TAPPING THE WIRES.
The dispatch from Lord C'ranbrook, Sec
retary of State for India, to Lord Lytton,
Viceroy of India, is a document of the
highest importance. It is an indictment
of tbe frontier policy of Gladstone’s ad
min iatra-Jon, a defense of the present gov
ernment, and a reply to the anti-war agita
tion of the Afghan committee. Its pro
mulgation is a formal declaration of a state
of war. The news created no excitement
in the London Stock Exchange, there being
a lingering impression that when the Ameer
learns the British troops are actually in
motion he will submit. A special from
Thai, or Tbull, announces that the British
troops have occupied Fort Kapion, or
Xapyanga, beyond the frontier line, the
Afghans retiring hurriedly before them.
The Ministerial crisis in Peru has ended,
but the effect upon the business interests

A Northern Democratic Opinion of
Hon. A H. Stephens.
Commenting on the latest oracular de
liverance of Mr. Stephens, a portion of
which we printed in our issue of yester
day, the Albany (X. Y.) Argus says:
‘ ‘From the accounts of an interview re
ported to have been held with Hon. A.
H. Stephens, of Georgia, we gather that
he does not think the money question
hurt the Democratic paity in the late
elections, but that Democratic denuncia
tions of the fraudulent administration
hurt it. Mr. Hayes is an official after
Mr. Stephens’ own heart, if we can be
lieve the reporter’s account of the vibra
tions of that anatomical superfluity.
Mr. Hayes has only been executing the
law, and Ben Hill’s letter condemning
the appointment of every Presidency
thief to office was a great mistake—
in Mr. Stephens’ opinion. Mr.
Stephens has as much right to his opin
ions as if they were correct. He has a
right to pump them into print through
any reporter he can find. But his exer
cise of his right devolves a duty on
other men, and that duty requires it to
l>e said that if Mr. Stephens believes
what he says he believes, his place is
in the Republican paity. There are men
m the United States who have political
consciences. 3Ir. Stephens seems to
have only political opinions. There
are men who have political principles.
Mr. Stephens seems only to have
political theories. There are men
to whom a punished offender in
jail is a good deal more respectable or
tolerable than an unpunished offender in
power. There are men who think that
using a stolen office is worse than using
any other stolen property, for more peo
ple are injured by it. There are men
who think that the $600,000 Mr. Hayes
is paying out in salaries—that will be the
amount in the four years—to the seventy
odd thieves who stole the Presidency for
him is a scandalous robbery, and that
the appointment of such men is a hide
ous immorality. Mr. Stephens does not
believe that the belief of such men on
such things is right. He rivals Wells
and Cowgill in their admiration for this
administration which their crimes made.
If Mr. Stephens’ faculties have not
weakened, in the event of his being cor
rectly reported, his morals have weak
ened most deplorably, and it is time that
the truth-loving, fraud-hating men and
women of Georgia made him feel that
he does not represent them in what he
says.”
A very large proportion of the “truth
loving, fraud hating men and women
of Georgia” do most earnestly dis
sent from Mr. Stephens’ peculiar Demo
cracy; but Mr. Stephens does not hold
himself amenable to the people whom
he professes to represent. He does not
even represent the Democracy of his
own district. But there is a Hayes ele
ment in that district which, with his
personal following, enabled him to coerce
the nomination to Congress. While he
thus has the Democracy at his mercy, he
can afford to “tote his own skillet.” Mr.
Stephens answers to the Congressional
roll call as the member from the Eighth
Georgia district, but, in his strange and
inconsistent political vagaries, he defies
rather than represents the “truth-loving,
fraud hating men and women of Geor
gia.”
A Rebuke for Mr. Hayes.
