The New vessels for the Navy.

Ourspecial dispatches yesterday announc-
ed the addition of one hundred vessels to
our naval force. The Washington RepuJ-
licon says:
"The Navy department is still seduously
employed in either purchasing or charter
ing vessels, with a view, at the earliest
practicable period, of making the blockade
everywhere effective. Already seventy ves-
sells have been purchased, and about thirty
chartered. They will without delay, be
prepared for that important service. Those
who seek an opportunity to complain that
the Navy Department is too slow, show an
ignorance of the facts of the immense
amount of business transacted at the de-
partment. 1t should be borne in mind that
at least as many vessels have been added
to the navy within the last two months as
the navy itself previously comprized, involv-
ing the differing, manning, armamenting,
and the many eteeterdS in connection with
their 'ahoat' and active service.
"Many of the purchased vessels are swift
and of light draft, fitted for service in shall
low waters. 1t will not be long before reb-
el editors will cease to boast of the running
of the blockade and of the supply of trop-
ical fruits for the qualification Of their refin-
ed palates!"

Manners of Northern and Southern Sol
diers.
Another change which 1 observed on get
ting into the railway train on Tuesday NOR
ming was the appearance of many men in
uniform among the passengers. They we're
on their way to the camps, and belonged,
apparently, to respectable class of citizens
-staid, steady people, without the wash
buckler, gallant, bravado air of the South
erners, but probably animated by a proper
amount of pugnscity. When 1 last travelled
this way the train was filed with office seek
ers. At the little villages along the road
and 10 the towns the flag of the United
States is displayed from available points
in wild profusion. Soldiers and volunteers
get iu at every station. On going on board
the steam ferry-boat at Philadelphia, 1 OBJ
served over the door of the saloon, a wood
hatchet hanging up, on which was inscribed,
Estates Rights fre-ax." Other passengers
observed it, and smiled. There is less
earnestness and rancor, or more good ua-
ture, in the North than in the South. The
owner Of an ak inscribed "Federal Union
Az" in an Alabama or Mississippi steamer,
you would have a ''mauVais quart dhsure,"
or, as it is called here, "a pretty hard time
of it." But as the carriages approached
Baltimore, the signs that war was in the
land, and that we were in an enemy's coun-
try, thickened, and evinced most forcibly of
all the immense magnitude of the change
which has taken place since l first iourneyed
toward the Capital. There are many riv-
ers and water-courses which run across the
line of the railway in the valleys between
the undulatiDg woodlands and pleasant
fields of Maryland. These are traversed by
bridges of wood or causeways on piles. At
each bridge the white tents of an encamp-
ment gleemed through the trees and foil.

ScrOfula, or Kings Evil,

is constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, il
pervades 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 scrofulous 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-
stitution, descending " from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation :" indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, Z" 1
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children"
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, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses
the energies of life, SO that scrofulous constitu-
tions 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 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 medicine we supply in

How a aPeaceY meeting Fell to Pieces

How a "Peace' Meeting Fell to Pieces.
A secession "peace" meeting was COM
menced at Borough Hall, in Stonington,
Ct, last Friday evening, Luther Ripley in
tho chair. He appointed a committee of
five on resolutions, of which only one mem
Der was a Union man. A set of resolutions,
said to have been prepared by Ephrim
Williams, Jr., late candidate for Secretary
of State, was read, They were very bitter
towards the administration, and down on
the "nnholy war" On being put to vote,
they were Ooted do,On almost unanimously.
The secession sympathizers Immediately
smelt an uncommonly large mice, seized
the lights and made stampede for the
door, when, (as the report in the Palladium
says,) "some went down stairs head foremost
and some on their backs, aided in their
flight by few Union boots, when two can
dies were found and the meeting continued" /"

The Manassas correspondent Of the s.

vannah Republican says:
am convinced Of one thing, that all this
talk about the federalists being starved, un-
clothed, and unenthusiastic is all fudge. We
canno. begin to compare with them in the
perfection Of equipments and general prep
arations. Their knapsacks were full, their
blankets are magnificent; their canteens
and other Conveniences are ingenious; their
medical accommodations are superb. II is
all fudge, too, about their enlistment from
coercion, and not knowing they are to fight
US. They tell us such tales to mitigate
their imprisonment. They are cute

Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla,

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 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 ERUPTIvE
and SKIN DISEASES, ST. ANTHoNY's FIRE,
ROSE, or ERYsIrELAs, PMPLEs, PUsrULEs,
BLoTcHEs, BLAINs and Bons, TUMoRs, letter
and SALT RHEUM, SCALD HEAD, RINowoRM,
RHEUMATISM, SYPHnITIC and MERcURIAL Dis
EASES, DRoPsY, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY, and,
indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITIA-
TED or IMPURE Blood. The popular belief
in " impwity 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.

CrIttenden,s Amendment.

Mr. Crittenden has improved since the
day in which he went about making com
promises. He now goes for making war.
At a speech at Columbus lately he said of
the war:
awe must meet it like men. 1t is not a
war that is to be prosecuted for the sake of
war, and ought to be conducted with none
of the common barbarites of war. Itmusl
nevertheless be prosecuted by no halfway
measures. My friends, we must gather the
utmost strength of the country, and grid
up the energies of our minds in this mo-
mentus contest. And let it be prosecuted
only for the purpose that it ought to be
carried on, and concluded for the restora-
ton of our government and the Union.
4
at becomes, therefore, duty to main
tain this great government and this mag
nifcent land from the terrible calamity OF
disunion. This would aim by all the pow
ers of my life to prevent. Hence it is that
/ have just come from voting millions Of
money and hundreds of thousands of men
and in order that the issue may be decided
more speedily and our erring brethren uni
ted to us once more. For, fellow citizens,
| believe we shall be reunited. And
have confidence in the belief that, instead
of destroying or even weakening us, this
war will make our Union stronger than ever
before"
These are the latest and best of Mr..
Crittenden's amendments.
