\ We place the following article from
the Providence journal first under on,
editorial head, as we consider the sub
Ject matter Of more than common impor-
lance. a correspondent in Monday's
Journal suggests the idea Of soliciting
s. subscriptions, which we think "A good
one. The writer says
"MR. EDITOR Allow me 10 sup.
gest to the Committee appointed to raise
funds for the Insane Asy lam, and to the
public, the proprirty of asking for 81
subscriptions. Could some one on The
East, and another on the West side call
a, the houses aud Stores of our citizens.
ihey would find great number ready to
contribute their mite in aid of an iu,Iitu-
lI"n IN which all are generally, and un-
Ger the Prorideqce Of God mny be per-
