tarfH Will admit OF Certain ktndo OF goods
being imported without loss; but IL is generally
surmsed that the list Of such goods will prove
small. The intention OF the new tariff was to ex-
clude the bulk of the foreign goods with which
this country has been inundated for che past TWEEN
ty years, and to pay for which our specie has been
drawn from MS as fast as IL has been pro.
duced in California. Unless the trainers Of that
tariff have been grossly mistaken, il will be found
that it will achieve its purpose. and that the bulk
of foreign dry goods and hardware imported from
Europe since IL became law viii net loss to the
importers In the meantime, tho wheat crop Of
the present year will probably prove the largest
ever reaped in the country. The corn crop pre-
misses to be equally bountiful. Farmers are so
well satisfied Of tho fact that they arc hurrying
| to market all the wheat and corn remaining over
| from last years crop. In Europe, on the other
l hand, each successive mail confirms tho report Of
| a scanty harvest. In England, France, Germany
and Prussia, the wheat crop is decidedly short Of
an average, and the prospect 10 that Europe will
require from us all the food that can be exported
| between this and The harvest Of 1868. ~
Gold declined last week to about ll21I at the
close. The speculation in gold has long since
ceas, 70 be attractive 70 operators. and return
i ing confidence is losding to the sale Of large
l hoaros which were laid up at time when the na-
| tional pr. spect looked gloomy. Gold will pro-
| badly continue to rule at premium until the 60
| yernrncnt aud the banks resume specie payments;
but in the absence Of distressing news from the
army and likewise Of an export demand, the pre-
| mum cannot be large. If all goes right with our
| armies nj, 10 -orious disasters occur, we shall
probably ucss u steady but Sow decline IN the
rrecisus lretsi fos some weeks " come.

Extract OF SarSaparilIa,

he most ~elTectual remedy which the medical
skill of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malady. 1t is COM
bined from the most active remodials that have
been discovered for the e%xpurgation of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it should be employed for the cure Of
not only S~crofula, but also those other affec-
tons which arise from it, such as ItnupTIvE
and SKIN DISEASES, Sr. ANTHoNy'S FIRE,
RosE, or ERysIPELAs, PIMpLEs, PusTuLEs,
BLoTcHEs, BLAINs and BorLs, TuMoRs, letter
and SALT RHErN, ScALD HEAD, RINGwoRM,
RHEUMATISM, SyrHIL1rIC and MERcrRIAL Dis
EASES, DRoPsY, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY, and,
indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITA
TED OR IMPURE BLOOD. The popular belief
in "inptgity Of the blood" is founded in truth,
for s~crofula is a degeneration of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue Of this Sarsapa-
lila is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid,
without which sound health is impossible in
contaminated constitutions.

is a constitutional disease, q corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiatcd.
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pcrvades the whole body, and may burst out
III disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy. Tie scrofulous faint is variously
caused by mcrcurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the ~vcnereal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
s%titution, descending {" from parents TO children
unto the third and fourth generation !" indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, 81
VIII visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their Children
Its effects by deposition from the
blood Of corrupt or u~lcerous 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 suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
quCntly vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous 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 origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, OF all the organs, arise from or
arc aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are sc~ofulous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking IN
and their health is undermined by it.
70 cleanse it from the system we must renovate
he blood By an alternative medicine, and in
igorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such u medicine we supply in

