Tinsley's Magazine, for August, is very poor, the copy of

verses by poor Felix Whitehnrst, is the best thing in it. What can be the object of printing such common-place stuff as that, for instance, about the "Byways of Health ?" "too little rest makes us feverish, too much, languid ;" and of warning folks against "eating too fast, and as a natural consequence, swallowing the food before it is properly masti- cated ?" These be truths, but hardly worth writing about in magazines.
