eonts nination is,variously caused by ymcrrural
disease, low living, disordCrcd digestion from
unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy
habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by
the venercal infection. Whatever, bc its origin,
it is hereditary in the constitution, descending
from parents to children uuto the third and
fourth generation; F" indeed, it seems to be the
rod of Him who says, al will visit the niqni-
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, swclings which
suppuratc and become lilcerous sores in tho
stomach and bowels, arrangements which pro
dHce indigestion, dyspepsia, and liver com
plants; on the skin, crnptive and cutaneous
affections. + Those all having the same origin,
require the same remedy, viz. parItivation and
invigoration Of the blood. Purify the blood,
and these dangerous ldistcmpers leave you.
With feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, YOU can
not have health with that - life of the flesh
healthy, you cannot have scrotulouS disease.

Ayers Sarsaparilla

Is compounded from the most cGcctunl anti
| dotes that medical science has discovered for
this affecting distcmper and for the cure of the
disorders it entails That it is far superior to
any other remedy yet devised, is known by all
who have given it Il trial. That It does com.
bne virtues truly extraordinary in their effect
upon this class of complaints, is indisputab:y
proven by the great multitude Of publicly
known and remarkable cures it has iRatlc Of
the following diseases Kings Evil Or
Glandular Swellings, Tumors, Erup-
tions, Pimples, Blotches and Sores, Fry
sipelas, Rose Or St. .Anthonys Fire, Salt
Rheum, Scald Head, Coughs from tu-
berculous deposits in the lungs, White
swellings, Debility, Dropsy, Neuralgia,
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Syphilis and
Syphilitic Infections, Mercurial Diseases,
Female Weaknesses, and, indeed, the Whole
series Of complaints that arise from impurity
A of the blood. Minute reports oi individual
cases may DO found in AYERS AMERICAN
ALMANAC, which is furnished to the druggists
for gratnitous distribution, wherein may bS
learned the directions for its use, and some OF
the remarkable cures which it has made when
all other remedies had failed to afford relief
Those cases are, purposely taken from all sec
tons Of the country in order that every reader
may have access to some one who can speak K
him of its benefits from personal experience
Scrofnla dcpresses the vital energies and thu
leaves its victims far more subject TO diScaS'
and its fatal results than are healthy consita
tions Hence it tends to shorten, and doe
greatly shorten, the average duration Of human
life. The vast importance of these considcra
tions has led us to spend years in pcrlecting
remedy which Is adequate to its cure. Thi
VIC now offer. to the public under the name O
AYERS SARsAPARILLA, although it Is com
posed Of ingredients, some Of which exceed ih
best of SarsIpariRd in Alternative power. B.
its aid you may protect yourself from the suffer
ing and danger of thcso disorders. Purge on
the foul corruptions that rot and tester in III
y blood; purge out the causes Of disease, an
vigorous health will follow by its pecua
virtues this remedy stimulates the vital iunc
tions, and thus cxpelS the diStcmpcrs wllic
r lurk within the system or burst out on an
+ part OF it. ..,..,.....
I We know the public have been deceived b
( many compounds of Sr@puilhi, that promise
n much and did nothing; but they will neither l
d deceived nor disappointed in this. Its virtue
have been proven by abundant trinl, and tci
remains no question Of its surprising cxccllcnt
for the cure Of the affecting diseases it is il
y tended to reach. Although under the sam
q name, il is II very different medicine from an
e other which has been before the people, md
far more cffertual than any other Which HI

Nomination Of Lincoln for Re-EleCa
ton.

We fiEd the following paragraphs in the
E'rening Telegraph, an Administration
paper of Philadelphia, written for a differ
ent purpose, but SO entirely applicable to
the aiming of our late Presidents for re-
election, and especially to the course pur-
sued by LINCOLN for the purpose of sus-
tanning his party and securing to himself
the Presidency for another term, that we
are sure our readers will appreciate the
force of the 7elegraph's comparison:
In the pristine and better days of the Repub-
lie men were selected for high stations on ac-
count of their acknowledged and superior tit
ness for them. Washington, OF whom it was
truly said that he was 8 first in war, first in
peace, and first in the hearts OF his country
men" was twice made President OF the United
States, at period when the country boosted
of a host Of patriots and statesmen, any one
of whom would be to-day conspicuous above
all contemporaries.
Rnt it was Washington's universally recOg-
nized virtues as a man, and his abilities as a
statesman, that won for him the popular re-
GARD that secured for him the distinguished
positions he held in the military and civil SER
vice of the nation. He owed nothing to party
politics. He was not politician in the mod
ern sense of the term, and had no political par
tisans and prostitutes to magnify him into fic-
| titious importance, and secure for him official
trusts not commanded by his own proven and
recognized deserts The same may be said
with nearly equal truth of the elder Adams,
jefferson, Madison, and Monroe 3
But since then the times have changed, and
changed for the worse. Instead of regarding
men as made of Offices we regard offices as
| made for men, Thns fhe pnhl;o sarvica and
the public welfare have been rendered subordi-
nate to the aggrandizement of individuals and
the parties devoted to their interest. With the
advent of this low code of political ethics came
in, of course, that disgusting maxim that, ito
the victers belong the spoils, and from that
| date parties have been organized to secure
| power for the sake of its emoluments, rather
| than with q view to place power in the hands
of those men who are wise enough to use il
! intelligently, and yirtuous enough to employ
it only for the honor and prosperity'of the
country.

So far as reported, the following allot-
ments have been made by the companies
named below:

MOSt OF the men VINO nave made these
allotments have also left the larger part of
their bOunties with their families. They
deserve to be commended and encouraged
in thus making provision for those depend
ent on them, and we feel assured that men
who are thus faithful to their parents or
wives and children, will always be among
the most faithful defenders of the cause of
their country.
The allotment system is in itself admira-
BILE, as affording safe and usually prompt
means by which soldiers can remit part
of their pay TO their families, without
charge. 1t il, directly recognized and en-
couraged by tit. War Department, and has
proved of The greatest advantage to the
soldiers of every State. In Wisconsin, the
young soldiers who had no one dependent
upon them for support, generally took adj
vantage of this system to make their State
Treasury a depositary of their savings.
When the Thirtieth Wisconsin (four COM
panies) passed through this city recently,
we saw numbers of the young men Of that
regiment who had their State Treasurer's
check for $40 to 800, and even more,
representing their savings by monthly al
lotments. ...--
AS managed in this State by Mr.. SouEF-
ru, Cko+o T,oo,r,o, onl ~, n NE.
POWER, the allotment system grows in
favor as fast as it becomes understood
among our soldiers to be, what it is, gen.
erous provision by National and State au-
thorities to provide the soldier, without
cost to him or his family, with an entirely
safe way of transmitting funds home to be
paid to his relatives or to his own credit,
! as he directs.
