The tale that I relate, This lesson'seems to carry— Choose not alone a proper mate, But proper time to marry. Cowpsr. Even in the healthy climate of Australia there are many men— Whose legs, like leaden branches, bow to the earth, Willing to leave their burden. Shakespeare. For now, as in the time of La Bruyere, “ many men expend the early part of their lives'in contributing to render the latter part miserable,” frequently realising Spenser's discription— As pale and wan as ashes was his looke, His body loane and meagre as a rake, And skin all withered like a dried rooke, In all countries, and especially in newlysettled regions, whore a disparity of the sexes exists, There is an order Of mortals on the earth, who do become Old in their youth, and die ere middle age. Byron. While it is a well established fact that Anguish of mind has driven thousands to suicide.—Colton. Recently published, in 16mo, cloth boards, price 4s.

SMITH, For eighteen years the leading Consulting Medical Man in Melbourne in all Special Diseases, and in all Complaints incidental to Hot Climates. In this work will be found an answer to the question which heads this advertisement. In the Australian Colonies, more than in the Mother Country, is continually heard the complaint that young men will not marry, and their conduct in abstaining from marriage, in certain cases, is highly commendable, for—“lt is less a breach of Wedlock to part than still to foil and pro f ane that Mystery of Joy and Union with a polluting Sadness and Perpetual Distemper.”—Milton. Yet it cannot be disputed that the highest degree of earthly happiness is that yielded by the permanent enjoyment of the married state, for—- “ Without our hopes, without our fears, Without the Home that plighted love endears, Without the smile from Beauty won, Oh ! what were Man ?—a World without a Sun. —Campbell. It is true that many marriages prove unhappy from there being no children and other causes ; but it is equally true that the cause of unhappiness is generally removable ; for of nearly every woman it may be saidi 11 In any honest suit she’s framed as fruitful As the free elements.”—Shakespeare.
