Chapter 4th., on the “Human Miud.” Editor Democrat: Speaking at the close of ray last No, 3rd., of some of tha praise, worthy results of tlie Human Miud, I will continue on the same lino of thought hoping thereby to interest you and your readers more fully. Wer# it not for this grand arrangement of mental exer¬ cise—vain would he tho varied pleasures of life. Nj beauty in any of the floweis of art or nature. Tlie book of passing nature, its author divine in tlie created wonders of tha world, the eye, however, convenient and beaming with bright to , all its leaching ,. distance of I ness see ! sight, ... would fail to please, , witheut ,, , the ,, mind to know the origen, contrivance and purposes of such attraction, the arm ! and hand what could they do-uuless directed like any business, tho secret lies in some power to rule. Then the mind | is master to tell the body wliat to do. j This is natural, Tlie mind, as it were, governs the action, affection, judgement and principla of man. To prove this, taken visit to any asylum. See there plain cases of m>sery. Lost to friends, pleasure and prosperity. Inquire into their condition, what is the answer. Pitiable ,, place, to , • the ,« no more enjoy peace of society—excluded entirely from the real nleasu-e pleasure of or life lUe, some some or of their tfieu Past past may have once—when they had reason been pleasant and profitable, but now they are without feeling—and worse than 1 all aU wicked WICK#C1 ’ they 1 are * t,e like the 118 beast of the forest in dispo*ition. They do not hesitate to take life, All . Tl they want to exhibit their cruilty , just lel them have a chance. The most . ‘ u LiDdtc . f , ;« end n( l and and colativc |8utive wmil.l ouil often ft 1 greatly endanger themselves to un protected into the presence of the insane, w hy is all this true? Not because they ^ »• •*» ^ »• cause is simply this, they have lost their minds—reason is dethroned, have been deprived of their intellectual organism, the grandest endowment in the gift of their nature, fs it not then certain that the mind is of immense value! Some i*o pie,however,seem lo forget aridlive iust as if they had no ttn » of mental Wlit y* A groat many do net consider it of importance and neglect tho cultiya t j on of t b e ir minds. They make it ate pQ&r they are wise enough yet in the vary Light of ignorance, still they let the mind, the second most important work in the formation of true manhood, lie rusty dormant and unused. However, good or had may be the metal, they refuse to wliet up aud improve their intellects. Farmers among these are generally posted with the time* and care little about ! or take bo interest in the great study of fine literature. The miud is notaxplod ed from rock nor chiseled from wood, i u senaiU-»ssily tendered. All that is necessary t> develop it, is attention and moderate exercise. Cultivate the mind in tan# with noble principles and untireing energy aud it will succeed. The mind Ike the body will grow strong f l0m labor it will grow in ignorance or v i eoas the brightness of the morning sun toillu*iuate the world.

The way of success is opan to ail. Then may we receive the admonition to rally for us to think of having by a kind prov¬ idence, Human minds and go to work to improve them.

They are those who have by persever¬ ance cultivated minds, not however, men who had baen blessed with rich legacies, estates etc., hut young men. that were raised in poverty, but studi¬ ous and anxious to learn, they recogniz¬ ed the fact, tiiey had minds, that ought to bo useful and improved. • Ilunc# they \ labored for an education, ’ the result of “ » hey f re hoU,nK .
