FAYETTE COUNTY, Tenn, Aug. IS,
Mn. EDITOR IN CHIEF:-John Anderson
OF Whiteville, requested me to send you the
enclosed doggerel prophecy Of Mother Ship
ton" suppose you and he think it ought
to be published as a strange piece of divi-
nation, though / have seen its authenticity
questioned I thought I had two copies,
but I find only this, and it may be lost to
the world il not reproduced, perhaps no
great loss. Her last utterance don't excite
my apprehensions, If all the rest is true.
OF this ''knoweth no man." But here it Is:
The following, which Is known as "AIoth-
er SYMPTOMS Prophecy" was first published
in 1888, and republished in 1911. 1t Will
be noticed that all the events predicted in it,
except the last-which h still in the future
have already come to pass:
Carriages without horses shall 90,
And accidents fill the world with woe.
Around the world thoughts shall fly
In the twinkling of an eye.
Waters shall vet more wonders do;
Now strange, vet shall be true.
The world upside down shall be,
And gold be found at root of tree.
Through hills men shall ride,
And no horse or ass at his side.
Under water men shall walk,
Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk.
In the air men shall be seen,
In white, and black, in green.
Iron in the water shall float,
As easy as a wooden boat.
Gold shall be found and shown,
In a land that Is not now known.
Fire and water shall wonders do;
England shall at last admit a jew.
The world to an end shall come
In eighteen hundred and eighty-one.
l like your views on national finance bet
ter than any paper l read. Keep that ball
in motion. Something must be done to re-
lieve the country, and that speedily, or we
are ruined. You made host of friends
about Whiteville. Come again. Meet Ills
at Newcastle the Sd Sunday in September.
1t is a treat to get the BULLETIN.
Yours truly,

DIED


Monday. Aug. 20 in Bolivar, EDITH ESrFIIA,
drughter Of Jacob and Helen Fulmcr in the second
year OF her age.
Congestion Of the bowels was the disease that
blighted this little opening, budding life Her
mother died when she was but a few weeks old, and
though bercft Of 4 mothers loving concern Vet she
happily receiving the tender care Of an affection
ate farther and other near relatives. Who knows
but that the spirit Of that saintcd mother
iously watching and waiting to the spirit OF
her infant darling up to those mansions Of light?
Human duh to hear the rejoicing, and
human eyes too dim 10 behold the rapturous greet
ing given 4 cherub child by a redeemed mother.
This tiny flower is but lily transplantcd to grow
and bloom on the banks of the River of Life. No
chilling earth-winds can withcr its freshness no
sin-freightcd vaPnrs poison its cup Of Astounding
purity. The surviving parent has two angel
watchers to guard his way through life. What
blessed companionsh1p! All unseen as ministering
spirits they commissioned to guide his feet in
the way that leadcth to the land Of perfect peace.
May he live to meet his loved ones in the skies.
In Sterling, Colorado on Il e 12td of August, 1877,
JAMES r. PEEwITT, late Mail Agent on the Memphis
ana Iaduc'h railroad, and son Of DIR. y. H. PTewtt
OF Grand Junction, Tenn, aged twcnt ythree years,
one month and two days.
This worthy and excellent young man went to
Colorado in May to seek benefit and relief from
consumption's wasting touch. The pure ali Of that
to his enfeebled frame. lie continued to weaken,
and finally death set its seal Of silence upon his
young life. He was twenty-thrce years of age, and
before disease Frustrated him he WAS actively en-
poyed in the responsible position Of postal route
agent on the Memphis K Paducah railroad. This
was a quiet, unobtrUsive and most cStimable young
gentleman. He was beloved by large circle Of at
tached friends, who sadly mourn his dccease. His
worth in the social circle not less conspicuous
than his strict integrity business man. As a
friend his attachments many and strong, rs a
government official he NEST faithful, and rs a
he dutifuI, loving and true. Stricken in the
early flush of manhood, when the future was beam
ing with freshness and beauty his loss will make
sad vacuum in his circle of loved ones. Death, how
respects no age condition ponp of circumstances
That grim archer has full qUivr T, and his arrows
fl by day and by night. He bushes into stiffness
the tongue of pratling infancy, he cuts down you
manhood in its primo, and bids ripened old age pay
tribute to the truth that aII flesh is the grass
that withcrcth." We tender To the respected
family of the lamcntcd deceased the comforting
solutions of the Gospel, hoping that eternity may
grant unto them the blessed realization Of uI-
broken homc-circIc around the Fathers throne.

Symptoms Of a Diseased Liver

Symptoms Of a Diseased Liver.
DAN in the right side, under the edge
/ i of the ribs, increases on pressure !:
sometimes the pain is in the left side; The
patient is rarely able to lie on the !efi
side; sometimes the pain is felt under
the shoulder-blade, and it frequently eX-
tends to the top of the shoulder, and i
sometimes mistaken for 4 rheumatism in
the arm. The stomach Is affected with
loss ofappetiteand sickness; the bowels
III general are Costive, sometimes alterna-
tive with lax g.; 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 wherefewo fthem existed,
yet examination ofthe body, after death,
has shown the LIVER to have been eX-
tensiyely deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
DR.. G. McLANE'S LIVER PILLS, IN
CASES OF AGUE AND FEVER, when taken

most happy results. No better Cathartic

who are afflicted with this disease to
give them A FAIR TRIAL.
For all Bilious arrangements, and as
simple purgative, they are uneQualed.
