LIVER COMPLAINT. This disease is discovered by a fixed ob tuse pain and weight in the right side under the short ribs; attended with heat, uneasi ness about the pit of the stomach;—there is in the right side also a distension—the patient loses his appetite and becomes sick and trou ble with vomiting. The tongue becomes rough and black, countenance changes to a pale or citron color or yellow, like those ;af flicted with jaudice—difficulty of breathing, disturbed rest, attended with dry caugh, dif ficulty of laying on the left side—the oody becomes weak, and finally the'disease termi nates into another of a more serious nature, which in all probability is far beyond the power of human skill. Dr Harlich's com• pound tonic strengthening and German ape rient pills, if taken at the commencement of this disease, will check it, and by continu ing the use of the medicine a few weeks, a perfect cure cure will be performed. Thou sands can testily to this fact.

This disease often originates frcm a hab of overloading or distending the stomach by excessive eating or drinking, or very protrac ted periods of fasting, an indolent nr seden- , tory life, in which no e7,ercise is afforded to the muscular fibres or mental faculties, fear grief, and deep anxiety, taken to o frequent ly string purgingmedicnies, tly,entery, mis lcartiages, intermittent and syasmodic affec ti of the stomach and bowels; the nio ,immon of the lath r causes are late hour, and the too frequent use of spiritnos liquor From the Boston Chronicle, Jan. 10 We see by an advertisement in anoth er column that Messrs. Comstock & co., the American Agents for Oldridge's Balm of Columbia, have deputies to sell that ar rticle in Boston and elsewhere. lie know a lady of this city whose hair was so near ly gone as to expose entirely her phrenol ogical develooments, which, considering that they betokened a most amiable dispo sition, was not in reality very unfortunate Nevertheless she mourned the loss of locks that she had worn, and after a year's fruitless resort to miscalled resto ratives, purchased; some months ago, a bottle or two of Oldrulge's Balm, and she has now ringlets in rich profusion, glossy, and of raven blackness. We are not puf fing, none of the comodity has been sent to us, and indeed, we do not want any, for though we were obliged to wear a wig a year ago, we have now, though its vir tue, hair enough, and of a passable quali ty, of our own.

We would prefer the Granny of 1111 p Bend, For in times of trouble, she always was a friend. ii HOLE No. ur SEASON This is the wet season in which. there is no degree of comparison, being by far the wettest experienced for some years. The thirsty old growlers who ere while spoke in rebellious tones against the course of events, and watered their crisp ed up cabbage plants with despithdirg tears, are now in ectasies. The fottn.. tains of their griefs are closed, and the really liquid is reserved to moisten their cheeks at the tale of human wo. Vegetation is springing forward with a growth only excelled by .lonahli gourd, or the manufacture of great men of pigmies; and pens and pumpkins are already re joicing in their destined fates of hop-in john, and unthauksgiving pies. The or ange has assumed a darker hue, a fuller roundness, betokening the gorg eous look ofgold which will soon invest it. The mul. ticaulis spreads its ample leaf—alas! for human foresight, no longer the regenera ter of an empty pocket and broken hopes —but waves its brilliant foliage unheeded by the passing eye ; or if it is, to be look ed upon as a "cumberer of the ground." Political aspirants might learn a salutary lesson from this tree ; and the clergy might write a homily upon the uncertain , . ty of sublunary events, in the fate which morns sustained in the market, with equal benefit. Wet, wet, wet! Every thinglit wets The pow ler horn is choked by the aeon of its contents ; the scud in tlie - 1,.E.e 'glass is still, and Loco I'ocas are dump and moist, and refuse to give light under Any friction. The beautiful ringlets of eit little girls are all wet, and hung as Stiiight as though life had to them no twist—whilst our riper beauties pout and waste their sweetness in a vain effort to produce a curl with heated tongs and gum water. Even the "little pigs" who erst, "Slept with their tails curled up," now enjoy the delights of repose, with that graceful ornament “Stuck out a feet.” Crash! there gses a pane of glass, brcke by a young urchin pressing his nose against it, in his ambitious wish of seeing h dog tight. .Screnn, and squall, the ROI ad ; venturer in petticoats has gotten its ' frock bedrizzled and daubed with mud," and wanting ballast, broke his nose. Then comes the sweet condelcuce of a mother's love--a slice of the little he ro is well again. Damp! every thing is damp—the walls, boots, and books ; and as we nightly turn over our bible, the leaves are sure to stick, and our Christian forbearance is doubly taxed by the weather.— Tattler . STAGE MANIACS There b u t none perhaps mare pitiabh! than stage lu nacy. Young gentlemen %%lid set at nought the advice of papas and mamitl, to strut and fret upon the stage of some pri• vatelheatre, in all the glory of rouge and tinsel, are fitter subjects for a lunatic as cylum than many a poor devil who finds his way there through the kind attention of interested relatives. How many of these theatrical aspirants are as illiterate as they are presumptuous? We can't tell the exact number, but our experience convinces us that at least five out of every ten know not the difference between a B and a bull's foot.
