The PhysioIogy of the Liver.

The liver is the largest secreting organ in
the human body, and the bile which it Sc
cretes is more liable to vitiation and misdi-
rection from its proper channels than any
other of the animal fluids. Luckily for the
bilious, however, there is an unfailing source
of relief from liver complaint, namely, Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, medicine which
for over a quarter Of century has been

bowel complaints, rheumatic and kidney
affections, and disorders involving loss Of ner-
vous yigOr. 1t is, moreover, q preventive OF
malarial disease, and affords protection to
thousands of persons residing in districts OF
country where that dire scourge is prevalent.
As remedy adapted to the medicinal re-
quirements of families, it is supremely desira
Bile, and as a means of tortiiying debilitated
system, it is thoroughly to be depended upon.

NOT EXACTLY THAT.

Memphis thinks of surrendering her
charter to get rid Of her debt-LColumbia
journal.
This is not correct statement,
though it has foundation in the fact
that Memphis is overburdened with
debt, and at the mercy of creditors,
who are ready to press our people to
the wall in a time Of great distress
The only reason presumably thatnum-
erous mandamuses have been served
upon the city authorities for three
months spastwas the presence of theyel-
low fever and the absence of a quorum
of the general council. Only day or
two ago one of the creditors of the
city applied to the judge of the Circuit
Court for a premptory mandamus to
enforce the levy of a special tax
for a large amount. We may as
well expect no mercy at the hands
of any of our creditors. Many
of the people, therefore, look to the
legislature for temporary relief. 1t is
thought by many citizens, including
good lawyers, that this can be accom-
plished by repeating the charter OF
modifying it so as to give us a breath
ing spell and time to do something to-
ward sewering and paving the city
The idea is not to repudiate any JUS
debt, but possibly to secure a compro
mise that would afford relief. This
matter will be discussed fully between
now and the meeting of the legislature
and we doubt not the members cleo
from this county will endeavor to as
certain the popular will, frame int
legal shape and present it upon tn,
organization of the general assembly

Last Weeks Elections.

The result of the elections held last
week was quite as favorable to the Re-
publicans as could expected, and may
be summed up as follows:
In Iowa the Republican majority
on the State ticket is about $4,000; Of
the nine Congressman elected, seven
are Republicans, the candidates of the
Democratic, Greenback fusion-W ca
yer in the Sixth and Gillette 10 the
Seventh District-being elected.
Ir Indiana the Democratic majority
is about 10000. OF the thirteen Con-
gressmen, six are Republicans, six
Democrats and one Greenback- Demo-
cratic fusionist. The Republicans
have lost the legislature.
In Ohio the Republican majority
is about S,OO0-a Republican gain
of 10000 over last year. Of the
twenty Congressman, nine are Repub-
lcan and eleven Democrats. The
Democratic Legislature last Winter
gerrymandered the Congressional dis
tricts of the State in such manper as
to carry at least fifteen of them. 1t is
another instance of 1.-The engineer be-
ing hoist by his own petard.'
In West Virginia, the Democratic
majorities of former years have been
materially reduced. the Republicans
gaining largely. The Democrats, new
ertheless, have elected the three Con-
gre5smen.
In none of these States have the So
called "Natioual Greenbackers," oper-
ating alone, elected single candidate,
and in only three instances (two Con-
gressmen in Iowa and one in Indiana
have the candidates of fusion Of the
Greenbackers and the Democrats been
successful, and then only "by the skin
of their teeth"
