scrofula, on King's Evil,


4. . oorst;tutonal disease corruption Of the
Mood by which this lui1 becomes vihated,
,reak. and poor. Being IN the circulation, il
oervades the whole body, and may burst out
tn disease on any part of Il. No organ Is free
from It's attacks, nor is there one which It may
not destroy. The serohllous tRint is yariourly 4.
caused BY niercufial disease, low living, dh-
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the venereal infection. What
ever belts origin, i is hSrsditary IN the cpn-
stitutoh, tcscendins" /" from parctits % clnldfen
unto the third and fourth generation " indeed,
It seems TO be The rod Of Him who says, II
win visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood Of corrupt OF ulcefous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, md internal orgms, is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
rupton, which genders in the blood, depresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous consdtu-
tons not only suffer from scrofilous CONF
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 tho
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 scroftlous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking M
fiction, and their health is undermined by IT.
To cleanse it from the system we must reIiovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and IN
vieorate il by healthy food and exercise.

Henr a Vermont Patrint.

The Hon. Paul Dillingham; was nomin-
ated by the Democratic State Convention
of Vermont as party candidate for the Of
flee of Governor. He has declined to ex-
cept the nomination in words worthy a son
of Molly Stark. Read, ponder, and heed
them:
81 know that our party divisions in the
start, are not easily forgotten; men become
attached to their party-and l wish to cast
no reproach upon any--who now believe
that their patriotic efforts for their country
can be rendered more beneficial by drag
ging them through old party channels. 1
judge differently. Our country, not par
ty, is in peril, and that country demands Of
all its sons, their best judgment and efforts
in its behalf In Union there is strength
We all believe in the truth of this proverb,
and if we have Union, strong Union, to
effect great end, it can only be had by
carrying into it perfect equality with conf
dence. We must, for the time, forget
whether we be republicans or democrats
In such Union there will be strength and
efficiency, and, if we differ hereafter, let it
not be to settle the question who did most
for his country-let us act together-act
honestly, efficiently-and let him wear
honors who fairly wins them. feel very
confident that great number-I hope a
majority of all the old parties in this State
feel and Judge as do, and stand for their
country--one and indivsible-now and for
ever. With such 1 mean to act, whether
their number be few or many, till this most
wicked rebellion is crushed out, and, wish
ing that my opinions and acts may be in
harmony, have felt called upon to decline
the nomination so honorably rendered to
me-"
Stephen Thomas and James T. Thurston,
the Democrat nominees for Lieutenant Gov
ernor and State Treasurer, have also writ
ten to the Chairman of the State Commit.
tee, declining to be candidates for similar
patriotic reasons.

The blockade.

1t is argued in some quarters that the
policy of the Government in proclaiming a
blockade of the Southern ports of the I'm
ion, contained within itself the germs Of
difficulties which it were desirable to avoid.
A blockade, it is said is a measure in which
foreign nations are concerned. They can
inquire into it, and have right to insist
that it shall be executed in truly effective
manner by sufficient naval force before
the entrance to every port.
IT, instead ola blockade, the Presidents
proclamation had simply declared the ports
of the rebellious region to be closed and
no longer ports of entry, this difficulty would
have been avoided. Every nation has a
right to indicate what ports shall be acces-
sible to commerce, and, on proper notice,
may close and open them as its own neces-
sites shall require. No foreign Power has
any right to ask whether port, which the
National Government has declared to be
closed, is or is not fully blockaded, nor any
right to complain of the seizure and confs-
cation of vessels attempting to enter such a
port. 1t is matter of domestic police with
which foreigners have no concern.
This would appear to be the view of Con.
gress, which has just enacted law for clos,
ing the ports of the whole rebellious sea
coast. The President will, we presume
soon issue the necessary proclamation en-
forcing this law; and then the animated
discussions of the foreign journals on the
subject of the blockade and all the kindred
topics will be superogatory--N. Y Tri6
