1 er the guilt lay chiefly in tliu present, as in* '
the past acts of his life, whether he is not '

morally insane on this topic, than immcili- 1
l ately and simply reprehensible. Almost ! '
t all men h ive their weak spots, and few can '
boast of a perfectly sound physical, mental !
! and moral constitution. The physician ran
sometimes cure these cases best, be- '
' cause it is not his duty to consider where
the fault lies, bill uiilv how it is to be reinI
edied. " (
Ilis well known that Coleiiilgn hn<) he!
come su infatuated l?y,.nn?l ?? 1?1 ??-loi 1 to, the !
1 use of opium, tli.it his friends ha<l nil given !
i liiin ii|> lbr lost. Ono of his wannest a?l'
mireis hired a uuin to wnteli him night ami
ilny, mid prevent his {jelling nreesa to the
pernicious drug. l'?ut In: battled his guard
again und again. At last, tafter suffering

rraphit: pen confesses itself tillable to d?*s- ' :
crilnf, in Ilu! d>'pt lis of humility aljd cOntri i
tinii, lu; sought out a ju?liriou? physician, to <
i whom In: revealed his whole case, his Mru;*- j 1
tries mid Ins desires, placed himself under his
control anil care, and lived, and finally 1 |
died, in tliat man's house, a tier a successful I
re formal ion of live and 'twenty years. The | ,
confession of his weakness, and Jjie realiza-! I
tion that however guilty in its causes, it <
I was now a case of moral insanity, we sup- , <
, pose was what saved him to ho cured by I
| medical means. I
i There are many ineni who. from various .
' causes of early habits, seem periodicallyJo_...?
require some great excitement, either pliy.-l- ?
cal, mental, or moral. Hence the uncoil-| j
' trollable spells of drinking into which some i
men will fall occasionally, in the absence of I
mental stimulants, bitterly aa they regret it, I
and mourn over it at other times, resolve :
i against it, or vow against it. The butler of i
the celebrated William 1'itt used to (elate j .1
i that his master would lirst of all give him . I
strict orders before dinner not to bring uj>, i
more tliau so much wine, ami afterwards, j .
: when it was gone, hu would call for more, . j
order, threaten, rave, and once dragged the j i
i butler down stairs to the cellar, l?y main , I
foreo, to {;t?t more wine. \ ;
i Very frequently it is found that ?*rc;?t j
mental exctietneiiL and exertions may ho i 1
substituted fur tluse physical paroxysms. |
! Thus it was remarked uf the late Senator i
! llusk, that, although in early ^fo milch ad I
' dieted to occasional revels of this kind, yet
i that, as ho warmed into political life, these 1 i
I periods became more and more rare, and
; thai in proportion lo tho.excitement, uf any 1
ill*l*uu!ali lii. vl'nlllil riiiji In it oulm > ?.!
( Strong mental or moral excitement, then, | (
! seems to form one ot' tho very best counter- 1 ,
in itauts or remedies against this craving ,
' thirst for physical stimulants. The only |
' danger is, that in any moment of reaction- ;
. ury depression, always liable to recur after ' .
! great excitement, tho danger of falling into '
| the use of stimulants is proportionably great, j
i With proper medical care and watchfulness, i
j these periodical cravings for excitement, will, j
I however, become less and less fretpieut, and ;
i also subside in violence. I
Tho strength of this craving, however, i
! when once aroused, is bo vehement, that we
j can only conjecture that without toine mode 1
j of satisfying it, il would perhaps prove fatal. J
Indeed, the Midden and lolttl cessation of
the use of stimulants is 0110 of the niost fre- i
quent causes of mauia-a-potu. l>ut tho nubstitutioii
of one form of excitement for nil- '
other, gradually tapering off tho whole into ;
| a healthful regular activity of the whole i
man, is what is to be aimed at in all such '
caftefi, while wire mint bo taken to allow full .
scope for this excitability of temperament in
Rome other way than by drink, until it sub- j
sides of itself.
A mere physician of the bocly would utterly
fail in such a woik as this, 'l'jjja,
whole man, physical, mental arid moral, ,
must be considered, studied, watched, ex-,
cited or claimed to just the prdkper degggjy .
iia the only moaus of .restorip^to ilia right,
mind and triM uature one who has wanduM**
ed from the paths of reason. < ?
Could a private hospital be formed, un-'|
der Llie.charge of some physician of ability, ;
to reach the *vhole com plexitis of tliesc
ease*, study their bietoryand desire, aro hua-~
dreds, perhaps thousands of families ot' largo
fortuuiv who would willingly pay any fair
t amount.and wlio would rejoice to place
their friends, and some to enter of tlienir
' selves, under, the care of so valuable afrieud
as such a physician would prove. >' ,X- '?

worthy musician yf the orchestra of a theatre
on the boulevards. This fine . fellow;,
having toasted Bacchus for a considerable
period of time, returned home at two in
the morning, staggering and sighing. Arrived
at his door he finds a drunken man
