The success of the revolutionary movement
in SPAN, ending as it has in the expulsion of
Queen Isabella. gives rise to much speculation
as to the probable successor ON the Spanish
throne. 1t is generally believed that the
known dislike OF the Emperor Napoleon to
the Orleans family is fatal to the hopes of the
MoDtpensers, and that Carlist will be chosen
to rule over Spain is regarded as impossible
The ancient rights of the house of Savoy to
the throne of Spain are beginning to be dis

of King Victor Emmanuel, is talked of as an
available candidate. f

pie justice to the subject to enumerate few OF the
many additional causes which SO largely affect the
lite, health and happiness OF woman in all classes OF
society, and which, consequently affect more or less
directly, the welfare OF the entire human family The
mania that exists for precocous education and mar
riage, the years that nature designated for

In consequence of this early strain upon her sys-

voary to retain her situation in school at later day

Long fore the ability exercise the functions OF
the generative organs, they require education of
their peculiar system, com posed of what is
called the tissue, which is, in common with the fe-
male breast ano lips, evidently under the control of
mental emotions and associations at early period
of life; and as we shall subsequently see these

habits which sap the very life OF their victims ere
