Yr One half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determ ne the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
hitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
comprosing hurry; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
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. Blighted hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
these surmise concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little
MEMOIRS " On Single and Married Life, " pub. in 2 vols., is,
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 u..qualified authors, which alone or
together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
little put,lications 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
life, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
servance of the in alms he would inculcate—t) do unto others as lie
would he done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always
on the "sunny side of the way." The above works may be had of

work possesses advantages over every other other of the kind sub-
mitted to public notice. The author is a medical man of some con-
siderable talent, who has devoted many years to the study of his
profession, and as a guarantee of his pretensions has published his
qualifications and diplomas in the work, and several testimonials of
his abilities from physicians and surgeons of great eminence, which
is a most important consideration to those wll,, from the peculiar
nature of their infirmities, are obliged to seek medical assistance
from strangers. The subject is treated altogether in as excellent
manlier, and by its perusal the unfortunate victim of vicious habits
and excessive dissipation, will be enabled to account for peculiar
disabilities, and to discover the means of alleviatin; their sufferings
in an easy and effectual =linen—United Service Gazette.
