or Kings Evil,

is a constitutional disease, corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated:
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, il
pervades the whole body, and may burst GU,
in disease OH 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 mercural disease, low living, dis.
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, fill
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con.
stitution, descending " from parents to childrc,
unto the third and fourth generation indeed
it seems to be the rod Of Him who says. 81
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood Of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, il
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termec
tubcrcles in the glands, swellings; and or
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor.
ruption, which gcnders in the blood, dcpresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous consitu.
tons not only suffer from scrofulous com.
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks Of other diseases; conse-
quently vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not screfulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this faint in the
system. Most Of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its orr gin 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.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous ;
their persons arc invaded by this lurking in
lection, and their health is undermined by it.
10 cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine. and i'll
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.

CLEANING MILK VESSELS. correspond
ent Of the Cincinnati Gazette truly says,
there is no product Of the farm that pre-
sents so much difference as butter. This
arises chiefly from using vessels for hold
ing the milk, and utensils in making the
butter, which are soured. In my notice Of
the effects Of having sourcd troughs in SUI
gar-making, stated that acidity was fatal
to good sugar-making. 1t is not less so in
butter making. Milk has peculiar acid,
very easily formed, which entirely takes
away that rich, sweet, fine favor, belonging
to good butter. very little soured milk
or cream on vessels, rapidly degcncrates
enough acid to take it away. TO avoid
this, great care is requisite. Cleanliness
only is not sufficient, in having the milk
vessels we'll washed, but they must
be carefully washed in boiling hot water,
and should be boiled in it also. But as the
cream is very apt to stick even in good
washing, when the vessels are boiled in
water, some pearlash or soda should be put
in it, which destroys any acidity which
may be about the vessels. They should
then be well summed. have known some
good butter makers, who dispensed with
the summing when soda was used, but both
are to he commended.

My preventive is extra cheap. Wien

they had many ticks. But / reasoned that

Let farmers keep sheep improving all the

them. They require good sheds and they
