Conway on the Negro Exodus.

KANSAS CITY. Sept. I9.-Gen. Thomas
w. Conway, OF New Jersey, the leader of
the coIored exodus movement, in an inter
view with Journal reporter, said he had
received information from reliable sources
that during the next year a hundred thous-
and, if not more colored people will emf
crate from the South to the North and
West. The popular element will not be so
prominent hereafter, and in view ofthe fact
not a score ofthe Southern refugees who have
gone into Kansas during the past summer
are now dependent upon public charity.
He is not surprised to find that colored i'm
migrants with means will meet with no
opposition in settling in Kansas. He has
applications for farm laborers from all the
western States, and could find homes for
twenty thousand.

Bear This in Mind.

I ilIOO 0tHLIHtII
The people of Mississippi are more inter
ested in keeping their local government in
the hands Of tried and true men than they
are in the financial question that is now
agitating the minds Of a certain few, who
aspire to be leaders and desire to ride into
office on a hobby. To agitate the question
of greenbacks or hard money, at this time,
is useless. Get everything else in healthy
state, and finance will regulate itself.

FRENCH pouItrymen are now feeding their
poultry for the markets with boiled and

the root are something wonderful, and it IS
said that peculiar flavor is impaired to
the flesh that suits the taste of the French

are considered the best for this purpose.

Collie in Stock.

A correspondent of the Massachusetts,
Ploughman gives the following cure for
collie in horses, which is convenient at all
times and easily applied. He says he has
never known it TO fail "Spread teacupful
or more of fine salt on the back of the ami
NAL over the kidneys and loins, and keep it
saturated with warm water for 20 or 30
minutes, or longer if necessary. If the
attack is severe drench with salt / have
a valuable bull weighing 1900 or 1900
pounds, which had a severe attack of collie
a year ago last summer. | applied salt to
ais back as above, and it being difficult to
drench, we put a wooden bit into his mouth,
keeping it open two inches, and spread salt
upon his tongue, which, together with the
salt on his back, relieved him at once, and
within a very short time equilibrium ap-
peared fully restored I have for several
years past successfully applied this treat
lnent to other animals in my herd"

Symptoms Of DiseasedLiver.

Symptoms Of a Diseased Liver.
Dam in the right side, under the
L edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; 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
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
eral are Costive, sometimes alternative
with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. . There is
generally a considerable loss of men,
DRY, accompanied with a painful SEN
sation of having left undone some
thing 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 sensa-
ton of the skin; his spirits are low;
and although he is satisfied that exer-
else would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few of them ex-
listed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.
AGUE, AND FEVER.
DR.. 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 a FAIR TRIAL.
For all bilious arrangements, and as
a simple purgative, they are unequaled.
