contamination is variously caused by mercurial
disease, low living, disordered digestion from
unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthv
habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by
the yenereal infection. Whatever be its origin,
If is hereditary in the constitution, descending
" from parents to children unto the third and
rod of Him who saws, will visit the iniqui-
ties of the fathers upon their children" The
diseases which it originates take various names,
according to the organs it attacks. In the
lungs, Scrofula produces tubercles. and nnaiiy
Consumption; in the glands, swellings which
suppurate and become ulcerous sores IN the
stomach and bowels, arrangements which pro-
duce indigestion, dyspepsia, and liver COM
plants; on the skin, eruptive and cutaneous
affections These ali having the same origin,
| require the same remedy, viz. publication and
invigoration of the blood. Purify the blood,
and these dangerous distempers leave you.
With feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you can:
not have health with that " life of the flesh

might be with safety to the Union.
Months of experience and of observa-
ton lave forced the conviction that the
existence of Slavery is incompatible with
the safety either of yourselves or of the
Union. As the system has gradually
grown to its present huge dimensions, it
were best if it could be gradually remov-
ed but it is better, far better, that it
should be taken out AZ once, than that it
should longer vitiate the social, political
and family relations of your country. |

yourselves.
Look around you and say whether this

your society.

WASHINGTON, January 8.
Elisha Whittlesey, of Ohio, long a men,
Der of Congress from Giddings' district,
and for sixteen years Comptroller of the
Treasury, died last night within a few
moments after he had retired to bed
He had been apparently in usual health,

had even been able to ride to Georgetown
in the afternoon. After making his entry
for the day in his diary, after his uniform
custom, he had retired, and expired lap

was adjusting the bedclothes about him
and before the ink on the last sentence
he had written in his diary was dry. He
was over eighty years of age. The funeral
services take place tomorrow afternoon.
after which it is expected his remains will
be taken to Ohio.-Special dis. TO the GIN.

Mr.. l.. A. Adgate.

We have heard thatit has been intimated
by some, that this gentleman, formerly OF
this place, has been doing voluntary ser
vice in the rebel army. The facts, as we
have them from a perfectly trustworthy
source, are as follows:
At the breaking out of the rebellion
Mr.. A. was a resident of Helena, Ark
Not dreaming of the extent of the trea-
son, and believing with thousands of 9TH
ers. that the virus had not so thoroughly
permeated the whole South, as subse-
quent events proved to be the fact, he de-
layed making his way to the North, until
communication was cut of.
When Helena was menaced by Gen
eral Curtis, Mr.. Adgate, with others
was impressed into the rebel service, and
given but one day to make provision for
his wife and child. During the succeed
ing night, his house, with all its contents,
was burned. 1t was four months before
he could effect his escape, which he final
ly did, from Des Arc, on the White river.
Through danger and privation, he made
his way TO the Federal lines, enlisted in
the 5th Kansas Cavalry. He has done,
and is doing, good service to his country.
We hope all from our county, who have
been South, and could not escape, can
show as fair a record.

Traitors in Ohio.

Yes, traitors in OhioI The disgraceful
fact is too palpable to be concealed. The
sentiments expressed by leaders of the
Democratic party, at their festival at Co
lumbus, on the 9Th inst, will forever
blacken the names of their traitorous au-
thors. 1t is an old but true maxim, that
out of the fullness of the heart the
mouth speaketh." Another saying has
also obtained very generally, hat drum
ken men will tell the truth" These
principles applied to the proceedings at
the 9Th of January festival at Columbus,
may explain why some of the old hard
nuts" present allowed the cloven foot to
protrude from under the himsy cloak of
pretended loyalty that covers their polit-
zeal r~ottenness and deformities. L. R.
Critchfeld, the Attorney General elect
Of the State, and a rabid butternut, while
under the inspiration of rot-gut, declared
he didn't believe one-half of the people
of the North cared whether Abe Lincoln
or JEFF Davis occupied the White House
IN washington
1t is quite probable that there are some
Is mean whelps as Critchfeld, who would
gladly greet JEFF Davis advent to Wash
ington. We are sorry the Democratic
party harbors SO many such r~ascals, and
that it encourages them in their treason
by bestowing favors upon them. Every
honest man, whether in or out of that
party, must be hopelessly blind by preju-
dice if he annot see where the leaders
Of Democracy are e~ndeavoring to lead the
masses, There is reason to apprehend
that the time is not remote when some of
the more reckless leaders of that party
wall come out boldly in favor of the South
ern Confederacy. Give this class of DEM
ocFats power in the State and General
Government, and the Nation will be sold
out to Davis & Co. in a fortnight. Let
every honest man reflect on the conse-
quences of following the lead of men
who are ready to betray their country
just as as they think they can do it
with safety to their gsllows-deserving
y ecks.
