LIVER PILLS.
SYMPTOMS OF A DISEASED LIVER.
W. ]. WATSON,
p. w. SEMMES.

Pain in the right side, under edge of ribs,
increasing on pressure sometimes the pain Is
on the left side; the patient is rarely able to
lie on the left side; sometimes the pain is felt
under the shoulder and is sometimes taken
for Rheumatism in the arm. The stomach is
affected with loss OF appetite and sickness:
the bowels in general are costive, sometimes
alternating with laxity; the head is troubled
with pain, accompanied with a duh, heavy
sensation In the back part There is gener-
ally a considerable loss of memory, accompa-
MED with a painful sensation of having left
undone something which ought to have bee
done. A slight, dry cough Is sometimes
tendant- The patient complains of wearine
and debility; he is easily startled; his fe
are cold or burning, and he complains OF
prickly sensation of the skin; his spirits al
low, and, although he is satisfied that exef-
else would be beneficial to him, yet he can
scarcely summon up foKitude enough to
try it.

oar Enormous on trade.

Something OF the enormous proportions OF
the oil trade in the various exchanges oil
ibis country is gathered from an inspection
OF the sales and resales, ending on the
sd of September, in the three exchanges
at Bradford, Oil City and Pittsburg.
The transactions during the .ix days aver
aged 1888. 900 barrels per day. Add
10 this the transactions 10 the New York,
Warren and Philadelphia exchanges, and
the sum total would aggregate upward
of 100000 barrels daily. That the gre at
bulk OF this trade is speculative is manifest
from the fact that the total daily production
does not exceed so, 900 barrels at the present
time. But there are upward of 10000, 900
barrels ia store, besides the daily production,
and this vast amount, represented by cerii6-
Gates which are readily transferable, fur

Mr.. Edward Atkinson has found a
new element of value in the cotton crOi',
and one which promises to advance
materially the prosperity OF Southern
farmers. 1t Pears that for each bale
of lint there are 1900 pounds of stems,
which are rich in phosphates of lime
and potash. When ground aud mixed
with ensilage or cotton seed meal, which
IA too rich as fodder in large Quantities,
the stem mixture makes superior cat
tie food. rich in all the elements needed
for the production Of milk, meat and
bone. 1t is believed that this utiliza-
ton of the cotton stems will greatly
facilitate the raising of stock by furnish
ing substitute for grain, which now
has to be brought from the West.

The following statement of William
J. Coughlin, of Somerville, Mass, is so
remarkable that we beg to ask for it
the attention of our readers. He says:
''In the fall of 1876 l was taken with
a violent bleeding Of the lungs, followed
by a severe cough. l o began to
lose my appetite and flesh. L was so
weak at one time that l could not leave
my bed. In the summer of 1877 l was
admitted to the city hospital. While
there the doctors said l had a hole in
my left lung as big as n half dollar. l
expended over a hundred dollars in
doctors and medicines. l was so far
gone at n time a report went around
that l vas dead. l gave up hope, but
n friend told me of DIR. VIM. Halls
Balsam for the Lungs. L laughed at
my friends, thinking that my case was
incurable, but L got a bottle to satisfy
them, when to my surprise and gratif-
cation, / commenced to feel better.

and to-day l feel in better spirits than

Founder is a disease which requires the
most prompt and efficacious treatment; and
unless speedy relief be afforded, the COM
plant increases and soon d~egenerates into q
more serious form of disease, and proves
extremely difficult to cure. 1t may arise
from various causes. The following, we
believe, are those by which it is generally
produced l. Drinking freely of cold water
when heated by violent exercise, particul-
arly when such exercise has been contin-
ued for some time. 3. Exposure to cold,
wind or rain under the same circumstances.
3. 1mmoderate allowance of corn. This
complaint consists Contamination or fever,
and begins with an appearance of weakness
or loss of vital energy, followed by stiff
ness ofthe legs and body.
At the first attack of the malady, i'm
mersing the feet in tubs of warm water
for twenty-four hours will generally be
found an effectual remedy; but if it b. neg-
lected is most commonly succeeded by
laminitis. Laminitis exists in the form
OflOcal inflammation in the foot, which very
soon diffuses itself to the Illuminated struc-
ture, and does great injury to these i'm
portant members, occasioning severe pain
and lameness, and proving extremely diff
cult to cure. When we consider that the
horses weight is suspended by these lam
inc, as n carriage by its springs, and though
the bottom of the internal foot is in con-
tact with the sole, it, nevertheless, does
not press upOni it considerably, except when
the horse is in motion, and the back part
of the lamine elongates and descends upon
the sole in a small degree, it will readily
appear that when these elastic membranes
are no longer capable of supporting and
moving under the weight, the internal
foot mustpress upon the sole, which flat
tens or convexesi it, and is commonly known
as the drop sole or pummice foot. When
laminG are thus affected, the malady gen
orally proceeds to a complete separation
between the crust and the internal parts.
The crust then loses its proper form, and
becomes t~latter, appearing as if it was
forced upward from the ground. When
this separation takes place, tn > accidental
cavity is filled with . precipitation Of
horny, fungous matter Western Rural.

