Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

IS constitutional disease, corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes yitiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervades 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 scrofulous taint is varou~ly
caused by ncrcurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure ar, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the vcncrcal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
stitution, descending " from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation; indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, II
will visit the iniquitics of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, III
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubcrcles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptons or sores. This foul cor
rupton, which genders i'll the blood, dcpresses
the energies Of life, SO that scrofulols 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 screfulous III their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this tant i'll the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
i'll 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 scrofulous !;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fection, and their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such medicine we supply in

Life is made up Of little acts. Al
though seeming everso small at tire time,
the future is big with the influence each
little act will have upon the generations
that are to follow. Have you ever
watched an icicle as it formed? You
noticed how it froze, one drop at a time,
until it was foot long or more If the
water was clean, the icicle remained clear,
and sparklcd brightly in the sun; but if
the water was but slightly muddy, the
icicle looked foul, and its beauty was
spoiled. just SO our characters are
forming one little thought, or feeling
at time adds its influence. If each
thought is pure and right, the soul will
be lovely, and will sparkle with happi-
ness; but if impure and wrong, there will
be final dcformity and wretchedness.

Ague Cure,
TOR TIE SPEEDY CURE OF

Intermittent Fever, or Fever and A Asue.
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb

Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed
for the whole class of diseases orisinnt-
ing in hillary derangcment, caused by
the Malaria of Miasmatie Countries.
remedy which, while it cures the above complaints
with certainty, is still perfectly harmless i'll any
quantity. Such a remedy is Invaluable in districts
where these affecting disorders prevail. This
"CURE" eXpels the miasmatic poison of FEVER
AND AGuE from the system and prevents the de-
vclopmcnt of the disease, if taken on the first APP
proach of its prclnontory symptoms. Its not 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 in bilious districts, where
FEVER AND AGCE prevails, every body should
have it and it freely both for cure and protcc-
ton. great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure of Intermittents is that it contains Quinine
or mineral, consequently it produces no qunsln or
other injurious effects whatever upon the constu-
ton. Those cured by it are left as healthy as if
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Aguc is not alone the consequence of
the masmatic poison. a great variety of disor-
dcrs arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Cont, Headache, Blind
ness I0ofh0che, Eay0chc, Catnsvh, ASTHMA, I>al
pitaf,on, Painful .ifection of the Spleen, Hystc'-
les, Pain IN the Bosccls, Colo, Paralysis and De
rangement Of the Stomach, all of which, when
originating i'll this cause, put on the intermittent
type or become periodical. This 6 CI'RE expels
the poison from the blood, and consequently cures
them all alike. 1t is an invaluable protection 10
immigrants and persons travelling CT temporarily
residing in the malarous districts If taken occa-
sionally or daily while exposed to the infection,
that will be excreted from the system, and cannot
accumulate in sufficient quantity to ripcn into dis
case. Hence it is even more valuable for protec-
ton than cure, and few will ever suffer from Inter-
mttents if they avail themselves Of the protection
this remedy affords.

WE DON'T FORGET you, DARL1Na

We don't forget yon, darling,
Though many months have flown,
And the turf upon your little grave
Has green and grassy grown;
p The cartl, has stilfits sammcr grace,
And crcwds move thoughtlcss on;
But, OH we long for vanished face,
And the touch of hand that's gone.
Men deem it oft trifing voc,
When young infant dies;
But countless weeping Rachels know
The souls deep agonos.
Torn from the trusting babe that lay
Long nestled near the heart,
Life ever has vacancy
Untitled by human art.
We don'tforget you, darling
Oh, no, VIC still are true;
Each fr,ril memcnto is most dear,
That once was linked to you.
Atsnight, in dreaming slun,bers bound,
You are again cur own.
Again our arms entwinc you round,
Nc wake, to mourn alone.
Through ti,cc all children seem more fair,
Sweet sound their tripping feet
Their bird like voices on the air,
Light laughter in the street.
God has ordained that evermore
Love makes the world akin;
One babe unlocks the hearts wide door,
That all may enter in.
We don't forget you, darling,
Safe in the lovely land;
Perhaps crown ison your brow,
A harp within your hand,
We long again to greet you,
When earthly tolls arc done;
Oh, bliss untold to meet you
Oh, joy when heaven is won!
Till then wcll ever meekly strive,
Our duties to fulfill
Teaching the erring how to live,
Loving our Fathers will;
But We don't forget you, darling,
ks, Though far hence We may rove;
You still will be cur polar star,
Pointing to realms abeFe!

