XO the writer it has always appeared 
, indisputable, that among the final 
causes: of our, sensations, a capacity for 
petrurble, feeling, in accordance. with the 
olence universally displayed in the 
scheme of the creation, ranks as the most 
prominent and important. Notwithstanding 
all the evils to which the human frame is 
exposed, the goods of the body (for so mo- 
ral philosophers have denominated health,

disease, in one grade or another, is pre-

formly the product of disease. It-may, 
thérefore, be said, that Health, with more 
or less of pleasurable feeling, is the Rule ; 
Disease, with more or less of painful feeling,
