A Hymn for the Times.

Hear, Father, hear our prayer
For our oountry's sons tonight
For our patriot soldiers far or near,
Who have left their home and its comforts deal
To battle for the right.
Oh shield their heads from death
Oh keep their hearts from sinl
And help them over every foe
The victory to win.
Hear, Father, heart
Bless thou, o Father, bless
Yon sire so loving and true,
As, amid the war and its rude alarms,
He thinks of his children's clingmg arms
And his fond wife's adieu.
whate'er thy will shall bring,
o strengthen him TO bear;
And give him in his hour OF need
Courage 10 do and dare.
Bless, Father, bless
Save thou, kind Father, save
Wonder brave youth from harm;
Hear the mother praying for her son
The maiden for her plighted one
Turn thou their prayer to psalm
Bring him safe home TO bless
The dear ones Of his love-
Or II they may not be on earth,
Give them to meet above.
Save, Father, savel
Father, our leaders guide,
In the church, or state, or war;
Make each one quick to know thy will,
Firmly his mission TO fulfill,
And more than eonquerorl
Guide thou the people to-
o give us patient trust
In thee, and in our conntry's chief
The wise, the brave, the Just,
Guide, Father, guide
Peace, Father, peace we ask
OF thy wisdom to bestow.
When our whole duty we have done,
And Liberty and Union won,
And Treason's head laid low,
Then may the sword be sheathed,
Our land learn war no more,
And our flag with all its starry folds
Hang free from shore to shore
Peace, Father, peacel

During last night the army of the Potoma
evacuated their positions on the opposite sd

The movement was perilous one, Ml
was conducted in safety.
The artillery was the first to cross over q

The enemy never discovered the move uut
it was too late to do US any harm,
As soon as the last man had got sale

moved, thus cutting off communication B

There was a heavy W nd all last night, a

THE CROSSING OF THE RApPAHANNoCK.-
The Tribune correspondent says the slight re-
sistance that Gen. Lee offered to the crossing
of the Rappahannock seems to have been de-
signed and not a matter altogether of necessity,
as many were led to suppose. 1t seems
to have been ascertained to-day beyond
much doubt that jackson did not effect a juno
ton with Lee until Saturdaynight, and that the
quiet reception of our terrific cannonading was
simply to save ammunition and draw us nearer
to their formidable line of Notifications.

Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

u q Constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitia.ed,
weak. and poor. Being in the circulation. IL
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 mcrcurial 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 generation !" indeed,
it. seems to be the rod of Him who says, IL
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children"
It's effects commence by deposition from the
blood Of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, Is termco
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 censttu-
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 ny 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
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous (;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fiction. and their health is undermined by il.
To cleanse il from the system we must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
