Causes Of INSANITY.

Dr.. Brigham, Superintendent Of the N.
York Asy um for the Insane, has made
valuable report on insanity and it's causes.
GA the sui lec, of hereditary insanity, DR..
Brigham informs US thu; contrary 10 the
opinion of many, he has found the inherited
form Of insanity as durable as any other.
OI the 204i patients who had been at
the ASYLUM, l0l1 we're men, 997 women.
and 637 were known to have insane rela.
ilves. Tbs statistics on this subject also
show that insanity is little more likely
to be transmitted by the mother than BY
the father, and thar mothers are cousdera.
bly, more Likely TO transmit it to daughters
than TO sons while the fathers more fire..
quenly transmit 1t TO sons. Among the
trequen, caus Of insanity in those no: dis.
posed to ii, is the over indulgence Of the
appetles aud passions IN early life and TO
those who inherit tendency to this dis.
ease, such course is highly peruicious.
The utmost attention should be given TO
securing good bodily constitution. Such
children should be confined but little a.
school; they should be encouraged to run
about the fields aud take much exercise IN
the open air, and thus insure the equal and
proper development of all the organs Of the
body. They should moi have the intellect
unduly tasked. Very early cultivation Of
the mind, and the excitement, Of the feelings
by the strife for the praise and the honor
awarded to great efforts Of mind and memo.
ry, is injurious TO all children, and to those
who inherit tendency to nervous diseases
or insanity most pernicious. In after life.
persons thus predisposed to insanity should
be careful to avoid engaging IN any exciting
or perplexing business or study, and should
strive, under all circumstances, TO preserve
