One'hall 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-
bitter 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 net be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice detnand 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
these surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little
MEMOIRS "On Single and Married Life, " pub. in 2 vole., Is.
each (by post, 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
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
/tale publications claim your attention (same price le. 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 ewes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
servance of the maxims he would Inculcate—to do unto others as he
would be done unto—te live after nature's laws—and to keep always
on the "sunny side of the way." The above works may be had of

Manhood.' A Medical Work.—To the gay and thought less we
trust this little work will serve as a beacoa to warn them of the
danger attendant upon the too rash indulgence of their passions,
whilst to some it may serve as a monitor in the hour of tempta-
tion, and to the afflicted as a sure guide to health."—Chronlele.
" Manhood.' By J. L. Curtis.—Their long cap( rlence and re-
putation in the treatment of these painful diseases is the patient's
guarantee, and well deserves for the work its immense cirulation."
—Era.

" Curtis on Manhood' should be in the hands of youth and old
age. It is a medical publication, ably written, and developes the
treatment of a class of painful maladies which has too long been
the prey of the illiterate and the desiguing."— United Service
Gazette.
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, on perusing this work,
be astonished to find, that in nine-tenths of the cases of young per-
sons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary con-
sumption, heart di:Tease, tales, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has
been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by yout:::
math more frequently than it is at all suspected.
