McLANE'S CELEBRATED LIVER PILLS FOR THE CURE OF Hepatitis, or Liver Complaint, DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HEADACHE. Symptoms of a Diseased Liver. PMN in 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 binder 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, accompanied with a painful sensation of having 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 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 a fair trial. For all bilious derangements, and as a simple purgative, they are un equaled. BEWAAE OF IMITATIONS. The genuine are new sugar coated. Every box has a red wax seal on the lid, with the impression EMu McLane's Liver Pills. The genuine McLane's Liver Pills bear the signatures of C. McLane and Fleming Bros, on the wrappers. 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.

Naught if I Only am sure the way I've trod, Gloomy or gladdened, lead, to God, Questioning not of the bow, the why, If I but reach Him by-and-by. What will I care for the unshared sigh, If, in my fear of slip or fall, Closely I've clung to Christ through all, Mindless how rough the path might He, Since He will smooth It by-and-by? Ah! it will matter by-and-by! Nothing but this: That Joy or Pain Lifted me skyward, helped to gain, Whether through rack, or smile, or sih, Heaven home all in all, by-and-by! PERSONAL. AND POLITICAL,. The wife of Gen.Wm. T. Sherman has issued an appeal for help for the poor of Ken mare county, Ireland. Mr. Cabell's bill appropriating $65,- 000 for erecting a court and postofflce building at Danville, Va., has passed the Mouse. The nomination of Mr. Pinchback, colored, to be naval officer at New Or leans, will be sent to the Senate next Monday, if the President don't change nis mind. The Kentucky Republican State con vention, to appoint delegates to the na tional Republican convention, will be held in Louisville, April 14. Parnell and Dillon had a big recep tion at Toledo, Ohio, Thursday night, and spoke at a mass meeting. Mayor Romeis presided, and Congressman Hurd introduced the speakers. Mrs. Tennyson has composed the mu sic for the song which her husband has written for St. Nicholas, and both will appear in the March numoer of that magazine. JoseDh T.

J., has been indicted by the grand jury of union county, jn. J, ror emDezziing over $48,000 of the city's money. Intimate friends of the late President Lincoln deny that he was in the habit of carrying.a walking stick, and say that the paragraph published to the ef fect that he carried one on the night of the assassination, and that it was stolen from the box at the theatre, and has just been found at Troy, N. Y., is pure hction. A Kemarkable Cave, The Rev. Marcus Ormond, when at Washington, Pa., about a year ago was awakened from a sound sleep by a friend and told that his home in Alex ander, Pa., with all its contents, had been destroyed by fire. Dr. Ormond went home the next day, and while looking at the ruins of his house, He received the news that a- friend for whom-he had endorsed . had failed. Soon after, fie Teas found in .bed in ;n cooratosA condition, which continued for six weeks. Since then, although he has so far recovered his faculties as to be able to make the most intricate cal culations in his head, he cannot read, write or compute with figures on pa- er.

