WASHINGTON, Dec. 3I.-HoUsE-M Nc
Phersou asked leave, but objection was
made, to offer Il resolution calling on the
Secretary of War to inform the House what
transfer of cannon or munitions of war had
been removed from the arsenals since April,
1860; what sales of arms had been made
subsequent to that time; to whom, and
whether by private or public sale.
Mr.. Mexican asked leave to offer the fol-
lowing:
That the several States did not ordain and
establish this government That it was
made by the people of the Z. S., in or
der to form more perfect union, establish
Justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide
for the common defense, promote the gener-
al welfare and secure the blessings
of liberty to themselves and posterity That
for such purposes the people withdrew from
their several State Governments certain
powers, and invested them in one general
government where constitutional laws and
treaties are tDe supreme Of tt.-s- lvr1v4,
anything in the laws of any State to the
contrary Notwithstanding That we are not
SO States, but ono nation, made such by the
Constitution, and known to the world as
the American Nation; That any nation has
the right of self-preservation-the right to
defend itself against enemies without and
traitors within. Ihey belleVe this nation
has the power to do so and it is their duty
to exercise it.
Mr.. Maynard objected to the introduction
of the resolution, and Mr. Mexican with
drew it.
Mr.. Bingham introd uced bill to further
provide for the collection on imports. Re-
ferred to the Committee on Judiciary
The Speaker laid before the House
communication from the late Secretary of
War, explaining the reason why, and justi-
flying his course in giving certain acceptan-
ces to Russell, Majors & Co., and inviting
investigation into all his official acts.
Mr. Bocock moved that the communion
tion be referred to the select committee to
investigate the abstraction of the Indian
Trust Bonds.
Mr.. Bocock said Mr. Curtis could appear
as a witness before the committee. He brief
ly contended that the resolution should take
that direction, as the Secretary of War says
he has been implicated to some extent as
= party to the question before the committee
Mr.. Curtis denied that he had offered
himself as a witness, and remarked that the
Secretary had made the contract with Rus
sell, Majors & Co. without authority OF law
and to the prejudice Of other parties

weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, il
pcrvades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of II. No organ is free
from its attacks nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous taint 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 venereai infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
stitution, descending F" from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation 1" indeed,
it seems TO be the rod of Him who says, "I
will visit the iniquities Of the fathers upon

Its effects commence by deposition from tho
blood of eorrHpt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruphons or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood depresses
the energies of life, so that screfalous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; eonse-
qucntly 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 |;
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 a 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 remedals that have
been discovered for the expurgaton Of this foul
disorder from tlie blood, and the rescue Of the
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it should be employed for the cure Of

HEALTH OF AMERICAN WOMEN.

Female irregularities, weakness, nritine dis.
placements, and all local uratne difficulties and
constitutional troubles Of women, are entirely

In this connection, Miss. Beecher sister of the
Rev Henry Ward Beecher in letters to the people,

the place OF ase and ladies' have become robust
