State Lunatic Asylum, at Utica, which was com
menced in I544, and the English Journal o. f'y-
Geological Medeine, conducted by DR.. Winsiow'
The benefits resulting to society from the con-
fnement of the insane in hospitals are every
where appreciated. and no attempt to discontinue
apy such institution has ever been made. In
both the Old and New Worlds, they were orig'-
nally founded by private benevolence' and wnen
their success was manifest they received liberal
assistance from the public treasury. The action
of various governments has, in effect, decided
that the pauper insane are morally II not iesaiy
the wards of the State. To such an extent mas
this sentiment been adopted in this country that
Congress at its last session passed bill " making
ga grant of ten million acres of the public lands
"to the several States for the benefit OF INDECENT
"insane persens;" but this was vetoed by Mr.
Pierce on the ground of its unconshtuslonality
The direct benefit to the patients is shown by
the statistics of their improvement and cure. In
several of our best hospitals, about one-half OF
all admitted have been fully restored to sanity,
and again become useful members of society.
Such success calls upon the State Legislatures
to make all necessary provisions for this unhappy
class, and upon our benevolent citizens for re-
membrance in their donations, of the institutions
for the treatment and cure of these unfertunates.

HOSPITALS FOR TIE INSANE.

We are not surpassed by any other nation in
providing special public institutions for the care
and cure Of the insane. There are now in the
United States thirtytwo insane hospitals in active
operation, and nine others in construction or
nearly finished of which twenty.eight are State
institutions, six arefor the paupsr. of the largest
cities three are branches of general city hos pitals
and chiefly for pay patients, two are incorporated
and aided by State subsidies, though denepdeut
upon their earnings one is designed mainly for the
insane OF religious denomination, and the LAT !.
that at Washington for the Army and N.vv and tho
District Of Columbia and there may ssiphe .a5.a
another. which is small and strictly priy,,a 60
lum, near Boston.
The first American institution of this lima :.
now upward Of century old. In 1851 the Penn
sylvania Hospital was chartered "for the relief
"of the sick and the reception and care of luna.
"tics, " and from its opening in l756 the insane
department has always constituted prominent
part Of that noble charity. In 1863 the Colonial
Government Of Virginia founded the Lunstic As

of the time the competition for the supply Of the

fifty per cent. to the priceof fuel Hadthe tariff Of
1876 remained unhesrdo Of the supply OF coal would
before this time have reached ten millions OF suns.
and the demand would have kept pace with the
supply-the destruction of lS5O-5l would have
been ayoided-and our people would now be sup
piled, as we confidently believe, at lower prices
than even in lSl6, as the machinery for its eX-
traction and transp ortatiOn would have been
greatly improved
Nevertheless. in face Of these facts, proving
that Protection is the true road to chespness. we
hear everywhere cry for more free trade

Another fugitive slave case is before Mr.. Commis-
sioner Ingraham of Philadelphia, whose huge loyalty
to the South caused him to pack of TO the region
of chains and whips a wrong man. A sharp look out
must be kept upon the doings Of this " Democratic"
Commissioner.
The negro claimed in the present instance Is named
Henry Massy, the property" Of Franklin Bright,
Queens County, Md. He was arrested at Harris-
burg Pa. The District Attorney, J. c. vandyke,
appeared for the claimant, and ID. p. Brown and w.
A. Jackson for the fixture.
w Z. Lynch Of Kent Island, Queen Anne Co.,
Nd, swore to Brghts ownership Of the chstte in
question. II seemed, however, that the negro was
Left by the father Of the claimant Franklin Bright TO
bis brother Joseph Bright, who died last summer,
leaving viii, but the negro not specified in it,
and the estate is not yet settled. VIM. Birly, Dep
uty Marshal, who assisted to seize the chatel test
fed that the ehsttel said be was cbatel or in other
words, owed service to Bright. Commissioner In
graham this time was in no extra hurry to pack Of
the chatte and required affidavit from the chst:el
of the facts which it relied on, and on the affidavit
being made postponed the further hearing until Mon
day. The trial was quietly conducted-but two
black persons present, and but few whites. Virtue,
Liberty and Independence Is the motto OF Pennsyi-
yania.

