Ii is well known to the medical profession that

iron is not taken into the circulation or becomes
reduced, the whole system suffers. The bad blood
will irritate the heart will clog up the Lungs, will
stupcfy the BRAIN will obstruct the liver, and send
its dscase-produting elements to all parts of the
system and every one will suffer i'll whatever organ
may he predisposcd to disease.

us to continue tho payment Of bouuties to

Of policy IS a very different one. | ask
the gentleman from Illinois to inform me
which course is to be adopted. / am sorry
to see in this resolution the indication Of
n timid and vacilIaling course. 1t is un.
worthy the dignity Of our Government
and our Army to use the conscription oct
as a scarccrow, and the bounty system as
a bait, 10 alternately scare and coax men
into the Army.
Let US give liberal bounlies to veteran
soldiers who may re'eniist, and for raw
