Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

Is constitutional disease a corruption Of the
blood, BY which this fluid becomes yitiated,
weak, and poor. Being IN the circulation, II
peryades the whole body, and may burst out
Ia disease on any part Of It. No organ Is free
from its attacks, nor Is there one which II may
not, destroy. The scfofulous taint is variously
caused by ;inercurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy hRbits, the depressing vices, and,
above ali, by the venereal infection. What.
ever be It's 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, al
VI win Yisit the iniqldtes Of the fathers upon
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood Of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, Is termed
tpbercles; N the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores, This foul corr
rup6on, which genders In the blood, depresses
the energies of life, SO that scrofulous constitu-
lions not only. suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attaclSs Of other Diseases; conse-
quently vast iiunbers perish by disorders
which, although not serofulo \ in their nature,
ure still rendered fatal byyihis faint in the
system. Most Of the consumption which de-
cIpates the human family has is origin direotly
in this scroGlloss acontanimRron; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause. slf1s
One quarter Of all our people are scrofulous; !;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in-
fiction, and their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse 1t from the system we must renoyate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and In
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such medicine we supply in si7 10 oa5

Weare enabled here to offer the community a
remedy which, while it cures the above complaints
with certainty, Is still perfectly harmless y any
quantity. Such remedy is invaluable in districts
where these affecting disorders prevail. This
.CuRB" expels tho miasmatic poison Of FEVER
AND AauE from the system, and prevents the de-
yelopment Of the disease, n taken on the first ap
prpach Of its premonitory symptoms. Itisnot only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
Of complaints, but also the cheapest The large
quantity we supply for dollar brings 1t within the
FEVER AND AGuE prevails, every body should
have II and use II freely both for cure and protec
ton. A great superiority Of this remedy over any
other over discovered for the speedy and certain
cure OF Intermittents is that It contains no Quinine
or mineral, consequently 1t produces no quinism or
other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu
tion. Those cured by it are left as healthy as II
they had never had the disease. j. 3e'l ,eq
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence Of
the miasmatic poison. A great variety Of disor-
ders arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, lDeanatisn,, Gout, Headache, Blind

originating in this cause, put on the i,ltegmittent

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. It 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.. ANrHoNY's FIRE,
RosE, or ERYsPELAs, PDiPIEs, PUsruLEs,

indeed eALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITIA-
TED on IIruRH. BLooD. The popular belief
in ',i0puvity ofGis blood" is founded in truth,
for serofula is q degeneration of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa-
rila is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid,
without which sound health is impossible in
contaminated constitutions.

FIGHT NEAR SPRINGFIELD, MO.
Selqag's Command Destroyed'--- Gen. -Lyon onsoag Me A1Ncd!-S1r pie ce8 Artillery captured.
Anaong our Killed reported, are Captaim Brown and Bell, Lieut.. Jos. Wa1ton and Samuel Martin, Ag. Hmper, Lieut.. Ueapsr and Gen. Weigytman.

From telegraphc information received from Fayetteville, last gbt and this morning. we learn that battle was fought between the forces of G en- McCllloch and Gen. Lyon, on Saturday last about eight miles this side of Springfield. Our dispatch. es are meagre--but sufficient is ascertained to know that the federal troops were routed with great loss-Gen. Lyon was among the killed. Thewoun- ded and killed on our side was sconsiderable-amOng the reported kslied, are Capt. Il. Ihos Brown and Orderly Sergeant samuel Martin oi tie Van Buren Frontier Guard of this city, Lieut.. Jos. Walton, Fort Smith, Capt. Bell, f ayettevi,le, and Lieut.. Weaver, of Little Rock Artillery; Maj. Ward, of 3d regiment had his arm shot off and 1t was thought would die of the wound.
 By private letter, we learn that Major Haper, of Churchills regiment was killed, and that Capt. J. T. Stewards company suffered severe losses.
 We learn from Mr. Minhart, who left camp Sa- turday evening 5th inst:
 Lyon attacked MeCulIoch; the Confederate troops gained a signal victory. Confederate loss from 200 to 300 killed and between 400 and 800 wounded Federal loss 400 to 300 killed, and 600 to TOO wounded. It was expected that McCulloch would attack the federal forces at Springfield whither they had retreated the previous evening, Sunday morning. 3G or 40 of Col. DeRosy Car rolls regiment killed.
 The attack was made by suprise; our outer picket guards were taken prisoners and the enemy were enabled to get in on the main forces before they were really ready for them which no doubt is the cause of the great loss of life on our part.
 The running among our troops, was done by five regiments of Missourans. Gen. Price we learn, attempted twice to bring them to charge--but it could not be done, and they flew the field.
 The Louisiana regiment done gallantly and suf- fered much To them it is attrjbuteda a great nea- sure of success.

