Sorofula, or Kings Evil,

Is q constitutional disease, q corruption Of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiatcd,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pcrvales the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The sclofulous tant 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 yenercal infection. What
eyer be its origin, it is hereditary i'll the con-
stitution, descending from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation !" indeed,
it seems to be the rod Of Him who says, 81
will visit the iniquitius Of the fathers upon
their children"
It's effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcCrous matter which, in
the lungs liver, and internal organs is termed
tuberclcs; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, cruptions or sores. This foul COR
rupGou which geudurs in the blood, dcprosscs
the energies Of life, SO that scrofulous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrohllous coRi-
plants but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; consc-
qucntly vast numbers perioh by disorders
which, although not scrofulous IN their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this tail.t i'll the
system. Most of the consumption which do
climates the human family has It's origin directly
in this scroiulouS 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.
Onequartcr of all our people are scroCulous;
their persons are invaded by This lurking in
fiction, and their health is undermined by it.

The Senate amendment (concuried in by
the House, to the bill for admitting hansas
into The Union, does not in any manner affect
the Constitution of that new S ate, 1t merely
provides for the establishment of q separate
Judicial District embracing the whole State J
under the Federal Government. The object
of tocking thisproyision upon the act OF adms-
sion was apparently parti>an merely, SO as TO
secure the appointment of District Judge by
the present Administration. 1t was moved
by the friends Of Judge Pcttis, whose appoint
ment is expected, aud opposed 10y Mr., Doug
las, to whom the former showed himself a
bitter enemy during the late canvass The
"one follower" OF Douglas in the Senate, Mr..
Push, deserted him in this emergency, turn
ing the balance in favor of Potit, by one
majority, The amendment was concurred in
by the House, being comparatively unimpor
tant in order to avoid further delay.

Passage between Green and DouglnS--DOug-

There was charact ,ristic spa in the
Senate last Thursday, between Green Of
Missouri, and Douglas, on the bill o'gaiaiag
the territory Of Idaho, Green had offered
an amendment that the Legislature had no
power to impair the rights of property, and
that taxation should be uniform, Douglas
smelt in this an attack upon sQuatter soyer-
eighty theory, and forthwith pitched in, de-
Tending the right of the territorial Legislature
TO arrange these matters, saying that Green's
proposition was without precedent,
Mr.. Green got up and read these Identical
provisions in the bill organizing Oregon and
Washington territories. reported by Douglas
himself, when the chairman of the Committee
on Territories There was m explosion of
laughter and Douglas got very mad, saying
that it was not right in discu 'sing public ques'
tons TO lug in issues of individual consistency.

EBENSBURG,

'Tben, sir, may | ask why you are
here, and for what purpose you trife in
the sanctuary Of the Most High 2" said
the clerical gentleman, evidently somewhat
enraged.
81 came sir, because you invited all
those wishing to be united in the holy
bonds Of matrimony to step forward, and
| happen to entertain such a wish. / am
very sorry to have misunderstood You,
sir, and now [ wish you very good day"
The benediction was uttered with so
lemnity OF tone little in accordance with
the twitching Of the facial nerves; and
when, after the church was closed, the
story got wind among the congregation,
more than one girl regretted that her
wishes had not been as boldly expressed
as those of the young gentleman who had
really wished to be ''united in the holy
bonds of matrimony."

peared amidst the smoke and tumult of
the battle
The twilight of the stormy day grad
ually gave place to the gloom of night
The storm of battle ragged with undimin-
ished fury. Thirty thousand Russians
were already stretched upon the frozen
ground. Ten thousand Frenchmen, the
dying and the dead, were also strewed
upon the plain. Ten thousand horses had
also been struck by the balls Some were
struggling in the convulsive agonies of
death, while others, in the widest terror
were rushing riderless over the plain.
1t was now ten o'clock at night, and
nearly one-half of the Russian army was
destroyed, and all the survivors were
exhausted and respondent. AT that hour
a fresh division of the French army impet-
uously entered the field. This decided the
day. But still the Russians, though reti-
ring, maintained brave and unbroken
front The victors utterly exhausted,
sought such repose as could be found,
shelterless beneath that wintry sky. Ma
poleon, according to his invariahle custom,
traversed the field of battle, to minister,
with his own hands, to the wounded and
the dying. 1t was midnight, cold and
stormy. Perhaps never before did earth
present spectacle of such unmitigated
misery. Frightful was the scene which
the dawn Of the morning revealed. Nearly
forty thousand men, awfully mutilate1,
were stretched upon the crimson snow
A wall of anguish rose from the wounded,
which froze every heart with terror For
eight days Napoleon remained at Eylau.
until all the sick and wounded were care
fully provided for, when he returned to
the Vistula. In the spring he again march
ed forth to the victory of Friedland, and
the peace of T'ilsit.
