toner Of Akron for the last twen'y years, during
which lime he has ted more than 1900 diff.
ferenI cases; and has, through his extended prac-

over mere territory. perhaps, than that OF any
other practitioner in the State, many residents Of
Geaugo County having, at different times, ap-
piled 10 him ioI relief from suffering.
For The last few years, DR.. Bartges has devoted
his attention more especially 10 the treatment OF
Chronic Diseases, in which he has been attended

This certi6es that Mrs. L. Frederick, while re-
siding at my house in the spring OF 1859, was ta-
ken dangerously sick, and remained confined TO
her bed for seven months. During this time she
had been treated by two different physicians, but
in spite of their efforts she continued 10 grow
worse, until she became so much reduced that
she conld scarcely speak loud word, or tHrn
herself in bed, and was given up by her physiciana
TO die.
While in this critical condition, medicines wero
procured from DR.. S. w. Barlges, and admins
tered, and in one week his patient was abe TO

Scrofula, or Kings Evil.

is a constitutional disease, n corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes ytintcd,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, il
pervades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease OH any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous tsint is variously
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 III the con-
stitutioa, descending " from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation :" indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, al
will visit the iniquities 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
tubcrclcs; i'll the glands, swcllings; and on
the surface, cruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which gcndcrs i'll the blood, depresses
the energies of life, SO that scrofulous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofilous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
qucntly vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
nrc still rendered fatal by this taint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
| III this scrofulous contemplation; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
Oncquartcr 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 renoyate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.

As this appointment has been received
since the election Of a candidate for the
office, yet much earlier than anticipated
by some, a word Of explanation is due 10
Mr.. Riddle, on whose recommendation il
was made. What we have said in regard
to the election is well known, and we
have no desire 10 ailude 10 it, except 10
say, 10 justice TO Mr.. Riddle, that II could
not have influenced his action in the
matter. The result Of the election, as
well as our comments, were received by
him after his recommendation had been
made, and approved by the Department,
whose policy il is 10 favor the local press
as much as possible. Though lie had
long been aware that we were candidate,
our frst intimstion that we were 10 have
bis influence. came with the appointment.
Any mac who occupies the position OF
Representative, is peculiarly situated, and,
as il is impossible to suit all, should never
be asked to do otherwise in such matters,
than his own judgment and sense OF right
may dictate. And. surely, noue who
know him would ask more than this OF
Mr.. Riddle, whose Independence and in-
tegrity are not less proverbisl than his

An equal and normal condition of the blood is

i've or deficient circulation or stagnalion of the
blood, is disease To illustrate : iorpieiiy OF the
Liver is caused by sngnaiion OF blood in that or
gan; diseases Of the Kidneys illumination of the
Lungs, Disease Of the Heart, &C., by the same
cause, namely: Improper circulation; and fiom
the same cause spring oil minor forms OF disease.
To discover certain cure, hen, for these diseases,
the ii-sf great enquiry necessary is, What causes
the blood TO circulated
For centuries il has been a matter of much
study among scientific and medical men; and as
many experiments have been made, and much
labor expended upon the enquiry, it has been left
to this century among its other wonderful in
crease in knowledge, TO make this grand dscov-
cry, also. ... ..
acknowledging that life is the gift OF the Crea

the planets move in their spheres, and all yegeta
BILE life is governed by certain absolute laws, SO
animal life is traceable to fixed cause, which
removes or destroys, and death, the certain effect
follows.
Analysis of the red corpuscles OF the blood shows
them to be compounds of iron, sulphur and phos-
phorus.
The air we breathe, we know to contain very
large proportion OF oxygen.
Oxygen brought in contact with metal evolves
or emits electricity.
Electricity brought in contact with muscular
fibre, causes il TO contract.
These facts being indisputabe, we have now
the solution as TO The motor or motive power OF
the heart. The oxygen in the nir we breathe
coming in contact with the iron in the red cor.