"A s~aCrilegious son of Belial, who suf-

his finances, in order to make good the

~, lenient and docile young lady of the
Malay or Caucasian race. He according
ly purchased n calliope and coral necklace
OF n chameleon hue, and securing a suite
of rooms at n principal hotel, engaged
he head waiter as his coadjutor. He
then dispatched n letter of the most IN
exceptional caligraphy e%xtant, inviting
the young lady to n matinee. She revolt
edat the idea, refused TO consider herself
sacriicable to his desires, and SEM n po-
lite note of refusal, on receiving which,
he procured n carbine and q bowie knife
n said he would not now forge letters

Sponge Growing.

The universal and increasing demand
for sponges, n the unremitting drain to
which all the best fisheries" are subjected,
has led to a partial dearth in the supplyo of
these useful articles; but art, which has
hus threatened the extinction of the sup
ply has in this, as in many similar cases,
stepped in to restore the balance. 1t is
only within the last few years that the
real nature of the sponge has been recog-
nized. In its natural state it is n disagrea-
BILE and almost repulsiye looking object,
the soft, fbrous mass, which every one is
30 familiar with, being hidden beneath,
and its incrscies being fixed up by q shiny,
gelatinous substance, which rapidly putri-
fies, and adds ten-fold to the generally
disagreable nature of the thing. The tie
nacity with which these objects afix them
selves to rocks and stones suggests the idea
that they are 4 species of vegetable, though
they realty belong to the animal kingdom,
and are allied to the anemoncs and other
zoopnytes, with the beautiful appearance
Of many of which the public aquaria have
to make us acquainted.
A sponge is nothing more than an ami
mated stomach, which, though the very
lowest of all forms of animated life, is en-
dowed with more reason than the stomachs
of the many so called lords of creation, or
mankind, inasmuch as it knows what is
good and what is bad for it, and rejects the
latter while it imbibes' only the former.
The gelatinous substance, which forms the
actual body of the sponge, being beaten
and washed out of it, the fbrous skeleton
is left in the form in which it is sold in the
shops. The search for these creatures en-
ploys an army of skilled divers, the princi-
pal sponge grounds being in the Greek
Archipelago, and in other parts of the Med
iterranean, in the Red Sea, in the Bahamas,
and in other parts of the West Indies, and
in some of the islands of the Pacific. The
Colonies and India gives publicity to n fact
which is likely to diminish the dangers
attending the operation of sponging, and
at the same time to increase the available
supply of sponges.
1t appears that two German naturalists
have made the discovery hat small pieces
carefully cut from live sponges, and attach
ed to boards or stones, and SINK in suita-
BILE places, will grow in a few months into
large sponges, as though nothing had hap
pened. This fact is of the utmost impor-
lance to our sponge growing colonies. Our
contemporary suggests that n close time
should be enacted in the Bahamas and 9TH
er localities where sponges are diminish
ing in numbers but with or without such
a law, the possibility of growing sponges
at will and increasing their number indef-
inately in the manner described by the
German naturalists, should o set at
rest any doubts as to a falling off in the
supply of these invaluable articles.

Chalking the Hat.

This phrase was due to Admiral Reside,
in the days when congressman went lum-
boring over he distant States in stage
coaches. At the annual adjournment of
Congress, Admiral Reside would pass his
friends of the two houses over his stage
lines after the following fashion: "Mr. C.,
l suppose you are going back to Lexington?
| will pass you through on my coaches"
All right; but how will your agents along
the road know this fact ?" Just give me
your hat" Upon the tile being passed
over, this Napoleon of the stage, taking a
piece of chalk from his pocket, would dash
of in brilliant white upon the black
ground a peculiar hieroglyphic, impossible
to counterfeit, and hand it back to the
owner with the remark, Just show that to
my agents along the route"
