TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
DR.. J. addresses all those who have injured

most necessary requisites TO promote connuoini
happiness, Indeed, without these the journey
through life becomes Il weary pilgrimage, the
prospect hourly durkens to the Wow, the mlAd

the melancholy reflection that the happiness ot
another is blighted with our own.
