Some Mental Phenomena, Once in a conversation with the Sev as of London, the subject under con sideration being metaphysics, ths cel ebrated philosopher, David Home 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 .ngerics of organs, there being as many primary organs in the brain as faculties in the mind, every faculty being put forth by an organ, and every organ putting forth a facul ty, for God novel created anything in 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 •slity.

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 - ^ ana believe, every rcp*iemau on uus floor can to-day look iato tho face of the other and call him friend. .
