Insane ASYLUM,

We regret that the bill for the establish
ment Of an Insane Asylum at Marysville hal
been defeated in the Assembly. 1t was n
matter of justice to the North and should
have been passed, AS it was lost by only
one vote, we are inclined to think that. had
there been full attendance ofthe members
it would not have been defeated. We per
ceive that a similar bill has been introduced
into the Upper House by Senator Allen, ant
we have strong hopes that 1t will be pascet
through both houses. Both hodies are in full
possession of all the facts and reasons whicl
govern the case, and it is not necessary tC
reiterate the arguments which have been SO
literally used on the subject We have only
to repeat that it is act of simple justice to
the North. and, If it is refused hy otheT sec
tions. all we have to say is that the North
will probably remember it.

Chinese Immigration.

We publish, on our third page, the report
Of the special committee on this SUBJECT III
the assembly, as we find it in the poOIshed
proceedings in the Union. 1t VIII be seen
that the committee regard any State legisla-
tien, having in view the exclusion OF the
Chinese from the country, MS unadvisabe, and
recommend the passage of a resolution ap-
healing to the Congress Of the United States
for the enactment Of law preventing Chi
nese immigration. This is certainly the only
remedy for the difficulty, but it is very doubt
full whether our Government can. or, fit can,
will inaugurate such policy, in the face Of
existing treaties between the United States
and China. The exclusion of foreigners, lin
cluding Americans us we'll as others,) from
China, has been the grand feature Of the i'm
memorial Chinese policy against which our
gotiations with that country, and now that
that barrier to our commerce has been IN u
measure broken down, it is doubtful whether
Congress would like to run the risk of losin z
all that has been gained by resorting to the
same kind of excusiyeness of which it has
been complaining, until recently, on the part
ot China. The subject is one OF very great
difficulty, and the National Legislature in
considering the question will be apt to regard
it in its broad national bearings rather than
with reference to the interests Of any particu-
lar State or section.
We should think that the enactment OF "A
law by the State Legislature excluding the
Chinese from the mines, would obriate any
necessity Of Congressional action The main
inducement that brings that people to these
shores is the mineral wealth Of the country.
To exclude them from the mines would pro-
duce great temporary Inconvenience to the
cities by budding hordes of Chinese into their
limits, but this evil would soon regulate it
self, for. finding no employment in the coun-
