Scrofula, or ing''s Evil,

is constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiatcd,
weak, and poor. Being i'll the circulation, it
pcrvadcs the whole body, and may burst out
i'll disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrotlllous taint is variou<ly
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 vcnercal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary i'll the
stitution, descending " from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation - indeed.
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, 81
will visit the iniquties of the fathers upon
their children
Its effects commence by dcpo ition from the
blood of corrupt or ulccrous matter, which, III
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubcrclcs; i'll the glands, swelling> and
the surface, eruptions sores. This foul cor
ruption, which gcntlers i'll the blood, deprcsscs
the energies of life, so that scrolIlous constiu-
tions not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plat>, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
qucntly vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scroftlouS i'll their nature,
arc still rendered fatal by this tant i'll the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
cimatcs the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofuous contamination and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are Scrofulous :;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fiction, and their health is undermined by it.
TO cleanse it from the system we must rcnovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such medicine we supply i'll

Compound Extract CT SarsapariIla,

the most cffectual remedy which the medical
skill of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malatly. 1t is com
bined from the most active remcdials that have
been discovered for the cxpurgation of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it should be employed for the cure of
not only Scroft,la. but also those other affec-
tons which arise from it, such as ERUPTIvE
and SKIN DISEASES, ST. ANTHoNY's FIRE,
ROSE, or ERysIrELAs, pIMrLEs, PusruLEs,
BLoTcIlEs, BLA1Ns and BoIIs, TuMoHs, TETrEl,

RMEuMATISM, SyrHILlrIc and MEncuHIAL DIS

indeed, ALI. COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM EITIA-
TED OR IMruRE BLOOD. The popular belief
i'll d" impmity ofMe blood" is founded i'll truth,
for scrofula is degeneration of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa-
rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid,
without which sound health is impossible in
contaminated constitutions.

Ague Cure,

Remittcnt Fever, chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, arnu Bilious Fevers, indeed
for the whole class of diseases Origi ginat-
ing in hillary deranSemcnt, caused by
the Malaria of Miasmntic Countries.
We are enabled here to offer the community a
remedy which, while it cures the above complaints
with certainty, is still perfectly harmless in any
quantity. Such remedy is invaluable in districts
where these affecting disorders prevail. This
"CuRE" cXpels the miasmatic poison of FEVER
AND AGUE from the system, and prevents the de-
yelopment of the disease, if taken the first ap-
proach of its premonitory symptoms. Itisnot only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
of complaints, but also the cheapest. The large
quantity supply for dollar brings it within the
reach of every body and i'll bilious districts where
FEVER AND AGUE prevails, every body should
have it and use it freely both for cure and protcc
ton. A great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
of Intermttcnts is that it contains no Quinine
or mineral, consequently it produces quinism
other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu-
ton. Those cured by it left healthy as if
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of
the miasmatic poison. great variety Of disor-
dcrs arise from its irritation, among which are
Nem0lgin, Rheumatism, Gom, Ueddache, Blind
ness, Ioothache, Ea''uche, CatnyTh, Aahma, I;0l-
ics, Pain Ia tie Boacrks, (oEc, Paralysis and De-
ramgcn,cnt of the Stomach, all of which, when
originating in this cause put on the intermittent
tyy,e, or become periodical. This CURE" expels
the poison from the blood and consequently cures
them all alike. 1t is an invaluable protection TO
Immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing i'll the maariOus districts If taken occa-
sionaliy or daily while exposed to the infection,
that will be excrctcd from the system, and cannot
accumulate in sufficient quantity to rpcn into dis
ease. Hence it is even more valuable for protec-
ton than cure, and few will suffer from Inter
mittcnts if they avail themselves of the protection
this remedy affords.

CIVIL SIDE.-Newman Us. Ball-Snbmitted
by Judge Collins--to recover debt origin
ally due from one Riddle, and which it was
alleged the defendant had assumed to pay.
The Court held the defendant could be
liable for the debt of another only on one
principle-that known as novation in the
civil law-that is, that the original debt had
been extinguished, for If it still subsisted
after new promise, the promise must be in
writing and for a consideration, or il would
be void. The evidence in this case showed
that the old debt was not extinguished.
Judgment for defendant.
Judge Carter adjourned his branch of the
Court until the 18th inst.

panneled before Judge Collins. The names

Mistaken Ideas of the American Desert
Its Richness and Future Agricultural I'm.


Mistaken Ideas of the American Desert
Its Richness and Future Agricultural I'M
pOrtnnce.
The New Orleans Pieagune, of late date,
has the following;
The opinion has lately obtained considera-
BILE currency that a very large tract of coun-
try west of organized States, and extending
southwark to Mexico, can never be occupied
by permanent residents. The name of the
American Desert has come to be regarded as
applied to that Territory, because-like the
Sahara, in Africa - it affords sustenance
neither to man nor beast, but is a waste,
where the productive forces of nature are in
sufficient TO sustain animated life.
This idea is without foundation. We have
on this Continent no Desert in the sense in
which the word is applied to the barren re-
gions of the Old World.
The region of country extending eastward
from the base of the Rocky Mountains, is
destined in the future to become the great
stock-growing dependence of the Continent.
Before civilized men had penetrated its wilds,
these vast plains were covered with immense
herds of wild animals. They were the fruit
ful hunting grounds of the aborigines of the
country The countless multitude of buffalo,
deer, and kindred animals, found no want OF
subsistence even though they increased with
each succeeding year.
We have no reason to doubt that the herds
men of q future day will cover these nominal
desert plains with stock that in numbers will
exceed the untamed herds which have roamed
over them. The increase of population in the
Eastern, Middle and Western States, will ulti-
mately force stock-raising further West. The
great American desert seems to have been
designed by nature for our future herdsmen.
No where is an entire absence of grass to be
found. Absolute barrenness exists only in
isolated spots, while scattered over the entire
area are spots of fertility and beauty almost
without parallel.
The further we progress southwark on this
belt of land the smaller the area that is not
well adapted TO the ordinary purposes of the
agriculturist. The difference between the
arabic lands along the line of 4lo and 800 is
| 202 miles.
When the Pacific Railroad shall have
crossed this region, and the science of agri.
| culture brings its resources to bear upon this
region, scarcely doubt can be entertained
that large portion Of what is now regarded
as worthless barren will prove to be pos
sessed of the highest productive energy
Late Investigations of the constituents of the
| soil of this region, and the means for awaken.
| ing fertility which exists, have dissipated
many of the theories which for years have
been adopted as true, and been a serious OBJ
stacle to the construction of a national high
way from the Atlantic to the Pacific, across
the continent.
