FOR THE CURE OF
Hepatitis or Liver Complaint,
DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HEADACHE.
Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.

Symptoms Of a Diseased Liver.
DAM in the right side, under the edge
of the ribs, increases on pressure;
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 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, accompanied with a dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is &c.
morally considerable loss of memory,
accompanied with a painful sensation Of
having left undone something which ought
to have been done. A slight, dry cough
is sometimes an attendant. The patient
complains of WEAKNESS and debility he
is easily startled, his feet are cold or burn
ing, and he complains Of prickly sensa-
ton of the skin; his spirits are low; and
although he is satisfied that exercise would
be beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely
summon up fortitude enough to try it.
In fact, he distrusts every remedy. Sc
veral 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 IL
YER to have been extensively dcranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.

OF AcuE AND FEVER, when taken with

WHY Is IT THUs2

hepresent stringency OF the money market
In this section, caused in the main by the low
price of wheat and the consequent non.sale of
the bulk of this years crop SO far, gives suf-
acient ground for the query; Why is it tina,
our farmers do not engage more extensively
in other and more profitable productions
Thousands of dollars are sent out of the
county annually for bacon, lard, beans, clover
and timothy seed, potatoes and other vege>
tables, fruits, &C., which should be retained
At home. and in addition our exp"rts of these
articles should at least equal the quantities
now imported, which prove continual drain
upon the circulating medium of the county,
and in case of ready sale of the wheat crop
(asasPreseut) not being effected results in the
so-calIed "hatd timesn through which We are
nov passing.
This is not As it should be. It is an un-
healthy state of affairs, which our farming
community should take into serious considers
ton, and apply the remedy. Let our crops be
more varied, and in case of dullness in the
market as to one particular product, let us be
prepared to ship something else that com
nauds more remunerative price, and We Will
at once feel a sensible realization Of favor
able change in our local financial matters
This subject is fit food for discussion among
our subordinate Oranges of the Patrons of
Husbandry, and We are sure they could not
more probably employ the hours of their
meetings than in devising means for public
relief in this particular

THEMBXT CONGRESS.

The New York Herald says that the next
Congress will present an unfamiliar spectacle
to the frequenter of the galleries of the House,
aud correspondents will be kept busy noting
the new faces which have just appeared upon
the scene and bewailing the absent heroes
whom an untoward fate has left at home
The diguiied bearing aud white uustache
of Fernando Wood the eccentric comedy of
Sunset Cox the modest. quiet face of Michael
Kerr; the weazen form of Alexander H.
Stephens, will employ as many pens as before.
General Banks will be hailed upon his return
to the floor as Democrat once more, and one
or two other Republican leaders in times past
will be noted for their activity on the other
side. Speaker Blaine, hurled from his OIym
plan throne to the common lot of common
Congressman, will cause many Sapphic tears
to flow, and General Garfield, long the hay
seed god of bombazine quill>drivers, will be
described as picture of utter loneliness and
despair. But Dawes, for so many years the
heavy father of the House, owing to the tidal
wave which swept over Massachusetts, will be
found not there, neither in the Senate, where
Democrat will sit in the chair of Chas Sum
ner. Horace Maynard. dark and swarthy as

brOsisl locks of Gen. Negley, match for
Logan's raven hair aud Farnsworth's flowing

longer float through the corridors and in and
out of the Speakers room. Gen Sypher's
military. bearing will be missed at the head of
the army ofstrikers. But, saddles. picture of
