DEAD LETrLR SYSTEM ABOLISHED
On the o1st of January, 1862, the Pres
ident approved an act passed by Cong
ress authorizing the Post Office Depart
ment 10 return all dead letters to their
writers. The Post Master General was
OF the opinon that the revenue derived
from charge Of double postage on such
letters would more than equal the expen-
diture caused by an extra clerical force
ia The Department. Thus far the new
system (Which is like the English one
works very smoothly, and all letters not
reaching their destination, instead of be-
ing burned by the cart load, are now
carefully sent to the writers, and double
postage collected. OF course many non.
valuable letters are returned, but of their
value the writer, not the Department.

weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pcrvades the whole body and may burst out
i'll disease on amy part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one Which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is variousy
caused by mcrcural disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and
above all, by the venercal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
stituton, descending from parents to children

it seems to be the rod of Him who says, 81
VIII visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children.
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood OF corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, i'll
the lungs, liver, and internal organs is termed
tuberclcs; i'll the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, cruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses
the energies of life, so that scrofuous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, bat they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases: consc-
quemtly vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this taint in the
system. Most Of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly

destructive diseases Of the liver, kidneys. brain,

The HOG DIsEAsE.-TuE REMEDY
We learn that hogs are dying off at
wholesale all through the country. Hun
dreds die every day. One man in Win.
field township has lost about forty. 1t is
what is called the hog cholera, we believe,
and may be cured by apply ing the fol-
lowing remedy:
Take mixture composed of -four
pounds of sulphur, four pounds Of mad
der, two pounds of saltpetre, and two
pounds of black anthony. Give one Ia
BILE spoonful to each hog IN their swill,
after letting them get very thirsty. We
are indebted to Edwin Smith for the re-
cipe. A farmer who had lost large
number by the epidemic, applied the
above named remedy, with perfect sue
cess. -DQVehpoH Dem. 1871.
