this certificate. My son having been &C.
verely afflicted with Scrofula for the last
two years-so much so that he has been

1t has acted like II charm-increased his
appetite, purified and enriched his blood.

with running sores, from which many
pieces of bone worked out, yet, to my great
astonishment, all except one has healed
up. A few more bottles will accomplish n
radical cure. regard your medicine a
wonderful panacca, and should be gene

THE FUTURE of AMERICA.

DR.. DRAPER has written what he calls a
History of the American Civil War"
The first volume only has been published,
and is principally taken up in examining
the causes proximate and remote Of the
late conflict. Tho remaining two volumes
may, perhaps, have something to say about
the war itself We do not always agrce
with DR.. DRAPER; indeed, we very often
SEQ cause to differ from his deductions and
speculations. Long habits of study in the
several departments of physical science
have had tendency of making him look
too much to physical causes as tho great
movers of human destiny. We have no
ticcd this inclination to fatalism and mate
rialism in some of the authors former
works, but tho present book is more thor
oughly tincturcd with it than any of its
predecessors. AS might be expected, he
il frequently mistaken, not to say unjust,
in his estimates Of the Southern character
Although DR.. DRAPER affects the highest
style Of historical criticism, and not unfrc-
quently is true md fully equal to his aim,
ho sometimes allows his sectional political
party feelings to influence his Judgment
ms 4 historian. In the statement Of the
causes of the difference Of indiyid'.rl char.
actcr between the Northern and tho South
ern citizens of the United States, and tho
political superiority the latter naturally
gained over the former, DR.. DRAPER, VIC
think, falls far short Of what was we'll and
handsomely said long ago by DR.. CHAN
MING on the samo subject.
But DR.. DIS book has n good
which VIC hope will be needed n "A NcS

exist in other relations, and will in u s
exert their deletcrious power. NJ
mcnts of strife are inherent in the PHI
and political organization of the country,
and will, sooner or later, manifest them
selves in other FORMS Varieties of climate
and opposing interests will tend to renew
thc old contest on different issues. The
American republic, in process of time, will
have Persia, an India, Palestine, Tar
tary Of its own. In order to concentrate
into one nation such widely different men,
who, though all of American birth, repre-
sent tho nationalities Of Europe, Asia and
Africa there will be demanded n nure and
lofty craftsmanship, founded not on plausi-
bic expediency, or shallow compromises.
but on the principle Of exact and universal
justice. Tho stars, in their heavenly
courses, are guided by immutable law, and
the families Of men on earth are judged
with rigid equity.
