When we look around at these magnif-

the Smithsonian Institution, how we re-.
joice that human ity has been blessed
with such man as James Smithson, the
Englishman, who bequeathed to the Unit
ed States over $500, 600 to establish the
Smithsonian Institute at Washington,
"for the increase and diffusion of knowl-
edge among men. Wherever our flag
has waved on the expanse of the lands
or waters of the earth our accomplished
officers have honored their names by
sending specimens to the Smithsonian In
stitution, to further the object of that
glorious bequest BY the spirit of
Smithson the age has grown as witness
ed among the enlightened portion of hu.
manity so that the last score of years
has developed to us the gigantic strides
and pentrations of the scientific mind
to such an astounding extent as to
lead us to hope that the knowledge of
science will become the blessing of every
mind, SO that the pursuit of truth NAV
be prosecuted by the hosts of minds that
adorn the most advanced nations. Thus

LIVER PILLS,
roR THE cJks OF
Hepatitis or Liver Complaint,
DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HEADACHE.

Symptoms of Diseased Liver.
DAN in the right side, under the
edge Of the ribs, increases on pres
sure sometimes the painis in 1.-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 sometimes mis-
taken for rheumatism in the arm.
The stomach is affected with loss Of
appetite and sickness; the bowels in
general arc costive, sometimes alter
native with lax; the head is troubled
with pain, accompanied with dull,
heavy sensation in the back part.
There sgenera.ly considerable loss
ofmemory, accompanied with pain
ful sensation Of having left undone
something which ought to have been
done. A slight, dry cough is some-
times an attendant. The patient
complains OF WEAKNESS and debility;
he is easily startled, his feet are cold
or burning, and he complains Of n
prickly sensation Of the skin; his
spirits are low; and although he is
satisfied that exercise would be bene-
fetal to him, yet he can scarcely
summon UP fortitudc enough to try
it. In fact, he distrusts every rem
edy. Several of the above symp-
toms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few of them ex-
isted, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.
