The State Lunatic Asylum.

We have been favored with copy of the
First Annual Report of the Board of Trustees
Of the State Lunatic Asylum. The Institution
was opened on the last of October last Since
that time, all suitable cases that offered have
been promptly received. The wards specially
appropriated to the violent and noisy are still
unfinished, aud on this account it has been ne
cessary thus far, to restrict the admissions to
those forms of disease that could with propriety
and safety be Accommodated in the main building
The board for patients supported by their friends
has been fixed at three dollars per week The
price charged to counties and townships for
their INDECENT insane is 50 per week The
Trustees say
"There are at the present time in the State
penicentiaries and IN the different jjails of the
Commonwealth, a considerable number of in
sane, ne,-alleged criminals-who ought to be
transferred to the State hospital as soon as its
buildings are completed. There are also in
these institutions a few, who, from their pecu-
liarly dangerous character, and the utter hope
lessness of bGneftting them by treatment, can
never with prOpriety become inmates of the
hospital. To protect the community and the
ordinary insane from the dangerous propensi-
ties of these individuals, it would be necessary
to introduce into our wards, intended for the
treatment Of disease, all the most repulsive
features of prison, or that separate building,
having strictly prison character, should be
erected upon the grounds. Some legislation
viii be required before any of these cases can
be admitted, and some mode Of proceeding
should be adopted which will prevent any but
proper cases being received from these sources.
To Pennsylvania belongs the high honor of
having just a century ago, established the first
institution for the cure and treatment of the
insane in America, That original provision,

DIR. Curwen, the superintendent, says that
insanity, according to the best authorities. is q
deranged manifestation of the mental and moral
faculties, caused by q disorder of the organs. bv
means of which the faculties act He therefore
thinks that the earlier remedied measures are
applied, the sooner in all probability, will such
arrangements be corrected and removed. He
adds
can impression is very generally prevalent
IN certain classes Of the community that few
weeks hospital treatment is sufficient to effect
decided change OF restoration in any case. no
matter how long it may have existed and dis
appointment and dissatisfaction are expressed
by friends II this result be not perceived To
this impression We would oppose the recorded
and oft-repeated result of observation and ex-
perience, that insanity is disorder which re-
quires considerable time before any decided eff
feet is produced by any system of treatment ;
that under the most favorable auspices, and the
most Judicious system, very few cases entirely
recover In less than from three to six months :;
that, IN every case, the amendment is very era-
dual, and that the longer a case exists, the less
probability will there be Of restoration"

EBENSBURG, THURSDAY, MARCH IS. 1852.

State hospital, were the offspring of the efforts
! of her benevolent and public spirited citizens,
and were endowed by their own private means,
| almost without any aid from the public treasury.
Although the regulations then made for the ad-
| mission and custody Of patients have given grea
satisfaction, and tended in u high degree to
promote the best interests of the insane, and
been recognised many important occasions
as based 1.-The great law of humanity, -
still it may be worthy Of consideration, whether
now, that State provision is being made for
those thus afflicted, it may not be expedient TO
have a revision of the various laws on the SUB
iect and the legal relations of the insane plain
ly established by special legislative enactments
which, while securing to patients the inestima-
bic advantages of prompt and judicious trea +
ment, and atfording full guarantee that no le-
gal right has been trifed with, will at the same
time, protect those to whose care they are COM
mitted, from uni ust and vexatiOus proceedings
for proper performance Of their onerous du-
ties.
The board of trustees cannot refrain from Sc
conding the judicious remrrks of the superin-
tendent, in reference to the Importance of the
early treatment OF the insane, and also TO urge
upon the friends of the patients the necessity
Of steady perseverance in such course, as
long az there seems to be any prospect of their
recovery. No argument can be required at this
day to prove the great saving it must be to the
community, promptly to submit every case of
insanity to a liberal system of treatment, which,
in q few months, IS sure to restore large por-
portion to health and society, instead of, by
neglect and i'll treatment, confirming a malady,
which, more than all others, makes the sufferer,
and often those dependent on him, a burden to
their friends or the public for life''
From October to December 81 as we learn
from the Report of the Superindent, thirty-sev-
Ell patients admitted, Of whom thenty-four
were males, and thirteen females. The duration
of insanity before admission, as near as it could
be asccrtained was

washingtor's courtship and Marriage

Beautifully situated the banks of the Pa
munkey, is the mansion known as "fSe Khae
House" 1t stands on the site Of the one in
which Washington was married From Custis's
Life of Mrs. Martha Washington, we extract the
account of his cOurtship and marriage
It was in 1853 that Washington, sttired in
military undress, and attended by 8 body ser
want, tall and nstIitaire as his chief crossed the
ferry called the Williams, over the Pamunkey, :
branch of the York River. On the boat touch
ing the southern or New Kent side, the soldiers
progress was arrested by one Of those persona
ges who give the beau ideal of the Virginia
gentlemen of the old regime, the very soul of
kindness and hospitality. 1t was in vain the
soldier urged his business at Williamsburg, i'm
portant communications to the governor, &c.
Mr.. Chamberlayne, on whose domaine the mill
taire had just landed, would hear Of no excuse.
Col. Washington was q name and character SO
dear TO all Nirginians that his passing by one of
the castles Of Virginia, without calling and par
taking of the hospitalities of the host, was en-
tirely out of the question. The colonel, however,
did not surrender at discretion, but stoutly
maintained his ground till Chamberlayne, bring
ing up his reserve in the intimation that he
would introduce his friend to young and char
ming widow, then beneath his roof, the soldier
cspitulated, on condition that he should dine
only dine-and then, by pressing his charger
and borrowing of the night, he would reach
Williamsburg before his e1cellency could shake
ingly issued to Bishop, the colonePs body SER
!
the English charger, had been bequeathed by
the dying Braddock to Major Washington, on
the famed and fated field of Monongahela. Bish-
oy, bred in the school of European discipline
raised his hand to his cap, as much as to say,
Your orders shall be obeyed"
The colonel now proceeded TO the mansion,
and was introduced to various guests, (for when
was Virginia domicil of the olden time without
guests y and, above all, to the charming widow.
Tradition relates thatt they were mutually pleased,
on this, their first interview-nor is it remarla-
BILE; they were of an age when impressions are
strongest. The lady was fair to behold, of fasci-
mating manners, and splendidly endowed with
worldly benefits. The hero was fresh from his
early fields, redolent of fame, and with a form
on which " every god did seem to set his seal, to
give the world assurance of a man"
The morning passed pleasantly away, evening
came, with Bishop, true to his orders and firm at
his post, holding the favorite charger with one
hand, while the other was waiting 10 offer the
ready stirrup. The sun sunk in the horizon.
and yet the colonel appeared not ..,Twas
strange, twas passing strange :" surely he was
not want to be single moment behind his an
pointments-for he was the most punctuaI Of. all
men.
Meantime, the host enjoyed the scene of the
veteran at the gate, while the colonel was so
agreeabiy employed in the parlor: and proclai-
ming that no visitor ever left his home at sunset
