LIVER PILLS,

Hepatitis or Liver Complaint,
DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HEADACHE,

Symptoms Of Diseased Liver.
DAIN in the right side, under the
i 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 a rheumatism in the arm.
The stomach is affected with loss of
appetite and sickness; the bowels in
general are costiye, sometimes alter.
native with lax; the head is troubled
with pam, accompanied with a dull,
heavy sensation in the back part.
There is generally aconsiderable loss
ofmemory, accompanied with pain
full sensation Of having left undone
something which ought to have beep
done. a slight, dry cough is some.
times an attendant. ! The patient
complains of WEAKNESS and debility;
he is easily startled, his feet are cold
or burning, and he complains of
prickly sensation of the skin; his
spirits are low; and although he is
satisfied that exercise would be bene
fetal TO him, yet he can scarcely
summon up forGtude 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.
AG UE AND FEVER.
DIR. &. MsLANE'S LIVER PILLS,
IN GASES OF ACUE AND FEVER, when

with this disease to give them A
FAIR TRIAL.

as simple purgative, they are un-
equaled.

accounts from the South show won

southerners just from home believe
Hayes has power to do more good tor
the South than Tilden could possibly
have-done had he been elected, and al
ready Hayes has more earnest friends
among tho Southern people than Tilden
had prior to the day of election. One

Professor Charles 81 age,of misplace |
as long ago as 1857. j Ills observ atioIls
were published, and, as he was man
OF large attainments,s his. experiments
1 attracted attention at home and abroad.
/ Other scientists became interested In
the same line of investigation, among
them the late Colonel Francis Pea
body, of Salem. The fact, therefore.
that sound could be conveyed electric

known for some time, and the nature
OF the experiments therewiti1wass shown
I on Monday evening in various ways,
notably by the transmission from Bos-

+ message, which announced itself, not by
the usual dots and lines of telegraphy,
bus by sounds of different lengths.
/ This was a very interesting expert
i ment.
But it remained for Professor Bell to
discover that articulate sounds can be

This he has done during his residence III
Salem. Professor Bell is a Scotchmar

Travellers who have visited Brazil
speak in glowing terms of the country.
Some who have sailed up the Amazon
declare that vessel can be loaded with
Brazil nuts at an expense of only few
cents per busheI. These constitute
valuable article of commerce. All the
tropical fruits are produced in Brazil
almost without cultivation. The soil
in many parts of the country will pro-
duce twenty successive crops of cotton,
tobacco, or sugar cane, without the ap-
plication of manure. No country in
the world approaches in the variety OF
its forest production. Professor Agas-
siz states that he saw III different
kinds Of valuable woods that were cut
from a piece of land not half mile
square. ley represented almost every
variety of color, and many OF them were
capable of receiving a high polish.
One tree furnishes wax that is used for
candies ; another a pitch that is used fer
food; and still another yields Juice
which is used in the place Of intoxieat-
ing liquor There is a single variety OF
palm from which the natives obtain food
drinking, bedding, eordage, fishing
tackle, medicine and the material they
manufacture into dwellings, weapons,
harpoens and musical instruments.