At Indianapolis on Tuesday the grand
jury of the United States Court came in
to open court, and by their foreman,
General Hascall, reported that the
District Attorney had received
structions from the President of the
United States agaiust prosecuting a cer
tain party for alleged embezzlement in
the First National Bank of Indianapolis,
meaning Care}’ W. Miller, and that the}’
had been requested to investigate the
matter and desired to know from the
court whether it was their duty to pro
ceed with the case, the instructions of
the President to the District Attorney to
the contrary notwithstanding, whereupon
Judge Gresham charged them that they
were bound to respect their oath and
they could not if they would escape the
obligation of this oath by the heeding of
the instructions of the President in this
particular case. “The President may,”
said the Judge, “if he feels so inclined,
interfere even in advance of indictment,
by exercising the pardoning power. In
no other way has he the slightest
authority to control your action. lie
has it in his power to pardon the alleged
offender, and unless he is willing to take
this responsibility he has no more right
to control your .action than the Czar of
Russia. If you believe the President’s
instructions to the District Attorney
were intended to prevent you from
making the fullest examination into the
matter before you and from returning an
indictment against the accused if the
evidence should warrant it, you should
feel inspired with additional determina
tion to do your duty. The moment the
executive is allowed to control the action
of the courts in the administration of
criminal justice their independence is
gone. ”
The Judge was of course un
willing to believe that Mr. Hayes had
attempted any unwarrantable interfer
ence in the case under consideration.
Gen. Tom Ewing j 0 f Ohio, writes to
a friend in Washington that, while he
does not anticipate that his efforts will
meet with success, he proposes to take
every possible occasion which presents
itself to laljor assiduously to the end that
Not the Truth by Half.
A Washington telegram to the Cin
cinnati Gazette says: “Information has
come from the Third Georgia district to
the effect that Collector Wade, Republi
can, was really elected to Congress by
fully 3,000 majority, but that he was de
liberately counted out. This was done
after the polls were closed by deliberately
throwing out enough Republican votes
at the various precincts to accomplish it
and give Wade’s opponent a majority.”
The Gazette's “reliable correspondent”
did not tell half the story. He omitted
to state that in Early and Miller counties,
where Wade did not get a “single vote,”
every white Radical and negro was kill
ed, aud that in Quitman, Randolph and
Decatur counlies, where he only got a
dozen or two votes, hundreds of negroes
were shot and hung by the Democrats,
and that in those counties, and indeed all
through the district, negroes who wanted
to vote the Radical-Wade-Xational-
Grecuback-Labor-Reform ticket were
strung up like Weathersfield onions, a
dozen on a string. Rt-iie-able Radicals
who succeeded in making their escape
from the Third district report that dead
negroes are to be seen hanging, like honey
pods from the locust trees, all along the
roads, with Wade tickets pinned upon
their breasts. The stench may be nosed
for many miles, and the turkey-buzzards
are hovering m a cloud over the district.
It was not the counting but the hanging
that defeated Wade, and Mr. Hayes
ought to know it.
The co-operative associations of Ger
many have made steady progress during
the past year, notwithstanding the gen
eral stagnation in business. Their num
ber has reached 3,300, with more than
1,0J0,000 members, and the business
transacted exceeded $600,000,000. Their
capital in stock, buildings and other
.and in cash resources, is esti
Proposed PlaH for a National Quaran
tine.
A Washington special says: “Among
the propositions to be brought before
the Xational Health Association, at
Richmond, is a very elaborate plan for a
national quarantine and sanitary system,
which has been prepared in this city. It
proposes a central board of health at
Washington, to be composed of one
member of the medical corps of the
army, to be selected by the Secretary of
War; one member of the medical corps
of the navy, to be selected by the Secre
tary of the Navy; one member of the
marine hospital service, to be selected
by the Secretary of the Treasury, these
three to select two others from the
medical profession at large; this board
to appoint examiners to inquire into and
determine as to the qualifications of
local health officers throughout the
United States, the central board here
to have jurisdiction over the whole
subject of quarantine and sanitary regu
lations. This plan will have the
support of the army and navy influence,
and whether it receives the indorsement
of the association at Richmond or not it
will be presented to Congress. There
are also other propositions on this sub
ject, one of which, said to be favored
by leading members of the medical pro
fession, is the appointment of a commis
sion by Congress, to be composed of
three members of the Senate, three of
the House and seven medical men dis
tinguished for their sanitary researches,
and to collect all information on the sub
ject necessary for the adoption of an in
telligent and effective national system of
quarantine. It is objected by some that
the first plan is not sufficiently matured
so as to reconcile the conflicting juris
diction of the Federal and State Govern
ments. The necessity of the adoption of
some plan of quarantine is fully recog
nized, and the intelligent consideration
of the subject by such a body as that
now at Richmond must be berfeficial.”
Providing Against the Ghouls.
The experiences undergone by certain
citizens of this country during the past
few months, in realizing that the graves
of friends or relatives have been dese
crated, have led people in the North and
West to the consideration of possible
means for frustrating the future depre
dations of conscienceless scoundrels.
