Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

il a constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood BY which this fluid becomes vttiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervades the whole body, aud may burst out
IN disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there ono which It may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is vuriously
caused by mcrcurial disease, low living dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices. and,
above all, by the venercal infection. What
ever he its origin, it is hereditary i'll the con-
stitution, descending a. from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation !" indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, a."
viii visit the iniquities Of the fathers upon
,le.s oh;ldren."
II. effects commence by deposition from Tie
hood Of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
che lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
belcles in the glands, swellings; ald on
the surface, erupiions or sores. This foul cor
iuption, which gcnder7 in the blood, depresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far les power to with
stand the attacks Of other diseases conse-
queutlv, vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not sorofulous in their nature
are still rendered fatal by this faint IN the
system. Most Of the consumption which de
climates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrotulous contamination and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and indeed, of all the organs, arise from OF
arc aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter Of all our people are scrofulous
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
iccti0u, and their health is undermined by it.

the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vixorate it by healthy food and exercise.
