Hospital for the Insane.
From The Iaeia ma Jouanal.l

We hve before US the eight annual re-
port of the Commissioners and Supe rim
tendent Of the Indiana Hospital for the
Insane. From il we gather that l 1850
cases have been admitted to the bene Il Is
Of the Asylum since its first erection. =
Five peS cent. OF the whole number OF
patients have been discharged unimprov-
ed. Fiity-five per cent. have been en-
tirely cured. and nearly ten per cent.
have partially recovered, which is not es.
timating the number now in the Hospi-
tai.
The appropriation last esked of the
Legislature for improvements to the south
wing of the Asylum building have proved
inadequate BY upwards OF e20. 900. while
the appropriations for the current exper-
ses Of the Institution are full and ample.
The estimated number of Insane per-
sons in the State including those in the
Hospital. is 1900.
Some interesting remarks on the in
termarriage Of relatives, asa cause of in
sanity, are found in the report.
The report recon mends several i'm
provements about the hospital. and asks
for an appropriation with which to pur.
chase library.
An appropriation of e6S. 900 is asked
for as support for 245 patients for two
years after the first of April next.
IL is proposed to extend the moth wing
OF the Asylum, a part to be occupied in
1856 and a part in 1858. For the two
years so. 900 is asked for in extending the
building.
The smourt ssked for the support OF
the patients and for liquidating the debts
OF the institution for two years. is eel.
27l "a.
The number Of insane seeking homes in
the hospital is larger than its present di-
mensions will accomodate.
During the year ending October 81.
1856. there were admitted into the hos.
pital l66 patients. In the same period
II died. 6 were Improved. 100 discharged
as recovered. The number under treat.
ment during the year was 366.
In 1850 cases OF insanity that have
been treated the probable causes are stat
ed in table.
