From tho New York Evening Post
The journal Of Health is periodical which we al
ways announce with pleasure to our readers on the
appearance Of each successive number Its object is
good, and its articles are good, containing not only
IN abundance of excellent preccpts, but those SO
agreeaby 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
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 disquisiton on abstract points Of
medicine; but deal out, instead short practical hints
and plain rules of conduct which all can appreciate
From the Essex Gazette.
Jou' nal Of Heahh.-Bcssing on the merry sons Of
Hsculapius who conduct this pleasant and useful
heodomedal! It is one of the most entertaining ne
riodicals we have met with; and there is tone
Of sincerity and visible adherence of quackery in
it's spirited essays, which fail to recommend it
to all classes of readers The style of its writers is
pure and classical yet perfectly adapted to the un-
dersandng of all. The object is the prevention of
disease, rather than prescription for its actual exs-
tonce.
The Journal of Health, No. 10, says the New
York American, is before us, and its charcter as an
amusing and instructive miscellany, written without
pedsntry and free from afectaton Of science is well
sustained. JOHN III. NASH,
