in One half the wend are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
is:tter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret tm-
comprosing hurry; but the troth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
was 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 sheuldform as item
in the compact ; it alone dignities the alliance. Blighted hopes or
Reelect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if

The Parent, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast
approaching to a premature grave, in consequence of some disease,
which, for want of careful investigation of its real cause, has been
set down to the score of consumption, will, en perusing this work,
be astonished to find, that in nine-tenths of the cases of young per-
sons of both sexes, ivho perish of what is called pulmonary con-
sumption, heart disease, takes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has
been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth
