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 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, 81
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
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 taint 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
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous; I;
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

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.. ANTHONY FIRE,
ROSE, or ERYsrPELAs, PMPLEs, PUsTULBs,
BLoTcHEs, BLA1Ns and BorLs, TuMoRs, letter

RHEUMATIsM, SYpHILrrIo and MERcuRnL Dis
EASES, DRoPsY, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY, and,
indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITIA-
TED or IMPURE BLOOD. The popular belief
in "inpwity ofMe blood" is founded in truth,
for scrofula is 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.

An UnfavOrable Representation of
GaTibaIdi.

The Turin correspondent of the London Neus
thus describes the appearance of Garibaldi as
legislator;
General Garibaldi-I cay it with sincere re
gret-has lost-by his conduct In Parliament. a
great part of his prestige. His fantastic style
of dress contrastea with our plain clothes, and
his striking countenance, would have produced
on the deputies, as they have on the people at
large, an effect the reverse of unfavorable, If
theyhad been accompanies with good sense and
eloquent speech. But it must be confessed that
a strong and somewhat imperious voice was
the only attribute manifested in the chamber
that at all corresponded TO his imposing appear.
ance. His rough, i'll chosen and often inco-
herent language, is sufficient of itself to prove
that he is not qualified either for discussion or
administration in civilized country. He had
to deal with man Of lofty character, Baron
kicasoli, and man Of genius, Count Cavour,
and his words and actions showed that he was
incapable of comprehendiug either ofthem. He
was, in fact, rugged and indomitable guerilla
chieftain in sober, business like, deliberatiye
assembly. To the courteous and conciia,ory
language OF Cavour he answered rudely, not In.
tentionally, but from ignorance; in a word, he
was thoroughly "out of bis element"
In the midst of unwise or selfish counselors,

more unfortunate than when he spoke them.
because he read what had been written BY 9th
ers, who are making use of this great, blind man
for their own purpose. This sometimes pro-
duced amusing results. For instance, he pre-
sented an.order OF the day; subsequently he an
nounced that he should not vote for it, because
1t had been drawn up by other persons, and did
not express bis views.
Here we have light thrown on his extraor-
dinary DEGREES and counter DEGREES, and the con
fused and contradictory course Of action that
astonished everybody so much during his die
tatorship OF Southern Italy. He is brave and
loyGl soul, but what cannot help calling his
stupid inexperience, makes him the tool of cley
er and mischievous men, from contact with
whom his best friends and advisers withdraw
In the recent division in the chamber, two of
his Generals, Malenchini and Caniozzi, voted
against his order of the day two abstained from
voting; three voted with him as a last sacrifice
to their personal devotion to him, but they will
not follow him any further if he does not get out

The Monster Gun ssUnionv for IN.
East

Inc great gun which has been under way for
some months at the Fort Pitt Works is at last
complete, and now on the way to the railroad on
Liberty street. where 1t will be shipped for the
East. Though 1t is expected to do great execu.
ton, II ever put in service, the immense labor
and cost required in the production of a single
gun OF such calibre, will doubtless prevent tbei,
manufacture to any great extent. Tboueb the
"Union" was completed with less delay tban
the Floyd-owing to the fact that all the annar.
atus requisite had TO be prepared for the latter
1t has been an almost incessant labor of
months to finish it. The amount of hand L.
Dor required in finishing would scarcely be be.
iieved. The gun is made of iron of the yety
best quality-Bloomfeld, ofan extra refining
and combines hardness and toughness In the
"superlative" degree, the bore being further
hardened by the "hollow" plan of casting to al.
most the hardness of steel. To chip and fle
such portions OF the gun as cannot be finished
by lathe machinery, is no easy task. Tn tbis
way the trunnions, the 6rimbases" uniting The
trunnions to the gun, the breech and ratchet are
all finished. The rifing, although an UNDER
taking OF some magnitude, was completed in
few days without difficulty.
Ihe gun was taken from the lathe to the ward
az the works for the purpose of finishing the
breech, and yesterday, having been completed, ,
1t was set in motion for the East. Some slIoh,
alteration was made in the plan of moving Il.
from that used in moving the "Floyd." The
latter was furnished with two huge rings, some
SIX feet in diameter, one Of which was clipped on
the breech, the other over the muzzle. These
rings being of the same diameter allowed the
gun to be moved by rolling about its longitude
nal axis. For the purpose Of moving the Union
but one ring is used, slipping over the muzzle
and bringing It's diameter up to that of the
breech-four feet. The ring Is slipped on
loosely, and will turn on the gun, II necessary,
relieving the strain where the gun is moved Ia
a curved line. A block and tackle, With tho
blight Of the fall wrapped three or four times
around the gun and looped over a trunnion, ia

mass - twenty-five tons weight. An iron

Is used for an anchor to furnish a "purc6ase"
on the tackle. The gun is rolled on timbers
prepared at the ends for breaking Joints and
forming angular lines, and its progress, though
by no means swift, Is steady and satisfactory.
The "Union" is to be shipped, we learn, to
washington City via Baltimore, and from thence
to Fortress Monroe, or "Old Point Comfort, 4"
where an opportunity will be had OF testing il
in comparison with the "Floyd." We hope to

The weapons OF thi. war.

The editor of Wilkes IN. " Spirit of the
Times is soldier now in Washington. In
late letter to the Spirit, he thus remarks on the
weapons with which the battles are likely to be
won;
Some importance has been attributed to the
fact that the Southern men, as o general thing,
are better marksmen than the soldiers of the
North, and that they will consequently possess
great advantage, through such superiority, in the
hour of battle. But while do not believe that
this 10 the case TO any great extent, would not,
even if it were 80, give much consideration to the
fact; for in battle but few special shots are made,
and the coming struggle is not destined to be
contest of mere Workmanship or evolution
War began with the spear for its weapon; after
q variety Of changes, through several centuries,
II yielded its refnements, and under Napoleon
ILL.,, on the fields of Magenta and Solferino,
came back to the spear again. On those bloody
and bitterly contested fields, the alert Zouaues
and the athletic Chasseurs d. Afrisue refused
to accept of the rations Of powder and ball when
served out to the troops, just previous to battle;
nay, when the charge was given, refused even
| to discharge the load which was already In their
weapons, but, rushing forward through the FIRE,
they engaged the Austrians hand to hand, aud
bayoneted them in the ranks. This 10 unques-
tionably the true resource of superior physical
condition.
On this plan the coming war between the
North and South will surely be contested; and
in part evidence thereof, will merely point to
the fact that the Government has already taken
away the little costly bfesoh-loading toys which
the muufceuce of New York put In the hands
of Col. Ellsworth's o regiment, and served out to
them the spear, in the shape Of sabre on the
end Of Mimic musket, and may Heaven help
those under the edge of whose bayonets ihese
sspet lambs" shall succeed in getting. There
will be some strange fighting, in which, posi-
bly,, even quitting" and wrestling and throttliDg
may form part; but. after q short turmoil, the
result will be heap Of slain and Q flying rem
nant, each Of whom will probably render his
verdict OF the struggle In the exclamation that
"those fellows are not gentlemen.' The sabre

entire army, and feel certain, from what
have gathered through military men, that the
, actual embrace Of battle, man to man, Is what
the Northern captains Of this war intend most.

Of Arizona are chiefly devoted to agricultural
