VATE approve of the plan on which the publication,
w entitled the JOURNAL OF HEALTH" is
conducted and believe that 1t is calculated to be
full, by enghtenng public opinion on subject of
high Importance to the welfare of society. The
numbers which have appeared, evince talent, and
may be viewed pledge of the continued useful
Of the publication, while conducted by its pre-
sent editors We, therefore. feel no hesitation in
recommending it to public patronage
