The bill lor the distribution of the public
lands among the States, for educational and
other purpose#, known as Bennett's Land Bill,
being the special order of the day, was taken

Mr. Hiester here moved to go into Commit
tee, which motion prevailing, Mr. Chandler
took the ohair, and Mr Harris, of Mississippi,
proost'ded to finish his speech, in opposition to
the Nebraska-Kansas bill, oommenoed on Mon
Ivfr. Harris said he was instructed to vote for
this bill, but that was when it was on the
wing! He might be instructed to step acrow
the Mississippi river at its souroe, and not be
hound to obey the instruction where it expauds
into a sea.
Mr. Harris reviewed and analyzed the bill,
and was especially severe upon the oilv, cheat
ing interpolations respecting the Missouri
Compromise, the neither enacting nor prohib
iting Slavery, the absurd permission to a State
or Territory to keep Slavery in or out, as it
pleases.
He ilenoiuioed tho Badger proviso, and said
it was a Wilmot Proviso. It repealed what
ever of law thero was in the Territories, and
left slavery, without legal protection thero
And where is slavery, without special legisla
tive authority? The Constitution does not,
under the decisions of the Supreme Court, cre
ate or establish it. In a state of nature^ it ha?
no existenoe. The bill before us permits the
people to prohibit or establish slavery. Under
if, the white man may make a slave of the
black man; or, the black man may prove vic
torious, and enslave the white! Nothing is de
fined.
Mr. Hiester followed in an elaborate speech,
also in opposition to this bill, and oonteuding
that it would violate our faith alike with the
Indian, as pledged in our treaties, and as
pledged between ourselves in the Missouri
Compromise.

L1VKK COMPLAINT.
Q^" This dangerous and often fatal disease bad
long battled the wkill of the mort eminent physician*,
when the discovery of Dr. MoLane'a Liver P.tin solved
the diffioulty, and prevented to the world tke great
i Specijic for that ooiuplioatod malady, which baa at
1 tuinod such widely spread celobrity for its certainty
of cure. This successful remedy was the result of
many years' study, in which the symptoms were nar
rowly observed, and arc thus doscribed by the Doc
tor himself:
" Symptoms of a Diurnal Liver.?Pain in the
right side, and sometimes in the left, under the edge
of the ribs?the patiunt being rarely able to lie on the
left; pain loinetimee under t'^e shoulder-blad-?, fre
quently extending to the top of the shoulder?often
mistaken for rheumatism in the arm; sickness of
stomach, and loss of appetite; bowels mostly costive,
but sometimes alternate with lax; dull, heavy sensa
tion in the back part of the head; loss of memory,
with uneasiness of having neglected something; some
times dry cough; weariness and debility; nervous
irritability ; feet cold or burning, and prickly sensa
tion of skin; low spirits, lassitude, with disinclina
tion to exercise, although satisfied it would be ben
eficial. In fact, patient distrusts every remedy."
Uave you any or all of these symptoms ? If so,
you will llnd a certain remedy in Dr. MoLaue's Pills

LANE'S CELEBRATED LIVER PILLS, and take

to tho wearer, but often one of extremo torture, this
is caused by the bungling manner in which tho hoot
is fitted to the foot Mr. Jannoy has devoted much
of his time in studying the construction of the human
foot, in order to ascertain how a boot should bo cot
and fitted, that will be perfectly easy to all parts of
