SPECIAL NOTICE.
A Popular Error Corrected.

n FOpulbf ErrOr corrected
1t is an absurd but very common error to
suppose that disordered condition of the
liver can be remediei by a simple cathartic.
Such is, however, far from being the case.
Cathartics do not touch the liver at all. It is
only when (as in the case Of Hostetter's
stomach 6itters) the laxative principle is
combined with tonic and stimulatiye ele-
rectly acted upon. The Bitters. although suf-
iiciently laxative to relieve the bowels mod
erately, do not owe their anti-bilious effects
TO purgation merely, but to their power of
pelling 1t to secrete and distribute the bile in
sufficient quantities for the purpose of diges-
tion and evacuation. Its effect upon the
stomach and bowels is such as to ensure the
regular discharge of the functions named aud
prevent abstraction or vitiation Of the hillary
fluid-in other words. to secure entiro CO.
operation with the liver.

RANKS.

We publish a communication to-day
from a respected correspondent Agrii-
cola. We concur with him that banks
are a necessity, but wes do not agree
with him in his view ofNational banks.
We have within the last few days pub
ished tables showing the immense
profits made by National banks since
their establishment. We have again
and again shown that the system is a
monopoly and SO intended by the Con.
gress establishing it, solely for
the purpose Of making a
market for United States State
bonds. We have pointed out the
iniquity Of the revenue law which taxes
all private and State banks ten per
cent. on every dollar of circulation is
sued by them. The Tennessee Democ-
racy when in Convention last assem-
bled declared: eve, the representa-
tives of the Democratic and Conser-
vatiTe party IN Tennessee in convention
assembled" ''favor the abolition of
the present odious national banking
system" By that declaration we
heartily stand.
