of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
comprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happfoess
and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item
in the compact ; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blightld hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if

each (by post, in stamps, Is. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively
refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
by misinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining
them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle curiosity, but
for the closet perusal of those more 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
little publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,
by post Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
Avoid," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely
pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's

servance of the maxims he would inculcate-0 do unto others as he
would be done unto—tc live after nature's laws—and to keep always

Divine Service by the Jews was celebrated for
the first time on a Sunday, on the Bth instant, at
Koenigsberg, in Prussia. There were about 600 Jews
in the synagogue, and more than 200 Christians, among
whom were some eminent functionaries of the town, in-
cluding the Director of Police, who strongly opposed the
intention of the Jews to transfer the celebration of the
Sabbath from §aturclays 19 Sundays.
