DISEASED LIVER.

Duncan's Liver and Kidney Medicine

igin in a diseased state of the Kidneys
or Liver, such as sick headache, dyspep-
STA, swimming of the head, loss of appe-
tite, bad taste in mouth, heartburn, ten
derness or fullness over the region of
the stomach, cramp collie, costiveness,
palpitation of the heart, pain in the
back, sides and limbs, and all diseases
peculiar to females. We can say to our
friends that the above medicine is just
what it is represented to be, and is pro-
nounced by every one who has used it,
far superior to any Liver Medicine they
have ever used. We know that it gives
better satisfaction than any we ever
sold Knowing it to be purely vege-

We are astonished to hear that our
quondam friend and fellow delegate
TO the Jonesboro' Convention that
nominated Bob Taylor, Col. VIM.
Greene, of Hawkins county, has
come out as a Republican candidate
for the State Senate against Henry
Patton. We say we are astonished
because we know that Col. Greene
urged Patton by letter and in person
to make the race, and promised him
cordial support, and Bill Greene
is not the man we would have expec-
ted TO desert the ranks and go to the
enemy. But it appears that Petit
bone stopped over night with Greene
previous to the discussion at Sneed-
VILE and seduced him in to making
the race against Patton hoping there
by to weaken Bob Taylor. But the
people will Illustrate this trickery by
condemning the course of Greene in
the strongest manner at the ballot
box. His old friends and supporters
will indignantly repudiate his pre-
tensions and he will realize that his
last condition is infinitely his worst.
Since the above was written Col.
Greene sends circular for insertion
in the GA zETTE. 1t is printed in
another column.

while it is on the decrease slightly
in some of the cities. it is spre aiding
out into the towns, and is, on the
whole, on the increase. Rut we are
encouraged to believe that frost will
soon come to the relief of the sick
stricken places. The horrors of the
scourge are still siekeuing and dis
heartening, and its history. yet to be
