Synopsis
Excerpt from The Sanitary Condition of the Laboring Population of New York: With Suggestions for Its Improvement, a Discourse Delivered on the 30th December, 1844, at the Repository of the American Institute
No duty can engage the attention of the magistracy of a city or state, more dignified in itself, more beneficial to the present generation, or more likely to prove useful to their descendants, than that of pro curing and maintaining a sound state of the public health.
Of the three objects contemplated in the Declaration of Independence as necessary to be secured by government, the first named is Life. Higher purposes cannot be conceived for which governments should be instituted.
