Them.?If you see a lady and gen?
tleman disagree upon trifling occa?
sions, or correcting each other in
company, you may be assured they
have tied the*matrimonial noose.
If you Bee a silent pair in a car
or stage, lolling carelessly, one at
each window, without seeming to
know they have a companion, the
sign is infallible.
If yott see a lady drop her glovo,
and a gentleman by the side of her
kindly telling her to pick it up, you
need not hesitate in forming your
opinion.
"If you meet a couple in the
fields, the gentleman twenty yards

If you see a lady whose beauty
and accomplishments attract the
attention of every lady and gentle?
man in the room but one, you can
have no difficulty in determining
their relationship to each other?
the one is her husband.
If you see a gentleman particu?
larly courteous, obliging and good
matured, relaxing into smiles, say?
ing sharp things, and toying with
every pretty woman in the room,
excepting one, to whom he appears
particularly cold and formal, and is
unreasonably cross-?who that one.
is nobody can be at a loss to dis?
cover.
If you see an old couple jarring,
checking and thwarting each other,
differing ih opinion before the opi?
nion .is expressed, eternally antici?
pating and breaking the thread of
eaoh other's discourse, yet using
kind words, like honey bubbles
floating on vinegar, which, are soon
overwhelmed by a preponderance
of the fluid; they are, to all intents,
man an ? wife! it is impossible to
be mistaken.
The rules above quoted are laid
down as infallible ? just interpre?
tation?they may be resorted to
with con fid once; they are upon un?
erring principles, and deducted
from every day experience.
The tobacco crop of the States
South and West of Pennsylvania is
sot down as having been 29-1,000
hogsheads in the year 1873, and
114,000 hogsheads in 1874, in re?
spect to which it is, observed that
the prospect of so large a reduction
in 1874 naturally: led to an active
speculation, and prices, in a very
short time, advanced fully 100 per
cent., which has been maintained
to the present, time, the price of
Kentucky leaf tobacco having been
14 to 25 cents per ponnd April 30,
1875, as against 7$ to 12 cents per
pound May 1, 1874, which extraor ?
dinary advance checked exports,
and reduced purchases by home
manufacturers to the lowest limits.
This reduction in the crop was
caused by the prolonged drought.
In 1873, Kentucky produced 118,
000 hogsheads, and in 1874, only
30,000. In 1873, Virginia produced
02,300 hogsheads, and in 1874 only
35,000. In 1873, Ohio produced
25,800 hogsheads, and in 1874 only
4,000. Indiana and Illinois de?
clined from 37,000 to 10.000, and
Missouri from 20,000 to 10,000.
Maryland, suffered less than any,
only declining from 31,500 to 25,
000. The exports of leaf tobacco
this year -have been 20,087 hogs?
heads, (as against 33,355 hogsheads
in the'.same time last year. The

The symptoms of Liver Comphiint'are
uneasiness und puin in the aide. Somn
times the puin is in the shoulder, nnd is
mistaken for rheumatism. The stomach
is affected with loss of appetite and sick?
ness, bowels in general costive, and
sometimes alternating with lax. The
bead is troubled with puin, and dull,
heavy sensation, considerable loss ot
memory, accompiuiicd with painful sen?
sation of having left undone* something
which ought to have been done. Often
complaining of weakness, debility and
low spirits. Sometimes many of the
above symptoms attend tho disease, and
at other times, very few of them; but the
Liver is generally the organ moat in?
volved.
SIMMONS' LIVER REGULATOR!
Vor all Diseases of the Liver, Stomach siml Spleen !
IT is evidently a Family Medicine, und by being kept ready for im
mcdiute resort, will save many uil hour of suffering, and many n
? dollar in time and doctors' bills.
After forty years' trial, it is still receiving the most unqualified tecti
inouiuls of its virtues from persons of the highest character r.ud re?
sponsibility. Kminent physicians commend it us the most
UFFECTU A L SI? KCIFIC
for Constipation, Hbadacrb, Pain in the Shoulders. Dizziness. Sour
Stomach, hud taste in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpitation of tho
Heart, Puin in the region of the Kidneys. Despondency, Oloois und
forebodings of evil: all of which are tho offspring of a diseased Liver.
If you feel Dull, Drowsy, Debilitated, kave frequent headache,
Mouth tastes budly, poor Appetite anil Tnngxe Coated, you arc suffer?
ing from Torpid Liver, or ??Biliousness," and nothing will cure you so
upcedily and permanently.
The Liver, tho largest organ in the body, is generally the sent of the
disease, nnd if not Regulated in time, great suffering, wretchedness
and DEATH will ensue.
Armed with this ANTIDOTE, nil climates and changes of wuter and
food may be faced without fear. As a reinedv in MALARIOUS
