Mr.. Bnncrort,s Shattered Mind

The venerable historian, George Ban.
croft, owing to his declining mental fac
ulties, has desisted from all attempts at
further literary work, says a Washington
letter to the Pittsburg Commercial. Dur
ing the past few years he has had in con-
temptation the writing Of a history of
the Polk administration, of which he was
the first secretary of the navy and sub
sequeRtly filed with great honor to him
self and the president the post of minis
ter TO Great Britain. The researches
necessary to a presentation of the acts of
that administration had been completed
and al the materials were in his hands
but the mental change soon gave force to
the fact that he must regard his literary
life at an end. Conversing with his
friends he admits that he had
not the will to lead to ambition or inter
est in further literary enterprises. 1t is
evident from the conversations of Mr..
Bancroft that he has felt the approach
of that weakening of his mental faculties
for the past few years, and in view of
this fact he has given much of his time
70 a careful revision Of all his publica-
TONS of a perm anent historic character,
and has had all copyrights renewed,
which will give 10 his declining days
aud subsequently, his heirs the reward Of
literary labors for some years to come.
The case of MIR. Bancroft seems to be q
very peculiar one. The Suspension Of
his mental faculties are not permanent.
Among the favorite recreatlons during
these days is the enjoyment Of a game OF
whist, on which occasion his memory
seems to be as active as ever. as he plays
the game with all lis natural vigor and
interested.
