From the New York Evening Post
Ihe Journal Of Health is a periodical which We MI
ways announces with pleasure to our readers on the
appearance of each successive number Its object ia
good, and It's articles good, containing not only
al abundance of excellent precepts, but those so
agreeaby set forth and Illustrated, and 80 various in
their character, that they connot fail to accomplish
what have been pronounced the 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, drive them by
long and tedious dIsquisition on abstract points of
medicines but deal out, instead, short practical hints,
and plain rules of conduct which all can appreciate
From the Essex Gazette
Jou nal Of Misunderstanding on the merry sons OF
f.sculapus who conduct this pleasant and useful
hebdomeGal! 1t is one of the most entertaining pc
riodicas we have ever met with and there is tone
OF sincerity and visible adherence of uuackery i'm
Its spirited essays, which fail to recommend it
to all classes of readers The style of it's writers is
pure and classical. yet perfectly adapted to the I'm
derstandIng of all. The object is the prevention of
disease, rather than prescription for its actual exs-
tence.
The Journal of Health No. IL, says the New
York American is before us, and its charcter as an
amusing and instructive miscellany, written without
pedanty and free from afiectaton of science is well
sustained. JOHN ii. NASH,
