CAUSE OF INsANITY.--A late writer
has astonished the philosophical reader
upon the subject Of insanity, by asserting
that madness or insanity, is inflicted on
human beings by Almighty God as a
punishment for their sins. For my part,
l consider insanity in the nature OF Il
diseased function Of the brain, and have
observed what l have considered very
wicked and abominable characters, who
have shown no signs of madness, unless,
indeed, their being wicked should be ad-
mitted, as an priori evidence of their
being SO; and on the contrary, other per-
sons, who have observed all the duties
of life, have become the unfortunate VIC
Tins Of this ma)ady. We always lose
our discretion, when We arrogate to our
selves the office of a cabinet counsellor
to the Supreme Being, and attempt to
account, religiously or morally, tpr his
inscrutable dispcnsations.- Manual for

EARLY RIsING.-'Let me inquire what
have been your feelings, when peculiar
circumstances of business, or other suf-
fciently strong inducements, have led
you to rise earlier than usual? Have
you not been surprised at your first insen-
sibility, which could suffer you to lose 50
much valuable time? Have you not de
spised yourself for having yielded to
what is generally called an Indulgence,
but which you have found to be a com
plete obstacle to the most exquisite of all
indulgence' Have you not, in spite OF
your recoilections of past habits, expe-
rienced something like sentiment OF
contempt for those who were still immur-
ed in sleep, instead Of exerting the fac
uties nature had bestowed on them!-
who were "tossed in sea of dreams" "
instead Of employing their judgments at
time when they were most capable OF
exercise' Have you not felt the force
Of the poets remark,
""Tis brave to wake, letharpc souls among,
''To rise, surrounded by sinking throng;"
and, in all the pride of your sef-compla-
cent superiority, pitied from your heart
the slaves Of sloth, who were too abject
even to desire their emancipation from its
tyranny
And how opposite are these feelings
to those which are experienced by one ly-
ing on q bed of sloth and laziness. lie

ness of which inficts upon him all the

FREEDOM OF THE MIND.

call that mind free which masters the
senses, which protects itself against ami
NAL appetites, which contemns pleasure
and pain in comparison with its own en-
ergy, which penetrates beneath the body
and recognizes its own reality and great
ness, which passes life, not in asking
what il shall eat or drink, but in hunger
ing, thirsting and seeking after righteous
ness.
call that mind free, which escapes
the bondage of matter, which, instead of
stopping at the material universe and
making it prison wall, passes beyond
to its Author, and finds in the radiant
signatures which it every where bears of
the Infinite Spirit, helps to its own spirit
ual enlargement.
Il call that mind free, which jealousy
guards its intellectual rights and powers,
which opens itselfto light whence-soever
il may come, which receives new truth
as an angel from heaven, which while
consulting others, enquiries still more OF
the oracle within itself, and uses instruc-
ton from abroad, not to supercede, but
TO quicken and exalt its own energies
call that mind free, which sets no
bounds to its love, which is not imprison-
ed in itself or in seat, which recogniz.
es in all human beings the image OF God
and the rights of his children, which de-
lights in virtue and sympathizes with sui-
fcring wherever they are seen, which
conquers pride, anger and sloth, and Of
fcrs itself up a willing victim to the cause
Of mankind.
call that mind free, which is not pas.
sivcly framed by outward circumstances,
which is not swept away by the torrent
of events, which is not the creature Of
accidental impulse, but which bends G.
vents TO its own improvement, and acts
from ON inward spring, from immutable
principles which il has deliberately es-
poused. .,
I call that mind free, which protects it.
self against the usurpstions Of society,
Herald of the times. [volume] (Newport, R.I.) 1830-1846, 1832-09-06

which does not cover to human opinion,
which feels itself accountable to high
er tribunal than mans, which respects a
higher law than fashion, which respects
itself too much to be the slave or tool of
the many or the few.
call that mind free, which through
confidence in God and in the power Of
virtue, has cast off all fear, but that of
wrong dong, which menace nor peril
can enthral, which is calm in the midst
Of tumults, and possesses itself though
all else be lost.
call that mind free, which resists the
bondage of habit, which does not me-
chanically repeat itself and copy the
past, which does not live on its old vir-
tues, which does not enslave itself to
precise rules, but which forgets what is
behind, listens for new and higher mo-
nitions of conscience, and rejoces to
pour itself forth in fresh and higher exer-
tions.
call that mind free, which is jealous
Of its own freedom, which guards itself
from being merged in others, which
guards its empire over itself as nobler
than the empire of the world.
In fine, call that mind free, which
conscious of its affinity to God, and con-
fding in his promises by Jesus Christ,
dcvotcs itself faithfully to the unfolding
OF all its powers, which passes the bounds
of time and death, which hopes to adj
vance forever, and which finds inexhaus-
tible power, both for action and suffering,
in the prospect Of Immortality.
Such is the spiritual freedom, which
Christ came to give. 1t consists in mo-
raj force, in self control, in the enlarge
ment OF thought and affection, and in the
unrestrained action Of our best powers.
This is the great good Of Christianity,
nor can we conceive greater within the
gia Of God. CLAIMING.

