The Hypochondriac.

We have a little more sympany for this
victim of morbid feeling than most persons are
willing to bestow, because, being an utter dis
believer in what are usually called mental dis
eases, We feel satisfied there is bodily disturb
ance, and therefore, we claim our pity and
consideration.
The singular fancies of the Hypochondrac
are, nevertheless, very amusing sometimes.
1t is related of Curran, the celebrated Irish
barrister, that he laSored under the belief, for
long time, that one of the his legs was
Chatolic, and the other Protestant, and no in
ducement could persuade him to put the Chat
ole leg in bed. A course of mild alternatives
and short freedom from the cares oc his pro-
fession, soon restored the healthy condition Of
the body, and his morbid imaginngs disap-
peared with returning health.
DR.. Badger had patient who immagined
he had a glass leg, and it was the constant
care of bis life to prevent bis fragile limb from
being fractured. He was confined to his house
for some year or two He was at length in
duced to get into country wagon for a ride,
under the guidance Of the Doctor The Doc
tor drove him out mile or two into the cen
tire of large common, and here he lifted his
patient out of the vehicle and carefully placed
him on the ground. Without giving the
slightest intimation of his purpose, the Doctor
jumped into the cart and drove off, leaving his
terrified patient behind His cries were un-
needed he was not however, left unmatched.
Night was coming on, and he made faint
effort to get up-he accomplished his purpose.
He was astonished to find his leg did not
break--cautiously he essayed to walk at first
very slowly-he graduly gained courage and
strength-he persevercd-and before he was
half way home, walked as well as he ever did
in his life.
A mist seems to have been dissipated from
his mind, or rather, we should say, revulsion
had taken place in his bodily system. The
circulation restored inspired his whole frame
with life and vigor.
There is a man in this city who firmly be-
lieves that his nose is made Of wax He new
er ventures near fire, nor will he 60 into the

ed.
We could give thousand instances of the
same morbid condition of body, and conse.
quently Of mird.
We have alluded to this subject for the pur'
pose of begging for the Hypochondriac lit
tie more sympathy than is usually given, and
a more serious consideration of his case by
those interested in his welfare Such condition
of body and mind indicates predisposition tt
insanity, the first approach of which should be
met with decisive measures. The common
belief in mental diseases prevails that attention
to the condition of the body which it demands
for, on its normal or abnormal condition, de
pends the soundness Of the mind "Me@

Post Office Musings,
ALL NES BRErnERN.-

Last Evening, the labor Of the day being
over, and feeling in hstless and Indifferent
mood, | wandered forth in search of adventure.
Dreaming, perhaps, rather than thinking. |
followed in the footsteps of Others along the
noisy streets until found myself in the Post
Office.
A large crowd were present jostling each
other, all eager to receive at the hands Of the
weary clerks, this one letter, that one a pa
per, this one missive of love, and that one
news from home of his father.
Among the rest was ragged son of Erin.
Slowly he came, weary and oppressed with the
cares Of life. Time had untolded her "whi,e
banner" upon his brow, and written over his
visage the wrinkles of age Long years ofdis-
apation had robbed his form of the impress of
divinity and traced over the glories Of man
hood the deformities of vice. His large dark
eyes was red and languid-hs fine arm had
lost its beauty and its grace, his step was ir-
regular and uncertain, and apparently alone in
the world he stood before me, sad remnent
Of humanity. Taking his place he silently
waited his turn to be served. His sorrowful
and detected air had attracted my attention,
and | watched his movements. Soon he drew
from the box letter. As his eve fell upon
it smile cleaned across his troubled visage
like the dawn of morning upon the brow of
night The God within him for a moment
shope through the veil of intemperance and
deformities Of vice. Stepping aside he eager
ly broke the SEAL 1t was from over the blue
waters-from the land Of his fathers. Per
haps it was from dear sister whose purity
and love, whose gentle spirit and fond affec-
ton threw charm around his youthful years.
As he reads the freshness of early feeling rolls
back upon his soul. Upon his mind rise pleas
ing memories of days long gone by, and the
old man Of care, of sorrow, and ofvice, weeps
The deamon Of passion sleeps within him, and
his spirit again holds communion with the
beautiful and the good. Tell us not that all
that is noble within him is dead, for ever the
cords Of bis heart there sweeps an angelic
music that fills his soul with rapture, that lifts
him above his own brutality, and makes him
feel that he is.yet man. Tell us not that
there is no help for him. for while the deep
fountains Of his feeling may be stirred, while
beneath the ashes Of vice there lives the spark
of conscience there its hope.
Should the christian and the philanthropist
take these erring children of downtrodden
and oppressed land kindly by the hand, and
lead them gentle on beyond the black and
bitter stream that rolls its suen waves to the
ocean of destruction or should they pass them
coldly by, and without word Of friendship OF
of warning or on effort to save, suffer them to
drain to its dregs the cup o: misery and vice
