SCrofula, or Kings Evil,

Is constitutional disease, corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes Initiated, 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 may not destroy. The
scrofulous faint is variously caused by mercurial
disease, low living disordered or unhealthy food,
impure air. filth and filthy habits, the depressing
vices, and, above all, by the venereal infection.
Whatever be its origin it is hereditary in the con-
st;tuton, 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 rniquites of the fathers upon their chill
Een''
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver and internal organs, is termed tu-
bercles; in the glands, sweings; and OIL the sur
face. eruptions or sores This foul corruption,
which genders in the blood depresses the ener-
gies oflife, so that scrofulous constitutions not
only suffer from scrofulous complaints, but they
have far less power to withstand the attacks of
other diseases; consequently 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
decmates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofuous contamination; and many de-
structve diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain, and
indeed, of all the organs, arise from or are aS-
gravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scroiulous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking infec-
ton and their health is undermined by it. To
cleanse it from the system We must renovate the
blood by an Alternative medicine and invigorate
it by healthy food and exercise Such medicine

in the battle. He Immediately assumed com

nately. At one time the lett was was pressed so
severely that the issue of the conflict in that d-
rection seemed doubtful. 1t here Bar;on's
Georgia regiment was posted which was SO terri
bly, cut up.
A large body of our troops from the center were
sent az this critical moment to the assistance of
Johnston, and turned the tide of battle. The
enemy broke and fled before the impetuous charges
OF the Southerners, and the battle soon became a
rout
Advices from Richmond to July 22d saws that
Congress met ut noon and after prayer had been
offered the following dispatch from Manassas was
read before the body:
Night has closet upon a hard fought field
Our forces won a glorious victory. The enemy
were routed and fed precipitately, abandoning
large amount of arms, ammunition, knapsacks
ard baggage The ground WAS strewn for miles
with those killed, and farm houses and grounds
around are filled with the wounded
Pursuits was continued along several routes
towards Leesburg and Centerville, until darkness
covered the fugitves.
We have captured several field batteries and
regimenta stands OF arms, and one United States
flag. Many prisoners have been taken.
Too high pIslise can not be bestowed, whether
for the skill of the principal officers. for the
bravery of all our troops.
The battle was mainly fought on our left.
Our force was $1,000; that of the enemy esti
mated at 35, 900 (Sgned) JEFF. DAVIS.
Another dispatch says the entire Confederate
force was about 10000. The entire force united
was neir $4,000. No particulars received of the
dead and wounded.