There has been on exhibition in some of
the States lately a patent sarcophagus.
This is a heavy stone portable tomb that
can be placed in any desirable position
about the premises, in vaults, or interred.
It is equally suitable for placement above
ground as below. It is so heavy that it
can net be transported, it being necessary
to move it by the means of a small der
rick. It is so constructed that it will re
sist the action of water, acids, etc., and,
when hermetically sealed, the corpse
may be preserved an unlimited number
of years. Set into the lid is a marble
slab for the inscription, and altogether
the concern is calculated to obviate any
such heinous practice as body snatching.
It can be procured for a sum not to ex
ceed the cost of a metallic casket, and at
once constitutes coffin and an imperish
able monument. The sarcophagus is
likely to become very popular in the
North, where only the poor are permit
ted to rest securely in their graves.
The announcement that Mis3 Harriet
Ilosmer has discovered that magnetism
is a dynamic and not a static force, and
has invented a means of utilizing the
power to produce motion, has raised up
rival claimants to the alleged discovery
and invention. The latest claimant is
W. W. Gary, of Pennsylvania, now re
siding in Boston, who has been experi
menting in magnetism for many years,
and whose labors were successfully ter
minated a couple of weeks ago. He is
now, it is said, engaged in perfecting
some machines for public exhibition,
illustrating the principle of bis discovery
and showing how it can be made to work.
If, remarks a cotemporary, Miss Hos-
raer or Mr. Gary can establish
what they are understood to claim,
our system of philosophy will be upset
and the present methods of converting
the various forces in nature into forms
of useful energy will be revolutionized.
The principle of the invention, if car
ried out, will produce perpetual motion.
This fact alone will be sufficient to cause
many to disbelieve the whole story.
Georgia’s Progress. — Taking into
consideration the hardness of the times,
Georgia seems to be getting along very
well. To be sure there is a decrease in
the grand tax list of the State; last year
the reported total was $236,659,530, or
$10,194,920 less than 1876, but this is ex
plained by tbe shrinkage of values. In
live stock, Georgia was $970,606 richer
in 1877 than in 1876; in farming and me
chanical tools, $438,851; and in bonds
and stocks, $1,454,062. Population has
slightly increased, in spite of the steady
drain of the Texan emigration fever;
whereas in 1876 there were in the State
204,507 men who paid poll tax, last year
there were 207,815. The sum invested
in cotton manufactories in 1877 was $2,-
739,200; the school fund was $150,225.
The State tax was 50 cents on $100, and
the average county rate about tbe same.
The colored people of the State returned
taxable property reaching an aggregate
value of $5,430,844.
According to a Washington special,
Beast Butler is now beginning to realize
some of the results of belonging to no
party at all. Each member of Congress
connected with the party in power has
the dispensing of certain department
patronage, and Butler has never allowed
much grass to grow under his leet in
this line of business. Since his with
drawal from the Republican ranks his
appointees, among whom are a number
of ladies, have felt quite shaky, fearing
their tenure would be brief. On Tues
day the axe fell on all of Butler’s friends
in the Treasury and post office, about
ten all told, their dismissals taking effect
from December 1st.
The brewers of Cincinnati have found
it necessary to combine against the de
mands of the German singing societies,
clubs, lodges, churches and other
organizations of that city. The calls
upon them from these quarters for con
tributions of beer and the purchase of
tickets on the occasion of anniversaries,
picnics, and fetes had grown, they say,
to be entirely intolerable, an(^ since to
refuse in some cases would have given
offense, they determined to combine and
refuse in a^ instances. The larger
breweries found this tax on their re
sources to amount to $8,000 or $10,000 a
year each.
A Fatal Disease in Cuba.—Letters
from Sagua and Cqjd^nas, Cuba, of the
latest date, speak of a disease analogous
to yellow fever which i6 prevailing very
fatally in those districts. The disease
originated in Colon, and is supposed to
have been generated by a vast quantity
of decomposed vegetable matter scat
tered oyer tbe district bv the recent
heavy inundations. Among the v.ctims
mentioned is Mr. Jo. 4 e Garcia Augarica,

The Russian “Patriotic Fleet.”
The Russian Cruiser Committee evi
dently regard a war with Great Britian
as by no means an improbable event.
