j. constitutional disease, corruption OF the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vhiated,
weak, and poor. Being III the circulation, it
pcrvades the whole body, and may hurst out
IN disease on any part Of it. No oigan is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is vaiiou~ly
caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the venereal Infection What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
stituton, descending d" from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation :" indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says "
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children"
H. effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter. which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs is termed
tdbercles in the glands, swellings; and ON
the surface, cruptions or sores. This foul con
rupton, which genders in the blood, depresseS
the energies of life so that scrofulous constitu-
lions not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases conse-
quently, vast numbers perish by III sorders
which, although not scrotrioi,s ia then r7tnfe,
are still rendered fatal by this faint IA the

GyrrlSG ABOARD IN A HURRy.-A
laughable incident occurred yesterday
morning, at the Lincoln Square stationon
the Worcester and Nashua Railroad. a
traveller bound to Burlington, VT, where
he had business of Importance to transact
had rested over night, with his wife, at
the Nashua Hotel, Immediately opposite
the station, in order to he sure to hit the
morning train, which leaves at an early
hour.
Yesterday morning the traveller was
sleepy. His lady had arisen, awakened
him. dressed herself, and gone down to
breakfast, expecting her lord to follow her
without delay. While eating hastily and
scolding mentally, in view of the husbands
hardness, she heard the ringing Of the
bell. Rushing frantically up stairs her
h orror may be imagined, when, on open
ing the bedroom door, snore from the
conjugal sluggard saluted her ear.
A slight scream and rough shake
awoke him. He heard the bell Pulling
on his boots he hastily gathered in his
arms the rest of his attire, and pushing
the lady before him down stairs, put fol
the train at 2:40 gait, dressed only ii
boots and a flannel shirt The twain
reached the train.-Throwing all but hi
shirt upon the platform, the lady hurried
| ly sought to obtain tickets at the of1ce
while the husband struggled to Undue him
self with his No,l garment. While
was yet huttering over his head, the bel
again rang maliciously, and off starte'
the train. The unfortunate entered tn
car, his flesh having dimped, gooss-lik
appearance, while his blushing lady
spread out her crinoline like the sacre'
veil of Charity, converted herself into
screen that his nakedness light be hiddel
from his fellow -travcll ers.- Worcestc

Let off in one tremendous kiss
What's that ?" the startled master cries

"wath William Width, if you pleaihe--

With frown to make statue thrill,
The master thundere j, " Hither, Will"
Like wretch o'ertaken in his track
With stolen chattels on his back
Will hung his head in fear and shame,
And to the awful presence came
A great, green, bashful simpleton'
The butt of all good-natured fun
With smile suppressed, and birch appraised

The "Old Dominion" Tea Pot is made on the
