ScIo14ulla, or Kin Els EVIL,

IS constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, hy which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being III the circulation, it
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 faint 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 gencration; ~ indeed,
it seems to be the rod OF Him who says, 81
viii visit the iIliquitie5 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; i'll the glands, sweliings; and on
the surface, erupton5 or sores. This foul cor
ruItion, which genders in the Blood depresscs
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constltu
tons not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to With
stand the attacks of other diseases; consa-
qUently vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrohllous i'll their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this faint in the
system. Most Of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has it's origin directly
in this serofulous contamination; and mhnyr
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, Of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause. E
Onequarter Of all our people are scrofillous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fiction, and their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an alternative medicine, and in- o
vi5orate it By healthy food and exercise
Such a medicine we supply in

R Our friend of the Muscatine Journal

s% Our friend of the Muscatine Journal
is far from showing any great degree of anna
bility concerning the operations OF the War
Department of this State, and represents the
Jealous feelings which Muscatine holds to-
wards Davenport, admirably. We presume
it was from no i'll feeling toward that smart
little place that Davenport was selected as a
place of rendezvous for several regiments, in
stead of Muscatine. Surely it would have
been the sheerest nonsense to have made
both points, so near together, places of rem
devious; and as Davenport possesses the
most advantages, it is not at all strange that
to this place was given the preference, even if
the respective merits of each had come in
question. We advise the Journal to keep
just as easy as it can about the matter, for it
is not altogether likely that there will be any
changes made right away.-Dar. Dem.
A friend at our elbow has taken the trou.
BILE to figure up the amount Of money tina
might have',been saved to the State in the
transportation of troops, if the rendezvous
had been at Muscatine instead of Davenport.
He makes it but little short of three thousand
dollars. Two-thirds of the troops that have
been Eendezvoused at Davenport passed
through this city, or within twelve miles of it,
on their way to camp; and all of them have
to pass this place again on their way to the
seat of war. We have only the ipse DIRT
of the Democrat that Davenport possesses
most advantages" Muscatinc is thirty miles
nearer The centre of the State than Daven-
port, and the same distance nearer the seat of
war. Muscatine has railroad communication
in two directions within the State-Daven-
port only one. Muscatine has equally as
good telegraph communication as Davenport
while for eligible situations for camps, and
for means Of sustaining the trooos, its adj
vantages are even superior. We submit to
the taxpayers Of Iowa, therefore, whether we
have no other reason than Jealous feeling
in Directing to the rendezvous of troops at
Davenport.

meet Major Zagonyi, and who returned early
this morning with his report. ..a..... =.
The attack was made from the Mount Yer
non road, Judge Owens, Of Springfield acting
as our guide! Upon approaching the town,
about half past eleven, yesterday, Friday
the rebel force was found drawn up ON COM
manding elevation in front of their camp
In order to get at them, it was necessary for
the Guard to charge down a narrow lane and
level high fence which INSTRUCTED our path,
under the lire otfthe enemy. Although suf-
terlng somewhat severely, they successfully
accomplished that feat, and then charging
upon the rebels, they scattered them in all di-
rectiOnS. t.ts HJl5F' .t' 7f...l
They continued retreating on into town,
where some sharp fighting took place, many
of the rebels being here killed. We succeed
ed in clearing the streets Of all the enemy
that appeared and then proceeding to the
military prison, released all of our prisoners
held at Springfield since the Wilson Greek
affair.
Subsequently the Stars and Stripes were
raised over the Court House.
AS by this time the rebels had rallied in
large numbers, and his force being insufficient
to hold the city, the Major thought it best to
retire. Before entering the town the Major
had been informed that the place was held by
1920 men, and that he must act with eau
ton. q, he Major, however, is one of the ire
prcssiblc kind, and he was bound to make the
attack at all hazards-and did So It proved,
like Thompson's dash into Fairfax, a very
brilliant affair; but also, like that, without
any decisive result. -
Col Pierce, an Arkansas man, was in COM
mand Of the rebel force at Springfield. 1t is
supposed that there is q valuable quantity of
plundered goods there, which accounts for the
large body of soldiers left there to guard the
place.
The loss sustained by the Body Guard is
thought to be about 15 although some Of the
missing may yet turn up. Quite a number
of the horses were also killed
The rebel loss is not known, but it is
thought to be close upon a hundred, as the
charge upon them is terrific. Gel. Richard
son says he thinks the sabres of the Body
Guard were brought into good requisition,
