Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

10 q 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 1t. No organ Is free
from its attacks, nor Is there one which It may
not destroy. The scrofuluus 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-
stituton, descending " from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation," I" indeed,
1t seems to be the rod Of Him who, says, "I
will visit the iniquities Of the fathers upon
their children" N =, t.e.,-, 80 rfetF
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, eruptons 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,
ore still rendered fatal by this faint 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. AKA
One quarter Of all our people are scrofulous
their persons ore invaded by this lurking in
fiction, and their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system we must renovatc
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such medicine we supply in .''N

AYERS ia
Compound Extract Of SarsapariIla,

the most cffectual 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 ERuPrIvB
and SKIN DISEASES, ST. ANTHoNY's FIRE,
RosE, or ERYsIPELAs, PnPLEs, PUsTULEs,
BLorcHEs, BLAINs and BoILs, TuMoRs, TErrER
and SALT RHEuM, ScALD HEAD, RNowoRM,
RHEUMATrsM, SYpMILITIc and MERsURIAL Dis
EASES, DRopsY, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY, and,
indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING PROM VITIA-
TED or IMPURE BLOOD. The popular belief
in "inpwity Of the 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.

Ague Cure,
FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF

FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF
intermittent Fever, or Fever and Ague,
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed
for the whole class OF diseases originate
ing I'm hillary arrangement, caused by
the Malaria OF Miasmatic Countries. VI
We are enabled here to offer the community
remedy which, while il cures the above complaints
with certainty, is stil perfectly harmless in any
quantity. Such remedy is invaluable in districts
where these affecting disorders prevail. This
"CtRE" expels the miasmatic poison of FEVER
AND AoUE from the system, and prevents the de-
velopment Of the disease, If taken on the first ap-
proach Of its premonitory symptoms. ltisnot only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
Of complaints, but also the cheapest.e The large
quantity we supply for dollar brings it within the
reach of every body; and in bilious districts, where
FEVER AND AGuE prevails, every body should
have 1t and use it freely both for cure and protec
ton. great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure Of Intermittents is that it contains Quinine
or mineral, consequently it produces no quinism or
other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu-
ton. Those cured by it are left as healthy as if
they had never had the disease. ~
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence Of
the masinatic poison. A great variety Of disor-
ders arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, Rheumatisnn, Go,e, Headache, Blind
ness, 7oothashe, Earache, Catayyh, Asthma, Pal
pitation. Paintid Afection of the Spleen, Hyster-
les, Pain IN the Bo,oeis, Colo, Paralysis and De-
railgeaent of the Stomach, all of which, when
originating i'll this cause, put on the Intermittent
type, or become periodical. This CURE expels
the poison from the blood, and consequently cures
them all alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to
immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the inaarious districts. If taken occa
sionally or daily while exposed to the infection,
that will be excreted from the SYSTEM and cannot
accumulate in sufficient quantity to rpcn into dis
ease. Hence it Is even more valuable for protec-
ton than cure, and few will ever suffer from Inter-
mttents they avail themselves Of the protection
this remedy affords. "

last evening, or rather night, the scene Of o

ences between Col. Philip johnson, M. c., and
the ultra Republicans The Democrats held
County Convention yesterday afternoon, at
which Col. Johnson took OCCASION to defend his
course In the late extra session Of Congress, and
to make some pointed remarks In reference to
the Administration. After the meeting was
declared adjourned, the Rev. Mr.. Mitchell, Of
Phillipsburgh, N. j., attempted to reply to Col.
Johnson, but was prohibited. This naturally
created excitement, and . sort of personal war.
fare was kept up among the crowd till evening,
when large number Of men and boys resolved
upon burning the Hon. M. G. in efigy. This
prelude having been gone through with, they
then repaired to bis residence and demanded
atonement for the sins Of the afternoon.
The Colonel having satisfied them of bis
patriotism, and the spirit Of mobocracy being by
this time rampant, the cry was for vengeance
upon the SehtiaeI office, Democratic paper
and thence the crowd rushed, and breaking
open the door and windows, they soon laid the
establishment in ruins, or, as the phrase goes
'cleaned 1t out" The work Of destruction be,
Ting complete, on they marched for the A,gu.
office--the property Of Colonel Hutter, OK post

to suspend operations here for twenty -four hour
to give one Of more loyal stripe, occupying the
