MoLANE'S CELEBRATED LIVER PILLS FOR THE CURE OF Hepatitis, or Liver Complaint, DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HEADACHE. Symptoms of a Diseased Liver. PAIN iri the right side, under the 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 stom ach is affected with loss of appetite and sickness; the bowels in general - are costive, sometimes alternative with lax ; 'the- head is troubled with pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy sen sation in the back part. There is gen erally a considerable loss of memory, 1 accompanied with a painful sensation of haying left undone something which ought to have been done. A slight, dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient complains' of weariness and debility ; he is easily startled, his feet are cold or burning, and he com plains of a prickly sensation of the skin ; his spirits are low ; and although he is satisfied that; exercise 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 existed, yet exam ination of the body, after death, has shown the liver to have been exten sively deranged. AGUE AND FEVER. - Dr. C. McLane's Liver Pills, in cases of Ague and Fever, when taken with Quininej are jjrpductiye 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 derangements, and as a simple purgative, they are un equaled. BEWAltE OF IMITATIOXS.

We are gratified to learn that this railroad, in which our people are so deeply interested, will soon be out of its difficulties, and under the scheme of reorganization in which its creditors to an amount exceeding, ten millions of dollars have united, will commence an era of prosperity hitherto unknown in its history. The unanimity with which creditors of all classes have united in the reor ganization is a guarantee of the advan tages to be derived from it.

An" Auburn sportsman explains why he receives the numerous sea serpent stories of the season with a grain or al lowance. He was hunting on the shores of a lake in the wilds of Michigan, when he saw what "I believed to be a monster snake, fifty or sixty feet in length and ten or twelve inches in diameter, with humps on its back some two feet inlength At first its course was almost directly toward my place of concealment. When he was about to fly for his life, the ser pent, then a few rods aw ay, changed his course and resolved himself at once in to a colony of otter swimming in single file." His inference is that sea animals may sometimes travel in the same man and give sailors the opportunity of draw ing thelong bow.
