Scro0lla, or Kings Evil,

is a constitutional disease, corruption of the
blood by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
peryades the whole body, and may burst out
"a disease on any part of it. No organ is free
IT IN its attacks, nor is there one which 1t may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is variously
caused by mcrcurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food impure air, filth
AID filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the yenercal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
stitution, descending "from parents to children
un,o the third and fourth generation; indeed,
J. s,rms TO be the rod Of Him who says, Il
w,ll visit the iniQuites Of TIC fathers upon

It's effects commence by deposition from the
nJol " corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, IN
u iarEs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubcrrlcs in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, erupti0ns or sores. This foul COR
rupSicn, which genders in the blood, depresseS
the energies of life, So that scrofulOus conshtu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants but they have far less power to With
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
OuentIy,. vast numbers perish by disorders
which. although not scrofulous III their nature,
ere 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 scrofulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases Of the liver, kidneys, BRAN,
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
Onequarter of all our people are scrotulous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking IN
lection, and their health is undermined by it.

as they required, the adventures were
enabled to discover the track of their
predecessors, and follow up the trail ac-
curately, meeting at intervals the mourn
full traces of their last journey from the
abandoned ships across tine desolatc re-
gons of snow and ice.
The records found by Captain McClin-
took at Point Victory, full account of
which we published yesterday, establish
the fact beyond question that Sir John
Franklin died in the midst of his faith
ful companions, on the 1lth of June,
1917, and that the ships were abandoned
ten months later, on the 22d of April,
1913, more than eleven years ago. Turn
ing their faces southwark, the surviving
adventures, numbering hundred and
five out of the original hundred and
twenty-nine, commenced their march
over the ice towards a region where they
expected to find deer shooting, and
doubtless, also, with a view TO carry out,
if possible, the object of the expedition,
by ascending Fish river. All the traces
found of them intimate that they were
not short Of provisions, ammunition or
fuel; for, in or around every cairn were
evidences of abundance; yet they drop
ped away on that desolate path, one after
the other, until the last one perished.-
The skeletons of some were found living
iE boats, others bleached upon the SHOWS,
surrounded by the relics of home and
friends. How long they held out against
the terrors of their situation after the 25th
of April, 1914, the date of the record,
will never be known: enough, they per-
ished one by one, and they have moulder-
ed where they fell, in the midst of 81
eleven winters. SHOWS OF
The fate of these gallant men, as now
ascertained, bears out the assertions which
DR.. Rae made after his search in 1854,
that Sir John Franklin and his crew were
not the victims of Esquimaux treachery,
but had probably taken course to the
southwark over the ice, and perished on
the journey. All uncertainty as to their
fate being now set at rest, it is presumable
that the expedition of the Fox is indeed
the final one to the Arctic regions. With
the discovery of the Northwest Passage
or open sea by Capt. Mcclure came also
the conviction that it was impracticable
for purposes of navigation. No discov-
cries have since been made to afford any
hope of better results from Arctic explo-
rations, and we trust that the solution of
this twelve years mystery will be the sig
nal to abandon all further attempts de-
manding so heavy sacrifice of gallant
and chiyalrous lives.-N Y. Herald.

What New Orleans Fireman
can Do.

For small city, we thought Mobile
had some as active firemen as could be
found anywhere. But they are ahead of
us in New Orleans. At a recent fire in
Tchoupitoulas street. in that city, Mr..
Jules DreuX, a member of one of the
hook and ladder companies, saved him
self by jumping from the fourth story of
a burning brick building; the other three
stories having burned away-walls and all
some two hours before, and left the
fourth story retaining its position simply
by force OF habit. A gentleman from the
Crescent city, who was an eye witness to
the miraculous feat. says that when Mr..
Dreux saw all hopes of getting down
stairs in the ordinary way were cut Oft,
he took running start for a window,
fronting on Tchoupitoulas street, and
went through sash and all. In his swift
descent, and when he had nearly reached

Moderate Drinking.

Let no man say, when he thinks of a
drunkard, broken in health and spoiled
in intellect, 81 can never fall So" He
thought as little of falling in his earlier
years. The promise of his youth was as
bright as yours, and even after he began
his downward course, he was as unsuspi-
cious as the frmest around him, and
would repel as Indignantly the adomni-
ton to beware of intemperance. The
danger of this vice lies in its almost i'm
perceptible approach. Few who perish
by it have by its first access. Youth does
not suspect drukenness in the sparkling
beverag ge which quickens all its suscepti-
bilities of joy. The invalid does not see
it in the cordial which gives new tone to
his debilitated organs. The man OF
thoughts and genius detects no palsying
poison in the draught which seems a
spring of inspiration to intellect and i'm

would be more pro yylDiied to the known
means of the debtor, both as regards
amount and time. The expenses attend
ing the collection of debts are very great
and absorb large portion of the profit.
In cases of failures among the dealers,
their debtors are, as it is well known, apt
to take advantage, and delay, if not alto
gether refuse payment of their debts
The law is resorted to by them for its eva
sion. The moral effect of this proposed
abolition of the law to compel payment
OF debts, which it does so imperfectly and
at so great an expense of money and
time, would be very great.
1t would be felt by all traders, that to
obtain any credit reputation for charac-
ter must first be obtained, and constant
ly maintained. II would also be felt by
the seller that it would not answer to
tempt buyers too much. Besides, cash
transactions would increase and specula-
tive dealings diminish. The evasion of

debts is very easy to dishonest men, aid
ed by professional advice; and numerous
instances abound Of men having become
rich, by running largely into debt, put
ting their property so acquired out of
reach, and setting all laws at Defiance
Rich men abound whose property is all
settled on their wives, or held in trust for
them by others, which, in the absence of
bankrupt law, cannot be reached.
Indeed, if no law existed to enforce
payments of debts, men would look into
the moral habits of their debtors before
trusting and not afterwards. They would
not be so ready to seduce, by illicit means,
any set OF men to make purchare. Men
