Symptoms Of a DiseasedLive

pain 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 dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally considerable loss of men,
Dry, accompanied with painful sem
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 a 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, vet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deransed.

A recurrence Of the yellow fever
is predicted next summer in in the city by
the same writer. We can scarcely feel pity
for the afflicted place if it is true that the
citizens have SO fsr d~isregarded their own
safety as to leave the city in the condition
presented. Animal and vegetable refuse
is said to fill the streets; there is little or
no sewerage, and the water supply gener-
ally is poisoned by filth, while vaults and
wells filed with deleterious matter exhale
deadly gases, which pervade every part Of
the town. In addition to all this, hun
dreds Of last years yellow fever victims
have been exhumed and removed to other
places for burial, thus freeing the germs Of
the disease and spreading them broadcast.
The people are utterly obliyious or indif-
ferent to their danger and no efforts seem
to be on foot IN remedy what now looks
like inevitable fate. Next summer . wall
will go up from the afflicted people, and
the charitable all over the country will be
asked TO aid those who, when warned,
would not help themselves. Prompt and
decisive measures should at once be taken
by the threatened city, and when the people
have, like the WAGNER in the fable, put
their own shoulders to the wheel and failed.
they may justly call upon Hercules in the
shape OF the North. to help them in their
inability to help themselves.

A Terrible Flood.
HUNDREDS OF LIVES LOST,
Assistance for the Distressed.

PEsrH, March IA.
A large portion Of the suburbs of Sega
din being below the ordinary level Of the
river Thesis, the water which rushed in
from the higher ground behind the town,
being several feet above the present level
Of the river, tore down in its way the high
road ~embankments, rushing in cascades
into the lower ground, and inundating it
with fearful rapidity. Instead of five or
six hours, which it was calculated the
food would take to spread through the
town, scarcely an hour and a half passed
before Szegadin lay submerged. Withal,
however, some hope is entertained that on
account Of the alarm, which for days be-
fore the occurrence Of the calamity was
given, reused the population to a sense of
their danger, and gave them an opportunity
to fly for refuge. The loss of life has not
been very great, but the victims must at
any rate be numbered by many hundreds
il not by thousands, nor is the havoc yet
complete. Besides those swept away dur
ing that terrible night, all through Wednes-
day the dull and fatal ounds were heard
in all directions, indicating the successive
falls Of buildings. The Special Govern
ment Commissioner says the poorer classes
were extremely un willing to abandon their
houses. In many cases force had to be
used to pluck the people from the houses
that we're in a dangerous condition. All
the communities in the neighborhood vie
with each other in relieving their distress.
They are sending provisions by land and
water, and opening their houses to the
refugees. Comparatively few, however,
seem to avail themselves of the latter offer.
The working classes, especially, prefer
abiding by the nearest safe spot i'll town,
or close to it. Thus thousands are en-
camped on the high ~embankment running
| along the river, which stands firm, so that
the opening Of this embankment, to let the
water from above and behind the town run
into the river in front, could only be i'm
perfectly carried out.

At San Rafael, on Wednesday night
last, about 10 o'clock, Humphrey Kennedy,
aged 40 years, employed as a fireman on
the steamer San Rafael, stumbled on the
g%ang-plank while returning aboard, and,
in falling, struck his head against the
guards of the boat, and was precipitated
into the water, from whence his body was
recovered the following day. He was a
resident OF this city, and the body was
brought down this morning.

As early as IL o'clock q large c~oncourse
OF people assembled about the Court
house, aud as the hour approached, many
occupied elevated positions at windows, on
house-tops, and adjacent buildings, to get
. glimpse Of the terrible scene being en-
acted within the enclosure. About 1000
witnesses. q few Chinese among them, oc-
cupied various positions within the en-
closure. The death warrant having been
read through an interpreter in the Jail,
and all preparations being completed, pre-
cisely at 1880 o'clock the doomed culprit
emerged from his cell, escorted by the
Sheriff and his deputy, through the Jail
yard, thence through the main lower hall
Of the Courthouse to the place Of execu-
ton. He ascended the scaffeld with q firm
tread, and maintained q stolid indifference
TO the surroundings that has characterized
all his actions from the morning Of his ar
rest. Whilst on tho scaffold Q photograph
OF the view was made, causing moments OF
terrible suspense to the culprit. who the
while was shaking like an aspen. The
drop fell at 1885 O'Clock, with q heavy
thud, breaking his neck. After . few
spssmodic efforts, and lii minutes there
sfter, the physicians in attendance pro-
nounced life extinct. Whilst still sus-
pended. the Photographic instruments
were again brought into play, and a second
negative was taken. At las O'Clock the
body Was lowered, and removed by the

THE NEXT

A good deal Of interest il manifested
over the country just now concerning the
organization of the lower House OF Con-
gress On Tuesday next, and doubts are ex-
pressed In every quarter Is to whether the
Democrats will be able to control it. They
have 147 members elect. OF these one'

Of Louisiana. Ia 40 III that he may not be
present. II it Is held that q majority OF
Representatives elect from all the districts
constitute q quorum. then the man who is
elected Speaker will have to have l47 votes.
II II is held that = majority Of those elect
ed constitute = quorum, then l45 mem
beers will constitute . quorum, for Caiiior-
mia has not yet elected her four members
and several vacancies are yet to be filed.
Thus far. only 2s9 members have been
elected. The only precedent established
going 10 settle the question as to what is
necessary to constitute . quorum, is q de-
cision rendered by Speaker Grow, in 1861,
the absence Of the Southern members
raising the issue. Mr.. Grow decided
that = majority Of those elected to
the House constituted . quorum.
and that decision, based on common
sense and equity, will doubtless hold good
on Tuesday next. This being the case, the
Democrats will have . clear majority, leav-
ing out the Nationals and G~reenbackers.
These gentlemen claim to muster Fl votes,
and they hope to form = combination with
the Republicans which will enable them 10
name the Speaker. Their candidate will
probably be either Kelly. Of Pennsylvania.
or Bright. Of Tennessee. Mr.. Bright is .
pronounced soft money Democrat. He has
already served four terms in Congress-: is .
man Of acknowledged ability, and a repre-
sentative native-born Southern gentleman.
Should such . step be taken by the Ma
tionals, and should it result in the election
Of Mr.. Bright, it might 60 far toward break
ing up the Solid South on present political
issues. The trouble with this scheme will
be that the National managers will not be
able to muster q votes, nor will they be
able to consolidate the 1913 Republicans
upon their caucus nominee. Some hard
money Republicans may prefer to see an
honest-money Democrat in the chair, rath-
er than an Inflationist, and, upon the
whole, we conclude that the Democrats
will organize the next House.
