Some Mental Phenomena,
Once in a conversation with the Sev

said: Let a number of learned heads
conjunction to talk of mind,
and the dissensions arising added to
the folly of other ages, if divided by
the number of learned heads the result
will be metaphysics.
The old notion that the mind is a
single element, discovers its paucity
when its advocates become sufficiently
enlightened to experment in mental
phenomena. The mind is not a one-en
tity, or single element, but is a combi
nation of faculties, each capable of
acting or resting, sleeping or waking,
of being cultivated or uncultivated,
strong or weak, sane or insane, apart
r or all the other faculties.
The brain is not a single organ, but a

many primary organs in the brain as

faculty being put forth by an organ,

Mind and brain are connected by ties
of such perfect reciprocity that it is
impossible to fully understand the
physiology of either without due refer
ence to the other. This being unqual
ifiedly true we will briefly refer to the
anatomy of the brain, which, in the
average haman subject, weighs to the
white male about 48 ounces.
It is composed of gray and white
matter, the gray being outermost, and
composed largely of small blood ves
sels, hence it is called the vessecular
neurine, while the white matter within
is composed of many small tubes, and

The two chief divisions of the brain are
the cerebrum and cerebellum; the
cerebrum being nearly five sixths of
the entire encephalic mass, an occupy

inter-cramal space. Surrounding the
brain are three membranes, called ths

Little replied in the following manner:
Gentlemen of the house of represen-
itivcs; I would indeed be destitute of
tho better feelings incident to human
nature, if I did not on thisoccasi<
press from my heart sentiments of pro
found gratitude.
In assuming at the commencement
1 the session, the delicate and onerous
uties of the presiding officer of this
house, I did assure you, feeling Die
ponsihility which your nartiality de
volved upon me,^duties which required
dis tructions to be made of a personal
nature, and which dealt with men,rath-
ti, myself, distrust-

From the time I first occupied that
der any circumstances, have
from any member or officer of this body,
anything except the kindest considera
tion and courtesy, and notwithstanding
the doubt which at times must have
been entertained as to correctness of
views held by the chair, thej havo been
enerously waivdaml yielded to in no
hesitating manner. For all this kind
and generous treatment I hr.vo in
heart a warm senso of gratitude,
a body you havo in my judgement,
given to the matters which came be
fore you consideration as careful and
attentive, as I have e"er seen given
iy similar body, and havo ap
proached questions to be decided in a
fair’ calm and deliberative manner.
In tho multitude and magnitude, of
the questions whieh havo been presen
ted for your consideration, it is natu
ral that you should have differed ax
fair, earnest men will do. It is natu
ral that in the heat of debate, in the
adoption of the rules of parliamentary
law, advance or defeat a measure,
warm feelings should become enlisted,
and some of the less noble passions of
humanity be aroused, but be it said
to yotir credit, that - ^
