Of our health. | have observed in the dis
sectng- room, and also in making l6st-n,or-
tenn examination of the bodies of those who
have died of different diseases, that in Il large
proportion OF cases, the liver has given evil
dence of having at sonic time been diseased.
Liver affections are equally prevalent in
beasts. Every butcher knows that the
livers ofcattle, sheep, and swine, are ten
times as frequently diseased as any other
organ. a healthy liver each day secrctes
about two and halt pounds of bile. When
it becomes torpid, congested, or if, from any
cause, it be disabled in the performances of
its duties, it is evident that the elements of
the bile must remain in the blood, thus irri-
tating, poisoning, and perverting, every vi
tai process. Nature attempts to rid the sys-
TEN of these noxious materials by means of
other organs, as the kidpeys, lungs, skin,
etc, which becomes overtaXed in perform
ing their additional labor, and are unable
to withstand the pressure. e.
center Of all vitality, becomes overstinula-

ly perform its functions. Hence there is dull
ness, headache, impairment of the memory ,
dizziness, gloomy torebodingS, and irrtabil-
| ity of temper. When the blood is diseased,
the skin manifests dscolored spots, pimples,
blOtches, boils, carbuncles, and scrOfulOus
| tumors. The stomach and bowels, sooner
or later, becomes affected, and constipation,
piles, dropsy, dyspepsia, or diarrh@a, is the
inevitable result.
