HEART DIsEAsE.-Many persons suffer
with heart disease without knowing it
suddenly they drop off and their friends
are astonished, on a post norton exami-
nation, to learn that they died of heart
disease. The heart, like the brain, is the
seat of life-its diseases are of several
characters. The most common are
valvular disease, fatty degeneration, and
functional arrangement. If the liver be-
comes deranged, and digestion is i'm
paired, the heart, through sympathy and
juxtaposition, becomes abnormal. The
following symptoms indicate approach
ing disease: Palpitation. giddiness, faint
ness, nervous prostration, deranged diges-
ton, vertigo, cold extremities, etc, etc.,
for which the old school will administer
iron, opium, antimony, mercury, and
many other mineral poisons. Heart dis
ease is blood dlsease-purify the blood
remove distractions to limpid circula-
ton by taking that Vegetable Aherattoe,

sound person in two or three months. 20

WEST VIRGINIA.

CHARLESTON, Jan. 20, 1875.
The election OF q United States Senator here
occasions more than an ordinary interest.
To-day the Legislature met TO ballot TOR
O choice for that position. but as announced
In these dispatches yesterday, the result did
not begin 10 indicate the successful man.
There are several schemes on FOOT one OF the
tamest and most iruitiess OF which Is to proiong
the contest until the 9th February next. IL Is
then proposed that ID. D. Johnson, President OF the
Senate, will assume the executive control OF West
Virginia, and as no United States Senator Will
then have been elected, it would become incuni-
bent upon him TO appoint successor to A. J.
Boreman, the present Senator, whose term o..
office expires on the Sd CT March next, and
Jacobs to be that successor. This is regarded as
ialacy by those here who most thoroughly con-
versant with the political sentiment in this State.
Among the prominent men here who said 70
be engineering this scheme Is c. ]. Faulkner,
member elect TO the House from the Second
district, and who was former Minister to the
court OF Napoleon III. Faulkner Is a representa-
tive OF the Virginia chivalry in the sublmity o. Its
decadence and man with the ambition and vigor
OF youth, though his age IS nearly seventy.
He can be counted out OF the Senatorial race, and
his influence here, in o national point OF view,
amounts TO absolutely nothing. or course
JACOBS, who defeated J. N. Camden for the
uoNoihoIeuP' as III independently ID 1877, Is
largely interested in the success OF this
movement; but Camden has a support in
financial way which. IL Is believed VIII
ultimately triumph over other combinations
against him. So far Walker, the State Printer
here, leads the van, but as he is nothing more
than an ordinary rising politician, an eloquent
speaker and thorough democrat his
chances cannot be counted upon as Ger.
tain. J. N. Camden seems to be the
iavoritc, though Judge John Brannon, OF
Lewis county, and formerly OF Winchester. in old
Virginia, begins to be counted among the favored
few. When the Legislature met to-day ballot
was taken, but In the absence OF a choice by the
democratic caucus, it gave no Indication OF the
