"THE Wreck OF THE MIND. Perhaps
there is nothing more terrible to contem-
plate than the ruin of the mind Time,
with his passing wing, may smite cathe-
drals and castles, and leave buttress and
battlement clad in a shroud of living
green; but when it passes over an i'm
mortal mind the desolation is fearful in
deed. Pilgrims flock TO ruins as to a
.'thing of beauty" but the visitor to one
who suffers under the calamity of insanity
gazes and shuGders. Nothing of the
picturesque gladdens his eye. He only
beholds death in life, and life in death.
