From the New York Evening Post.
gne journal Of Health is a periodical winch we al
ways announce with pleasure 10 our rcatcrs, on the
appearance of each successive number. Its object IS
good, and It's articles good, containing not only
ali abundance of excellent precepts, but those so
uqreeaby set forth and illustrated and so various IN
their character, that they connot fail to accomplish
what have been pronounced the TWO great ends OF au-
thorship, instruction and amusement. The editors
know how TO seize hold OF attention. and win men To
their side They do not attemp to drive them Oy
long and tedious dIsquision on abstract points OF
medicines but deal out instend short practical hints,
and plain rules of conduct which oil can appreciate.
