One half the world are desolately single, and the other
iupposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
s:tter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret an-
zomprosirt harry; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
end broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justicedentand that health shouldform an item
in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
,hese surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little
‘IEMOIRS "On Single and Married Life, " pub. in 2 vols., Is.
?Itch (by oust, in stamps, Is. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively
refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
oy misinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining
them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle curiosity, but
.r the closet perusal of those mere deeply interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on
the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or
together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
'ttle publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,
by post Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
avoid," and " How to be nappy." They are not merely
ylmphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's
'lie, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this oh-
iervance of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as he
would be done unto—to live atter nature's laws—and to keep always
m the " sunny side of the way." The above works may be had of

wise) from the author (who may be conferred with personally,

Collier, Esq., formerly one of the representatives of this
borough, was suddenly taken ill, and in about three-quarters
'of an hour he was a corpse. His sudden decease is said to
have arisen from a chronic affection of the heart. Mr. Col-
lier, who was in his 80th year, was, down to the day previous
to his death, in the enjoyment of excellent health. He was
a merchant of high standing at Plymouth.
