RESIGNATION OF Com. MAURY.-The
resignation of such an officer as Maury will
carry moral weight in favor of the Southern
cause throughout the civilized world
There is no American as widely known in
Europe. Wherever science has shed ray
of light on the globe there the name of Mau-
ry is as familiar as a household word.-

men have We'd with each other in shower.
ing honors upon his head. The extraor,
dinary and benifcent labors of Maury, for
the commerce of the world, have associated
his name in the minds of mankind with all
that is truly great and good. The adhei-
sion of such man to the Southern cause
will cause men abroad to reflect, and will
exert Infinitely more influence than would
hat of Scott Europe is crowded with
military men, far more eminent than Scott,
who is scarcely known outsic the limits Of

A BRAVE VIRGINIA BOY.-We under.

A BRAVE VIRGINIA BoY.-We under.
stand that when the vandal Black Republi.
cans had in their panic and hurry destroyed
as much of the property at the Gosport
Navy Yard as they could, their last effort
was to blow up the gates of the Dry Dock.
To this end, after dcpositing sufficient
quantity of powder in bulk, they laid a
train of powder to very Glow burning fuse
at some distance from the Dock. A por.
ton of this train was laid on the top of a
pile of planks, behind which was concealed
a Portsmouth boy. The fuse was lighted,
the vandal Republicans made "Boston
time" for their boats, expecting momenta'
rily to hear, at a safe distance, an awful
explosi %. But they missed their mark.
The little Virginia hero very deliberately
rose up aud overturned one of the planks
on which the train was laid, thereby "cut-
ting the connection" with the bulk of pow
der, and saving one Of the most valuable
naval works ia The United States or in the
world. What was the name of this boy !
Let US have it, and let old Virginia adopt
him as her son, to be reared at :er own
expense.-Raleigh Register.
THE PALMETTo.-The palmetto has now
become the symbol of Southern Iudepeu
deuce. Wherever movement has been
made against Northern aggressions, the
Palmetto has been the sign under which
the sons of liberty have rallied. Its glory
is no longer confined to the bounds Of South
Carolina, but is claimed by all true child
rcn of the sunny South. The first gun fred
iu the cause of Southern rights, boomed
from under the palmetto flag. The Sta'
ofMe Hest was driven in disgrace from it
halowed presence, and it waved side by
side with the "seven.starred banner" D." wher
Fort Sumter became our own. 1t is nov
to the Confederate States what the eagle
was to the old Confederacy, and should be
adopted as our Confederate emblem. LIE
| it be placed on the Southern flag, in th'
circlet of seven stars, and our colors viii
then become the most beautiful, as the,
are now the most gallant in the world.

Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, 10y which this fluid becomes vitiated.
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, il
pervadcs 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 may
not destroy. The scrofulous taint 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 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, "I
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children"
It's 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-
tions 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-
climates 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
ore 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 q medicine We supply in
