An affecting Spectacle of Insanity, was
Witnessed u short time since at the Lunatlc
Hospital at Saumur, in France. A lady
and gentleman went 10 visit the establish
ment, accompanied by their child, a little
girl of five or six years old. As they pas
sed one of The cells, the wrelched inmate, a
young woman ofabout twenty-five, who had
irrevocably lost her reason, through the de-
%sertion of a seducer, and the death of her
offspring, suddenly made a spring at the lit
tie girl, who had approached within her
reach. In the height OF her dclirium, the
poor creature iancicd the strangers child
her own, and, devouring it with kisses, bore
il in triumph to the further end of her cell,
Entreaties and menaces having proved
equally Intellectual TO induce her TO restore
the child TO its terrified mother, the director
Of the establishment was sent for, and at his
suggestion the maniac was allowed for a few
moments to retain peaceable possession OF
her prize, under the impression that, ex-
hausted with her W frantic violence, she
would shortly fall asleep, when the child
might be liberated from her grasp, without
difficulty, or the employment of harsh meas
nres. This calculation was not erroneous
in n few minutes the poor sufferers eyes
closed in siumber, and one Of the keepers,
watching the opportunity, snatched the child
from her arms, and restored it to its mother.
The shrek of delight uttered by the latter,
on recovering her treasure, awakened the
poor maniac, who, on perceiving the child
gone, actually howled with despair, and in a
paroxysm Of ungovernable frenzy, fell TO the
ground-lo rise no more. Death had re-
leased her from her sufferings.
