FROM SURGEON J. BEDFORD ALLEN,
Superintendent, Patna Lunatic Asylum,
To THE DEPY. INSPR.-GENL. OF HOSPITALS, DINAPORE CIRCLE.
Dated Patna, 1st January 1870.
SIR,
I HAVE the honor to submit the several returns of the Patna Lunatic Asylum
together with my report for the past year.
I took charge of the asylum upon the 13th July 1869.
The past year has not been a healthy one, though we have had no serious outbreak of
any epidemic. The hot season was very trying, and the rains unusually heavy with severe
inundations ; the rate of mortality consequently high.
Statement No. 2 shews an increase in admissions, &c., of 14, and a decrease of 3 remain-
ing at the end of the year.
Statement No. 3 contains abstract from the annual return of patients, male and female,
and nature of insanity, drawn out according to the new nomenclature of diseases.
Statement No. 4.—The attributable causes of mental diseases amongst those under treat-
ment. Gunja, bhang, and intoxicating spirits, as usual, predominate as the exciting causes.
Statement No. 5 gives the castes and sexes, together with the several zillahs from
whence they were received.
Statement No. 6 gives the trades and occupation of those admitted. Nothing especially
to be extracted from this form, save that laborers and cultivators appear to predominate.
Statement No. 7 is interesting, shewing the greater number attacked with insanity
between the ages of 20 and 30, and next those between 30 and 40.
Statement No. 8.—The causes of mortality and duration of confinement at period of
death.
Dysentery, diarrhœa, and malignant cholera, were the chief causes.
Two deaths by accident occurred. A man went to draw water at the garden well, which
was left unprotected for the moment, and apparently (from the report made by one who saw
him) had a fit and fell in head foremost ; the second man, in hospital, is supposed to have been
kicked by another insane, causing fracture of a rib and perforation of the lung.
Statement No. 9 gives the annual expenditure, which exceeds that of the previous year.
This is to be attributed to the enhanced price of articles of food.
Statements Nos. 10 and 11 shew the profits of the lunatics' labor and abstract of
estimated value of said labor.

after his arrival his fitness for his important office became suspected by Dr. Hutchinson,
and his subsequent misconduct and necessary removal have already been fully reported.
He quarrelled with the whole of the native establishment, who entertained no respect for
him, and especially with the native doctor, who had up to that time been a useful and atten-
tive man, but eventually became so insubordinate and insolent, that he had to be suspended
and sent to a distant and inferior post as a punishment. The native doctor appointed in his
room appears to give satisfaction, as does the native overseer or darogah who was put
in subordinate charge of the asylum as a temporary measure until the arrival of a European
overseer transferred from Cuttack. I trust that things will work well and smoothly under
the superintendence of the latter, and it is proposed to place his wife in charge of the female
ward should she prove to be qualified for the post.

No. 4.
FROM SURGEON J. MACDONALD,
Superintendent of Lunatic Asylum,
To THE SECY., INSPR.-GENL. OF HOSPITALS,
INDIAN MEDL. DEPT., CALCUTTA.
Cuttack, the 12th January 1870.
SIR,
I HAVE the honor to forward herewith the annual returns of the Cuttack
Lunatic Asylum for the information of His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal.
2. On the 31st December 1868, 36 patients remained under treatment, viz., 29 males
and 7 females. 16 have been admitted for the first time during the year 1869, 14 males
and 2 females ; and 5 males have been re-admitted. Total treated during the year, 57. 4 have
been discharged cured, 3 improved and taken charge of by their friends, transferred to other
asylums 1, died 2 males and 1 female ; total remaining on 1st January 1870, 46—38 males
and 8 females.

3. The first death was that of a patient named Poorustum Mahanty, who was
discharged as cured on 22nd December 1866, and was re-admitted on the 13th May 1868.
He was attacked with dysentery on the 23rd April 1869 and died 10 days afterwards, having
on this occasion been in the asylum 11 months and 18 days.
4. The second case was that of a woman named Mussumat Shonah. This woman was
admitted on the 2nd April 1867, suffering from monomania. She did not complain of any
sickness, and seemed to take her food well ; it was, however, observed on the morning of the
27th July 1869 that her legs from the feet upwards had become œdematous, and she died
suddenly at noon on the same day.
Post-mortem examination about three hours after death.—The brain appeared healthy,
the pericardium was much distended with serum, the lungs were congested ; all other organs
healthy. She had been a patient in the asylum 2 years, 3 months, and 25 days.
5. The last case was that of a man named Kessub Narayn Ojha ; he was received into
the asylum on the 12th March 1867. On the 29th of October 1869, shortly after leaving
the cell in which he had slept the previous night, he complained of severe headache. Cold
water was applied to the head, which he said relieved the pain ; a small blister was placed
on the back of his neck. He returned to his cell and lay down still, saying that he felt better.
On one of the warders looking in an hour or so afterwards, he observed that he was breath-
ing heavily, and on attempting to rouse him, found he was almost insensible, and he died
about 2 hours afterwards.

CUTTACK ASYLUM.

I am an advocate for loom work and other occupations involving no manual labor in
our asylums, instead of the more laborious occupations above alluded to. Let the profit
arising on these manufactures be credited to the fund, and assist in the support of the institu-
tion ; but I do not think it is desirable to employ our insanes on work that must be a call,
and a potent one, too, on the reproductive powers of the system. The lunatics were all well
clad in this asylum, and very clean-looking.
