contamination is variously caused by mercurial
disease, low living, disordered digestion from
unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy
habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by
the vcnercal infection. Whatever be its origin,
it is hereditary in the constitution, descending
"from parents to children unto the third and
fourth generation; !" indeed, it seems TO be the
rod of Him who says, " / 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 finally
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, cruptive and cutaneous
affections. These all having the same origin,
require the same remedy, viz. publication and
invigoration of the blood. Purify the blood,
and these dangerous distempers leave you.
