MARRIAGE.
Reflect that a sound mind and body arc the
most necessary requisites ia promote connubi-
al happiness, Indeed, without these the Jour-
ney through life becomes a weary pilgrimage,
1.-The prospect hourly darkens to the view, tho
mind becomes shadowed with despair, and filled
with the melancholy relocation that tho h@ppl
, ness of another is biighted with our own,
DISEASE OF IMPRUDENCE.
When the misguided and imprudent voLsry
of pleasure finds that he has lmblDed inc seeds
of this painful disease, il too otten happens
that an il-:imed sense Of shame or dread Of
discovery deters him from applying to those
who, from education and respectabliIty, can
alone betrend him, delaying IN the constlu-
tionsl symptoms of this horrid disease make
their appearance, such a5 liberated soro throat,
diseased nose nocturnal pains in the head and
Limbs, dimness Of sight, deafness, nodes o.
the shin bones and arms blotcnes on the head
face and extremities, progressing with fright
full rspidity, till at last the palate OF the mouth
or the bones of the nose fall in, and the victim
of this awful disease becomes horrid object
Of commiserstion till death puts period TO
his dreadful suffering, by sending him to that
undiscovered country IRON whence no travel
er returns"
1t is a melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, through falling
into the hands OF ignorant or unskilful PKk-
TENDERS, who, by the use of that deadly
Poison, Mercury, Sc, destroy the constitution,
and incapable OF curing, keep the unhappy sui
ferer month after month taking their n0xious
or injurious compounds, and instead of beng
restored to renewal of Lie Vigor and Hsppl-
ness, in despair leave him with ruined Heath
to sigh over his CALLING disappointment.
