Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.

DAIN in the right side, under the
I edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to he
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 considerable loss of men,
ory, 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 FAIR TRIAL.
For all bilious arrangements, and as
simple purgative, they are unequaled.
BEWARE OF INVITATIONS.

On Friday evening OF last week the Political
Lyceum OF Scott Lake held q discussion Oh the
topic-the abolition OF the National Banks
Pliney Irwin with relay Of greenbackers went
for the banks, while McFarlin with a relay OF
disputants resisted their overthrow. All hands
sailed in, something after the following fashion
Irwin SAID the banks cost us gas, 900, 900 a
year; to which Nc. replied that they paid the
Gout IN taxes $1s, 100000 per annum. AS the
difference seemed to be great. the audience
concluded to split the difference and call 1t
even.
Tom Travis stated that 1t cost Washington
hogshead Of Tobacco and a barrel OF wh.ekey
to get elected The crowd couldn't see how
that effected the banks, but Tom did.
George here took the floor and remarked
that the Greenbackers were like Pats flea
when you found him he wasn't there.
Allen c. here poised himself to remark to
George that some people were like the humble
bee, biggest when first Matched. He didn't
explain whether he meant George or the
Greenbsck party, and 30 left the matter IN so
much doubt that when the question went to
the house for decision, it resulted in a tie. so
that 1t is quite impossible for fellow to decide
whether 1t is best to shut up bank and go into
q. b. politics, or hold on and bust.

"The well-known and popular colored con-
cert troupe tho Tennesseeans gave one OF

And this from the Ft. Wayne Sentinel on
the same occasion:
This company drew large audience at the
Academy last evening, considering the rain
and the entertainment gave unbounded satls-
faction. The programme s good one, and
the rare musical talent of the singers is gener-
ally conceded. The Tsnnesseeans may be sure
of warm reception whenever they return to

And the Ft. Wayne Gazette commented az
follows:
"For programme of sweet songs. sweetly
sung, one must hear the Tennesseeans OF to-
day. Although heretofore deservsdly popular,
In this city, nothing they have ever accomplish
ed here approached in excellence the concert OF
last night. 1t was satisfying from beginning
to the end. The house was good one, not
