31 One half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
anprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Phpsical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justicedemand tkat health should form an item
in the compact; it alone dignities the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
;hose surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULYERWELL'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 biadered
oy misinterpretatior, of their supposed contents, from obtaining
them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle cariosity, but
or the closet perusal of those mere deeply interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the enapyrical trash put forth on
he above subjects, by anqualified authors, which alone or
'ogether, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
ittle publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,
by post le. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
avoid," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely
,samphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, ner 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 tke maxims he would incuicate—t, do unto others as he
would be 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

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could

Him traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesses are always Injurious ; the gift, which when
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused, the m•oliric source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
.he nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
than any other to which it is subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Phyclology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more importance than the preservation of the health,
and •f the physical capabilities of Valet' every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
froin their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
'or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man who can show by hi.: possession of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and resrect in his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MEIIT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.