Something to Reflect Upon

The following paragraph of a signif-
cant article in the editorial columns Of
the New York Times will furnish food
for much reflection:
THE RESULTS IT A PROPHECY?
There is divinity shaping the course
of this war, and we must accept its for
tunes and its misfortunes with equal
trust and hopefuIness. There is one
thing, and only one, at the bottom Of
the fght-and that is the NEGRO And
yet, both North and South are studiously
ignoring the fact, and deceiving them
selves and trying to deceive the world
as to the cause Of the quarrel The
South pretends to be fighting for indie
pendence-but is fighting for the estab-
lishment of human bondage as the basis
of Republican Government The North,
or loyal States, claim to be fighting for
the re- establishment of the Constitution
and laws, and to have no thought of
property or social institutions in their
minds. But they know that until
slavery changes its relation to Govern
ment, and becomes its complete subject,
instead Of its arrogant master, the peace
andsafety of the Republic are impossible.
IF our army had been victorious at
Manassas, they would have marched on
to Richmond, and ended this war on
false basis, both parties ignoring to the
last the cause of the war. The God that
rules over all, and does exact justice in
the end to bond and free, would not per-
nit compromise Of this sort to forestall
his providence. And he has awakened
the nation, as by the shock of an earth
quake.

Nisnt,. the Poor Man.s Friend.

Night revels all artificial distinction.
The beggar on his pallet of straw
snoressas soundly as the king in his bed
of down. Night, gentle, soothing, re
freshing night, the earthly paradise of
the slave, the sweet oblivion of the care
worn soul, the nurse of romance-of
devotion; how great the painting heart
of society yearns for the night and rest!
Sleep is Gods special gift to the poor;
for the great there is no time fixed for
repose. Quiet they have none; and in
stead of awaiting the approach of events
they fret and repine, they starve, sleep;
and chide the tardy hours as if every
tomorrow were big with the fate of
some hereafter. The torrent of events
goes roaring past, keeping eager expec-
tation constantly on the tip-toe, and
drives timid slumber away.

This educational enterprise is no longer an
experiment. The liberal patronage extended
to it, throughout its first year, most clearly
proves that it is ''the right thing i'll the right
place"
The most approved text books are used, and
the rooms are well supplied with apparatus,
such as philosophical instruments, geometrical
forms, maps, charts. &c.
The chief design of this Institution is to
prepare young men for College, and Teachers
for more extensive usefulness.
Many thanks arc due to those who have so
ardently labored to sustain the interests fths
Seminary, and it is hoped that their efforts
will still be put forth for its support.
The Seminary is located in a beautiful part
of the County, and those who wish to send
their children to School can find no place more

Expressions of Dress.


Women are more like flowers than we
think. In their dress and adornment
they express their natures, as the fow-
ers in their petals and eolors. Some
women are like the modest daisies and
violets; they never leek CT feel better
than when dressed dn morning wrap
per. Others are aet themselves, unless
they can fame out lie gorgeous dyes, like
the tulip or blash rose. Who has not
seen women just like white lilies? We
know several double marigolds and pop
les. There are women fit only for vel
vets, ike the dahlies; others are grace
full and airy, like the azaleas Now and
then, you, see hollyhocks and sunfowers
When women are free to. dress as they
like, uncontrolled by others, and not
limited by their circumstances, they do
not fail'to express their true characters,
and dress becomes forn of expression
very genuine and aseful-Nereditk.
