is constitutional disease, a corruption Of the
blood by which this fiuid becomes vltiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pcrvades the whole body, and may burst out
III disease ON any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor IL there one which it may
not destroy The scrofulous tant lis 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-
stitutlon, descending I" from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation; indeed
it seems to be the rod Of Him who says Il
viii 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
tubrcies; m the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, cruptions or sores. This foul COR
rupnon, which gcrders IN the blood, depresses
the energies OF life. so that scrofulous constitu-
tions not only suffer from scrofnlous COM
plants, but they have fur less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
quently vast numbers perish bv disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal BY this taint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
cimates the human family has Its origin directly
In this scrutulpus contamination; and many
destructive diseases Of the liver. kidncys BRAIN,
and, indeed, Of all the organs, arise from or
arc aggravated by the same cause
Tine quarter OF all our people are scrofulous :;
their persons are invaded BY this lurking in
fiction, and their health Is undermined bv it,
To cleanse it from the system we must renoyats
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
visorate il by healthy food and exercise.

and Fall of the Indian Service" traces in the
history of the East India Company, curious
connection between bad manuscript and bad
morals. Those who write villainous hand
will take warning accordingly. We quote;
"The equanimity of the Company was at
one time much disturbed by the bad writing
and the bad morals of their servants.
Whether there was any connection discov-
cred between the two is not very apparent,
though more unlikely relationships have
been discovered. 1t would be hard to judge
some public men whom we could name by
by their penmanship. 1t is not every cabi-
net minister, indeed, who can write legibly.
But, in the early days of the East India Com
panys establishments bad writing may have
been the direct result of bad morals-the fee
bic, shaky, indistinct letters of the morning
clearly rejecting the debauch over night.
"Be this as it may, the managers at home
wrote out in their general letter of the 9th
January, l7l0-ll; We find the papers in
the packets, and other writings, are very
BADLY performed. We expect this to be rem
edied; and if any of the writers don't write
so good hands as might be expected, we hope
they will improve and do better. IL through
pride or idleness, they, or any other with
you, will not. give them fair warning, and
If they don't mend, dismiss them from our
service. The same we say of all that are
immoral and won't be reclaimed. AHd lei
