in Boston last Saturday Eight, 10 which la said
that had General Butler died in July ME re-
publican party would have been beaten. We

done its duty In regard to Southern AFFAIR."; but
there is enc idea predominant, more important
10 the estimation of republicans than the hn
apcial question even, and that i5, whether ths
million of men, enfranohised American cl2aDs,
arc to be cXtinguished as political power.
Now, for two years the republican barty OF
Massachusetts, has been very silent upon that
subj eet or have not given an unqualified appro'
val of it. | say to ell my political friends who
have hesitated upon that point that the time
is near, if it has not already arrived, when
there will bo no future for the republican party
unless it develops itself to the maintenance OF
tho rights 1 900 600 human beings. l say to
all that if another convention OF the Massaehu'

ton is silent upon this question Of human rights
a more formidable foe will attack that party
than General Butler.

MEDICINAL.
Liver

This important organ weighs but about
three pounds, and all the blood in living
person (sbout three gsllons) passes through
it at least once every half hour, to have the
bile and other impurities strained or filtered
from it. Bile is the natural purgaLive of the
bowels, and if the Liver becomes torpid it is
not separated from the blood, but carried
through the veins to all parts Of the system,
and in trying to escape through the pores of
the skin, causes it to turn yellow or q dirty
brown color. The stomach becomes diseased
and Dyspepsia. Indigestion, Constipation,
Headache. Bilieueness, Jsundice Chills,
Malarisl Fevers, Piles, Sick and Sour Stom.
sch, and general debility follow. MER.
RELLS HEPATINE. the great vegetable
discovery for torpidity, causes the Liver to
throw off from one to two ounces OF bile each
time the blood passes through it. as long as
there is an excess Of bile; and the effect Of
even few doses upon yellow complexion
or brown, dirty locking skin, will aston
ish all who try it-they being the first 81 mp.
toms to disappear. The cure of sill bilious
diseases and Liver complaint is made Ger.
tain by taking Hepatile in accordance With

from the Liver can EXIT if fair trial is
given. Take no pills when you can get
