Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated.
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it NAV
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is yariously
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 v~enereal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
sttution, 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 niquities of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence BY deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and On
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu-
tons 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 disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this faint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
cimates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous 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 s~crofulous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fiction, and their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system We must renovate
the blood by an alternative medicine, and in
visorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such a medicine we supply in

Two forms of petitions to Congress
n praying for the repeal of the Fugitive
Slave Act, and the other asking for the ex-
t%inction of slavery where Congress has ex-
elusive jurisdiction-are being circulated
in Ashtabula county, and a Mr.. A. D.
Odds says it is thought by "many of the
friends of freedom" hat it is Exceedingly
desirable that these petitions be numerous
ly signed and forwarded to Congress" 1t
is not expected that the Fugitive Slave
Act will be repealed, or slavery abolished
as aforesaid, but we are told that it "will
do good" to have a mighty discussion of
these matters in Congress. They are
afraid up in Ashtabula that the usual dis
cussion of tie negro will not take place at
Washington this winter. They are appre-
hensive of quiet. In this they are singu-
lar. But they need not be alarmed. The
South Carolina Representatives will &C.
commodate Ashtabula. They will repre-
sent the immediate wishes of "the earn
est anti-slavery men of each township of
old Ashtabula" better, perhaps, than the
Representatives of Ohio. We suppose
nearly all the Republican Congressman
from Ohio would be glad to 60 to work at
the practical public business decently in Or
der. But there is mo reason for "the friends
of freedom" in the Northeast to be alarm
ed. There will be a mott satisfactory row

E-The States that are depended upon
by the Secessionists to form the Southern
Confederacy are South Carolina, Georgia,
Alabama, Florida, and Mississippi. The
following are the annual Postofice receipts
and expenditures of those States, as shown
by the latests official figures.
South Carolina-Receipts, S1O7,536;

We do not mean by publishing these
figures. that it is desirable that these States
should 90 out of the Union. We believe
that every State in the Union is of value
to the Union. But it is worth while TO
remind the secessionists that they should
look well to their profit and loss account
with the Union, and that if they do SO,
thew will find in the States named above,
that whereas they pay three cents postage
on each of their letters, the cost OF the
Union is nine cents. We Of the Union

Compound Extract Of SarSaparilla,

the most %effectual remedy which the medical
skill of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malady. 1t is COM
bined from the most active remedials that have
been discovered for the expurgation 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 Scrofula, but also those other affec-
tons which arise from it, such as ERuPTIvE
and SKIN DISEASES, ST.. ANrnoNY's FIRE,
RosE, or ERYsIPELAs, PIMPLEs, PusTULEs,

indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITA
TED OR IMPURE BLOOD. The popular belief
in "in,punity Of the blood" is founded in truth,
for s~crofula is a 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.

OUTRAeEs UPON NORTHERN MEN.-The
various statements which are to be found
in all the papers of the great wrongs and
outrages committed at the South upon
Northern men are borne out,by facts which
we find in the papers from that quarter
The Cincinnati Commercially view of these
facts asks.where are these things to end ?
Are we to surrender the distinction of be-
ing a free country? Shall we quietly see
established and fortified in our midst a
worse than Austrian despotism? Are we
to behold an American inquisition, having
its head quarters in the capitals of the
South, and its ramifcation in every village,
which, like the Revolutionary Tribunal of
Fouquier Tinville and Robespierre, shall
establish one universal reign of %terrorin our
landG All the rights and privileges of
American citizenship to 60 for nothing, and
all our constitutional guarantees to be
trampled pell-mell under foot? Are We
to understand, that the privileges and i'm
munnities of citizens are henceforth annull-
ed, so far as a part of the States are con-
cerned, and that if we go there, we have
got to hold our personal security and our
opinions at the dictation of a mob?
If these are the liberties of American
citizens, then they are not worth preserv-
ing. If these things are continue, no mar
with a spark of manhood in him will ever
again hold up his head in pride, when he
hears the name of the United States of
America. He will rather hang his head
in shame and sorrow that the only Rebuff
lie on the globe has gone backward-that
that intolerance and fanaticism have tri-
umphed over liberty and intelligence
that American citizenship is become a
mockery, and American freedom a name.

I-nfatuation of the South.

The South Carolina Mercury has put
forth a savage article on the readiness Of
South Carolina 10 meet force with force.
1t expects q deuunciation of secession in
the Presidents Message, but says the
message will be nothing" 1t further
says:
The real matter-the only matter foE con-
cern-will be the action of Congress In
giving him the power, by another Force
bill, to draw the sword against a seeding
State. BIZ the end of January, fire States
wM probably hare secededtrom the Union.
This wiH giipe ham such an abundance OF
Noodto shed that he wiM hardly undertake
the enterprise of coercion. He will pre-
sent the spectacle of bloody ~intents, with
a fraternai and loving ~sensibility, which
will not allow him to enforce them. We
certainly deprecate war with the northern
people through the general government;
but Mr.. Buchanan may be assured that the
first attempt, in any form to coerce South
Carolina into submission to a government
she has thrown of, will be considered wal.
He may call it by what name be pleases,
but the sword wiH then Be the final and
only ar6itsr between as!
What blind infatuation possesses the
writers of such things as the above. If
force be resorted to, (which Heaven forbid,)
the handful of soldiery in South Carolina
could be crushed out in tw~enty-four hours
after the arrival off the coasts of vessels
from the North. The white population of
South Carolina in 1850 was 274,563.-
Suppose the present population to be $780,
600. One-seventh of these-the usual av-
erage-or 1887, are voters. Take from
this number all the old, the infrm, disa-
bled, and that large class who would new
er be found ready to do fighting or service,
and take the further reduction of the Un-
ion conservative party and the fighting
men would not number more than 10000.
And with this army she defies the General
Government and all the forces at its COM
mand!
