OF the entire Republican State tick

The vote i'll detail, as given in large
towns, shows English has generally

Symptoms Of Diseased Liver.
Dam in the right side, under the
L 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 c~ostive,
sometimes alternative with lax the
head is troubled with pain, cor
panied with a dull, heavy sensation
in the back part. There is generally
a considerable loss of memory, &C.
%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 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 fortirude
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.

DR. M'LANE's LIVER PILLS, IN
CASES OF AcUE AND FEVER, when
taken with Quinine, are productive
of the most happy results. No better
cathartic can be used, preparatory to,
Or after taking Quinine. We would
advise all who are afflicted with this
disease to give them A FAIR TRIAL.

The hatred of Germany and every
thing German, which has been engendcr-
cd il France by the recent war, shows
itself in variety Of ways. The hardest
thing which the Paraisians eau bring
themselves to hate with sufficient corIi.
ality, is tho beer of Bavaria. Now this
is most decidedly q German production.
snd ought not to have the love of INV
patriotic Frenchman, but to hate Baya-
rlan beer is test of patriotism tor rigid
Tor human nature, especially French ma
t'lre, to bear, SO it is proposed to do
away with the difficulty by presenting n
still stronger motive OF patriotism Tor
drinking tho beer. The Figaro has pro
posed duty of five centimes Der glass
on oil imported German beer, the pro.
oeeds Of the tax to be accumulated for
the expenses of a future war against Ger
many. Nothing could be more ingeni-
GUS and satisfactory than this plan. It
is thereby made merit as we'll as plea
sure to drink Bavarian beer, patriotism
is is nourished by every glass, and then
there is poetic justice in using the Ger.
man beverage for the accumulation Of
