Scr0fula, or Kings Evil,


is constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiatcd,
weak. and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervadcs the whole body, and may burst out
IN disease on any part of it. No organ is FREQ
from its attacks, nor S there one which it NAV
not destroy. The scrOfulous faint is variouslY
caused by mcrcurial 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-
stltutlon, descending :" from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation :" indeed.
1t seems to be the rod of Him who saws, g
Will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood OF corrupC or ulcerOus matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swallings; and On
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruptlon, 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 faint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
cHlates inc human family has It's origin directly
III this scrotulous 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.

Head Quarters of the Army. J
Washington, D. c., Nov. l, 1861. I
General Order, No 10.
In accordance with General Order No.
"a from the War Department, hereby
command OF the armies of the United
States, in the midst of the difficulties
which encompass and divide the nation,
hesitation and self distrust may we'll ac-
company the assumption of so vast a re-
sponsiElity but confding, as | do, in the
loyalty, discipline and courage of our
troops, and believing, as do, that Provi-
dence will favor our just cause, cannot
doubt that success will crown our efforts
and sacrifices.
The army will unite with me in the
feeling Of regret that the weight of many
years and the effect Of increasing infrmi-
ties contracted and intensified in his coun-
try's service, should just now remove from
our head the great soldier of our nation,
the hero who in his youth raised high the
reputation of his country in the field of
Canada, which he sanctifed with his
blood; who in more mature years proved
10 the world that American skill and vaIer
could repeat, if not eclipse, the exploits of
Cortez in the land of the Montezumas :;
whose whole life has been devoted to the
service Of his country; whose whole eff
forts have been directed TO uphold our
honor at the smallest sacrifice of life +; a
warrior who scorned the selfish glories OF
the battle field, when his great faculties as
statesman could be employed more pro-
fitably for his country; citizen who in
his declining years had given to the world
a most shining instance of loyalty in dis
regarding all ties of birth and clinglng still
to the cause of truth and honor. Such
has 5een the career, such the character,
Of Winfield Scott, whom it has long been
the delight Of the nation to honor both as
man and a soldier. While We regret his
loss, there is one thing we cannot regret
the bright example he has left for our
emulation. Let us all hope and pray that
his declining years may be passed in peace
and happiness, aud that he may be cheer
e d by the success Of the country and the
cause he has fought for and loved so well.
Beyond AL that, let US do nothing that
can cause him to blush for us. Let no de
feat of he army he was SO long command
ing embitter his last days, but let our vic
tories illumine the close Of life so grand.
