weak, and poor. Being in the circulation. II
pervades the whole body and may burst out
III disease OH any part of Il. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor Is thsre one which II may
not destroy. The scrofulous taint is yariously
caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vicos, 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,
1t seems to be the rod OF Him who says, III

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-
tons not only SITTER from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; ccnse-
quendy vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
arc 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. ZIG

fiction, and their health Is undermined 6y It.

10 the position OF the clergy, who have joined In
the public clamor for war. We make no dis
tinction between the North and the South In
this respect. The awful responsibilities which
rest upon the acknowledged guides of the con-

calmer moments Of reflection come over them.
That In too many instances it has proceeded
from motives of personal ambition rather than
mistaken patriotism, cannot be doubted, The
opportunity afforded BY q pulpit and an audience
TO become Q leader in a great public demonstra.
tion, presents temptations difficult TO resist, and
the temptation once yielded to, the unhappy
victim loses reason and Judgment. The facility
with which old and holy truths are forgotten or
explained away, the eagerness with which texts
are hunted up in the Old Testament by way of
Justification Of, violence, the terrible Ingenuity
with which, the wotds Of the Saviour and His
apostles are distorted into phrases Of varlike en-

We are enabled here to offer the community a
remedy which, while it cures the above complaints

the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
quantity we supply for dollar brings it within the
reach OF every body; and in bilious districts, where
FEVER AND AouI prevails, every body should
have it and use it freely both for cure and protec-
ton. A great superiority Of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain

or mineral consequently 1t produces no quinisn
other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu-

immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malarious districts. Iftaken ocea-

bined from the most active remedials that have
been discovered for the expurgation Of this foul

entered into an arrangement with Major Gen.
g. B. Mcclellan, Commander of the United
States troops In the States north of the Ohio
river, to the following effect;
The authorities of the Stite Of Kentucky are
to protect the United States property within the
limits Of the State, to enforce the laws of the
United States in accordance with the intepreta-
tions Of the United States Courts, as far as those
laws may be applicable to Kentucky, and to en-,
force with all the power of the State our obliga'
tions Of neutrality as against the Southern
States, as long as the position we have assumed
shall be respected by the United States.
Gen. Mcclellan supulates that the territory
Of Kentucky shall be respected on the part of
the United States, even though the Southern
States should occupy 1t; but In the latter case
be will call upon the authorities of Kentucky TO
remove the Southern forces from our territory.
Should Kentucky fail to accomplish this object
in reasonable time, Gen. Mcclellan claims
the same right Of occupancy given to the South.
ern forces. have stipulated In that case to
advise him of the inability OF Kentucky to com
ply with her obligations, and TO invite him to
dislodge the Southern forces. He stpulates
that II he Is successful in doing 90, he will with
draw his forces from the territory of the State,
as soon as the Southern forces shall have been
removed.
This, he assures me, is the policy which he
will adopt towards Kentucky.
Should the Administration hereafter adopt q
different policy, be Is to give me timely notice
Of tie fact. Should the State Of Kentucky
hereafter assume different attitude, he Is in
like manner to be advised Of the fact.
The we'll known character Of Sen. Mcclellan
is euficent guaranty for the fulflment of
every stipulation on his part. ..

Crops
Wheat was cut in La Grange, Ca, on the
18th ult. eiaFH
The farmers of Ohio are putting in seed
of the Chinese sugar cane, for the purpose
of having supply Of sugar and mOlasses
Independent of the South.
The wheat crop of England, in 1860, was
the poorest known in twenty-five years
Not much better is expected for the year
1861. 7ss ss
WHEAT PRosPEcr-0ur observation in
Seneca and other counties satisfies us that
We will have fair crop of wheat this year,
il the weather continues favorable. The
cold, wet spring has retarded its growth,
very much, and in some places drowning it
out entirely; but it is now coming on very
fast-has a good healthy appearance, and
will, we think, produce an abundant crop.

Poor CRoP PRosPEoTs IN TENEEssEE.-
The Tennessee papers are q little dubious
about the success Of the hay and corn crop.
They have intelligence that the army worm
is making sad havoc in the meadows all
over the State, and the cut worm has at
tackled the corn to such an extent that in
some localities farmers hAVs plOughed up
their fields and are re planting. The wheat
crop has now nothing to fear but the rust.
The Chicago Tribune Of June 9th, re-
marks thus in reference to the crops at the
West;
During the past week the weather has
been moderately warm, and highly favora
BILE for the growth Of the wheat crop, which
is reported as looking we'll all over the
Northwest-both winter and spring. The
corn crop is backward, and, indeed, in
some sections the farmers are still plant
ing; but they nevertheless express them
selves hopeful of fair crop. With good,
warm weather in the latter part Of June,
and in July and August, there is no dan
ger.
According to sdvices received from va
rious portions Of Illinois, Wisconsin and
Iowa, it is highly improbable that the
breadth of wheat and corn soWn and plant
ed viii exceed two thirds Of the operations
Of last year. The unfaVOrable weather
during the spring months tended very much
to limit the work of the farmers, and the
war excitement also drew from the country
q large amout Of valuable labor at time
when it was much needed.
The winter wheat crop, however, will
probably be the heaviest known for some
years back, and will, in a measure, atone
for the deficit in the spring crop. -sa
