SEIGLE & CO., Tryon Street THE GENUINE DR.C.IcLANE'S Celebrated American WORM SPECIFIC OR VERMIFUGE. SYMPTOMS OF WORMS. THE countenance is pale and lead en-colored, with occasional flushes, or a circumscribed spot on one or both cheeks ; the eyes become dull ; the pupils dilate ; an azure semicircle runs along the . lower eye-lid ; the nose is irritated, swells, and sometimes bleeds ; a swelling of the upper lip ; occasional headache, with humming or throbbincr of the ears ; an unusual secretion of saliva ; slimy or furred tongue ; breath very foul, particularly in the morning ; appetite variable, sometimes voracious, with a gnawing sensation of the stomach, at others, entirely gone ; fleeting pains in the stomach ; occasional nausea and vom iting ; violent pains throughout the abdomen ; bowels irregular, at times costive ; stools slimy, not unfrequent ly tinged with blood ; belly swollen and hard ; urine turbid ; respiration occasionally difficult, and accompa nied by hiccough ; cough sometimes dry and convulsive ; uneasy and dis turbed sleep, with grinding of the teeth ; temper variable, but generally irritable, &c. Whenever the above symptoms are found to exist, DR. C. McLANE'S VERMIFUGE will certainly effect a cure. IT DOES NOT CONTAIN MERCURY in any form ; it is an innocent prepa ration, not capable of doing tke slightest injury to the twst tender infant. The genuine Dr. McLane's Ver mifuge bears the signatares of C. McLane and Fleming Bros, on the wrapper. :o: DR. C. McJLANE'S LIVER PILLS are not recommended as a reinedy "for all the ills that flesh is heir to," but in affections of the liver, and in all Bilious Complaints, Dyspepsia and Sick Head ache, or diseases of that character, they stand without a rival. AGUE AND FEVER. No better cathartic can be used prepar atory to, or after taking Quinine. As a sirop1? purgative they are un equaled. A OF IMITATIONS. The genuine are never sugar coated. Each box has a red wax seal on the lid, with the impression Dr. McLane's Liver Pills. Each wrapper bears the signatures of C. McLane and Fleming Bros. Insist upon having the genuine Dr. C. McLane's Liver Pills, prepared by Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa., the market being full of imitations of the name McLane, spelled differently but same pronunciation.

TTl&rklialH, Sec. Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun. THE FINANCIAL QUESTION. Washington, Dec. 8. The commit tee which was appointed by the Repub lican caucus last Tuesday to propose a plan ot action tor the party with refer ence to the financial legislation that has been or will be proposed has had several meetings, and is ready to report i,o the caucus. The committee consists of Senators Morrill, Conkling, Hamlin, McMillan, Booth, Kirkwood, Logan and Carpenter. The committee has, as already stated, decided unanimously, with the exception of Senator Morrill, to recommend that the Republicans in Congress, as a party, oppose all legisla tion whatever, the passage of which wili affect the present financial status of the count jy. They will report that even the agitation of the subject must disturb, and may damage, the commer cial Drosnentv tnat is now Deins emov ed, and that no sort onegislatiorr, "pro posed, or un proposed, anecting the finances could improve the present monetary condition. This report re ceives the assent ot all the committee except Senator Morrill, of Vermont, who wiu recommend, as a minority an immediate attack upon the legal-tender quality or the government notes and the adoption of a plaa for their future retirement. Senators Conkling and Hamlin, of the committee, agree to the report, although both of them favor Senator Morrill's views, as far as the greenback is concerned. The legisla tion that the committee opposes in cludes not only the Bayard resolution, and other measures relating to the greenback, but also all silver legislation the Warner unlimited coinage bill, the redemption of trade dollars, and kindred propositions. The recommen dations of the caucus committee will without doubt, be adopted by the lie publicans, and their policy in Congress for the session will be opposition to all action on the finances. As the Demo cracy is widely divided in the Senate on financial questions, and the Repub licans have the balance of power, the action of-the Republican committee, if approved by Ihe full caucus, will be of great importr. nee if the Democrats at tempt any positive action. For this reason the friends of Gov. Hendricks are to-night claimiag that the wisdom of the do-nothing pol'cy on the finances, as advocated by them, is abundantly demonstrated. The finance committee of the Senate meets to-morrow, and the Bayard resolution will probably be taken up, but the Republicans will op pose its consideration, and with Beck and Voorhees, who are opposed to it, will carry the point. NATIONAL REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE. A New York member of Congrers has received information that Governor-elect Cornell has wvicteo his resig nation as a member of the national Re publican committee, and that the Conk ling interest is being exerted to secure the appointment of ex-Congressman T. C. riattin the place of Mr. Cornell. The withdrawal of Mr. Cornell from the committee changes veiv much the situation i n regard to the chai rmanship, made vacant bv the. death ot the late Senator Chandler. The gentleman se lected to succeed Mr. Chandler on the committee belongs to what is known as the anti-Chandler wingof the Michigan Republicans. In the meeting. Oj: the national committee on the 17to instant the Question of the cha-vmanship and of the place for holding the next na tional convention wUl be the subject of animated and protracted discussion. The three places to be most prominent ly pressed upon the committee are Phil adelphia, Indianapolis and Chicago. The Blaine men on the committee, who claim that they are in the majority, favor Chicago. PAY OF UNITED STATES MARSHALS. A Democratic member of the com mittee on appropriations said to-day that the delay of the committee in mak ing appropriations for the marshals, who were not provided for last session, was entirety intentional, as the commit tee desired to wa'fc untd the lUa'ted States Supj-eme Court bad rendered its decisions in what are known as the Baltimore and Cincinnati "election cases," which involve the constitution ality of the Federal election laws au thorizing the appointment of deputy marshals on election days. .TCew Tlp.rnfi Nutshell: The Keuse "Manufacturing Company's cotton mills. were sold satuxiay.

Stealing; Sermons. Ner Yor'-: i. Most of tho Baptist preachers agreed yesterday that to pi each other men's sermons under pretence that they are their own, is dishonest, and some of the brethren went so far as to call the prac tice stealing. A result of the discussion has been the -disco very that very many plagiarJzed sermons are preached. Some times the exact language is appropriat ed, as well as the thoughts and argu ments, but of tener the discourses are rewritten. Many rural clergymen find their burdens materially lightened by subscribing to a weekly publication which contains abstracts' of sermons preached by the most noted of New York and Brooklyn pulpit orators. In each number are half a score of ser mons skilfully divided into heads, which any preacher of average intelli gence can stjin out into a forty-minute discourse. The sermons cover such a wide range of topics that, by running through a few back numbers, a subject appropriate to almost any occasion may be found. The editor of this sheet, which has a large circulation, employs two or three reporters, and also obtains abstracts of sermons from clergymen themselves. The Effect of the No ih Carolina Ne gro Exodus. Wasb. Cor. Bleb roond Dispatch. The fact that the negroes from North Carolina en route to the Western Prom ised Land stopped here ha3 been the means of attracting the attention or the whole country to the movement, and eliciting from Republican as well as Democratic sources a good deal C in form at on ih regard to the treat nent and condition of the colored people of the Siutof .Hon Joseph.