Headache, ana Bilious Feyers, indeed
for the whole class OF diseases Originate

the Malaria OF rIiasnnatic Countries.
We are enabled here to offer the community a
remedy which, while it cures the above complaints
with certainty. is still perfectly harmless in any
quantity. Such n remedy is invaluable in districts
where these affecting disorders prevail. This
"CCRE" cXpels the miaSmatic poison Of FEVER
AND AGUE from the system, and prevents the de
velOpmcnt Of the disease, if taken on tie first APP
proach of its premonitory symptoms. tits not only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
of complaints, but also the cheapest. The large
quantity we supply for a dollar brings it within the
reach Of every body and in bilious districts, whore
FEVER AND AGUE 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
cure of Intcrmittcnts is that it contains no Quinine
or mineral, consequently it produces no quinism or
other injurious effects whatever upon the c~onstitu-
ton. Those cured by it are left as healthy as il
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence OF
the miaSmatic poison. 4 great variety of dlsor-
ders arise from its irritation, among which are
NeayaAgiq. Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blind
ness, IOoNache, EaTdche, Cdtayyh, dSkhma, Pal
~pitqtion, Painful affection Of the Spleen, Hgatcr-
les, Pain an the Boacek, Cole, Paralysis and De-
rangement Of the Stomach, all of which, when
originating in this cause, put on the Intermittent
tine, or become periodical. This "CURE" eXpel
the poison from the blood, and consequently cures
them all alike. 1t is an invaluable protection TO
immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malariouS districts. If taken occa-
sionally or daily while exposed TO the infection,
that will be excrcted from the system, and cannot
! accumulate in sufficient quantity 10 ripcn into dis
case. Hence it Is even more valuable for protec-
don than cure, and few will ever suffer from Inter.
mittents if they avail themselves of the protection
this remedy affords.

THE FIELD AFTER THE FIGHT.

A visit to the field Immediately ate,
the retreat of the rebels, and the pursui,
Of our forces, exhibited a spectacle sell
dom to be witnessed and more horrible
to contemplate. The first approaches,
occupying the further range of the enc
my's guns showed at the first glance the
work OF devastation made by those balls
and shell which bad over shot the mark.
Large trees were entirely cut off within
ten feet from the ground, and heavy
limbs lay strewn in every direction, and
pieces OF exploded missiles were scatter
ed all around. The carcasses Of dead
horses, and the wrecks of wagons sire "
ed all the woods, and other evidences Of
similar character marked every step Of
the way.
Half p mile further on, and the more
important feature Of the struggle was
brought to view. Dead bodies in the
woods, the dead and dying in the fields,
lying in every conceivable shape, met the
gaze on either hand. Some lay on their
back with their clenched hands raised at
arms length, upright in the air. Others
had fallen with their guns fast in their
grasp as if they were in the act of load
ing them when the fatal shaft struck them
dead. Others still had received the
winged messenger Of death, and with
their remaining strength had crawled
away from further danger, ard sheltered
themselves behind old logs, had laid down
10 die. Here were the bodies of those
who had fallen in the fight of Yesterday,
and mingled with them were those from
whose wounds the blood was yet trickling
away. The scene beggars all descriD.
ton, and | do not wish TO attempt to de-
piet It's horrors. The fatality on the open
space | have referred to as the "Baltal.
ion Drill Ground" was the greatest
which came under my observation. This
execution was done by Taylor's Chicago
battery.
The canister which had swept it over
during the morning had been terrible in
its results. Strongly contested as its
possession bad been by both sides, yet
the dead were as five 10 one on the side
Of tho rebels. One man here was in a
bent position, resting on his hands and
feet, with his face downward, yet cold
and rigid as marble. One had crawied
away to the border Of the woods, and en-
sconding himself between two logs, had
spread his blanket oyer him TO shield
him, perhaps from the rain Of the preyi-
Gus night. He was a wounded rebel, and
pitifully asked "if wo could do anything
for him ?" At his feet lay the body Of
one Of those Union boys have spoken Of
as having had his hair burned from his
head. On i~nterrogating the rebel as to
the cause Of his being in such a condi-
ton, his only reply was, 81 do not know
i did not do it," We assured him
that an ambulance would soon be at hand
TO take him to better quarters, and left
him.
The larger guns had done some strange
work. One case | saw where the entire
lower portion Of a mans foot had been
carried away, leaving TO toes and the up
per portion remaining. Another had
been struck BY a bullet on the forehead,
lnd the missile had followed the curve Of
the Lead entirely around to the termiaa
