For these and other Life-boat services the Institution has
voted £2,158 as rewards 10 the crews of its Lifeboats. It has
also granted re wards 'mounting to X 572 for saving 5h2
Qhipwrecked persons, by shore-boats and other means, mak-
ing a total of 1,302 persons saved from a watery grave during
the ',mit two years and a half.
The number of lives saved by the Ltfe-boats of the
Society, rid other means, since its formation, is 12,690;
for which services 82 Gold Medals, 713 Silver Medals, and
£16,01 0 in cash have been paid in rewards. The Institu-
tion has also expended £64,30. on Life-boats, Life-boat
Transporting-can iages, and Boat-houses.
The public cannot but sympathise with the vigorous efforts
now being made by this Institution to save the lives of Ship-
wrecked Crews. Their help was never more needed than at
'he present time, when, through the extraordinary exertions
'he Society has made within the past few years, it has now
one Hundred and Twenty-three Life-boats under its man-
vement, or the maintenance of which, in a state of thorough
fheiency, a large permanent annual Income is absolutely
needed, if its humane mission is to be perpetuated.

THE CAUSES of PREMATURE DECAY.—
Authors of eminence have ascribed the decline of the
Roman empire to the effeminacy of manners, which precluded
resistance ; and this effeminacy they trace chiefly to vicious
habits acquired in early life, by which, in our own time, an
influential journalist has endeavoured to account for the de-
cline of population in the Asiatic provinces of Turkey.
The peculiar source of physical and moral degeneracy al-
luded to has at all times been specially deprecated by philo-
sophers and philanthropists. It besets inexperienced youth,
laying the foundation of future misery, poisoning the nuptial
cup with bitter malignity; destroying health, curtailing life,
and making it, during its brief career, a scene of anguish, from
the consciousness of humiliating infirmity.
The evil is but too rite in our age and oountry ; and expe-
rience can often discern the sad results in the early deaths,
the hereditary and perpetuated ailments, and the matri-
monial discords and scandals, described, in convential par-
lance, as " unaccountable" and "mysterious." In cases of
threatened injury to or suspension of faculties whose sound-
ness and vigour form su-h a prominentconstituent in human
happiness, sufferers may have their fears removed, the mis-
chief, however severe and inveterate, eradicated, and their
warmest hopes of restoration to life's prerogatives fully
realised
