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

that of ten persons attacked, five recover, and

two of them died.
At present there are fourteen thousand in

at a f.trmer'a—the owner being from home and
the, mother and daughter being alone, they re
fused to lodge the wayfr-er. " How far, then,"
sand he. " to a bowie where a preacher aaa get
lodging?" " Oh, if yen are a preacher," said
the lady, "y, ur .n s',s , here." Accordingly he
dismounted. He deposited his saddle-bags, and
led his horse to the stable. Moonwhile, tho
mother and daughter were debating the point as
to what kind of a preacher he was. "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." And with that she
thrust her hand into the saddle-bags, and pull
ing nut a flask of whisky, she exclaimed : " La!
mother, he's a Hard Shell Baptist."

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

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

the people, ithil if Cong7ess has no power to interfere,
how, and by what process, w"1 the Locompton Con

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,

a Southern slave Sta:c, 'n her name solemnly pro
s tad this at'lmptsil inftirfor3neo with State

the subject,
Mr. .9' ,phens, was not ret•pr:setd that Mr. Davis
ipposed the b", but was surprised at ' ' o ground of

in that school, rind any door. - 'ne he cherished more

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

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.

ffictod with aOovero pain - over the eyes, accompanied with
a nervoustmas and 801200 of dimness; a malady beyond the
power and skill of our physicians to relieve and cure, caused,
as far as I myself could Judge, by o 'diseased state of the
liver and stomach. Some of Cie doctors tried bleeding, and
various other remedies were tried, but all in vain, for the
deep.rocted disosee still stuck fast. At last I procured a
box of your valuable Liver Pills from a Druggist here, cod
feel, aftor taking a portion of thaw, that the disease and
painful sensation over the eyes has almost entirely left me.
I will close by advising all thoso afflicted as I have been, to
procure this valuable medicine at once, and save much tints
and pain, with little expanse. With sincere gratitude and
