for l24 cents per
bushel, pork costa l IL cents per
pound.
When corn costs II cents per
bushel, pork costs two cents per
pound.
When corn costs % cents per
bushel, pork costs three cents per
pound.
When corn costs 80 cents per
bushel, pork costs five cents per
pound.
The following statement serves to
show what the farmer realizes on
his corn when sold in the form of
pork:
When pork sells for s cents per
pound, it brings - cents per bushel
in corn.
When pork sells for II cents per
pound, it brings % cents per bushel
in corn.
An old farmer says the success of
farming is experience.
That to ask mans advice is not
STOPPING, but very often of much
benefit.
That to have a place for every
thing and everything in its place
will save many step, and is pretty
sure to lead to good tools ana to keep
them in order.
That kindness TO stock, like good
shelter, will be found to be saving
Oi fodder.
That to fight weeds, not only fay
ors grain, but does justice to your
neighbors.
That in making home agreeable,
you manage to keep your boys out
of the city.
That it is an excellent thing to
grow into iarming-not to Jump into
it wildly.
That it il good thing to keep an
eye on experiments and note all
good and bad.
That it is well to sell your grain
when it is ready.
That the first mellow sc il in spring
is your mcllowcst, and should first
be put in.
That the whole of farming is
summed up in the manure heap on
the farm.

SPAIN.

MADRID, December 30.-At meeting
of the Cortes, held yesterday, resolu-
ton was submitted and passed by the
Assembly expressing their adherence of
the manner in which the debate Of Tues
day was conducted and Of the malicious
party feeling evinced by many Of the
members.
1t Is stated in this city that Gen. Prim
has announced an intention of resigning
his official position. 1t is highly proba-
Bile that the recent developments con-
nected with the Spanish throne compli-
cation may have influenced this step on
his part. He intimates his intention to
tender his resignation to King Amaderes
in person and plead his desire to retire
to private life.
Last evening, while Gen. Prim was
proceeding from the Assembly Chamber
of the Cortes to his residence, some in
dividuals fred into his carriage, and
the General received eight balls in his
left shoulder, seven of which were sub
sequently extracted, and one of the
fingers Of his right hand was so badly
shattered by ball as to necessitate am
putation. The individuals who had
thus attempted the assassination Of
Prim were so thoroughly concealed by
mob which surrounded the carriage as to
escape observation. The authorities in
stituted thorough investigation into
the affair, but as yet have failed to effect
a capture.

ITALY.

FLORENCE, December 3O--A great and
alarming innundation has just occurred
at Rome. The Compagna Roma, an
extensive tract Of land many miles in
length and breadth, has been innun-
GATED by the Mediterranean, and half
Of il is covered by the sea. The city
Of Rome is situated near the center OF
the Compagna, and the utmost alarm
and CONSERVATION prevails among the
population. Much damage is said to
have been occasioned by this extraor-
binary food. Where the Compagna
borders on the Mediterranean it is com
paratively level and marshy district,
but little further inland it rises to an
elevation 200 feet above the sea level
An impression may be gathered from
this fact Of the vast dimensions the in
undation assumed.

LONDON. December 30.-An official
dispatch has been received by the Gov
eminent here from the French Govern
ment at Bordeaux. The Government
declares its determination not to send a
delegate to represent France at the
forthcoming Conference unless the Brit
ish Government shall first recognize the
republic. A similar dispatch has been
addressed to other powers announcing
this determination.
A dispatch from Versailles states that
Fort Avrony appears to be silent, and
has entirely ceased to reply to the fire
of the Prussian guns.
The evacuation of the department to
the east Of Paris, which had been occu-
pied by the German troops, still contin-
ues. 1t is probable that it may be done
with view to a greater concentration
of the German strength in and around
Versailles.
The entire population of the Eastern
are active in their opposi-
ton to the invaders, and in assisting the
French troops whenever an opportunity
offers. This assistance has proved ex-
tremely harrassing to the Germans.
Arms are being literally distributed
among the people in these departments
by the French Government.
The intense frost prevailing in and
around Paris proves material obstacle
to the progress of military operations.
French adyices state that the works in
course Of construction by the French
army have been interrupted, and cannot
possibly be proceeded with while the
present severe weather continues.

THE WEST.

The West is rapidly becoming dis
gusted with Grant and his policy on the
subject of finance. The Cincinnati
Chronicle says that from the day Of Pres
ident Grants election, there have been
strong manifestations, particularly in the
West, of growing sentiment that the
finances of the Government, for years
past, have been managed too exclusively
in accordance with New York and Bos-
ton ideas. The views prevailing in that
quarter are, in some important respects,
not in harmony with those which appear
to be entertained in a majority Of the
Republican States. 1t is no
disparagement of the integrity and fidel-
ity Of Mr.. Boutwell, to say that a change
has been desired in many influential
quarters, and that indications to that
effect cannot fail to have made an i'm
preston on the Presidents mind.
The Presidents financial views substan-
TALLY concur with those of the Repub-
licans who dissent from Mr.. Boutwell, S
policy, and many would prefer TO see a
Western Secretary entrusted with the
duty of giving administrative effect to
opinions so much more acceptable to
the West
