One half the wend are desolately single, and the other
apposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
~ense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
itter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
sf caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
-ioistprosing harry; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
tad broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
end social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set-
lement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item
'n 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
eiEMOLRS "On Single and Married Life, " pub. in 2 vols., Is.

refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
sy misinterpretation of their :apposed contents, from obtaining
them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle curiosity, but
tr 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
ogether, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
tttle publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,
:)y post Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
avoid," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely
iamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's
ife, who owes his prevent existence, health, and position to this ob-
servance of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as he
would be done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always
