It is of comparatively modern date that the insane have been treated upon corm - ft and scientific principles; and the sta_istics of in sanity, EV3 prepared by medical men, slow some curious faits. In Enviand, wh—e great attention 11F1 been Riven to the so' jest, it ha. 4 been ascertained that the liability tc, :he dis ease is greatest between twenty and forty years of age ; that the liability of the sexes is in the prop3rtion of i3tty..fi3nr per cent of males to forty , six of females ; that the awicultural population is more subject to insanity than the mannfa - iturer t at nutritious food iv more beneficial to the insane than a low fare; that personal restraint is hardly ever ab3oln -ly necessary ; and various other facts, all assist ing, more or leEi, to r' lace the proper treat ment of insanity *3 a - positive science, - In r, - a inteleptirig s..icie upon this suhj the Ledger states that the statistics of our American asylums e 'gee, in general, with these. In one respect, howeve - , the English statistics exhibit a striking different . ) from our own ; we allude '-) the vast proportion of insane among the pauper population. In England wid Walt:, in 1557, one r inpr out 3f every fifty wr 1 insane; whereci only one out of every four thousand of the non-pau per cllss wri no. In the large towns, such rs London, insenity prevails to a greater extent than in other towns, owihg, it is suppos-d, to the greater cerebral activity of the inhabi ta.ds, This f - et has its parallel in the United Staf--, where the largest proportion of insane is to to found in New England, tko cities als Inving more insane than the country. It would n' 9m ' Tt.tha vvc - dtby clasces, who are comparatively tree tra.a anxieties, enjoy the greatest immunity ; while the class which is most subj ct to it is the educated poor, whose whole life of -11 is a constant struggle. In may is increased by civilization, forming a contrast, in this rt3prat, to idiocy, which is rather the diSPIIB. of savage life. A fertile cause of insanity is religious exci . sment. The cause 3 of insanity are various. In round numbers, about ten per cent. a-e hered- Itary physical causes ; abaut s - sty-two per ant. moral causes ;aid the rema;nder un known.

"He can net bo a Pt esbyteriaa," said one, "for ho is not well dressed enough." "He is not a Methodist," said the other, "for his coat is not the tight cut for a Methodist." "If I conic' find his hymn book," said the daughter," "I could tell what sort of a preacher he is."

TRIRTY-PIETE CONGRESS FIRST SESSION Yesterday's Proceedings. ;I RN ATE The sperial order—the report of the Committee of Co rferenre on the Kansas bill—was taken uR. Mr. Sitie:t, of Michigan, having the floor; spoke on the gonerol quodtion, making many facetious hits. Ho took I,,:ound in favor of Mr. Crittenden's amendment, in preference to this miserable Confer ence Comtrith - ei proposition. He spoke ell nearly three o'clock, at which time there were only twenty. two Senators present. Mr. Pugh, of Ohio, replied at great length to tho speech of Mr. Stuart, closely following the various arguments ha ..dduced. He also examined the pro viainos of the Leavenworth constitution, and the attempt to adopt that instrument by means of ne gro suffrage, showing that all these proceedings wore void, and that there is no other legal constitu tion in Kansas besides the Leaompton. Mr. P. spoke till after four o'clock. Mr. Doolitt c, of Wisconsin, ropliod to Mr. Pugh, assorting that the issue rs'sed by that Senator, as to free negroes voting under the Leavenworth coned. tution, was a false one, the only object of which could bo to ruise up prejudice in the minds of the people of the slare-holding Static, and thus embar roqs the action of the free people of Kansas. Ile Plus'rated the rise of Kansas and the Conference proposal by the simile of the family of fair daugh ters, all of whom. Samuel, their father, has richly endowed except Kansas, who he insists must marry John, with a dower of hinds equal to the other six tars, or continuo single without a dower until she passes the certiin ago v, , b:oh ladios dislike, to pass unmarried. At this sttgn of tho prose dingo an agreement was ffectel to fidjourn rind ihahh the subject to-morrow. ht.I)SE 01 REPRE:fiENTATIVEB.

