lie opinion in the vicinity of Brattlebcro' was deci-
dcdly in favor Of the institution and thought it was
calculated to do great deal of good Mr. Hall of
B. said the people in its vicinity were very favora-
bic to the lnfrmary There had been one hundred
patients there within the last six months, most of
whom were much benefited, ond many entirely
cured. 1t wanted the incorporation to concentrate
funds 10 carry on its operations, and he considered
tins act quite necessary and an act Of Justice Mr.
Thomas thought the act Of incorporation was free
from objection the private property being holden,
and the act sub ,ct to future Legslntures-th it
was harmless at any rate, and he was disposed to
try it for one year at least. Mr. fIazen of H. in.
CURED whether the conductor of that institution
had not recently come from foreign pcnitentiary?
Mr. Fairbanks in answer said that he believed the
person IN question imprisoned III Germany on
account of his republican principles. Mr. Kendrick
thought, II the Undergraduates or any other school
wished to duck their patients they should do 1t on
their oUn hook. Mr. Rice said that the craft were
strongly opposed 10 the bill a matter of course.
lie thought that success had attended this practice
III great many cases, and noticed some instances
Mr. Converse said it was true he belonged TO the
crqjL but he had hostility to any practice that
was calculated TO do good. But he thought it tr-
hing to egislate upon every new thing that arose,
before its utility was fairly tested. He thought the
fare at the Institution rather high $40 a week for
colt Caier and tCet sheets. MIR Danforth thought the
subject rot one for ridicuc. The petitioners were
respectable, and they ought to be treated in res

condition OF his not returning again. He ack-
nowledged himself one of the craft alluded to,
whose business to amelioraIe the condition of
the human race every where. There were many
humbugs in the world that had sprung up and had
their day, which protested to be panaceas for the
various ills of the race, and he believed this one,
and that if The Legislature chartered this lnstitu-
ton, they would have the consolation, in a few
years. Of looking back and seeing they had char
tered a humbug. Mr. Stoddard admitted that ply
sicians were a class of men who ought thoroughly
to understand their business but as the craft thought
the practice harmless, and as many people thought
it highly beneficial, and the petitioners were very
respectable he hoped the bill would pass. 1t was

extensively, and III other parts of Europe, with
great success, and for considerable length of time
