SYMPTOMS of a Diseased Liver.
CyHPtOIII' Or
DAIN inthe right side, under the edge


DAIN inthe right side, under the edge
Of the ribs, increases on pressure;
sometimes the pain is in the left side; the
patient is rarely able to lie on the lett
side; sometimes the pain is felt under
the shoulder blade, 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 ofappetitea and sickness; the bowels
in general are costive, sometimes alterna-
tive with lax the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There Is
generally a considerable loss oflHemory,
accompanied with painful sensation OF
having left undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight, dry
cough is sometimes an attendant. The
patient complains of wcariness and de-
bility; 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
have occurred where few ofthem existed,
yet examination ofthe body, after death,
has shown the LIVER to have been ex-
tensively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
DIR. c. McLANE's LIVER PILLS, IN
CASES OF ACUE AND FEVER, when taken
with Quinine, are productive of the
most happy results. No better cathartic
can be used, preparatory to, or after
taking Quinine. We would advise all
who are afflicted with this disease to
give them A FAIR TRIAL.
For all Bilious arrangements, and as
a simple purgative, they are unequaled.

On the approach Of either preach

them, at least, always full of deep
interest. But | AIN depressing :
The object of this communication,
is to call the attention Of our peo-
pie to the good work nauguratcd
by the good people of Chickasaw-
Ga. We allude to the
sABBATH SCHOOL,
which we had the pleasure OF at
tending. BY we, mean trio OF
candidates, who casually, like my
self, happened to drop in at meet
ing time on last Sunday.
The enrolled members number
l07, with an average attendance Of
about sixty. The exercises, con-
sisting in reading, recitation and
singing, are conducted by Profos-
sor Holt, superintendent; assisted
by DR.. Vance, Assistant Superln-
tcndant, and Mr.. Carney, SecrcIa
ry. The mem bers are divided into
seven classes, who are under the
immcIlato supervision Of able aud
competent teachers, and under
whQse instruction, rapid progress
is be ing made. Seldom
bAyc wc eyer listened 10 more en-,
chanting melody, than that which
charactcnzcs tho closing exercises
by thc caurc school.
This il Il move in the right di
ircc.ion, and Chickasawba Is enti
tied 10 the palm Of having the best
Sunday School IN the county, il
not in the state, and by hen
action show an appreciation o.
objects higher moro noble anC
lasting, than The mere clothing o
The body, and the accumulation o
money-the Improvement OF The
morals OF our youths. To tho la
dies, who are SO nobly cxertins
themselves in the good work, W,
would extend a kind word Of en-
couragemcnt. May peace, virtue
prosperity and happiness be then
portion.
The crops, throughout the sec

very promising, and as the seaso'
is far advanced, we may safely pre-
