I7OR the information cf their medical brether. whose asistance they invoke, and of the public at large, for whom the work is mainlv intended, the conductors of the Journal of Iikalts! deem it prcper to state with brevity, the aim and scope of their eftbits. Deeply impressed with a belief, that mankind might be saved a lange amount of suffering and. disease, by a suitable knowledge of the natural laws to which the human frame is subjected, they propose laying down plain precepts, in ease style and familiar language, for the regulation of all the physical agents necessary to health, and to point out under what circumstances of excess or misapplication they become injurious and fatal. The properties of the air, in its seyeral states of heat, dryness, moisture and electricity ,the relative effects of the different articles of solid and liquid aliments ; the manner in which the locomotive organs, senses, and brain, are most beneficially exercised, and how, and under what circumstances, morbidly impressed ; clothing, for protection against atmospherical vicissitudes, and a cause of disease, when under the direction of absurd fashions bathing and frictions, and the use of mineral waters, shall be prominent topics for enquiry and investigation in this Journal. The modifying influence of climate and localities, legislation, national and corporate, on health a branch of study usually designated by the term Medical Police will furnish subjects fraught with instruction, not less than amusing and curious research. The value of dietetic rules shall be continually enforced, and the blessings of temperance dwelt on, with emphasis proportioned to their high importance and deplorable neglect. Physical Educationso momentous a question for the lives of children, and happiness of their parents shall

be discussed in a spirit of impartiality, and "with the aid of all the data which have been furnish by enlightened experience.
