In answer to your letter of the 18th in

as Lacupia, has performed some remarka-
BILE cures in my hands. One, "a case of
Salt Rheum, or letter, is worthy of no
ticing. The patient, Il young man 20
years of age, had had letter for eight
years. During all this time he was con
stantly annoyed by it. He called on me.

remedies which are generally prescribed.

writes

/ was very much pleased with the rapid
improvement made in the treatment of
the boy, J. H., of whose case wrote to
you some time back. am now still more
pleased to state that the boy is entirely
we'll. The sore on his spine is healing, :,
his lips are no longer puffy and swollen,
and his appetite was never better.
This case DR.. Potter had almost given
up as beyond recovery. We had sent him
three bottles of Lacupia to try. Before
the case came under his treatment there
mad been number of physicians trying
their skill, but all without effect, as he
continued to grow worse instead of bet
ter. The boy was the son of a wealthy
merchant of Baltimore. He had fallen
through hatchway some twenty feet.
and injured his spine A short time after
this occurred, an opening formed in the
back, through which the little finger conId
be passed, and the tenth dorseI yertehra
could be distinctly felt. From this onen-
ing large quantities of matter was dis
charged. The boy being of scrofulous
disposition, he was advised by different
physicians to use different remedies for
serOfula, but the sore continued open and
would not heal. He used eight bottles OF
Lacupia besides the three we sent Dr.
Potter.

DR.. John S. Dane, N. Y, writes

am not favorite of patent medicines,
but 1 must frankly acknowledgement there
is more virtue in your Lacupia than any
remedy or combination ofremedies Ihave
yet used. have had under treatment a
patient, a lady, not married, aged 81
years. She was suffering for ten years
with Hydrasthrosts, or White Swelling of
the right leg. Before the case had come
under my notice she had tried the treat
ment of a number rofprominent physicians
without avail. After-I. had been treating
her for six months, she insisted on try
ing your Lacupia, which was highly re-
commended to her by friend. 1 told her
she might use it, ifshe wished, although
Iewould not recommend it. She bought
three bottles. After using the first bottle
she said the leg felt better, and before the
second was all used the swelling had been
considerably reduced, and now, after us
ing twelve bottles, her leg is well, and
she requests me to give you her heartfelt
thanks, and report her case for the benefit
of others suffering as she was. L can re
commend your remedy in cases of thi:
kind. have not yet tried itin any Other
blood diseases, and can therefore not say
what it will do.

SYMPTOMS of a Diseased Liver.

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAIN in the right side, under the edge
/ 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.
quently 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 hav-
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 deranged.

OLD BLUE LAWS IN VIRGINIA..
The Vigorous Regulations of the Coll
Ony Two Hundred Years Ago.
Correspondence or Graphic.

Correspondence Of n. Y. Graphic.
Much has been written about the ''Blue
Laws of Connecticut, but few people
know that the early laws of the Virginia
colony were just as 'sblue'' and just as
Puritanical. The ''Blue Laws of Con-
necticut, most often quoted, are those pro-
hibiting kissing, running OF walking on
the Sabbath, prohibiting the reading of
the common prayer-book, or the keeping
of saints days, and the couFting Of maid
ems without the consent of their parents.
1 believe it has become settled opinion
that these claws, p so long discussed, were
never actually upon the statue books, but
are traditional sarcasm upon the strin-
gency of the New England statutes, par
ticularly in regard to religious obserV-
anees, which have been told so often as a
| joke that they have been licensed as facts.
But in an old Virginia law book which
has come into my possession, printed in
the early part of the eighteenth century.
before the birth of Washington, l find
several statutes passed by the General As
sembly of Virginia in the year 1862. They
are said to have been vigorously enforced
Immediately after their enactment, but a
