Period of Life Subject 10 Insanity.

OA1Uu VI A440 SuUJ6GI W AHodH1Gy'
The London Lancet says that to
determine the period of life which
furnishes the greatest number of
insane persons, it is sufficient to
bring together the records, made
up under different circumstances
One of these made at the Bice-
tire, France, where poor men only
are received, another at the Salt
petriere. a hospital for poor wo-
men the third, an establishment
devoted to the wealthy, have
been examined, and it appears
that the age which furnishes the
greatest number of insane is, for
men, that from thirty to forty
years, while for women it is that
from fifty to sixty years. The
ages which furnish the least, for
both sexes, are childhood, youth,
advanced age. Among women
insanity generally appears earlier
than among men; indeed, twenty
to thirty years of age The rich
are more subject to insanity, in
proportion, than the poor.

Woven Wind.

"WOven Wind" is the poetic
name of the finest workmanship
in India-4-l-.c Decca muslin.' So
fine is this material that when
laid upon the grass to be bleached
the dew makes it disappear. This
used to be spun by native te-
males, who had been trained to
it from their infancy. So nice
was the sense of touch required
for the spinning Of this yarn that
they were constantly waited on
by a retinue Of servants. whose
duty it was to relieve them of all
menial Offices which might en-
danger the fine tactual faculty
which long practice and seclusiOn
had bestowed on their delicate
finger tips. Singularly enough,
although the steam engine and
spinning machine can produce far
finer yarn than any that the fin
gers of the Hindoo maiden ever
spun, the English looms, in other
respects so perfect, cannot weave
the Decca muslin. The finer
yarns require to be sent back to
India to be woven by hand into
the himsiest of tissues by the
rudest and most primitive Of all
looms.

Tropical Vegetation on the Amazon

The magical beauty of tropical
vegetation reveals itself in all its
glory to the traveller who steers
his boat through the solitudes of
those acquatic mazes. Here the
forest forms a canopy over his
head; there it opens, allowing the
sunshine to disclose the secrets
of the wilderness; while on either
side the eye penetrates through
beautiful vistas into the depths of
the woods. Sometimes on a high
er spot of ground a cIump of trees
forms an island worthy Of Eden.
A chaos of bushropes and creep
ers fings it's garIands of gay flow
ers over the forest, and fills the
air with the sweetest odor. NJ
merous birds, partly rivaling in
beauty of color the passiforas and
bignOnias of those hanging gar
dens, animate the banks of the
lagune, while gudy macaws perch
on the lO1tiest trees; and, as if to
remind me that death is not ban
ished from this scene of paradise,
a dark-robed vulture screeches
through the woods, or an alliga-
tor rests, like black log of wood
or a sOmbre rock on the tranquil
waters. Well he knows that food
will hot be wanting; for river
tortoises and large fish are fond
Of retiring to these lagunes. X
If the Nile, so remarkable for its
historical recollections which car
ry us far back into the bygone
ages, and the Thames, unparal-
leled by the greatness of a COM
merce which far eclipses that of
ancient Carthage and Tyre, may
justly be called the rivers of The
past and the present; the Amazon
has equal claims to be called the
stream of the future for more
splendid field nowhere lies open
to the enterprise of man.

Song of the American Girl.
Our hearts are with our native land,
Our song is for her glory;
Her warriors wreath is in our hand,
Our lips breathe out her story.
Her lofty hills and valleys green
Are shining bright before us;
And like rainbow sign is seen
Her proud flag waving DER US.
And there are smiles upon our lips
For these who meet her foemen;
For glory's star knows no eclipse,
When smiled upon by women.
For those who brave the mighty deep,
And scorn the threat of danger,
We've smiles to cheer-and tears to weep,
For every ocean ranger.
Our hearts are with our native land,
Our song is for her freedom,
Our prayers are for the gallant band
Who strike where honor lead them;
We love the taintless air we breathe,
'Tis freedoms endless bower,
We'll twine for him an endless wreath,
Who scorns tyrants power.
They tell Of Frances beauties rare.
OF I;aly's proud daughters;
Of Scotands lassies-Engand' fair,
And nymph's of Shannon's waters.
We need not boast their mighty charms,
Though lords around them hover;
Our glory lies in freedoms arms

ARETHUsIA's FOUNTAIN.-The
fountain of Arethusia presents the
phenomenon of a fresh water
spring rising up so copiousiy from
the shore covered by the salt
waves as completely to displace
them, and to substitute its own
bubbling and surging supplies for
those Of the ocean, which on all
sides surrounds the spring. We
rOwed to the spot, and on tasting
the water found it totally devoid
Of any saline taste or impregna-
ton. The circumference, howev-
er, in which the phenomenon
takes place, is very contracted,
and at a few yards on each side
of the spring salt water resumes
its spray.-[Notes from Past Life.

That l am free, at liberty,
And waiting for beau.

Their summers were but brief,
And I'm the last upon the tree
But not wthered leaf
I'm not engaged I'm not engaged
My age is twenty two,

OF course it must be true.)
And some of these same girls changed names
When hardly seventeen
And I've not had an offer yet,
Oh dear what can it mean?
I'm not engaged I'm not engaged!

I'm half inclined to smile at it,
And yet, drop tear
I'm not the plainest girl in town
If mirrors tell me true
I've known far palmer girls engaged
Oh say, sr-hav'nt you?
I'm not engaged I'm not engaged
Nor know the reason why,
have not sighted mas advice,
Who told me | must try;
I've talked of sentiment and song,
And romance quite enough,
But now, fear, Pm given Ger
To taking tea and snuff

But only laugh at me

DoLLs.-A doll is one of the
most imperiOus wants, and at the
same time one of the most deli
cious instincts of feminine child
hood. To clean, cIothe, adorn,
dress, undress, dress again, teach
scold a little, lull, send to sleep,
imagine that somebody is some
body-the whole future of a wo-
man is contained in this. While
dreaming and prattIing, making
little trosseaux and cradles, while
sewing little frocks and aprons,
the child becomes a girl, the girl
becomes a maiden, and the mai
den a woman. The first child is
a continuation of the last doll. A
little girl without a doll is nearly

sive as a wife without children.