Trye Engage In a HmiHrD DiseaiMiion About the Troubles. Washington, Jan'y 22. The House resumed the consideration of the repoit of the committee on rules, and Mr. Fry e. Republican, of Maine, in the course of his speech, referred, to the salary grab, which led to the remark from Mr. Cox, Democrat,, of New York, "I did not vote for it and did not take the money, if you are looking at me," Mr. Frye I think the gentleman said he wanted it. . Mr. Cox I made the only speech against it - Be very just, because Maine is in trouble. . ' Mr. Frye Mainff was in trouble a Httle while ago, and. a host, of Fusion ists, Democrats, Hn.d;treenbackers, like the barbarous tribe?yf the North, in ig norance and barbarity, came flown on the good old Stt;f'Maill.nd at tempted to slaughter her jftnrxi thank God, they havegon Jhometnd,, thank Him further, tb;, wiajnevercoxne back. Applause yi.4hey Republican Mr. Cox I never wilrsay anything against your brotheiMn-law never will. Loud and continued laughter all over the-House,' Cox's reference being to Gov. Garcelon. Mr. Frye I had supposed that for a Democrat like my brother-in-law to marry a good, respectable woman for a wife would have led to a change of heart I am sorry I have something fo say against him myself. He did not ex- enence a change of heart, lie is a oco-foco still. fLaughter. Mr. Cox The Republican party used to take care of brothers-in-law. Laugh ter. I do not know but that my friend might have kept up the custom. Laughter. Mr. Frye then proceeded and conclud ed his speech in favor of the revision, and Mr. Cox closed the general debate in an hour's speech.. Mr. Cox turned his attentionto Horr, of Michigan, who had referred to Mr. Cox in a humorous speech. All great men were and had been witty. It was therefore no cause of reproach that the committee on foreign affairs had achair man who sometimes had been accused, but never fairly convicted of witticism. Laughter. Laughter was healthy. It was good tor the House. It oiled the joints and the countenance, causing it to shine like that of his friend Horr. Laughter. He asked that gentleman, Why should the spirit of mortal be proud V Why should there be proud flesh in the House ? If Goliah or Dan Lambert were here, would they twit a man like himself. about his size? Isaac Newton, when born, was put by his mother in a quart cup. He wished he had a cup to try the gentleman (Horr) with. He (Cox) was not proud of his appearance. He did not swell round the House, as soma others did. When somebody asked Falstaff what he was about, somebody said "Two yards." Laughter. There was no disability under the law in a man's being small. The constitution forbade a man beng a member under a certain age, but it did not say that a man had to be six feet high or two yards in girth. Laughter at the expense of Horr, who is a large, stout man. He (Cox) represented large men, fight ing men, good men. They hadneyer taken his altitude, and the gentleman (Horr) should not have done it. His constituents had never thought that bluster -was intellect, that meat meant manhood, or that layers of lard over the abdominal muscles made Gladstones and Disraelis. Laugh ter.J Shakespeare had said that flesh and frailty ever went together, and that the devil would nev er have Falstaff damned, lest the oil In him should set hell on fire. Laughter. If he (Cox) were called ripon to write the erentleman's epitaph, he would (bor rowing from the "Sweet Singer of Mich igan and Lord Byron) put it in these words: . Hera lies the body of Coi man Horn 'Tls grease (Greece7.tut ivlng grease no more. Shouts of laughter ' greeted this, and, after some remarks in reply to Mr. Kenna, Mr. Cox closed his speech. Tuck er, of Virginia moved that Horr, of Michigan, be allowed fifteen minutes to morrow to reply to !3ox s speech. Mr. Bragg objected. Mr. Horr Then I will go on to-mor row under the five-minute rule. I do not think it will take over five minutes to do the job. Laughter. THE CONFEDERATE STATES CON STIWTION. Some Provisions that Are not to be Found in the Contilutieu of tne "Nation." Philadelphia Times. Verv little attention has been paid bv historians to the civil history of the short-lived Confederate Government. An interesting; contribution in this dl rection is made in the current number of the Weekly Times by Professor J. L. M. Curry. The paper in question is an analysis of the principles and provi sions of the constitution adopted by the Montcomerv Congress and under which the States in rebellion were gOY erned. This constitution manifests more clearlv than anything else the ani mus of the secession movement and the methods of secession leaders, but it is also interesting because it contains several of the provisions which "re formers" now seek and have long sought to engraft upon the organic law OI tne V I11M3U Otaics. A system of civil service reform was provideu; cabinet officers were given seats on the floor of Congress for the purpose of diseussion and interroga tion; the President was to serve for six vears and be ineligible to re-election : veto of separate items of appropriation bills was allowable: any Federal officer resident or .acting, solely, within the limits of a State could be impeached by the Legislature of sueh. State; cabinet omcers ana ioreigu mi mate 13 were im movable by the President at wjU ; no neraftn reiected by the Senate could be re-appointed to , the same office during the recess of the. Senate, and so on, while manv features of the constitu tion of the United States were retained Bills to effect many of the changes thus brousrht about are before Congress, have been for years, and are everynow and then discussed by the presau cja is. curious to read in this article that on the 16th of March, 1861, the New York Herald published the Confederate con stitution in full, and three days after editorially recommended its adoption hv the United States as "the ultimatum of the seceded" States;', The Sera Id said: "The new-constitution is the constitution of the United States with some verv important and most desira ble improvements. W$- arafreeto say that the-intaluableteidrmgeanHierat-ed, should, be adopted by J,he .United Stateswith or without a Te-union of the seceded States and as soon as posst ble.
