"1he Life Of The Flesh IS in the Blood" was
said by inspiration long before Harvey's dis
covery Of its circulation had brought to light Its
purposes and uses. Now we know not only that
"life is in the blood but that disease inhabits
it also. Many fthe disorders. that pervade the
human frame, have their home in it, thrive and
grow init. The celebrated DR.. j. C. Aver, of
Lowell, has had regard to this important fact in
making a Remedy to cure these disorders. His
Extract of Sarsaparilla purges out the impurities
ofthe blood and induces healthy action in it
that expels disease. This looks reasonable, and
it is true, for we know by own experience

The letter OF our London correspondent
dated the 9th inst, brings us an interesting
and important bit Of Intelligence. Tho Rebel
refugees, il seems, are in despair Of tho Con.
ledcracy, ard propose TO take care Of themselves
while there is yet time. Their plan is, according
to our correspondent. to run the blockade with
two fast steamers, lead them with cotton
bought with Confederate bonds, purchased
abroad, trusting to get back 70 England again
with their cargoes, on the proceeds Of which
they viii depend for their future maintenance.
Tho scheme is worthy of its leaders, Mason,
Slidcll, Maury and Others, who thus end then
career Of treason by bctraying their fellow
traitors. They will doubtless succeed, should
they get into q Southern port, in exchanging
their worthless bonds FOR good cotton, and
should they then be so fortunate in making The
outward voyage unmolested, its sale viii bring q
moderate competence to these double traitors.
No better proof can be given Of the forlorn state
Of their own fortunes, and Of tho estimate they
put upon the fortunes Of the Rebellion, than
that they should resort TO measure az once
desperate in itself and by which they propose so
basely TO cheat and abandon their associates in
this country. Should their plan become known
among the people Of the South, il would hardly
be safe for them to appear in any Southern city.
This publication Of il will reveal i. to Mr..
jeff Davis aud his associates, but whether
they will permit it to be made public
is question. Mr.. Davis may choose
that these returned refugees shall remain and
share the latc Of other Rebels; or, be may pre-
fer, on the other hand to share their Fate, take
a little venture in the cotton speculation, aud
embark for foreign travel. 1t would be en- in
teresting episode in the decline and fall OF the
Great Rebellion TO catch a blockadc-runner with
the Rebel Government and its two foreign en-
bassadors OH board. But even if Mr.. Davis and
his Cabinet shall not propose 70 take this risk ii
will be "notable feather" in the cap Of The man
who shall succeed in taking this steamer that
sailed from Falmouth for Bermuda about the 5th
INST, thence to proceed 10 some point on the
Southern coast. Our correspondent derives his
intelligence from such . source that there il no
reason for doubling its correctness.

The Leader probably refers to our preference
that this whole matter shouldsbe Lett with the
People rather than have their hands tied by q
constitutional amendment. Oar general idea
on this point is, that, supposing The People
qualified TO I'D q certain office, there should be-
very few restrictions on their choice. We
judge. for example, that legislators, especially
senator's, should generally be chosen from among
citizens of mOture years-better fifty years old
than younger; yet we should not approve a
constitutional provision that no man under fifty
should ever be sent to Congress. So, while We
think it viii seldom be advisable 70 reelect

prevent all such monopolies as that now enjoyed
by the Camden and Amboy Company, not in
New Jersey only, but throughout the country.
Let all such Companies be fairly notified that
bribing Legislatures to grant them monopohes
will be utterly futile-that Congress Will over
ride them, even should it be necessary, TO that
end, TO charter company to build road OUT

oppressive monopoly; but do it, if possible by
an act that will forever prevent the creation OF
such another.
