The Appoitionment Bill
In looking over the Bill fir districting
the state, we sco that the Whigs will have,
according to the vote of 1810, tkirteen out
of the twenty-lour members of Congress.
Wilt it be believed that notwithstanding
this exceedingly liberal arrangement the
democrats of the Legislature are denoun.
ced for Gerrymandering, a rd all the fed
etal spouters and scribblers. from the Ga.
zette's"Lubby" man upwa ds,are shower
ing abuse upon the maj•)rity of the Le •
gislature ? Such is the fact, however in—
credible it may seem to those who know
little or nothing of federal impudence and
recklessness.
It may well be asked, what will satisfy
these cormorants ?--how shall their un
sated maws, ever extended for power and
its peryisites, be closed ?—how will their
ambitious longings be gratified, if they
growl at the generous proposition of their
opponents to give them 13 of the 24 Con
glesssrien to which Pennsylvania is eoti•
tied ?
We should like to hear what argument
the federalists can use to show that they
have been uhfairly dea't with. Will they
say that the election of 1840 was a mere
paragraph in the chapter of accidents ?
Will they admit that they carried the state
in 1810, by falsehood, fraud and hutnhuz.
fiery, and that they never can hope to suc.
ceed again ? We should like to know how
they can complain if they do not concede
this.
It remains to he seers what order the
democrats of Pennsylvania will take with
their representatives fur thus apparently
yielding to the importunities of a hmor
ous minority, and giving them so large a
share of power in the national eouncik.—
We hope the majority of our Legislature
will be able to answer all objection. satis
facto:Hy,
We think it right to add here, that, lot
our own part, we are satisfied with the
bill. and trust that the union acid eneiey
ur the derrwei dcy may triumph over the
apparent unfairness of its provisions, and
secure a maJ rityof the delegation in Con
gress Nom the Keystone state.

SYMPTOMS OF A DISEASED LIVER.
General loss of appetite, sickness of the stom—

sense of weariness, with sleepless nights, costive
nese of bowels, followed in some cases hypo/series!,
diy cough, low spirits, with disinclinatOn
to every duty, are prominent symptoms of a dis
eased state oldie Liver. The Liver is, however,
often much derangod, when the most formidable
'symptoms are ahsent, and becomes sadly out of
order before it is known.
This celebrated medicine has been in public use
for about coven yea's, ltitt;l has acqured a populari
ty for curiog the liver complaint, which is not say
passed by any remedy before the public. When the
symptoms above mentioned are present, and the di
rections strictly followed, the proprietor is, perfectly
willing to refund" the money, if no bet:efit is derived
brim the use of the pills.
IRAs an Anti Billinitg nr Purgative Pill, they are

Liver, indicated by the lose of appetite. Bei6g ad

before using hallo box I was resmred to my usual
health. I feel bound, therefore in considelation of
the benefits I hare received from the medicine,lo . te.
commend it to other; laboring under similar afflic

Mr. IL E. Sellers—F o r several years I was the
subj iet of a most unyielding attack of the Liver
complaint. It would he useless for me to attempt
to give you an account offny suffering, as it cou!d
only be felt, not describ,d. But such was the se-
verity of my disease, that for days and weeks to.
g-itlier, I knew not whether I should ever_recov 7 ,
er my usual heal.h.
I continued in this wretched condition, until the
' I Christian Advocate fell into my hand and upon
comparing, the symptoms of a diseased •liver as
given in the advertisement ss ith my own, i-found
that they corresponded in nearly every . particular. --
IFrom that circumstance I a as induced to try year
justly popular Liver Pills, and you may be area
; red that it is with the greatest pleasure that I in
j form you that the Liver Pills have been of more
service to me than all other remedies I have ever
used, and I now enjoy better health than I have
done fur the last eight years.
