MARRIAGE.
Reflect that sound mind and body ere the
most necessary requisites to promote connubial
happiness, Indeed, without these the journey
through life becomes weary pilgrimage, tho

the melancholy reflection that the happiness OF

DISEASE OF IMPRUDENCE.
Wheu misguided and irprudcnt votary &
plc,sur nds that he has iinbibed the seeds oil
this pai al disease, it too often happens That al
ll-tmes cnsc of shame or dread OF discovery de-
tcrs him fromupplylng to those who from cduca-
ton and responsibility, cnn alone bcircnd him,
delaying till the constitutional symptoms of this
horrid disease makes their appearance, such rs
liberated sore throat, diseased nose, nocturnal
pains in the head and limbs, dimncss Of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms,
blotches on the head, face and extromities, pro-
crossing with frightful rapdlty, till at last the
pnlute of the mouth the bones of the
nose fall in and the victim of this awful disease
becomes horrd object of commsseration till
death puts period to his dreadful suffering, by
sending him to that undiscovered country from
whence no traveller returns"
1t is melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims TO this terrible disease, through falling
into the hands Of ignorant or unsktul PRE-
TENDERS, who by the use Of that deadly
Poison, Mercury, SC, destroy the constitution,
and incapable OF curing, keep the unhappy suf'
ferer month after month taking their noXious
Injurious compounds, and instead Of being re.
stored to a renewal OF Life, VI gorand Happiness
in despair leave him with ruined Health to sigh
over his calling disappointment.
