A BRAIN AND NERVE PEorIE.--Onc who
appears to comprehend the American people,
speaking, says, with no little justice:
F" The Americans are, in fact, becoming nothing
disc but brain and nerves. Fat and librinc are
only valued rs they sell in markets. and muscle
is only thought Of as it pertains to our draught
animals Our stimulating climate and our fast
habits make us so nervous that life is becoming
to us but one continued spasm. Our move
mcnts are like those of dancing jack Even
our pastimes are so intense that they fatigue
us as much MS our business. The so-calcd rest
which we begrudgngly give ourselves wears
us as much as orr work. We cannot bear to
have another called more "smart" than our
selves, and we will die and he buried rather
than not become as rich as our ncighbors.
There is ever the same unsatislied rcstlessncss,
whether we go abroad or stay at home No
body shall travel faster, or see a given number
of objects III less number of hours than our.
selves no matter ut what cost of money or
health. There is no impossible Alps that we
will not climb, and no deep cave of earth OF
sea that we will not explore. There are none
who will not grow numb before ourselves on the
highest frozen peak, and there shall be non,
who can hold their breath longer under water
When the guide is not looking, there is nc
kings throne or popc's chair on which we vii
not sit. There is nothing within the scope o.
human ability which we will not undertake
and when we boast Of what we have accom-
pliscd, there arc none who shall draw longer