ii AFFECTION TO PARENTS REWARDED
Frederick, the late King of Prussia, hav-
ing rung his bell one day, and nobody
answering, opened the door where his
servant was usually in waiting, and found
him asleep on sofa. He was going to
awake him, when he perceived the end
of billet or letter hanging out OF his
pocket.
Having the curiosity to know its con-
tents, he took and read it, and found it
was letter from his mother, thanking
him for having sent her part of his wa
gcs to assist her in her distress, and con-
GLIDING with beseec ching God to bless
him for his filial attention to her wants
The king returned softly to his room,
took roller Of ducats and slid them with
the letter into the pago's pocket. Re-
turning to his apartment he rung so vio-
lcntiy that the page awoke, opened the
door and entered "You have slept
well," said the king. The page made
an apology, and in his embarrassment
happened to put his hand in his pocket,
and felt with astonishment the roller
He drew it out, turned pale, and looking
at the king, burst into tears, without be-
ing able to speak word. 'What is the
matter" said the king, what ails your
'Ah! sire" said the young man, throw
ing himself at his feet, somebody has
wished to ruin me. know not how l
came by this money in my pocket. my
friend, said Frederick, God often sends
us good in our sleep: send the money to
your mother; salute her in my name; and
assure her that l shall take care Of her
and you.'
! Parents have a natural claim on their
offspring for support; and relieving aged
parents, when bodily strength decays, in
tirmities and wants increase, is not only
an act of mercy, but also an act Of JUS
tice--an imperious duty-a repaying in
kind what they did for their children in
their tender helpless years, and to s,cith-
hold from Them 10 ,ohom 1t IS due, ,cten 1t
IS IN The power Of thine hand to do it," and
"sha up our bowels Of compassion ,chen zoe
see them IN need" argues an extreme
hardness of heart. "Ho,o dwelleh the
lore Of God in such an one?" Can the
merciless hope for mercy, who will show
no mercy!

quently cut, until children are ten years
old. The idea of its making hair coarse
to keep it cut in childhood, is stated to
be mere prejudice. A too luxuriant
head ofhair is apt to produce paleness Of

braids, is very injurious to its beauty
The frequent use of an ivory comb is OBJ

the brush is used. Ifyou wish for CLOS

life be kept thoroughly disentangled and

THE CHILDREN,s CHOICE.

THE CHILDREN's CHOICE.
The following beautiful lines are extracted ire
lhe Pearl for 1882, written by Mrs. Gilman
5. &.
JOHN.
mean to be soldier,
With uniform quite new,
I wish they'd let me have drum,
And be Captain too;
Iwould 60 amid the battle,
With my broad-sword in my hand,
And hear the cannon rattle,
And the music also grand.
MOTHER.
NV son! my son! what if that sword
Should strike noble heart,
And bid some loving father
From his little ones DEPART
What comfort would your waving P'nmes'
And brilliant dress bestow,
When you thought upon his widows toars'
And her orphans cry Of woe'
WILLIAM.
I mean to be a President,
And rule each rising state,
And hold my levees once week,
For all the gay and great;
I'll be King, except crown,
For that they won't allow,
And III find out what the Tariff is,
That puzzles me SO how.
MOTHER.
nv son! my son! the cares Of state,
Are thorns upon the breast;
That ever pierce the good mans heart,
And rob him of his rest;
The great and gay to him appear
As trifling as the dust;
For he knows how little they are worth,
How faithless are their trust.
LOUISA.
mean to be a cottage girl,
And sit behind rll,
And morn and eve my pitcher there,
With purest water fill;
And III train lovely woodbine.
Around my cottage door,
And welcome to my winter hearth
The wandering and the poor.
MOTHER.
Louisa, dear, humble mind
'Tis beautiful to see,
And you shall never hear word,
To check that mind from me;
But. all! remember, pride mny dwell
Beneath the woodbne's shade;
And discomfort, sullen guest,
The cottage hearth invade.
CAROLINA.
will be gay and courtly,
And dance away the hours,
Music and sport and joy shall dwell
Beneath my fairy bowers;
No heart shall ache with sadness
Within my laughing ball;
But the note Of love and gladness
Re-echo at my call.
MOTHER.
Oh! children! sad it makes my soul
To hear your playful strain;
cannot bear to chill your youth
With images Of pain.
Yet humbly take what God bestows,
And, like his own fair flowers,
Look up in sunshine with smile,
And gently bend in showers.

EXERcIsE.-There is labor Of the
mind, as well as Of the body, and some
employ themselves very usefully to So
ciety, who do but little with their hands.
But the labor Of the body, if not excess
sive, strengthens the mind, and those
who do not labor from ecessity, should
labor for health.
