of those who have died of different diseases, that

evidence of having at some time been diseased.
Liver affections equally prevalent in beasts.
Every butchers knows that the livers of cattle,
sheep, and swine, are ten times as frequently dis
ea'ed as any other organ. A healthy liver each
d " secretes about two and half pounds Of bile.
When il becomes torpid, congested, or if, from any
cause, it be disabled in the performance of its du-
tees, it is evident that the elements of the bile
must remain in the blood, thus irritating, poison
ing, and perverting, every vital process. Nature
attempts to rid the system of these noXiOus ma
terals by means of other organs, the kidneys,
lungs, skin, etc., which become overtaxed in per
orming their additional labor, and unable to with
stand the pressure.
The brain, which is the great electrical center
of all vitality, becomes Ovcrstimulated with I'M
healthy blood, and fails to normally perform its
f. notions. Hence there is dizziness, headache i'm
pairment of the memory, dizziness, gloomy fore
bodings and irritability of temper. When the
blood is diseased, the skin manifests discolored
spots, pimples, blotches, bois, carbuncles, and
crofulous tumors. The stomach and bowels,
piles dropsy, dyspepsia, or diarrhea, is the inev
table result.
