Symptoms of a Diseased Liver. 1)AIN in the right side, under the edge of the ribs, increases on pressure; 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 stomach 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 sensation in the back part. There is generally 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 complains of a prickly sensation of the skin ; his spirits axe 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 hare occurred where few of them existed, yet examination of the body, after death, has shown the i.ivek to have been extensively deranged.

The red stripes were emblematical of fervency and zeal ; the white of integrity sad purity ; the blue field, with stars of unity, power and glory. The number, thirteen, was to symbolize the thirteen original eolooial States. Ia 1818 Congress passed an act adding a star upon the admission of each new State. .Such is a very brief synopsis of the history of our flag. "Our girls," as well as "our boys," may well admire the part this noble Quaker lady took in the grand work. She was a modest, plaiu Friend, who talked "thee" or "thou," and often was found bearing h m public testimony among the peaceful worshipers of the society. bhe was also a marked woman in her devotion to the sick and wounded and suffering. She was every day a visitor of the hospitals of the Revolution, and the celebrated Dr. Rush styled her "the magical Quakeress."

Romance Ontrivaled In a Pennsylnsnia Farmer's Good and Ill-fortune. From the Johnstown Tribune. One of the saddest of tragedies was that on Friday evening, at the home of Mr. Richard Hothem, near Hillside, Westmoreland County, Pa. Mr. H. and his wife went away on a visit on Friday, leaving at home their son Joseph, aged 21, their daughter Mary, aged It), and two other daughters, 0 aud 11 years of age, respectively. In the evening Joseph attended a spelling "bee," cautioned his sister Mary, as he went away, to beware of tramps. At 9 o'clock he started for home, and, as he approached the house, the barkins of the dogs alarmed his sisters, as Joseph was not expected back at so early an hour. It Is probable the
young man tried to test his sister Mary's courage, for he pulled his bat down over bis face and otherwise disguised himself. When he was within a few rods of the house Mary appeared lu the doorway ;and hailed him: "Is that you Joe?" But he did not aus wer, and continued to advance. Tho girl, now worked up to a high pitch of excitement, again hailed the advancing figure with," Who are you?" Still no answer, and Maiy shouted
sgaiu,"Is that you, Joe?" and ran in to the house and armed herself with a shotgun. Returning to the door she discovered, to her surprise, the strauge man standing on the steps, and as soon as she appeared he advanced toward her. "Stop," she shouted, "stop, or I will shoot yon!" He took another step, and at the same instant the girl raised the gun und üred, and he sank down on "he porch, groaning, "Oh, my dear sister!" "Oh, my dear brother, I have killed you!" the poor girl screamed as she carried him into the house, where he soon died. Richard Hothem, the father, is the man who, in 1861 or 1862, picked up a fortune on the railroad near his home. He was walking along the road and saw a foldud newspaper, and on picking it up fouud inclosed
$00,000 in bank notci-. He took the package to an attorney and sought legal advice. Advertisements wero inserted in the newspapers throughout the country, in the hope of discovering the loser of the money, and for over a
year a diligent search was made far and wide; but no one ever appeared to claim it, and Mr. Hothem eventuually appropriated it to his own uses. A short time previous to the finding of the money a large express robbery had been prepetrated near Harper's Ferry, andit was the general belief
that, being closely pressed by pursuers, the thieves had thrown the money from a car window, inteading to return for it on the first opportunity of eluding the detectives. A New EnrUnd h manre.

(suing to the City. An aged correspodent gives the following "short history" of the family of one of his neighbors: "He bad a family of three boys and three girls all are now living and have families. One of the sons and one of tha daughters went to Boston to seek their fortunes when they became of age, while the others remained and settled as farmers and furmera' wives within a few miles of the paternal roof. In their younger days the Bnat.on couple would occasionally visit their old birth place, and by their fine clothes and a liberal display of jewelry, became almost the envy of us country boys w inferring that Boston was a good place to get rich speedily. Twenty years have passed away tha boya aud girls who sectled down in Maine have fine, thrifty farms, well stocked, nice farm buildings, are out of debt,
enjoy ali the comforts of life, and, in I
fact, are what is known as 'well-to-do' families. Being in Boston a few months since, I called to see my old neighbors. They resided iu hired tenement houses, io the fourth story, on a narrow and confined street, and
complained of very dull times, with but little employment and small compensation forlabor.aud they informed me that were it not for the ussiatauce
received from their brothers an i sisters in the country they could not make a living the present dull times," There is no doubt that some persons from the country may prosper in the city. But they are not tho class that waste their time in sightseeing, their health in light lacing, and their money in tine clothe and flash jewelry or in luxurious and expensive amusements. The boy who is willing .to perform as hard work and stick to it as, many hours as he did on the farm, aud who will dress as plainly as ho did in the country, and who, in the midst of a
thousand temptations can save bis money as carefully as at home, may, under favorable circumstances, prosper in the city, and become influential and wealthy. But if he goes to the city for easy work, short time, fine clothes and gay
living, he will quite likely find himself at last where hundreds are today, without a home, a friend or a penny, and only anxious to get a place to work for bread to keep him from starving "Blessed is the man who stays where he is."

nois. It occured at Downer's Grove, in DuPage county. Pierce Downer was an early settler at this place. He was a man of considerable force of character, but of a some what turbulent disposition. In early days in this country, all kinds of farm produce were very cheap, and would scarcely pay for the raising. One season Downer turned his attention pretty exclusively to corn and poik, alleging that the exclusive manufacture of lard oil that was likely to occur, would greatly advance the price of pork. This idea; in which many of his neighbors did not concur, was his constant hobby at all social gatherings. One day Downer's whole drove of ( hogs broke through tuw fence into his coruiield doing much damage to his corn. Downer pursued theui, aud after mich difOculy and vtxation, succeeded in getting them out. Just as he was coming out of the field at the place where he made a gap
in the fence for tho escape of the hogs, he was accosted by au indolent aud irritating neighbor, name Taylor, who stood leaning upon the fenee with his chin resting on his folded arms, and who, it seems, had been ali the time a witness to Downeri tribulation, which, being an oppouent of the lard oi! speculation, he had rather enjoyed, offering no assistuuee. Viewing the dilapidated condition of the cornfield, eaid be, "There.
Dowuer, what do you think now ot your laid ile speculation!" This exasperated Downer's already over vexed spirit to a point beyond endurance, he thereupon ruslud upou Taylor with a stick he had used
iu chasing his hogs aud gave him what iu common speech ia called a threshing. "There," says Downer, "that's what I trink of it." Taylor proceeded to John Walker, a neighboring justice of the peace, and had Downer arrested atid brought up on a charge of assault and battery Walker heard the evidence of Taylor, after which he proceeded himself to cross-examine him, when tha fact was disclosed that Taylor had been,
during tho whole titno, an inactive spectator of Dowuer's tribulation.
This gave Walker at a glance a pretty clear insight into the irritating circumstances. In summing up the case, says he, "I don't know what the law might be iu other places, but the law of this court is, that if a man will stand by and see a drove of hogs in his neighbor's cornfleld, and not offer to help him drive them out, he ought to be threshed."
