Of the people; and these officers and agents keep

specially ask that the payments, not au-
thorized by the appropriations, may be le-
galized-and 1 earnestly urge, either that
the Directors be authorized to draw at dis
erection, or some other remedy be devised
by which the Treasurer be protected from
the personal responsibility Ofmaking pay
mehts not authorized by law, or allowing
the Institution to be dissolved for want of
adequate support. The unsettled condition
ofthe currency and prices, render it impos-
sibe to make estimates of the wants OF the
Institution. s9fproximating accuracy.
This Institution is supported by direct
appropriations from the Treasury, but the
laws. contemplate the reimbursement of
the amount expended for charity patients,
by the counties from which they are seat.
The act OF 1853 appropriates not exceed
ing $4,000 year for the support Of the
Institution, and provides that ".no county
shall be required to pay-mOre than at the
rate Of S144 per annum for each individ-
ual insane person sent to the Asylum"
For the past two years the amount drawn
by the Institution is as follows: =
For 1865, appropriation, So. 800
Amount overdrawn for 1868, 1900
For 1864, appropriation, 2l2,500
Amount overdra..n, $4,000
Total expenses, S357,5OO
From this it will be seen that while the
expense of supporting this Institution for
the year 1853 was increased nearly three
fold, and for tie year 1864, more than
eleven fold, this amount to be paid by the
counties, has not been increased.
Inc amount actually reimbursed by the
counties in 1864 is $1S,S19,H.
The act of 1853 provides that each pay
ing patient shall not be charged less than
at the rate of 5000 per annum. AT what
ra'e paying patients have been charged by
the directors since the expenses have run
up as above set forth, l do not know.
recommend that the counties and paying
patients be required TO pay in the ratio of
tie incl eased expenses of the Institution.
The amounts due from the several coun-
ties on account of INDECENT patients, up to
January LIST, 1864, as per the official certif-
icate of DR.. Fisher, superintendent of the
Institution, have been paid, with the fol-
lowing exceptions, to wit:

taxes vastly ancreaSed: or the State debt

think the State debt ought not to>be
increased. The rapid increase of it has
already injuriously affected the value of
all State securities. The premium atwhich
State bonds or Treasury notes can now be
sold for Confederate currency, is greatly
less than it was one year ago; and their
marketable value will be impaired in the
ratio of the increase Of the State debt
A State bond for 81 900 running thirty

it must be much more grievous neces-
sity than I think now exists, to warrant an
increase of the State debt at a sacrifice so
rnnous but if the State should throw on
the market any considerable amount of
our bonds, they would have to be sold at
still more ruinous rate.

that of the 9th June, 1851, turning over

By the act of Dec. 90, 1862, the sum of
$62,5OO per. annum, for the years 1868 and
1864, was appropriated for the support of
this Institution, and at the extra session of
December, 1868, upon the representation
of the Directors that this sum was made
quate, further appropriation of $4,000,
for the year 1854, was made, making the
total appropriations for 1863 and 1864
$275,0OO. The whole appropriation was
drawn long before the end of the fiscal
year 1854, and the alternative was left the
treasurer of honoring the drafts of the
Directors, unauthorized by any appropri-
alton, or allowing this benefcent 1nstitu-
ton to be diSbanded. The General As

dsy evening" last The saloon of the Hall was
crowded TO its utmost capacity, and hundreds
we're compelled to go away, being unable to gain
admittance. Hon E. G. Bradford, delivered an
able and telling address, in which he thoroughly
canvas'ed the issues involved in the present
contest, and conolusively showed that the re-
storation Of peace and the Union depends on the
recollection Of Mr.. Lincoln to the Presidency
The eloquent orator was listened to througbou,
with an attention that proved that the people
appreciated the effort as one worthy of the cause
Of liberty. During the delivery Of Mr.. Brad
ford's speech q telegram was read from General
Sheridan, announcing his glorious victory over
Early at Flint Hill, which was received with the
most unbounded applause. Col. Bowman in

done him, but declined to make a speech
Altogether it was fine demonstration. and gave
evidence that the Union men OF Wilmington, are