Address of Mrs. w. M. Aikin to the
 Izard Volunteers.

It gives me much pleasure to addresss the gal lant volunteers of our State and county, noble defenders of southern rights and independence; and I am proud of the occasion which justifes to do so. second time you have been called upon to test your courage and valor, and thank God in either case you have not been found wanting.- Truly our sunny South ought to be proud of her sons, when she knows how eagerly they have re- sponded to their country's call, how promptly they have gone to the battle field to avenge our wrongs and to drive the invaders from our homes and fire sides. All honor to the brave and true.
 take pleasure in presenting this flag to your gallant company; well knowing could commit it to no better hands. Eleven stars now deck it's blue field and feel assured at least, and hope can soon place the other three there. How happy l will be to do so you all we'll know. When you look upon it's waving folds, think, is it not em- blem of liberty of freedom? Yes my friends the liberty our noble foreathers shed their best blood for, that they ght transmit it to their children.
 "Oh liberty can man resign thee,
 Once having felt thy generous flame;
 Can dungeons bolts or bars confne thee,
 Or whips thy noble spirit tame?'
 Men of '6l, will you not emulate those heroes of '76? Will you not net prove that the same gener- ous blood flows through your veins, the same he roc fire animated your hearts and nerves your arms? feel assured you will. Liberty is dear as ever; and it now remains with you to decide our future fate. Oh, what esponsbility--what a privilige. Yet it is glorious one, and the God O battles who has mysteriously protected us so fal will, I trust, not desert us now. Then wben vol unfurl this banner in the battle feld let it ever b Ga beacon light to glory, and guide to victory
 Mothers, though it may be hard to part witl your sons, do not dissuade them from going to bat tie; rather be proud that you have sons to ofer- have little son whom dearly love, yet, oh l would wiring my heart, should he grow up and the prove to be coward or traitor to his country brave man is ever entitled to woman's respec and admiration; but co,card--forbib 1t heavel

that such should ever disgrace the soil of Arkan- sas. Wives our men were never more entitled to respect than they are now, and should they return victorious from the battle field, our hearts will throb with pride and pleasure, wewill welcome our heroes home, and know that we have men who have truly proved that they are both able and will ling to defend US when danger is near. Sisters your influence is greater over your brother than you may imagine; then never be the ones to dis courage them, bid them go and prove themselves worthy of the name of men. Let us tell them that though the bitter tears may flow, we will bless them, and prayers warm from loving hearts will ascend to the Most High for their safety and vel fare Then brave volunteers, go forth, let not those ruthless and insolent minions of the North polute our sacred soil, step by step drive them back, and let them feel that they have men, iron hearted men, and not pct lambs to deal with |" Then take our flag, let it stream on the air,
 Tho our fathers are cold in their graves, They had hands that could strike, they hand hearts
 that could dare;
 And their sons were not born to be slaves. Up, up with our banners where Ter it may call,
 Our millions shall rally around,
 nation of freemen that moment shall fall
 When it's stars shall be trailed on the ground"
 Volunteers, your cause is a noble one it is just and holy, may success crown your efforts, and may God bless you.

