LIVER PILLS,
FOR THE CURE OF
Hepatitis or Liver Complaint,
DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HEADACHE.
Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAIN in the right side, under theedge-
of the ribs, increases on pressure;
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-blade, and it frequently ex-
tends to the top of the shoulder, and is
sometimes mistaken for rheumatism IN
the arm. The stomach is affected with
loss appetite 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 to have been done. A Slight, dry
cough is sometimes an attendant. The
patient complains of WEAKNESS 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 wherefew ofthem existed,
vet examination ofthe body, after death,
has shown the LIVER to have been ex-
tensively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
DR.. c. McLANE's LIVER PILLS, IN
CASES OF AGUE 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 al:
who are afflicted with this disease to
give them FAIR TRIAL.
For all Bilious arrangements, and as
a simple purgative, they are unequaled.

Mock Congress.


Last Saturday night no new bills
were brought in and the committees
failing to report upon any bills re-
ferred, the House passed to the
special order, the Mormon Bill. It
was put upon its passage, aad Hon.
Mr.. Alternately dem. 10. took the
floor and advocated the bill in a
lengthy and exhaustive speech.
Mr.. Alternately dem. n. Y. chair
mau of the Judiciary, which report
ed adversely to the bill, opposed
it in a speech of fifteen minutes.
Messrs. Taliaferro, Roberts, Lester
(Republicans) advocated the bill,
and Messrs. Jones, (Dem. Tex. }
Grant dem. Tex. and Rhubarb
(Rep. n. Y opposed it, the latter

Der who was paired of with his
washwoman (she failed to bring his
shirt in. We did not know that
the Mormans had as many virtues
as they have until we heard the able
arguments Of the gentlemen who
favored the bill, and we would have
been converted to vote for it if we
had been a single man and hadn't
been paired off and pledged to vote
against it. The whole evening was
consumed in it's discussion, and
the bill finally failed. It was no
party measure. A democrat intro
duced it and republicans and demo
Gratis supported and opposed it. 1t
will be observed that nearly all the
married men voted against it and
the single men for it. Mr.. Pearcy
explained his vote by saying that he
was opposed to it but voted for it to
show that he was not afraid.

A Gentle clothing merchant in
Pulaski the other day got a Gus
toner in tow and couldn't please
him with any of his fashionable
goods. At length the countryman
espied an old-style, half-faded coat
that fit his eye because it was
striped, and nothing would do but
he must have it. He tried it on and
found a perfect fit. The sleeves
were cut a little low-necked and dis
played about eight inches of his al
abaster wrist-the tail fully COW
cred his breeches-strap behind and
met the patch on the seat of his
breeches on halfway grounds-it
lacked only about nine inches of
buttoning, but it's not the fashion
to button, he learned. He was told
this class of coats we're made for a
double purpose, to cover the back
and to hold the shoulders braced
baek-and the fellow tried it and
liked it the better because he could
not get his hands in his breeches-
pocket. He took it, and after all
the clerks had helped him of with
it, he payed for it. and started 10
put it on again, but the merchant
gave Kim a quarter if he wouldn't
wear it until he got out of town
and so he left, smiling. Poor fel-
lowl And that merchant went to
church Sunday and the lightning
hasn't hit him yet.

FREE SCHOOLS.

Mr.. Yaneey, the active and eff
Gent county Superintendent of pub
lie schools. is to speak at this place
Feb. oath. Hiss object to persuade
the people to vote for the additional
tax for schools. It is said that
every man who tried to get money
out of the Germans found that all
his previous experiences in hard
ness were soft in comparison. We
apprehend it will be as difficult
task to get cash from the Tennes-
scans. At the same time we think
the system of free schools had bet
ter be kept up on good scale if it
is kept up at all.
HOME MANUFACTURES.
Col. Higdon has put up a trough
of size so enormous and shape so
peculiar, that a visitor from the
East might infer it was intended to
scald elephants. 1t is to steam
wood for plowhandles, shingles, &C.,
into which business he has gone
with a zeal that promises to increase
his annual taxation considerably.
PREACHING.
In spite of the bad weather there
were good congregations to hear
Mr.. Mooney, who is said to have
excelled himself. He is so popular
with the Presbyterians that it is
fortunate their own preacher is not
of jealous disposition.
''IF a BODY MEET A BODY"
Mr.. Sublett, of Marshall county,
paid a brief visit to town day or
two ago. He left us last Christmas,
after a two years residence, during
the whole of which time he was
5usily engaged in fixing up his
knowledge box in preparation for
the practice of scientific slaughter.
His visit had probably a reference
to the loss of an important organ he
sustained last year, and has not yet
recovered, although he has made a
formal demand on the thief as thus,

SCRAPS.
The general excitement through
this community during the past
week has been great. Major Will
hanson, of Columbia, was here on
legal business last Tuesday. Mr..
George Taylor, of Culleoka, who
has built up as large a practice and
has been as successful as any lawyer
who began with him, was here on
another day. I. L. n.
The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1876-02-24
Mr.. Mart. Fry.

On Tuesday the report was cir
culated that the creditors of Mr..
Mart. Fry were suing him, and levy
ing on his property. There was a
general stampede, and before night
there were $4,000 against him on
the books. When Mr.. F. saw how
the tide was going, he sent word to
his creditors as widely as he could
to come in and save themselves.
AS one after another arrived he told
them of property on which as yet
no levy had been made, and after he
had gone to bed arose to tell
one gentleman of some few rem
nants not as yet named. If any
thing could have increased the con-
fidence in his integrity, which he
has always inspired, and deepenod
the sympathy felt for him, his con-
duct under circumstances where so
many fail, would have been suffi-
cient.
1t is not to publish the misfor-
tunes of good man that we allude
to this matter, but to lay a plain
point before the many persons who
directly or indirectly are interested
in this failure. Mr.. Fry's indebted
ness is possibly-we speak from re-
port-$35,00O. He has 900 acres
of land worth at least the whole
debt, and perhaps $4,000 in per
scnal property. If his creditors
forbear with him and with each
other, and give him two or three
years to wind up, he viii probably
be able to pay them in full and have
a home left for himself. To sell
now is to ruin him and pay perhaps
80 cents in the dollar. To throw
into ehancery, with its long delays,
means loss to all but the lawyers.
There ought to be a general meet
ing of the creditors, to devise some
means for doing justice and mercy
in the case. At such meeting let
men of known integrity and tried
business ability, like W. R. Dicker-
son, Carter Witt, VIM. Carter and
Mr.. Farmer, or some others like
them, in connection with the best
legal talent, be appointed to conduct
the matter and it viii be gain al
around. A CREDITOR.
