Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAIN in the right side, under the edge
1 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 FREE
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 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, ne 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.
AGUE AND FEVER.
DIR. C. McLANE's LIVER PILLS, IN
CASES OF AGUE AND FEVER, when taken
with Quinine, are productive of the
most happy results. No better cathartic
can be used, preparatory to, or after
taking Quinine. We would advise all
who are afflicted with this disease to
give them FAIR TRIAL.
For all bilious arrangements, and as
a simple purgative, they are unequaled.
BEWARE or INVITATIONS.
The genuine are never sugar coated.
Every box has a red wax seal on the lid,
with the impression Dr.. MeLANE's Liver
PILLS.
The genuine McLANE's LIVER Pills bear

Lake M~in-ns.ha-h a.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial thus describes it:
THE pretty little Lake M~in-ne-ha-ha,
that lies like a drop of the translucent
azure of the sky in a green grass-rim-
med cup, just out of Cheyenne, is a IA
vorite resort. 1t is an artificial reser-
voir lake, formed by the euphonious
Crow creek from the Black Hills. 1t
has a small fleet of row and sail boats
anchored at its tiny piers, and a wide
drive extends entirely around its messy
bank. 1t has no surrounding rocks or
trees to fret its silvery surface with
their shadows. 1t lies open and fair to
the skies, and spreads a fringe of grass
out oil its shallow edge. 1t has nothing
to do but mirror the heavens. If they
are blue, it wears its palest azure, and
the soft clouds so far, so far above,
seem to come down and nestle in its
turquois bosom. and know not which is
home. If the sky be pink, the water
bushes to the self-same hue. If GRIM
son, it rolls an angry pool of blood. If
stormy, it hoods itself in black, and
from its inky surface l~ightnings fash,
and thunders seem to roll up from its
heaving breast to meet the sighings of
the storm lend in the murky upper air. -

DENVER, Aug. Is.
The G~reenback State convention has
adopted a platform a~rraigning the De-
mocrats for advocacy and support Of
African slavery; teaching ''the wild
and cruel fantasy that man could hold
property in man." and assail the Re-
publican party for legislation in the
interest of the money power. 1t de-
mands the issue by Government Of alb
solute paper money as a full legal tender
for all debts, public and private, in
sufficient volume for the entire needs
Of trade and in payment of the whole
of the Understanding debt, and paid
directly to the people without the in
PREVENTION Of banks or agents; the i'm
mediate repeal Of the resumption act,
and all laws authorizing national bank;
enactment by Congress prohibiting
any further issue of bonds, also favors
constitutional amendment making such
issue impossible, and favors an income
tax on all incomes above one thousand
dollars.
The nominations were: r. G.. Buck
ingham, Governor; P. A. Simmons,
Lieut.. Governor; ]. E. washburn, Sec
Rotary; W. S. Arnett, Treasurer; G..
King, Auditor; Alpheus Wright, At
torney General; A. j. Chittenden, Supt.
Of Public instruction; II. G. Childs,
for Congress. Delegates were present
from fourteen counties. Mr.. Chitten-
den, n of the nominees and leading
member Of the convention, in the course
of his speech, accepting the nomination
for Superintendent of instruction,
said:
81 am not ashamed of the platform
adopted to-day. / am not ashamed of a
hint at reputation. If 1 were about
to die to-day I would cast my vote for
reputation. If 1 were on my way to
Heaven l would drop a ballot for repu-
diation. II I could have any influence
with angels, such a shower Of ballots
for reputation as would fall, would
astonish the world. 1 would free the
people in this way.n

NATURE has provided a most potent spe-

EXCITING NEWS.


Curtis A. Boies, Union Pacific staff, n
agent at Percy writes to the Sentinel
under date of August 18th, saying that
on that day a nan named John O'Brien
arrived at Percy in a half famished
condition, having had no fresh water
for two days, and his only food for two
weeks having been rabbits and sage
chickens, which he killed with his re-
volver. O'Brien reports that on the
night of July 30th, while encamped at
a point about half way between Vel
lowstone Lake and Tongue river, in the
northern part Of this Territory, a herd
of cattle, numbering 1920 head, and
belonging to Mccoy, of Texas, and
Taylor & Strong. of Cheyenne, was
stampeded by Indians, and he has no
doubt that all IN charge, excepting
himself; were killed. ct the time of
attack he, with two others, were on
guard, but had no intimation of the
approach of the4d0lans until the cattle
commenced running, when he, on
horseback at the time, was carried
along some distance from camp by the
fleeing stock, but, after some difficulty,
extricated himself from them, and i'm
mediately struck out south. After
riding two days, his horse becoming
exhausted, he started on foot, stopping
only a few hours at a time, for sleep,
until reaching here, where he saw a
living man for the first time since the
attack. He thinks the Indians num-
bered about two hundred. The cattle
were being driven from Texas to Chey-
enne, they going SO far north to find
feed. The party in charge was under
the leadership of j. Turner and w.
Myers, besides whom there were four
teen herders and one cook.
