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 lees an “imaginary complaint;” it is sometimes only believed to bo real when the patient is found to be dying or dead. The best answer to the question, probably, is this—Nervous ness is an Unnatural Contition op the Nervous System. Sometimes this unnatural state is accompanied with considerable bodily weakness, loss of flesh and loss of strength; but in most 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 in tending 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 writing, and the whole frame at times experiences a complete tremulousness. The intellect also is sometimes clouded, the memory fails, the judgment becomes indistinct, the will capricious and undecided, the taste vitiated, the imagination broods upon unplea sant topics, the spirits are either very low or very excited, the ordinary duties of life become burdensome, society is shunned, and business neglected. A Strange Spectacle. —lt is certainly strange, but not the less true, that perfectly sane persons in the prime of life, with firm step and healthy countenance, may occasion ally be met with, who, in spite of possessing all the advantages of education, religion, ample meatns, and kind friends, nevertheless are vic tims of the nervousness above described ; un happy themselves they render other people unhappy.
