w entitled The JOURNAL OF HEALTH is
conducted and believe that it is calculated to be use
fhl, by enightenng public opinion subject of
high importance to the welfare of society. The
numbers which have appeared, evince talent, and
may be viewed as pledge of the continued useful
ness of the publication, while conducted by its pre-

From the National Standard, Niddlcbug, (Yemont)
If any one desires TO live wisely and happily, let
him take the Journal OF Health, and follow It's pre-
cepts
Above all Quaekery, in the planest language-it is
filed with words Of wisdom. Every mother ought
to-read it. Buy pound less of tea, and take II.
From tho Western Monthly Review, Cincinnati Coh,o)
We have seen some numbers Of this periodical.
The writing is generally chaste simple, intellgble,
perspicuous OF all our earthly physical interests,
Il touches infinitely the most important The max
inns Of wisdom and experience, treasured on the sub
icct, are impaired in words, which he who runs may
read and understand. Thore is no family in the
Union, that would not be benefited many times the
price OF its publication, byreading, and perpending
its contents.
We arc clear that, as far 1t goes, wo have read
similar work, so calculated to subserve the inter-
ests and wcll-bang Of the community in relation TO
health, In 40 equal degrees, and VIC wish that the
prudence and good sense Of the community, may
cord to this work liberal patronage.
From the New York Evening Post.
The journal Of Health is periodical which we al
ways announce with pleasure 70 our readers, on tho
Appearance Of each successive number. Its object is
good, and It's articles are good, containing not only
an abundance Of excellent precepts, but those SO
agreeahy sci forth and Illustrated, and various in
their character, that they connot fail TO accomplish
what have been pronounced the two great ends Of au
thorship instruction end amusement The editors
know how % seize hold Of attention, and win TO
their side. They do not attempt to drive them by
long and tedious dsquiston on abstract points Of
medicine; bat dca out, instead short practical hints,
and plain rules Of conduct which al can appreciate.