So believing, they are preparing to give
the Czar all the help they can. Besides
the steamships bought in the United
States they have bought others else
where out of the fund raised by sub
scriptions voluntarily made by Russian
citizens. So great has been the success
of the committee in this respect that
thev have enlarged their sphere of action
They propose to organize a “patriotic
fleet” to be employed as far as possible
in European waters and in the North
Pacific. A classification of vessels has
been arranged, varying from 800 to 6,000
tons, and numbering about seventy
in all. Good speed and large coal
carrying capacity are held as in
dispensable for the admission of
any trading steamer into this fleet.
The most approved fittings for armed
cruisers will be appropriated to these
ships, and such as will admit of being
rapidly put on board. The Russian citi
zens who have undertaken to organize
and equip this fleet have, says the
Baltimore .Sun, evidently profited by
their knowledge of the depredations
of the Alabama and her consorts
on the high seas during our civil war.
They assume, and justly, that the heav
iest blow to England, one that she would
feel most severely, would be a blow
struck at her commerce, and seventy
fast steamships, maimed and equipped
as cruisers, would work havoc among
her shipping. It is a menace to England
of which she can take no official notice.
It is a private enterprise. It is a trading
fleet in peace ready to be converted into
armed cruisers in war. What can she
do about it?
Mr. Evarts on the Southern Question.
Secretary Evarts has found time to
express some opinions on the Southern
question, which will be found in an
other column. He says that the present
troubles down South are only spasmodic
mob demonstrations, but insists that the
execution of Federal laws in the South
should not be intrusted to men not in
sympathy with the laws. This means
that none but Republicans should be
placed on guard. 31 r. Hayes has already
commenced looking through the South
to find enough Republican party to hold
the Federal offices. 3Ir. Evarts further
admits that the Southern whites suf
fered severely from ti: bjutever&ement
of their social system and the intro
duction into their voting aggregate
of a heterogeneous element; that while it
may have been a mistake of the Repub
lican party in the North to concede to
the uneducated and inexperienced full
power in political affairs, yet as the act
of enfranchisement was accompanied by
a promise or guarantee of protection,
the promise, nevertheless, should be
strictly adhered to, and the law and the
execution of it must follow as a matter
of duty, patriotism and stern necessity.
It is, says the Baltimore Gazette, gratify
ing to observe, although 3Ir. Evarts tries
hard to hide his real sentiments under
such umbrageous words as “bouleverse-
ment” and “heterogeneous,” that the
Republican party i3 sadly lamenting its
mistaken kindness toward the negroes of
the South.
The following is said to be a correct

The Democratic Prospect in New
York.—A Washington special to the Bal
timore Gazette says: “An active Republi
can politician of New York who was
defeated for Congress a few years ago,
writes an interesting letter to a friend
here on the recent election in that State.
He says it was no victory for the Repub
lican party, which would have met with
a disastrous defeat if it had not been for
the Greenbackers and the free fight
against Tammany. In his own section
of the State he says the people are growl
ing about the heavy taxes imposed by
the Republican administration, and that
they don’t appreciate the heavy reduc
tion of the national debt, nor see in it an
adequate compensation for the burden of
taxation. He says further, that Roscoe
Conkling need not flatter himself that
the victory is his, even though it bring
him re-election. New York, he says,
will go Democratic sure in 1880. This
comes from one of the be:t informed
politicians of New York, who is at the
same time a good hater of Democrats.”
BY TELEGRAPH
THE STATE LEGISLATURE.
Contests in Congress.—From indica
tions so far the probability is that the
next House of Representatives will have
more contested election cases before it
than have been before any House for
many years. Already we have knowl
edge of contests to be made from Massa
chusetts, Pennsylvania, New York, Mary
land, Indiana, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Louisiana and Wisconsin. Of
these contests nearly one-half will be
made by Republicans. In view of the
remarkably close vote in a number of
districts, informality of certificates and
other causes, the Clerk of the House will
have a very difficult and delicate duty in
making up the roll of the next House of
Representatives.
A Bogus Lord. —The New York Tri
bune says the select inner circle of society
in that city has again been imposed upon
by a bogus Lord, giving the name of
3Iontague Anderson, of England. He
came a thing of mild and modest beauty,
but did not remain a joy forever. In
fact, when he had sufficiently victimized
his friends, like an Arab, he folded his
tent and stole away. The New York
Express thinks perhaps by-and by New
York society will learn that there are
quite as clever swindlers in Europe as in
this country, and that, as a rule, travel
ing Lords are things to be avoided.

