B6~ A dispatch to the Cincinnati Com
mercial announces that great excitement
exists among the diplomatic corps at Wash
by the Secessiousists on the British Consul
at Mobile. What is the nature of the out
rageis not stated. The Mobile papers are also
mum in reference to the matter. Our Govern
ment will soon find out that it will become
involved in row with foreign powers if it
does not take steps to maintain its authority
at home. England cannot look to Alabama
for redress of outrages without, in effect, ac-
knowledging the independence of that COM
monwealth and the validity of its secession
from the Union. Its complaints must of ne
cessity be made at Washington. What
will our government say to Lord Lyons I?
That coercion is a principle not recognized
| by the people of the United States Win
Mr.. Buchanan say he is very sorry the
transaction happened but it can't be helped
the citizens of Alabama can't be coerced ?
Perhaps the pious old functionary may sug-
gest to her majesty's minister that he will
resort to his usual remedy--prayer--and offer
up de yout petitions, not unmingled with
tears, that a similar outrage may not again
be committed by the sons of the South, but
further than that he can't go.
The English government will undoubted-
| ly hold US to strict account for all out
RACES committed upon its officials in the
Southern States No pitiful whining about
''invasion ofStates," or coercion" will salts
| fy that government while the violators of the
law are running at large Either Alabama
is portion of this government or she is
not If she is, then we are responsible for
the action of her citizens, and should com
pei them to obey the laws. II not, her in
dependence should be acknowledged al
once, so that her sins may be visited on her
own head.

SPEAK NOT UNKINpLY.


pitt NJ FINLEY JOHNSON
Speak not unkindly unto those
Who stray from Viitue's path
Nor pour upon their sinful heads
The walls Of thy wrath ;
For unkind worls but wound the SOUL
Breed misery and death
And oft destroy what good remains
By their pemcious breath.
wby tnrr 1, dark and fearful bate.
A warm and loving breast ...l
When kindly tones, like healing balm,
Would give unto it rest
WHY give reproof instead of praise,
A frown, and not IA smile
Why seek to plunge still more In vice,
Misfortune's sinful child ........ #
Upon this earth are erring souls,
Whose will is to do good,
If kindness only with its train
BY them in mercy stood
But when unto their broken hearts,
Unkindness adds its gall, r...s.'
Then spring 10 birth those seeds Of yico,
Which are within us all.
Then kindly act and kindly speak,
To those who go astray;
Let kindly tones like lamps of light,
Lead all in virtues way,
And ev r. soul which you may save,
Shall be ajewe rare,
To grace thy brow in Paradise, q
With endless glories there.

Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

is q constitutional disease II corruption Of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitatcd,
weak, and poor. Being i'll the circulation, it
puryades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on amy part OF it. No organ is free
from its attacks nor is there one which il may
not destroy. The scroiulUus tuhnt is varously
caused by mcrcurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above ali, by the venereal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
strtidii, descending " from parents TO children
unto the third and fourth gencraton;" indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, 81
will visit the iniquities OF the fathers upon
their Children
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulccrous matter. which, III
the lungs liver, and informal organs, is termed
tubcrclcs; i'll the glands, swcllinss; and on
the sluticc, cruptions or sores This foul cor
ruption, which gcndcrs IN the blood, deprcssos
the energies Of life, so that scrottllous constt,,
tions not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; consc-
qucntly vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature
are still rendered fatnl by this tant in the
systcna. Most of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination and rany
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 fo.d and exercise.
Such q medicine we supply i'll
