From which it will be seen that the
cS ports during the present year have
been more than double that OF last year.
The Coosaw Mining Company has
doubled it's capacity for handling rock
and loading vessels at its wharycs.
When this company began operations
in 1870 there was only twelve feet of
water then known but i'll 1874 another
channel was discovered which payc
them fourteen and s.-half feet from the
company's whaives to the mouth of Bull
River. If the United States government
could be induced to place three more
buoys in the latter channel the navipa
rion of Coosaw river would be much
improved, both as to safety and convenl
encc, and attention is also needed to the
buoys already placed there
The value of these works to the labor
ing classes on the islands is very great,
especially during the present hard times,
as hundkds of men are constantly en-
ploycd at good wages, and always
promptly paid. The season of ''picking''
| rock begins next month when several
hundred more men will be engaged in
picking rock from the shallow portions
OF the rver which they put in huge fats
that are towcd to the works when loaded.
This is, by many, considered unhealthy
as the men are obliged to work in the
water, but as ti.cy arc paid by the
ton and it pays handsomely there is no
lack of hands ready to undertake the
work. The captain o: n phosphate fla
Is no mean parsonage, and as they feel
their Importance they are not the men fer
idlers to trife with, especially when
they are mounted on the decks of lhcir
crafts. A royalty Of one dollar per ton
is paid the State on this rock, which
IS duly appreciated by our lawmakers
who appropriate the revenue from it in
advance every year, and for fear thcv
might he deirauded took the precaution
last winter to designate Phosiatc Organ
and on the principle that it takes
a thief to catch thief one was selected
that had just pockctcd $4,000 from the
phosphate royalty for 5000 worth of
advertising.

SPRINGFIELD, Ills, July 26.-The pros
pcct to-day is that to- morrows convention
will be the largest that the Democracy has
held here Tor years. The arrivals to-day
have been very numerous, Unlike the
Republican convention, the candidates do
not outnumber the delegates, and the re.
suit is that although the Leland, which is
the political headquarters is well crowded.
there IS very little, indeed, of that pulling
and hauling which characterized the crowd
gathered here few weeks ago, and which
is so disgusting to those who have a love
tor Republican government. The main
topic OF conversation to-day has been
THE PROPOSED COALITION
with the Independents, and so eugrossing
is this that the prospects of the candidates
have been very much neglected 1t isvery
safe to say that, while all are willing to
accept FROM the Independents any aid
that may be prUherod, large majority OF
the delegates are most emphatically opros-
ed to any arrangement which will
necessitate any material concessions GU the

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
T0AIN in the right side, under the edge

sometimes the pain is in the left side; the
patient is rarely able to lie on the left
side; sometimes the pain is felt under
the shoulder-bla and it frequently ex-
tends to the top of the shoulder, and is
sometimes mistaken for a rheumatism in
the arm. The stomach is affected with
loss ofappetite and sickness; the bowels
in general are Costive, sometimes alterna-
tive with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally aconsiderable loss ofmemory,
accompanied with painful sensation of
having left undone something which
ought 10 have been done. A slight, dry
cough is sometimes an attendant. The
patient complains of WEAKNESS and de-
bilty; 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 beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
