Perfect Cure for sorofula.

The Cincinnati Commercial has the fol-
lowing communication from the well known
Nicholas Longworth, the pioneer settler Of
that city, and one of the most truthful of
lis citizens:
All the papers | had, giving the cure
for scrofula, have been distributed to per-
sons sending for the remedy. | have never
heard of a case where it did not effect Z
speedy cure, and il can in no case do Al
Injury. In several instances where it la.
been applied to old sores, it has speed ,
effected certain cures. Put one ounce o.
aqua forts in bowl or saucer; drop IN i
two copper cents; it will etfervesce-leave
the cents III; when the effervescense ceas-
es, and 2 ounces of strong vinegar The
fluid will be dark green color. 1t should
and will smart. If too severe, put in a
little rain water. Apply it to the sore
morning and evening, with soft brush OF
rag; before applying it, wash the sore with
water.
It's first application known to me was a
poor girl, sent to our city from Memphis.
Tenn, to have her leg cut off, as it was
feared she might not live long enough to
have it cut off in that hot climate. She
WAS refused adinittanee TO the poor house,
and vas lying OH the sidewalk, AS she could
not even stand up. From her knee to her
foot, one third of the flesh was gone. and
all the skin, except strip about two in
ches wide. She vas laid on bed, and
the remedy placed on a chair by it. She
could not RAISE up and apply it. In a
few days her peace of mind returned, and
she declared it was getting well. 1t was
supposed it was relief from pain only
but when examined, flesh was found grow
ing, and skin over it, She WAS soon run
ming about and would work, which delay
ed the entire cure, leaving small sore,
which was in d few months entirely heal
ed.
A Girl with scrofaia in her neck, having
large open hole III her neck, and deemed
inctlrable, cafne, one month after, entirely

At this opportune moment the speech
of Seward fell on the tender hearts of the
anti slavery hosts like drops Of flame, and
re-estabished their faith in the Republl-
can organization. H boldly took the
ground that we were engaged in strug-
Gle with the Slave Power, that was not to
he Quoted by the settlement of the Kan
sas question-that il was a war between
Freedom and Slavery, that must continue
until one shall yield, and pledged himself
and so far as he was authorized to speak
for the Republican party, to fidelity for the
war. This war he proposed to wage in a
strictly constitutional manner, but unlike
Buchanan, he took particular pains to say
that ours was constitution Of Freedom,
instead Of Slavery He was for making
the distinction broad between us and the
Administration as well as between lis and
the Squatter Sovereignty platform of
Douglas, and so eIevating the di>li ctive
principles of the Republican party, that
all might see they we're striving for sub
stance instead of shadows.
The effect was electric, and is now APP
parent to all. The Geirit Smith move
ment, much of ii, ensued to the benefit Of
the Republican party, the Know Nothing
faction collapsed, while many hunest Dem
ocrats took hold with will, and aided To
elect the Congressional ticket by 10000
majority.
We speak of these things to show that
the inass Of the people are far i'll advance
IF the trading, compromising politicians
who aspire to lead them, and that when
leading, and eminent Republicans, evince
an abiding faith in the real issues of the
strife, t, at they are sustained with alacri-
ty. From THE, let us learn how to con
