AserIoius Mistake.

In 1872 Congress passed law repeal
ing jurors test oaths; but. in the recent
revision OF the statutes the law got into
the Revised Statutes again. Last ses-
sion the House passed another repeating
act, and it has slumbered in the Senate
Committee of Revision Of the Laws Of
which Christiancy is Chairman. Itnow
appears that in the trial Of the election
cases in Louisiana the Judges have III
rected their Marshal to have that law in
mind in summoning jurors, and the re-
suit will be that iuries will be composed
entirely OF, negroes and carpet-baggers,
as but few Of the citizens can take the
test.oath. There is, therefore, great
desire on the part Of the Senators from
that section to have the House Bill acted
on, and Eustis, on the l7th inst, urged
Christiancy to report it at an early day.

Symptoms Of a Diseased Liver.

Symptoms Of a Diseased Liver.
pAIN 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
left side; sometimes the pain is felt
under the shoulder blade, and it fire.
quentlyf extends to the top Of the shoul-
der, and is sometimes mistaken for
rheumatism in the arm. The stomach
is affected with loss Of appetite and
sickness; the bowels in general are
costive, sometimes alternative with lax;
the head is troubled with pain, accom-
panied with a dull, heavy sensation in
the back part. There is generally a
considerable loss of memory, accom-
panied with a painful sensation of hay
ing left undone something which ought
to have been done. A slight, dry cough
is sometimes 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 beneficial to him,
yet he can scarcely summon up forti-
tude enough to try it. In fact he dis
trusts every remedy. Several of the
above symptoms attend the disease, but
cases have occurred where few of them
existed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively derangod.

LAST NIGHT OF LIFE.
For. Jack KehOe, the MOlIie King
Affecting Scenes Between the
Doomed Man and His Wife.

Doomed Man and His Wife.
PoTTsvfLLE, PENN, December IL
The Board of Pardons having to-day re,
fused to reopen the case of jack Kehoe,
his counsel to night paid final visit to
his cell, and received his thanks for the
earnest manner in which they had de
Tended him He appeared to be in a
cheerful mood, and feeliugly protested
his innocence of the crime of which he
was convicted. Realizing that he was
to die tomorrow, he said he was as
guiltless Of the Dangdon murder as a
new born babe. He also stated that the
only murder OF which he had criminal
knowledge before its commission was
the assassination of Gomar James, in
August, 1875
The news Of the action Of the Board
Of Pardons sealing his fate was commu-
nicated this afternoon to Kehoe by his
faithful wife, to whose indetatigable eff
forts he is largely indebted for the long
time intervening between his sentence
and execution. He received the dread
ful intelligence without betraying much
emotion, having been led to believe ny
the published views Of the majority Of
the Board of Pardons that his case was
hopeless
This interview between Kehoe and his
wife was very affecting, as was visit
paid him in the morning by Mrs Kehoe
and his children She and her offspring
drove to the prison in a closed cab, and
remained with the doomed man con-
siderable time As she was leaving her
husband, they locked in each others
arms, and the children sobbed aloud -
Kehoe's father, who is much broken
down in health, also called on the culprit
during the day, and bid him final good
by.
Kehoe will be hanged on the same gal
lows on which Dennis Donnolly was ex-
ecuted in May and six Mollies in June,
1877 There is lively application for
cards of admission, but comparatively
small number of people will be admitted
Among those who will not witness the
execution is Pottsville reporter, who
has shown no quarter to the Mollie Ke-
hoe, his father and his wife having re.
quested that he be not permitted to wit
ness the hanging scene.

Remedy for Hard Times.

Stop spending so much on fine clothes,
rich food and style. Buy good, healthy
food; cheaper and better clothing get
more real and substantial things of life
every way, and especially stop the fool
ish habit of running after expensive
quack doctors or using so much of the
vile humbug medicine that does you only
harm, and makes the proprietors rich,
but put your trust in the greatest of all
simple, pure remedies. Hop Bitters, that
cures always at trifling cost, and you
will see better times and good health
Try it once. Read of it in smother COL

I@Word has been passed along the
Republican fine that the doings of certain
Republican leaders in Louisiana, South
Carolina and Florida must not be investi-
gated. There is a fearful looking-for Of
copies, in the hands either of General
Butler or of the Democrats, of Repub-
lican ciphers which it bad been hoped
that the Western postmaster had effec
tually suppressed. And after this word
has been passed goes another to the effect
that for 1880 every one of the Hayes
clique who had to do with the Returning
Board conspiracy must be thrown over.

Petersburg all this time, are men of cul-
ture and refinement, aud have lived in
good style, paying all their expenses with
punctualily and having plenty of money.
In their rooms q number of letters

Cut 'Em Down.

The Senate on the 18th inst, passed
the Consular and Diplomatic Appropria-
ton Bill, adding to it $50, 100 more than
the House appropriated. This was
caused by the Senate leaving the salaries
q all first class missions abroad as they
now are. The House reduced missions
paying $17,500 to S15 600; $4,000
ones to $4,000, and s10, 900 places to
$4,000. 1t is probable the Senate's &C,
tion may make dead lock between the
two Houses on this bill, as the House is
iaslined to insist upon its reductions.
