Scroftila, or King's Evil,
b ft constitutional disease, a corruption of the blood, by which this lluid becomes vitiated, weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it pervades the whole body, and may burst out in disease on any part of it. No organ is free from ita attacks, nor is there one which it may not destroy. The Bcrofulous taint is variously caused hy moruariol disease, low living, dis¬ ordered or unhealthy food, in^puio air, filth and filthy habits, the deprcpsing vices, and, above all, by the venereal infection. SVhat- evcr be its origin, it i* hereditary in the con¬ stitution, descending *Ttora parents to children unto the third aud fourth generation;" indeed, itnecms to be the rod of Ilim who says, "J will visit the iniquities of the fatberrf upon thoir children."
Itfl effects commence by deposition from the Mood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, ia the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed tubercles; in the glands, ewellings; and on the surface, eruptiona or sores. This foul cor- fuption, which genders in the blood, depressci the energies of life, so that scrofulous conatitu- tionfl not only suffer from ecrofulouB com- plaintfl, but thcy have far less power to with¬ stand the ottocks of other dipcascs; conse¬ quently, vast niimlioro perish by disorders -which, although not HCi-ofuloua in their nature, «re etiU rendered fatal by Ihia taint in the System. Most of the consumption which de- oimates the human family has its origin directly in this BcrofulouB contamination ; and many destructive drscaBes ofthe Uver, kidneys, brain, and. Indeed, of all the organs, arise from or are aggravated by the same cause.
Ono quarter of all our people aro ecrofulous; their persons are invaded by this lurking in- fcctioti, and IhcJi health iri undermined by it. To cleanse it from the system wo must renovate ihe blood by an alterative medicine, nnd in¬ vigorate it hy licalthy food and exercia©. Suoh a medicine wc fiupply in

3stem from its dc.^tmctive consequences. once it ehould hc employed for the cure of not only scrofula, but also those other affcc- tione wliioh arise from it, such as Eruptivb and Skjn Dioe.vphs, St. ANXHOKv'fl Fire, Kesn, or EnvRiprtAfl, rmrLns, PrflTCLna, Blotches, Dlainq and Soils, Tuuobb, Tetter and Salt RarrM, Scii-D Heau, Rikgworm, Rhbumatibk, Stpuilitic and Mekcurial Dia- fe&BES, Dkop3y, Uvspbfsia, Dedilitv, and, indeed, all Co«plaist9 arisinq from Vitia<
