Everybody knows Mr. r. the rather
successful criminal lawyer of Philadel.

tact with which he usually succeeds in
elicitlug the truth from witness. He
once in a while, however, meets with
queer customer, with whom he can do
nothing whatever. Such one turned
up before committing magistrate on
Thursday last.
A Mr.. Doyle was complained of for
Keeping a disorderly house at Shipper
street, Tho complainant engaged K. to
attend to mis- case, and put Doyle thro'

examined was Cornelius O'Neil. We

to this answer, and desired the magis

did so.
"W hat do you mean when you say
the reputation of the house is bad?"
"That it has the DEVILS own chimney
and a roof that leaks like a sieve"
you still misunderstood me, O'Neil
Let us try again. What kind of people
visit the house?" liIf IDI
Men and women principally; at least
that's the only kind ever met there."

Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

is a constitutional disease, a corruption-of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vtiatcd,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, IL
pcryades the whole body, and may burst out
IN disease ON any part of IL. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor Is there ono which il may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint ~ variously
caused by mercural disease, low living. dis
ordered OF unhealthy food, impure air, Nth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above ali, by the vcncrcnl infection. What
ever bc It's origin, il Is hereditary In the con-
stitution, descending " from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation indeed.
Il seems to be the rod OF Him who says, IL
will visit the iniquitios Of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulccrons matter, which, in
the lungs. liver, and internal organs, Is termeo
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, oruptions sores. This foul cor
ruption, which gcnders in the blood, depresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous eonstitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous conn
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; consc-
quently vast numbers perish Ivy disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this faint in the
system. Most of tho 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 OF
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scroft,lous
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
lection, and their health is undermined by il.
To cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in-
yigorate IL by healthy food and exercise
