Well shall ye know the pathway back !

And know, these lands, thu ; ne’er wi re bought,

MANIA A POTII.
(continued.)
“I had wretched work last nitrht amanj
the nuns,’* continued R , “they infested
rny bed room at such a rate, I could not stir for
them.”
“ What had you to do with the nuns,” said
I.
“ 0.” replied he “ work enough: thev come
in crowds around mv bed. There was one
haggard wench of a thing who plagued mo
most devilishly. I could not {ret rid of her in
any way vvhatever. She was first at the foot
of my bed, and then at the head, then bv my
side. There were some very handsome ones
though, I tell you. And then eame the priest*
with their long gowns and held a consultation
on some very imnortant subject..”
“Writ could that have been ?”
“ Why, l do not know precisely, but l Lnma-
0. a 3 H-AitfLaasrsiri, paaMirsa pmsiLiawaaa
gined, that as my house was in a central part
oi the city, they concluded to meet here. I
think it was something about pulling down St.
Alary’s chappell and erecting a splendid br.tk
(Cutiiedml in its place.”
| 'Thus lie continued to converse for a long
time about the -priests and nuns, of whom he
seemed very muen afraid. But when 1 would
j divert ius mind tor some other topic, he would
\ talk as rationully as 1 ever heard him. His
S mental hallucination however, l discovered :n
--! creased every dav, until 1 began to lie tearful
: e would eiti or kill some ot us, or lay violent
hands on himself, and commit suicide. Fot it
j is one of tae ending symptoms of this disease,
(that it:, wretched victim immagmes all around
as demon > or enemies, and though as timid as
the lawn pursued by the reckless bloodhound
in tae chase, ye’ tiie first weapon he can get he
I uses upon Ir.M ow n body or some friend whom
he mistakes ioradevil. As this disease iiad
jeorne upon him, however, in a mild and grad
ual manner, and as yet lie seemed frequently
in his right mind, I thought it would be cruel
!to coniine him until we could bear with him i.o
j longer. Most willingly would 1 have left him
• now, as others did, could l have subserved the
I cause of humanity in doing it, and retained
itiiat sweetest of all comforts, a clear con
i
; science.
1 never shall forget the night, it was one of
trie coldest and most uncornlbi table, we ever
have in that wintery month, December. I
had returned at a late hour from some evening
amusement, and (bund R sitting in a medi
tative mood by the parlor fire, which proved to
be so comfortable, tout I proposed to study
j awhile before retiring to rest. Accordingly l
seated myselt and began to peru c some of the
[dry. and endless treaties which have been writ
jten on medical science, it was not long how.
[ever, before 1 was interrupted by the liusky
tones of R ’s voice, denoting the most in.
louse anxiety.
“Doctor, Doctor, do you see that,”said he.
“ What,” said I, turning round to look-at
the object wliicn hud attracted Ins attention.
“ Look there, in that candle,” said he, point
ing to the one bv which I bad been reading,
“ don’t you see the little fellows all dancing
there in a circle around it. W iiy tiiey are as
plain as the nose on my face.”
“ ’Tis an optical illusion yon labor under,
Mr, R ,” said 1. “ Wiiui you see, is mere
ly the force of immagination. You know you
have been a little out of sorts, and now you
are atlD ted with what the physicians term
double vision.”
This seemed to satisfy him a little; but ho
sulkily turned his head away w ithout asking
any questions, and I managed to move the can
dle out of his sight to keep him from inter
rupting me any mo e. I had scarcely howev
jor, become deeply engaged in my studies, ere
1 was aroused again by R in a much more
importunate manner than before.
“See here Doctor, at these lei lows in the
lire. Dear me liovv they must sulfcr.”
“ Where are they ” said I.
“ There ” he replied pointing 1 is finger to
the centre of a blaming fire, “ there on those
| burning coals, O, what agony ! Don’t you
! see them frying there alive ? Dear bless me,
jho w I pitty them ! Is it not cruel in any body
|to punish them thus ? How can we get them
out ?
“ I do not see any person in the lire,” said I
“you must bo mistaken. Now in order to
convince you, hold your hand close to the coals
and I will move them about with the tongs,
: and then if you see any one, I will acknowl
edge my mistake.”
He complied with my request, and soon
drew bock his hand with a vacant foolish smHe
as though his senses were returning, and as if
assenting to the truth of my assertion. But
this did not last long, his mind was soon roving
on some other object, which bore palpable evi
dence of its being diseased, while I was forced
to leave him to his idiotic reflections and seek
in the embraces of sleep, what he poor fellow,
was never destined again to enjoy. For could
he have slept refreshingly for four hours, bis
disease might have been easily subdued and lio
would have awakened a sound man. In tho
language of Dr. Ebcrle a patient laboring
| under Mania a Potu. must sleep or die: but
