The officers of the Insane Hospital treated
the inmates of that institution to picnic on
Thursday. A hundred and fifty or more,
with varied degrees Of minds and thought,
the daft and the undaft, dressed in their best
attire, marched to the beautiful grotto north
of the Hospital, where the favorite steward,
Mr.. Lakin, and the accomplished matron,

fastidious ''pic-nicker." 1t was an occa sion
of rare enjoyment to the members of that
peculiar household The weather was all
that could be desired; indeed we doubt if the
God of nature-the great first cause, ever
permitted the ruler of the day to shed his
golden rays more auspiciously. The air was
clear and balmy, and every breast seemed to
throb with the best emotions. The instru-
mental music. performed by the young men
assistants, was sweet and stirring; to which
was added the harmony Of many voices in the
form of familiar tunes, America, Home,
Sweet Home, Aud Lang Syne, &c. The
scene was serio-comic, while it was full of
JOY, theAc was HipeiuB VI eduneSS, IL was

ter, as the sun was shimmering through the
green lawns of the delightful grove, OAR
win might almost find his "lost link" and in
another Prof. Tyndail, if he would, might
find his "materialistic atheism" shsken. Suf.

ten by those who participated in its pleasures.