MOUNT OLIVE, July 27, 1861.

MOUNT OLIVE, July 27, 1861. EDITOR TRUE DEMocRAr:-
 SIR: I am writing to let you, and through you, the people know what old Izard has done, and is doing in these war times Although she sent Union delegate to the convention, she has regiment of troops ready to be mustered into ser vice; and the Rev. John l.. McCarver is now gone to Gen. Ben McCulloch to report the same.
 On the 4th of July, in Blue Mountain township, we had barbecue, and Capt. T. w. EdmOnson and Capt. Wm. M. Akin, both had independent cavalry companies After mastering, they urged the men to form infantry companies, which they did by electing w L. Lindsey captain; and after the organization of the company they were pre- sented with flag by Mrs. Akin, who delivered an eloquent speech. The flag was received in behalf of the company by Rev E. Mayfeld, who respond ed in touching and heart stirring language. Then | commenced the canvass for the regiment in earnest All kinds of opposition was thown in the way, bnt we now have six companies ill Izard county, and one from Fulton. They will rendevOuze at Mill Creek township, and be mustered into service of the Confederate army, and march to whatever place Gen. McCuloch shall designate.
 This is proud day for old Izard with voting population of ,250 she sends into the field a re- gment. It is but justice to say that the regiment | is mainly due to the untiring efforts of Hon. T. w. l Edmonson and Mir. Wm. NJ Akin. They began early in May to speak and ride, and urge thspeo- pie to volunteer and after struggle of two and q half months their efforts have been glorio usy crowned with success They had powerful auxil- liares in Rev John H. Mamn Rev F. May6eld. and several others.
 Please publish this as it is due to justice that old Izard should stand before the word as fully re- deemed from all suspicious of black republication.

Several copies of the New York Herald, which represented the federal loss at 20,- 900, abused their cowardly troops and incompetent commanders, denounced Lin coin and his cabinet, and uttered pierc- ing howl at the imminent danger that threatened Washington City, were procur- ed understand, among other accounts of the rout and groans of the North, by the couriers, sent by the French consul here to his government, and will soon be read both in France and England.
 Capture of 500 Indianians. The effects of ther demoralization still continue, and have recently shon them selves in most frightful form. On Sat urday a company of one hundred cavalry, accommodating in the vicinity of Alexan- dria, captured regiment of six hundred Pennsylvanians, who laid down their arms without firing shot, The surrender is regarded as virtual desertion, it being within their power to have either defended themselves successfully or escaped into Alexandria or Arlington.
 Advance of our army About twelve thousand of our troops are actively engaged in throwing up intrench- ments at Falls church, four miles this side of Alexandria, and an assault upon the city and advance of our army is daily ex- pected.
 Trains from Manassas still come freight ed with Yankee prisoners, many of whom are wounded. One hundred and forty ar rived by the last trains, of whom thirteen have since died of their wounds. The wretches were buried to-day. Truly, /" with bloody hands have, they been welcomed to hospitable graves"
 CAPTURE OF 700 PENNsyLvAN1ANs.
 Yesterdays letter furnished your readers with everything in the way of news which the telepraph brought to the city up to five D. m. The capture of TOO of the Indiana regiment, which I reported in yesterdays letter, was doubted in the streets last night l knew it to be true, for I'derived my in- formation from a dispatch received at one o'clock p. m. by a member of the cabinet. All doubt is put to rest to-day by the ar rival of the whole 700 in Richmond as pris- oners of war. Our city prisons, two of the largest tobacco factories in Richmond, are now filled, every story and every corner. The 700 Indiana Hessians had, therefore, to be sent few miles down the river, where there is large warehouse capable of containing some 1000 or 1500 more. These Indiana dogs are the most savage, unintelligent and stupid looking prsoners yet brought to Richmond.
