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 a rheumatism in the arm.
The stomach is affected with loss of
appetite and sickness the bowels in
general are Cos;ive. sometimes alter

Wlthpaln, accompanied with dull,
heavy sensation in the back part.
There generally aCcnsiderable loss
ofmemory, accompanied with apain-
tul sensation of having left undone
something which ought to have been
done. \ slight, dry cough is some
times an attendant. The patient
complains WEAKNESS and debility;
he is easily startled, his feet are cold
or burning, and he complains of a
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 tortitude 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-

renewed its proposition to lease,
with the addition that on the COM
pletement of the road they would
lease it for fifty years from Jan.

for the first ten years, $40, 900 per
annum for the second ten years,
and $500, 600 per annum for the re-
naming thirty years. Hon. VIM.
Mines, President of the Shenan-
doah Valley Railroad Company,
asked for time to submit q
bid from that company, which
was granted, and the board adj
journed to give the time asked.
The bid OF the Shenandoah Valley
Company was afterwards offered,
and both bids refused by the VAL
ley director. It is understood that
the Shenandoah Valley Railroad
Co. has given the stipulated notice
of thirty days for the termination
of the lease of the Valley Railroad