III, Ersniag Post attempts to answer the ar
tcle on Coal in our lash giving citations in our
language and commenting at length. In so do
ing it
|. Concesls the fact shown by our article that
the present duty on Coal was not imposed BY
Protectionists, but by avOwed Free Traders'-
its own party,-carried into power by the elec-
ton of Polk and acting under the lead OF Robert
J. Walker. They abolished the Wing Protective
Tariff and erected in its stead one which they de-
clared to be levied for Revenue only The Poas
article assumes throughout that the present Coal
duty is one fer which ProtectiOnists are somehow
responsible, when in fact it was carried over our
heads and against our most strenuous opposition.
9 The Post does not allow its readers to know
that we prored by full and fair citations from the
New. York Prices Current, that Coal ruled de-
cidedly lower in our market under the Wing Pro-
tectiye duty of one dollar and half per tun spe-
cifc. than under the lowest duties preceding or
under the much reduced Free Trade Revenue
AID yalorem duty imposed in 1916 and ever since
retained.
8. 1t talks of Coal as now protected BY
"hlgn duties dRniusI CViPchb"n hon ""'""~'
intimates that the duty is three dollars and
half per tun. states that the present price is
developed" under Protective Tariff" &c,
&c, in defiance of the fact which we "devel-
"oped" and The Post carefully conceals-
namely, that the actual average rate Of duty paid
on imported Coal during tds two last fiscal years
was trihe under sirtyJfce cents per tuS. Such
is exactly the extent of "this oppressive bur-
"den"-this punishment The Post
represents as the main cause Of the present high
price of Coal Are these things honest Does
not The Post walk in craftiness and seek victory
at the expense of truth
We might proceed to show how utterly fAlla-
ciOus is The Posts representation that we might
supply ourselves with Coal from Europe shipped
as ballast to lighter fabrics at as low rate Of
transportation as is charged from Philadelphia.
Il is true that few thousand tuns are or may be
thus shipped; but any demand for shipping half
the Coal now burned in this country would carry
up freights from Liverpool to point above even
the present high price of Coal. But we waive
further controversy until we can find antagonists
who do not deliberately ignore the facts of which
they are perfectly aware.
New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1854-09-28

The rush of foreigners and foreign ideas Of
liberty into this country eivej rise to history
that will not coalesce with that of Bancroft In
bis eOuieur de-rose accounts Of the American de-
vOtion to that goddess. We have had the spec.
taele Of church burnings, but they were ths
episodes of street fight, in which the party act
ing as incendiary had suffered the loss of some Of
their friends killed brutally by their antagonists.
But to threaten in cold blood to burn down
house consecrated to religious purposes Is some.
thing new, and that novelty has just shone out In
Cincinnati. 1t seems that the Presbyterians fitted
up building near White Plains, Twelfth Ward,
Cincinnati, with Sabbath school. The second
Sunday after the school was opened a party Of
Germans waited upon the officers of the school
and requested them to close it, This German
request was not complied with of course. The
next Saturday night the school room was entered
by perons who tore up the school books and
broke up and threw out the furniture into the
street. The trustees determined to open fresh
school. But, not to multiply details, the Ger
mans informed them that they would destroy the
school afresh and KILL the parties Some friends
of the trustees, finding war-to-the. knife 80 de-
clared, themselves opened the campaign, and
attacked two houses occupied by Germans. A.
riot ensued. Among other things, three men
were shot, but not fatally wounded. Bat tho
school is to be opened next Sunday; so should it
be, come what may.
Comment on such circumstance seems i'm.
possible. The attempt Of foreigners just re-
deemed from bondage at home and welcomed to
Freedom and Equality, thus to stab Liberty,
seems to palsy ordinary condemnation from its
very mOnstrosity.
