EDITOR JoURNAL.-There are quite
a number Of cases Of typhoid fever and
inflammation ofthe lungs in this vicini-
ty, the causes of which could be traced
70 the improper manner Of living ofour
people instead Of tho mysterious designs
of Providence. We are all too apt to
jump at conclusions, without taking
time and trouble to investigate the
cause of anything We do not immedi-
ately perceive. We would think man
very obtuse who could store turnips in
bis cellar and never perceive any ba
effect from such practice; yet there are
many who do so, and never suppose it
has anything to do with calling the
doctor several times during the winter.
How many, too, use water from a hole
beside the marsh, because they have
not time or means at hand to dig a
well, and pay the physician more than
would dig several wells :? I do not
like to hear people blame Providence
for their own thoughtlessness.
