IL any one desires to 1--we wisely and happily, let
HIM take the Journal of Health, and follow its pre-
cepts.
Above all quackery. In the paincst langungo--it is
hilcd with words of wisdom. Every mother ought
to read It Buy pound less OF tea and take 1t.
From the Western Monthly Review Cincinnati, (Ohlo.)
we nave seen some numbers of this periodical.
The writing Is generally chustc, simple, inte!lghle,
perspicuous OF all earthly physical interests,
IT touches infinitely the most important. The max
inns of wisdom and experience treasured on the sub
Jcct ore impaired IN words which he who runs may
read and understand There IS no family IN the
Union, that would rot be benefited many times the
price OF its publication, by reading, and perpcnding
It's contents.
We clear, that, as far as ii goes we have read
no similar work, calculated 10 subscrvc the inter
tsts anG WeiI-Deng OF the community IN relation to
health in an equal degrees and wish that the
prudence and good sense of tho community, may
cord Ia this work liberal patronage.
From the New York Evening Post.
The Journal Of Health Is periodical which we al
ways announce with pleasure to our rca6ers, the
appearance of each Successive number. Its biect
good, and ITS articles good, containing not only
abundance Of excellent preccpts, but those so
agrccably forth and Illustrated. aud so various in
their charncer, that they comet fail 10 accomplish
what have been pronounced the great ends au-
thorshIp. instruction and amusement. The editors
know h"w TO seize hold OF attention, and win men 10
their side They do not attemp to drive them by
long and tedious QUESTION abstract points of
medicines but deal out Instead, short practical hns,
and plain rules of conduct which all can appre cate.
From the Essex Gazette
Jou nal Of HcGHh.--B Blessing on The merry sons Of
-Esculapus who conduct this pleasant and useful
h"hdomeGal! II of the most entertaining
rludiCas have ever met with; and there is tone
at sincerity and a visible adherence of quackery in
its spirited essays, which fail to recommend 1t
to al classes of readers The style of its writers is
pure and classical, YET perfectly adapted to the
Outstanding of all The object is the prevention of
disease, rather than prescription for its actual cXs
rence.
The Journal of Health, No. IL, says the New
York American, is before us, and its character
amusing aud instructive miscellany, written without
pedanry and free from affectation of science is well
