bustion Of living anialaI tissue, such

once, or repeated, coming in contact
with this peculiarly delicate human
fibre, or living and burning tissue, at
once, and in similar proportions as it

tards the seton of burning tissue,
and prevents healthy and natural di-

social nature. With the social we
find the financial so closely interwo-

drinks are at the root of all the mis-
fortunes of the poorest and most nu-
merous c!ass OF human beings. 1t is
the chief cause of pauperism and
crime, a frequent occasion of immor-
alitv; it lowers the health, lessons
the inventive genius, and shortens the
life of artizans and common laborers;
makes their homes wretched, and ex-
poses the men and their families 81
