Excerpt from Eclectic Journal of Medicine, 1887, Vol. 2 Addressing a population prone to such fatal mistakes in the management of children and youn persons, Dr. Brigham devotes several chapters to explma tions not required y medical readers, but which are extremely well placed in a work intended to inform the public. He points out the reasons which have ia duced physiologists to consider the brain as the material organ by which the mental faculties are manifested, describes the condition of the brain in early life, and the known effects of its excitement. He urges that mental precocity is usually a symptom of disease, and not a romies of future distinction, and ad duces examples to prove that the best an most powerful minds have not been firmed by early culture carried to excess; and in support of these opinions he quotes many authorities. The section of this little work which is calculated to make the strongest im pression on his readers, is that in which he shows the inżuence of mental culti vatioa and mental excitement in producing insanity, nervous affections, and diseases of the heart. He states that the number of individuals deranged in mind in the United States is as 1 to 269 of the inhabitants, whereas in Bygland itis but 1 in 820, and in Scotland 1 in 574. The moral causes of this great excess in America deserve investigation; and there can be little doubt that the grasses number of them would be resolved into some excitement of the brain.
