Of the eme dimensions and character
that are already familiar to our
friends.
The Sun will continue to be the
strenuous advocate Of reform aud re-
trenchrnent, and of the substitution Of
craftsmanship, wisdom, and integrity
for hollow pTetence, imbeclllty, and
fraud in the administration of public
affairs. It will contend for the gov
eminent Of the people by the people
aud for the people, as opposed to gov
eminent by frauds in the hallot-bos
and in the counting of votes, enforced
by military violence. It will endea-
vor to supply the readers-a body now
not far from a million Of sonls-Witb
the most careful, and complete aud
trustworthy account of current events,
and will employ for this purpose
numerous and carefully selected staff
Of reporters and correspondents. Its
reports from Washington, especially,
will be full, accurate, and fearless;
and it will doubtless continue to
deserve and enjoy the hatred Of those
who thrive by plunde,ing the Treasury
or by usurping what the law does not
give them. while it will endeavor to merit
the confidence Of the public by defend
ing the rights of the people against the
encroachments of upjustified power.

and in this house." she made the heart
of every man who heard her stand still IN
his bosom; and when she parted from the
lover whom she never meant to see again
in this world, her agony was so great and
go real that few men could look upon its
exhibition. Hers was not, perhaps, the
mower of the imagination -that seizes upon
An ideal and enables the artist to rise out
cf this actual world and embody a crea.
ture of the poetic brain, like Lady Mac
6etb-but hers, beyond all doubt,
was the human woman's heart, that had
sounded every depth of passion and could
embrace all possible experience of woman
in that world of love which is so essen
tally her own. And while she was thus
human and passionate in fiber, che was
wierd and fascinating in her individuality.
All her ways were her own-and the eye
followed her with strange kind of delight
at absolute newness aud formidable SINGER
ity. She often failed to satisfy the in
tellect, with reference to classic forms of
ancient literature, or to set molds of mod
ern character. Her Meded for example,
was half providing maniac and half a
reckless slouch-with now and then
CLEAN of fateful fury, like fire that streams
through the suddenly opened mouth
of the volcano; and her Edith, and iSgbiL,
and Geraldine were erratic and bizarre fig
ures, only to be remembered for strong
and surprising points. But no spectator
OF her acting ever,-till her powers were
on the wane, missed the sense of an orig
inal. vigorous, brilliant and startling per-
sonality. She was an actress of the pas.
siOns-and OF the passions in their univer-
sal ebb and flow. This sort of nature,
unless it be curbed by prodigious moral
sense aud intellect, inevitably breaks all
the bounds of serene life. Matilda Her.
on's career has been full of trouble and
sorrow. 1t is easy to say that she brought
them upon herself; it might be wiser to
say that Heaven, which made her what she
was, ruled the event to its own ends; it
certainly is truthful to say that she
wrought the labor of her lite with pro-
found, earnest, passionate, and virtuous
sincerity; that she touched in thousands
OF hearts, the spring of gentle charity;
that she dealt blow which has staggered
alike the canting sensualist and the canting
Pharisee; and with all her faults and fail
ings, thai she leaves the memory, not
| alone of one of the greatest elemental
forces In the dramatic art, but of a large
hearted, tender, magnanimous woman.
Yesterday, in the Little Church, which has
become so justly dear to the dramatic pro.
fession, the burial service was said over
her remains; and from that place-with al
the honors that love and sorrow can offer
the ashes of this dead genius were taken t.

DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HEADACHE.
SYMPTOMS of a Diseased Liver.

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAN in the 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 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 ofappetite 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 considerable 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 fortltude
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.
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 Ouinine. We would advise all
who are afflicted with this disease to
give them A FAIR TRIAL.

Matilda Heron.


The death OF Matilda Heron, though
not deprivation to- the stage, is an event
that reminds us very seusibly of what the
stage once possessed, in her bright days,
and Of what it long since lost, in the sad
decadence of her mind. Twenty years
ago, when Matilda Heron came for ward in
the character of Camille, if she was not
great artist, she certainly was very re-
markabe example Of elemental power
She had widness of emotion, a force of
brain, a vitality in embodiment, and many
inde6nablc magnetic qualities, that so
combined to make her exceptional among
human creatures. Those who saw her
then saw a woman unusual for personal
charms-strong and fine in physique, with
dark hair, dark eyes. aud beautiful white
complexion-but more unusual for an
electrical sympathy Of temperament that
captiyated every heart. Miss Heron was
never more AT her best than in Camille
She appeared in other parts, but that was
the part she always acted and, Though it
is true that she may have somewhat re-
fined upon her method in after years, she
never acted it better than at first 1t
afforded the agonized and agonizing situa-
tion which alone could serve for the utter
ance OF her tempestuous nature, Once,
in later times, speaking to an author about
play that she wished to have written for
her, she was careful to state that the hero
inc must be lost woman" No doubt
she knew, as everybody knows, that a
woman lost is not particle more dra-
matte than woman found but
she loved the storm and revel-
ed in the reckless agony of a
nature that's at war with itself, More than
almost any other woman we can call to
mind upon the stage, Matilda Heron
knew what it is to love, and what it is to
suffer through the truth or through the
consequences OF that awful and tremen
dous passion. When, in the first act of
camille, she used TO rush forward and
sob out the exclamation, Respect me-
