A PARADOX. TO SUFFERERS. NERVOUSNESS: ITS NATURE AND CURE. Wn AT IS NERVOUSNESS ? Vaiious answers might bo given to this question, according to tho constitution and knowledge of tho individual Strong healthy persons, whether medically educated or not, generally regard nervousness as more or less an " imaginary complaint ;" it is somntimes only bolieved to be ical when the patient is found to be dying or dead. The best answer to tho question, probably, is this — Nervousness is an unnatural condition of the nervous system. Some times ibis unnatural state i» accompanied with considerable bodily weakness, loss of flesh and loss of strength ; but in most cases there is in tho enrlier stages of the disorder no outward ?ign of weaknoss. The sufferers are found in both sexes ; they often have the bloom of health upon tho cheek, they •ire surrounded by kind friends, yet existence to them has no charms, for they feel that they cannot enjoy it. Wi'hout intending it, they annoy other people about the merest trifles ; if they encounter some person unexpectedly they feel confused, afraid, and alarrced ; the heart beats violently, the hand shakes when writing, and the whole frame at times experiences a complete tnrnulousness. The intellect also js sometimes clouded, the memory fails, the judgment becomes indistinct, the will capricious and undecided, tho tasto vitiated, the imagination broods upon unpleasant topics, the spirits are either very low or very oxcited, tho ordinary duties of lifo become burdensome, society is shunned, and business neglected A Str\nqb Spectacle.— It is cortainly strange, but not tho less true, that perfectly sanu persons in the prime of life, with firm step and healthy countenance, may occasionally bo mot with, who, in spite of possessing all tho advantages of education, religion, ample means, and kind friends, nevertheless are victims of tho norvousness above described ; unhappy themselves, they render other people unhappy. Why is this ? What cause has operated to change tho cheerful, active, obliging, unsuspecting, and uncomplaining youth into tho uahappy, drowsy, listless, suspicious, and gloomy misanthrope? Many causes, or one cause only, may operate to produce this sad state ; the cause may be either montal or physical, or both combined Attempts to cure Nervousness by means of ordinary tonics have so frequently proved fruiltless, that tho leading physicirtns now for the most part recommend hygienic means, such as exercise in the open air, regular habits, sea bulbing, the cold bath, friction ; change of air and scene, as in travelling. If all theso fail, as they often do, what is to be dono ? The answer will bo found by carefully perusing th following work. Ninth Edition, Post Free, Is. 4d. NERVOUS DEBILI1Y ITS CAUSE AND CURE.
