A NEWSPAPER MAN PARALYzED.-We are
panied to learn that our old acquaintance,
L. A. Andrews, of Peoria, ILL.,, was stricken
with paralysis on Friday last, and is not ex'
pected to recover. Mr. Andrews was one of
the first newspaper solicitors in this country,
having been for the past fifteen years con-
neoted with the Peoria Transcript and the
La Crosse Republican both of which papers
owe their succc IS to his superior abilities as
a solicitor, in which capacity he has never
been e1celled by any man except it be by
Col. Richardson, of the Davenport Democrat,
who is recognized as the best solicitor in the
United States, while Gen. Nsgley, of Kan
sas, stands second. Mr.. Andrews many
friends will learn of his misfortune with
feelings of deep regret.

THE Liver is more liable to disease than
any other organ in the human system, and
when that fails to do its duty, it leaves the
weak points OF the body exposed, as the bile
is not thrown off, but taken up By the blood
as it passes through the great filter of tn 9
system, and becomes impure. Then follows
e ssiu of disease, whose name is Legion.
There are many that suffer from pain in the
side and across the body, dull, heavy,
drowsy feeling, headache, pain in the
right aide, often severe pain in the bowels,
costiveness, fatulence, diarrhea, more or
less indigestion, loss of appetite, sallow
skin, white of the eyes yellow, sinking Of
flesh, depression of spirits, at other times Q
great craving for food. Some of these symp-
toms are caused only by torpidity of the
Liver. 1t is impossible TO give all the
symptoms of deranged Liver, and they
are all durable without the aid Of Calomel.

A RuNAwAY.-Lieut. Shaler's horse, while
standing in front of Schindler's meat mar
ket this afternoon, took fright at something,
and jerked its head clear from its bride.
The Lieutenant at once threw his arms
around the animals neck, and was dragged
across the street, but lost his hold, and the
horse mounted on to the sidewalk, and
dashed up Illinois street, toward the
bridge, and finally brought up near
Adams street. The buggy was entirely
demolished, the horse was unhurt. As the
runaway passed Madison street, it alarmed
the 6ery and high spirited horse Of Grant &
Co., and the selfraising fosr wagon and
horse started toward the river, with Wing
after il. That horse stood no show at all,
for Wing outran it in q race of square, and
had TO walk back to il.

WASH YOUR HANDS, GENTLEMEN.

Almost any Sunday RfterDo just before
election last fall, Lord HAWley might have
been seen hustling across the streets to
shake hands with laboFers, farmers, and he
didn't object to climbing up three story
scaffolds on the Island to shake hands GOV
cred with mortar or soiled with the dirt of
honest toll Lord HAwley was elected went
back to congress, and returned. He has
been at home now about two weeks and
these msn whom he used to take 30 cor
diallyby the hand would like 10 see him once
more among them. They would like 10
have him explain why it is they have been
ordered TO work ten hours, when congress
has told them eight hours is q legal days
work. The officers on the Island say it is
because il il necessary in order to use up
the money now on hand before the expirR-
ton of the present fiscal year. These men
would like to have Lord Hswley come over
and shake hands with them once more and
tell them how this can be when it was nee
essary to discharge so many democrats just
after election last fall. They say their hands
are Just IS clean and the scsffolding is no
harder to climb now than it was before cleo
| ton
Perhaps the Union can throw little
light on this subject If it will do SO, we
will agree not to tell Jim BeArdsley and it
may save Lord Hawley from soiling his silk
stockings by climbing those nasty scaffolds
aud getting his lilly white fingers pressed by
the great dirty paws of those horrid Ia borers
