path of nature, and indulging in perncious
habits Such persons musL before comtemplat-
ing. ,,.,1
Reflect that sound mind and body are the
most necessary requisites to promote connubisl
happiness. Indeed, without these the journey
through life becomes Il weary pilgrimage, the
prospect hourly dsrkens to the view, the mind
becomes shadowed with despair, and filled with
the melancholy reflection that tue happiness or
another is blighted with our own.
DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCE.
When the misguided and imprudent votary Of
Measure finds that he has imbibed the seeds of
this painful disease, it too often happens that an
il-tlmed sense of shame or dread OF discovery de-
ters him from applying to those VINO, from edu-
cation and respectabty, can slonc oelriehd niili'
horrld disease makes their appearance, such as
ulcerated sore throat diseased nose, nocturnal
nains in the head and limbs, dimness Of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms:
blotches on the head, face and extremities, pro-
crossing with frightful rapidity, till 1T last the
oslata of the mouth or the bones of the nose
fail in, and the victim Of this awful disease be-
comes horrid object of commisseration till
death puts period TO his dreadful suffering, by
sending him to that undiscovered country from
whanee no traveller returns"
It is q melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, through falling
into the hands of ignorant or unskiful 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 8 renewal of Life, Vigor and HsppinesA
in despair leaves him with ruined Health to sigh
over his calling disappointment.