Jacksonville, Fla., November21.—Four
citizens of Gadsden county, who were ar
rested by a Deputy United States Marshal
for alleged interference with the inspectors
at the late election, have been brought
here and will have an examination to-mor
row.
A special dispatch to the Sun and Press
from Tallahassee says that the Supreme
Court has decided that three precinct re
turns, which were rejected by the Alachua
county canvassing board, are good and
valid, and has issued a peremptory writ to
the board to canvass them. These precincts
gave Bisbee, Republican, a majority of four
hundred and fifty, and by the rejection of
their returns by the canvassing board, Hull
Democrat, was elected. Bisbee’s majority
is about two hundred in the district.

THE CAUSES OF THE AFGHAN* WAR.
London, November 21.—The following
are tbe principal points of Lord Cranbrook’s
letter to the Governor General of India:
i letter opens with a statement of the
setued policy of the British Government to
maintain on the northwestern Indian
frontier a friendly and independent state.
That with this view Shere Ali was recognized
upon his accession and furnished by tbe
Indian Government with money and arms
to establish and maintain his authority.
In the meantime the negotiations of Her
Majesty’s Government with the Government
of the Czar, ended in an amicable under
standing a6 to the limits of Afghanistan.
The capture of Khivar by the Russians in
1S73 alarmed the Ameer, who sent an Em
bassy to India to ascertain how far he
could rely on the help of the Indian
Government in the event of a Russian
invasion. Lord Northbrook assured him
of assistance in case of unprovoked
aggressioB, but said that the contingency
was remote and doubtful, and that the dis
cussion of the question had best be dropped.
This was unfavorably received by the
Ameer; his attitude became one of sullen
reserve, and his relations with the Russian
Governor General of Turkestan grew more
intimate. This decided Her Majesty’s
Government to ascertain definitely
the Ameer’s sentiments. The over
tures made by Lord LyttOD, however,
were practically rejected. After the recep
tion by the Ameer of the Russian Embassy,
Her 3Iajesty’s Government determined to
make another effort to re-establish friendly
relations by means of an Embassy under
Sir Neville Chamberlain. The Embassy was
not allowed, however, by the Ameer to enter
his territory. This, the letter states, was
wholly unjustifiable and in violation
of the treaty, and Lord Lytton was directed
to demand that the Ameer apologize for the
affront before the 20th of November, on
penalty of being considered and declared
an enemy. The letter closes with assurances
to Lord Lytton of the support of the home
government and the statement that this
dispatch is published by Her Majesty’s
order for the information of the people.
ARRESTS IS SOUTH CAROLINA.
Charleston, S. C., November 21.—
United States Commissioner Wiggins, who
has been making election arrests in Barn
well, was recently arrested on a charge of
having accepted a bribe to compromise a
case, when State Solicitor in 1875. He was

NO rmrPBfivy r >TTH ASSASSINS.
London, November 21.—A Reuter Ule-
gr&m from Romi Bays: “Signor Zmardelli
has informed tliif Chambers that the govern
ment intends tatake measures deemed ne
cessary agains* secret revolutionary socie
ties, and that* while upholding the princi
ples of liberty, it cannot compromise with
MURDER IN LOUISIANA.
Fpanklin. La.. November 21.—Chi the
morning of the 20th rumors were afloat that
tbe residence of Gilbert Newman, Clerk of
the District Court of St. Mary, had been
entered the night before by unknown
armed men. Several prominent citizens
went to Newman’s bouse to ascertain
the truth or falsity of the reports.
Upon examination they discovered traces
of a desperate struggle, there beiDg bullet
hole* in every direction and blood on the
floor, the door knobs, and the path leading
to the gate. About this time an
other report was circulated that Thos.
P. Wilson, an industrious and highly
esteemed young farmer, living about two
miles above here, had been carried home
the night before by unknown parties,
literally chot to pieces. He died at
four ’o’clock this morning. New
man and wife say that they did
not recognize their assailants, which, cou
pled with the high moral character of Wil
son, leayes good reasons to doubt that he
had anything to do with the persons who
visited Newman’s house. Newman and wife
escaped unhurt.
GRAND RECEPTION OF THE VICE ROYAL
PARTY.
