From the New York Evening Post
The Journal Of Health is n periodical which we al
ways announce with pleasure to our readers, on the
appearance of each successive number Its object IS
good, and It's articles good, containing not only
abundance of excellent preccpts but those so
agreeaby set forth and iustyatcd aud so various IN
their character, that they connot fail to accomplish
what have been pronounced the two great ends of
thorshIp, instruction and amusement. The editors
know how TO seize hold Of attention, and win men to
their side. They do not attempt To drive them by
long and tedious dlsqulsiton abstract points OF
medicines but deal out, instead, short practical hints
and plain rules Of conduct which all appreciate.
