symptoms Of a Diseased Liver,
DAIN in the right side, under the
edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; 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 extends to the top of
the shoulder, and is sometimes mis-
taken for 4 rheumatism in the arm,
The stomach is affected with loss Of
appetite and sickness; the bowels in
general arc costive, sometimes alter
rative with lax; the head is troubled
with pain, accompanied with dull,
heavy sensation in the back part.
There is generally aconsiderable loss
ofmcmory, accompanied withapain-
ful sensation of having left undone
something which ought to have been
done. A slight, dry cough is some
times an attendant. The patient
complains ofweariness 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 benc-
fetal to him, yet he can scarcely
summon up fortitudc 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-
isted, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged,

Instructions to U. 8. MarshalS,
By American Press Association to the STAR.
WASHINGTON, August 1S.-The Attor.
ney General is preparing and will In a
few days issue specific instructions to
United States Marshals in every State
in the Union, instructing them as to
their duty and rights under the election
laws. The object OF the Administrator,
as stated by the Attorney General, is to
secure to every citizen in Massachu-
setts as well as in South Carolina every
right guaranteed to him by the Cunsti-
tuition and the laws.
Expecting News from Crook.
TIE last heard from Crook was a re.
port dated the 11ih, in which Crook said
he was moving forward in the direction
of the Indians and hoped, unless they
scattered, to strike them within four or
five days. 1t is the opinion of officials
at the War Office that bate has been
fought, and they are sire Dgthened in
this belief by the frequent rumors to that
effect brought in by friendly Indians. 1t
is believed that another report from
Crook will reach General Sheridan's
headquarters to-day.

What Will He Do!

1t being understood that Mayor John.
ston has decided that he will not be q
candidate for the nomination Of Con
gressman from the First District, his OF
fee this morning was thronged Will
prominent citizens friendly to his can
didacy, all of whomplea1ed with him moi
to be TOO hasty in his conclusions, but
to make the race.
We insist on His Honor coming to some
definite conclusion at an early date by
giving us one OF his usual diplomatic
documents of declination-or what is
the political custom, letter OF accept
anoe a la Hayes or Tilden.
One of the reasons of the Mayors dec.
lination to run for Congress is the prob
ability of the Supreme Courts decision
being to restore the control Of the police
force to His Honor instead of the pres
ent Police Commission. The arduous
duties imposed upon him in this event
would exclude him from all participation
In politics.

Shelter for the Head.

Many severe headache, and rost.
less night after an exhausting days
work in the harvest field, might be pre-
vented by the use of some simple pre-
cautions. The sun beats down upon the
head and neck with great force, when
the thermometer marks 80 degrees and
over in the shade, and the scerching
effect of heat OF 120 degrees in the di-
rect sunshine, is both uncomfortable
and dangerous to the health. The head
should be protected in such cases by
wearing straw hat, or one of some
open material, with a broad brim, and
by placing a leaf of cabbage or lettuce,
or wetted cambria handkerchief in the
crown Of 1t.
The very sensitive back of the head
and neck, is best protected by means of
white handkerchief fastened by one
border to the hat-band, and the rest
made to hang down loosely over the neck
and shoulders. The neck is thus shaded
from the SUMS rays, and the loosely
Tapping handkerchief causes a constant
current Of air to pass around and cool
the neck and head. We have found this
to be q most comfortable thing to wear,
and its value as protector to the base
OF the brain and the spinal marrow is so
well known in hot countries, that the
use Of similar protection ls made impera.
