THE IDIOT AND rHE BEAUTY,

From review, in Tait's Magazine, of Mr.. Combe's
Notes Oh the United States we quote an interesting
passage descriptive of the luickenlng ee,s produced
oman IDIOTS smiud y his. habits ol daily intercourse
with beautiful young girl.
'In the course of conversation case was mentions
ed to me as having occurred in the experience of
highly respectable physician, and which was so fully
authenticated that entertnned doubt of its truth
The physician alluded to had patient, young man,
who almost dioc from the suppression ofall his
faculties. He never spoke, aud never moved vounta-
rily but sat habtualy with Ills hand shading his eyes.
The physician sent him to walk remedial measure
In the neghborhood, "a beaud young girl ofsixeen liv
ed with her parents & used 10 the young man in hs
walks, aud speak kind TO him. For some time he took
notice Of her, but, after meeting her for seye N
months, he began to look for er, and to feel do "
pointed r she did not appear. He become so much IN
terested that he directed his steps VOuntar rly 10 her
albers cottage, and gave her bouquets Of flowers. BY
degrees he conveTsed with her through the window
His mental faculties were aroused; the dawn of conval-
escence appeared. The girl was virluous, intelligent
and lovely, and encouraged his visits when she was
told that she was benefting his mental health. She
wrote some lines 10 him TO induce hmto learn. This
had the desired effect. He applied himself to study,
and soon wrote good and sensible letters 10 her. He
recovered his reason. She was married 10 young
man from the neighboring CITY, Great fears were en-.
ertaned that this event would undo the good she had
accomplished. The young patient sustained a severe
shock, but his mind did not sink under it. He acqu
esced in the proprety Of her choice; continued to m-
prove, and at last restored to his family cured
She had child, and wastoon aferward brought to
the same hospital perfectly insane. The young man
heard ofthis event, and was exceedingly anxious to
see her, but an interview was denied to him; both
her account and his own. She died. He continued
well, and became an active member of society. What
beautiful romance light be founded on this narravel

THE SEXES

The finger of God himsefhas marked out the line
which separates the impulses the habits the character
Of the two sexes:- Man has vigor-woman refinement;
man has the power ofabstraction rarely pos
man is The creature Of fcacuation- woman Of
impulse; capable of deep research he proceeds
slowly and cautiously, measuring every distance, and
counting every step Of his progress-woman bounds
long with rapid foot, observing the most prominent OBJ
ecS in her path, and from them forms conclusions of
ten erroneous, but always ingenious. The intellectual
faculty in man is usually concenated-In woman It is
dlfused; men Of genius commonly devote, themselves
TO some favorite pursuit ofgeDus are res
markable for their versatility Man has The corN
rect judgment-woman the more correct feelings. He
has knowledge ofright which he oen forgets-she
consciousness Of it which never forsakes her, even
in the midst crime; possesses the stronger pas
slons-woman the stronger affections; man has bold
ness-woman forttude man can perform heroic deeds
woman can endure the extreme Of sufferng man has
the more physical daring the more moral cour"
age: man controls Others by the terce of his caracte
woman influences by the genteness of hers In word.
