What is Nervousness?— Various answers might be given to this question, according to the constitution and knowledge of the individual. Strong healthy persons, whether medically educated or not, generally regard, nervousness as more or less an "imaginary complaint ;" it is sometimes oniy believed to be real when the patient is found to be dying: or dead. The best answer to the question, probably, is this ■^-Netvousness ..is. an unnatural condition ofthe nervous system. Sometimes this unnatural state is' accompanied with considerable bodily weakness, loss, of flesh and loss of strength ; but.in iriost cases there is in the earlier stages of the 'disorder no outward sign of weakness, the sufferers are found in both sexes ; they often have. the bloom of health upon the cheek ; they are surrounded by kind friends, yet existence to them has no charms, for they feel .that they cannot enjoy it. Without intending it/ they annoy other people about the merest trifles ; if they encounter some person unexpectedly they feel confused, afraid, and alarmed ; the heart beats violently, the hand shakes when j writing, and the whole frame at; times experiences a complete tremulousness, The intellect also is sometimes clouded, the memory fails, the judgriient becoifies indistinct, the will capricious and undecided/the taste vitiated, the imagination broods upon unpleasant topics, the spirits are very low or very excited, the ordinary duties of life become burdensome, society is shunned, and business neglected. ' A Stance Spectacle.— It is certainly strange, but not the less true, that perfectly sanepersons in the prime of life, with firm step and healthy countenance, may occasionally be met with, who, in spite of possessing all the advantages of education, religion, ample means, and kind friends, nevertheless are victims of the nervousness above" described ; unhappy themselves, they render other people unhappy. Why is this ? • What cause has operated to change the cheerful, active, obliging, unsuspecting,, and uncomplaining youth into the unhappy," drowsy, Ustlest, suspicious, and gloomy misanthrope ? Many causes, or one cause only, may operate to produce this- sad state ; the cause may be either mental or phypiealj or both combined. Attempts to Cure Nervousness by means o ordinary tonics have so. frequently proved fruitless that the leadjng physicians now for the most part recommend hygienic means, such as exercise in the open air, regular habits, sea bathing, the cold bath friction; change of air and scene, as in travelling. If all these fail, as they often do, what is to be done?

Yet have they, by a sort. of professional prudery, .been either entirely overlooked by. medical writers or very imperfectly discussed, and^ thereby re-, linjquished to the irregular practitioner,"or to. the eritirely unqualified empiric. In the present era of high refinement and of luxurious, if not vicious enjoyments, and under the influence of noxious plans arid systems of' education, instances are very "numerous for whichmedical advice is required.' for the re-; mbval'pf ithe morbidly .'disqualifying' fc'ondi-: tions 'a^bout to be considered, but & not resorted to so frequently as it ought to be., Since: advice is thus often the ability. of those from whom the^ community haye a right to expect it, of the most judi- . cioiis kind, should be equally great in" pro-, viding it. ; There' is every Reason, also, tobelievethat it would be oftener sought after if the subj ect were • known to : be ( . more fully entertained fay the duly qualified members of the profession." — Dr Copland's Medical Die tionary, vol.' 11. .