Halifax, November 21.—Tons of spruce
and evergreens and hundreds of flag poles
are to be seen in all directions. Vice Ad
miral Ingelfield, with tbe fleet, will
leave the port on Friday or Satur
day to meet the Sarmatian returning. The
fleet will form a double line and enter
the harbor in two lines. The flagship Bellero-
phon, and Her Majesty’s steamers Rover and
Argus will occupy the western side of the
harbor. The Duke of Edinburgh, in the
Black Prince, with Her Majesty’s steamers
Pert and Constant, will come up on the
eastern side of the harbor with the Sarma
tian in the centre.
The Inter-Colonial Railroad authorities
are making extensive preparations for the
safe, speedy and comfortable transit of the
Marquis and Princes to Quebec. The train,
when on the road, will be handsomest
which has ever gone over the Inter-Colonial.
MOVEMENTS OF THE BRITISH ARMY.
London, November 21.—A Reuter tele
gram dated Lahore, November 21, says:
“The British force from Suettah has
reached Kushlak and is suffering severe
ly from the intense cold. About one
hundred men are sick in each
regiment. The proclamation of the Viceroy
to the Belooch chiefs states that war
will be waged only with The Ameer, and
advises the people to remain at home. The
Suettah column numbers 5,260 men. A
division of 6,330 men, under Lieutenant
General Stewart, has left Mooltan for
Suettah.
S’EAMER CONDEMNED.
New London, Conn., November 21.—The
steamer Jno. Bramhall, ashore at Little Gull
Island, was condemned by the Board of
Survey to-day, and will be sold at auction.
The bottom is completely out of her. Four-
fifths of her cargo has alread} been taken,
and the remainder will be taken within a
few days.
NO COMPLICATIONS BETWEEN ENGLAND AND
RUSSIA.
Brussels, November 21.—The Russian
organ Le Xord says that the reports which
will doubtless be circulated as to complica
tions between England and Russia may be
characterized beforehand as false. There is
no prospect of such an eventuality.
HUNG FOR MURDER.
Chicago, November 21.—A special from
Houston, Texas, says that Juan Antonio
Hernandez was hung’at noon to-day, at Re-
fagia, South Texas, for the murder of Wal-
der aud Maton. He protested his innocence.

SAMEL P. HAMTOA
IMPORTER AND DEALER IN
The Treasury and Resumption.
A Washington special to the New
York Daily Bulletin says: “It should be
understood that the Secretary of the
Treasury has by no means committed
himself to the whole policy adopted last
week by the New York clearing house.
He, of course, esteems very highly the
engagement of the banks to abolish as
far as possible all distinctions between
gold and greenbacks, as that will be a
most potent preventive of any drain
upon the Treasury for gold. Aud he at
taches great value to the agreement of
the banks to accept, in the clearing
house, the payment of all drafts on the
Treasury in legal tenders; as that im
plies an honest purpose on the part of
the hanks not to supply themselves with
gold at the expense of the government—
a matter about which there had been
some serious doubts.
“But the Secretary has made no promi
ses, either expressly or by implication,
that would commit him to any particu
lar line of policy respecting silver pay
ments. Indeed, the banks appear to
have so well appreciated his obligations
under the law as not to have even hinted,
in their interview with 3Ir. Sherman, at
his making any discriminations against
silver in his payments. Nothing Ts yet
determined as to whether silver will’be
paid out as interest on the public
debt: and although the banks have
promised to accept payment of all
drafts on the Treasury in greenbacks
yet they have no assurance whatever that
such payments may not be made partially
in silver. The probabilities are that,
partly out of respect for Western politi
cal influence, and partly because of the
continuous accumulation of silver in the
Treasury which can be got rid of in no
other way, the Secretary may before long
begin to pay a portion of both his inter
est and his ordinary departmental dis
bursements in the standard silver dollar.
Any other course would probably expose
him to Western censure, and to receiving
express instructions from Congress as to
his action in the premises.”

THE GENUINE
DR. C. McIANE'S
Celebrated American
WORM SPECIFIC
OR
VERMIFUGE.
SYMPTOMS OF WORMS.
T HE 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 throbbing 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
dr> r 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 the slightest
injury to the most tender infant.
The genuine Dr. McLane’s Ver
mifuge bears the signatures of C.
McLane and Fleming Bros, on the
wrapper. —:o:—
DR. C. McLANE’S
LIVER PILLS
are not recommended as a remedy “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 simple purgative they are un
equaled.
BEWARE 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
u. alCl^’E anc * 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.
