MARRIAGE should be the foundation of social happiness, which is often disturbed through the panics that lona the union not taking those precautions which would secure them the enjoyment of that great domestic blessing. Amidst the melancholy variety of disorders under which human nature is known to suffer, there are nuns more alarming or more dis tressing than those which result from fashionable gaieties, early dissipation, sir solitary itremperance. Messrs. CURRIE and Co. beg to state that the sedulous at. tendon of a practice exclusively directed to the treatment and cure of CERTAIN COMPLAINTS, entitle them to the claim of superior acquirement. As regular burgeons they 'offer a speedy and permanent cure for every stage of that disorder, which is contracted to an unguarded moment, and which poisons the springs of life • and for every class of debility, which is the conse quence of juvenile indisaetioos, preventing the maturity of man hood, entailing by anticipation, en its unhappy victim all the in firmities of old age—the body becoming enervated and ema ciated—the cheeks yellow and bloodiess—and the Mind gloomy and delected. For the result of their success in this-partial.' lee branch, they refer to that reputation, which, they Ratter themselves, they have acquired, by SO Years experieswe, In a much Attended practice.

Pedestals the century, vadri their =ta ig a id ako gul a i j i mel t cht i ss f " ! c are I reMo: :er i te; any part of the ribrkiek-141, Hemostatic% At baptism they pray for the child. At the Chihrs Baptitnt, the Scripturta are rtad. At the baptism of the hell they pray literally fir tio bell. Xl. There are more psalms read st the Baptism of a Bel; _than as tie Baptism of a Ciiid o so 4-2 Cu3pvl also. Xtl. At • the Baptism of a Belli there are more Prayers used, and, ex cepting salv Atkin, greater things are prayed for,And more blessings on the Bell, than on the Child. But for the better proof of • this point, I s!tall here give part of one of the very curioAs prayers put up for the Bell at -its baptism : grant that wheresoever this holy Bell, thus washed [sir baptised] and blessed shalt sound, all deceits of Satan, all danger of whirivitntl, thunders, lightnings, and tanpests, may be driven away, and that devotion may anomie in Christian men when they hear it ! 0 LORD, sanctify it by thy holy spirit, th:: when it soucds'in thy people's ears they may adore - Thee! .May their faith and devotion increase, the Devil be.alraldrad tremble and By at the sound of it ! U I.OkD, pour upon.it thy heavenly Wow, that the fiery darts of the Devil may be made to backwards at the sound thereof; that it may denims. from danget of, wand and thunder, &c. And grant, Lord, that all that come In the chuich at the wuud of it may be free from all temptations Mate Devil. 0 1.09 D infuse into it the heavenly dew Of thy Hay Ghost, that the devil may always fly away before theacounsi of It, &c. &c. The doctrine of the Church of Rome tOncerning bells, is, first, that they have merit, and pray Gon•for the living and the dead ; secondly, that they produce devotion in the hearts of believers; thirdly, that they drive away storms and tempests; and fourthly, that they drive away devils. - The dislike of evil spirits to the sound of bells is'er. tremely well expresssed by Wynkin de Worths, in the Golden Legend :—" It is said, the evil spirytes that ben in the region of th' ayre, doubte moche when they here the belles rongen ; and this is the cause why the belles ribgen whan it thondreth, and whan grete tem• peste and outrages of wether happen, to the ende that the teinds and wycked spirytes should be abashed and flee, and cease of the movynge of tempeste." As to the names given to bells, I beg leave to add , that the bells of Little Dunmow Priory, in Essex, new cast A.D. 1501, were baptised by the following iamb t Prima in honore Sancti mmiaelie Archangel'. Secuada in honore S. Jeknoxis Evangelisti. Tertia in bonore 8. Jahaffais Quetta in honor. Assemptieau beat* Mole. • Quints in hams * Saadi Triiiratit, et omnium saneterens. In the dodder near Su Paul's stood the four great. est bells in. England, called Jeser's kilt j against these Sir Miles Partridge staked £lOO, and won them of Henry VIII. at a cast of dice. I conclude with remarking, that the Abbe Cancel. fieri, of Rome, lately published a work relative to bells, wherein he has inserted a long letter, written by Father Ponyard to M. de Saint Vincens, on the history of bells and steeples., The Abbe wrote this dissertation on the occasion of two bells having been christened, which were to be placed within the tower of the capital.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, ' aspteashar rt. it. M. E, At Chita Baptism, there are public Prayers made. On one of the Catholic festivals, when Pope Gait• assnim was preparing, as usoal, to exhibit the relics of their Saints from the gallery of St. Peter's, asto. dished at the multitude assembled below, he exclaim. t ed—" How do all these people get a living r' The learned Cardinal standing • neer him, and whops not . altogether unskilled in temporal matters, replied ip a whisper—J , Just as we: do—by thestibg 1" Thi •Revertind'Poistilf could scarcely Oppress a, inxik I end proceeded to suspend *sacred ces.ets. yak au I seesatesned devotion.