The e,o)qidoration of the report of the Committre of Conforenre on the Ileums bill was then resumed. Mr. Ali-111pm in giving his reason why ho withheld big salient to the report of the ma jority, avid ii did not rise to the dignity of a compro• mibe, open and above board, but was a species o dodge. if the prouldings of the Leeompton Con vention ebro legal end binding, and compulsive on the people, ithil if Cong7ess has no power to interfere, how, and by what process, w"1 the Locompton Con stitution became dead. Mr. ilowa-d eant;need: It reminded him of the fellow who craved pardon of his sovereign fur in truding bicoFelf before his majesty. He craved for. givenese for having knocked off the hat of a fellow subject The pa-don was readily granted. He then -3formed h s maiesty that the man's head was knocked off too. h this matter, wbile the Locomp ton Constitution is not submitted, in rejecting the or dinance the head of Lectmpton is knocked off. [Laughrer.l This sport is, for the best of all rea eons, offensive to the North. It bee degrading con dit 'one attaohr-d to it, to which he believed the North would never submit His eonstiduents, ho knew, would regard the proposition es rn insult. If the South yield so much, as is claimed, to principle, the North to to be the most cheated in the details. Mr. Davie, of Maryland, a 3 a repreatat've from a Southern slave Sta:c, 'n her name solemnly pro s tad this at'lmptsil inftirfor3neo with State rights by a condition of adulissicn Had it not boon v-gad by Southern ganoemsn that Kan-as would curve into , ho Union on an ege'r footing with the ...ris:nal St .toe. This woo 1".(3 ' , ,w of the South on the subject, Mr. .9' ,phens, was not ret•pr:setd that Mr. Davis ipposed the b", but was surprised at ' ' o ground of lie opposition. He (B;:phere) was born and roared in that school, rind any door. - 'ne he cherished more than another, it ras the rightof independence and sov ereignty of theiceparato Stat3s of the confederacy, And he main'a',ned that Ws subs'itu'l meta fully ed ootop!Cev carried out the doot ine thrn the Burin's VI, fa: which - he was riuing to vote. If K. Oa £59 haz`vutode application for admission as a free State, he w,:rald vote for it as readily as for a slave Ste- In reply to Mr. Davis, he showed that lowa and liouisialatllwere admitted on fondamen'A con. ditions, in the. former ease similar to teat in the pending propositior. The objections made by the gentlemwe 'rem Ma'yland were founded solely on a pretest. conclusion, ha eara , stly appealed to the House to end this question, with a view to go on with the public business. He was ready to defend the proposition irom beg:nning to end, and in every word rrid Mr. Gilman—ls the Constitution submitted ? Mr. Stephens—l toll you, gentlemen, distinctly, it is not. Mr. Keitt repudiated the doe:fine advanced by Mr. Davis. He was not willing to commit the rights of the South to that gentleman',[ custody.. He denied that the"ffederal Government is sovereign, and con. tended that each St.i . 9 is sovereign. He gave rea. sons why ho would support the bill. Mr. Bingham, of Ohio, did not find fault with the bill because it annexed conditions, but because a groat crime .was sought to be perpetra•ed, not only against Kansas, but against the Federal Constitution and the sacred rights of human nature. The bill did not submit the Constitution, but a bribe in land. If rtjee'sd, Kansas must suffer the penalty. It was simply an act of deep .[ism attempted to be imposed by Congress under the cover of our National Coned tption, which boars the name of Washington. Better that the Constitution-per'oh, than any precedent be placed on the statute book that Congress shall dic tate to frc -men under pains and penalties, than ad admission into the Union under an informal Consti tution that they never made. Mr. Clingnirl er'd that this proposition was not amenable. He presumed that gentlemen had made up their minds, and 'herefore ho moved the previous question. Mr. Stephens suggested that the vote be taken to morrow at-one o'clock. Mr. Marshall, of Kentucky, hoped that no such agreemenevould be made. Tho vote had beau' be 'aken to c' [Cries of " ageed."] Mr. Garnett, of Virginia, rusted that the demand for the previous question would not be seconded, ee he end several others wished to state reasons for their votes. ,Ir. Stephens ,moved a call of the House, but the motion beng disagreed to, he moved an adjourn ment. Mr. Harris', of Pinola—lt was the understanding yelonday that we should hko Ole vote to day. Mr. Stephens—That Nut what the gentleman would not agree to. The motion to adjoarn pieva l ed by two of a ma jorify. From New York.
