Harpers' Magazine for July finds q novel
field for the portrayal Of character and the des-
cription Of scenery in the lowlands Of Virginia,
the old aristocratic "tidewat region, rich
in historic associations, and exceedingly plctur-
esque in it's memorial relics OF the old times.
The opening article OF the number devoted to
this subject and entitled " Some Landmarks in
Old Virginia" is contributed by Allen c. Red
wood, who uses his pencil as effectively as his
pen.
or especially humorous and pathetic interest
is Mr. Riding's paper about Hospital Life in
New York, with sixteen bright illustrations BY
Reinhart, Abbey and Rogers, effectively repre-
senting every phase Of hospital life, arom the
coming OF the ambulsnce to the period Of con-
valescence.

teristically illustrated papers on "Oldtime
Militia Musters," full OF the racy humor be-
longing to the ancient general training day,
the scene being laid in Virginia.
In bis charming story, Owlet,' John Esten
Cooke also takes us to Virginia. and the interest
OF his romance is heightened by Mr.. Pyle's
beautiful Illustrations.
The engravings illustrating the paper on Van
Dyck-another OF the series OF Old Flemish
Masters--are In every way worthy OF the sub
ject.
Among the characteristic domestic sketches
presented in this number, Daddy WILL" by
Charles D. Desler, stands out in bold, strong
lines--a familiar but striking picture OF the
trusted and faithful servant, so we'll remember
pressive is the scene between Daddy Will and
little Kate, which the artist has selected as a
subject for illustration.
Thse are two illustrated papers or foreign
subjects. A. II. Guernsey contributes one on
the peculiar features Of the worship of .ugger-
naRt in Orissa. The other, entitled IL First
Week in England introduces us to the quaint
old houses and rows of Chester to Ludlow
Castle. where Milton wrote his Comus.' and
to the fine old cathedral at Hereford.

on the left side; sometimes the pain is
felt under the shoulder blade, and it
frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm, The
stomach is affected with loss OF appe-
tite and sickness; the bowels in gen

pain, accompanied with 4 dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally a considerable loss Of mem
ory, accompanied with a painful SEN
sa,ion Of having left undone some
thing which ought TO have been done.
A slight, cry 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 4 prickly sensa-
ton OF the skin; his spirits are low;
and although he is satisfied that exer-
