Report on the Westera Innate Asylum. /
We have received the report Of the
President and Directors Of the Western
Lnnatic Asylum, with report Of DR.: strsb-
ling the Physician in charge Of the Insti
tuition
The board speak in the highest terms Of
the good management, BY which in perl
cd Of thirty years, dcducting those now
remaining, more than one half Of the whole
number Of patients received have been
discharged cured, all Of which is owing to
the skill and devotion Of the Superinten-
dent and his assistants. They state that
a satisfactory arrangement has been made
with the Governor Of ". Va, for the sup
port of such inmates of the Asylum as
come from that section, they also state that
the expendituresfor the past year have not
only been kept within the appropriation,
but leave balance Of about S22100 OF
the fund on hand
The board are in favor Of the annual
visits to the Asylum Of Committee Of
the Legislature appointed for the purpose,
upon the grounds that such committees
should thoroughly understand the opera
tions Of the Institution whose duty it is to
provide for. DR. Stribling in his report,
states that at the commencement Of the
year there were 307 patients; 1T males;
| $50 fcmales-since admitted. 81 males; 80
females Now In the institution 3l1-total
cared for during the yca;, 3T4; males PA,
females 100.
The amount of sickness has been COM
| paritiyely small, and the per ccntase OF
deaths less than the annual average. No
case of suicide reported, nor has any pa
ticnt seriously injured self or others.
The Superintendent thinks that hui
mainly and a wise policy unite IN calling
for some prompt measure for the care OF
insane eolored persons, and says that this
class of unfortunatcs is rapidly increasing
in Virginia. he thinks that the interests
Of both, demand that they should be pro
vided for distinctly as class lie concludes
by tcndering the thanks Of the household
to the several publishers Of this State,
Maryland and n. G., for copies Of their
papers, sent gratuitously and his acknowl-
eagement to the Board Of Directors for
their generous confidence; to his associates
in Office and to attendants for valued as
sistance.
! We believe that no institution Of the
kind has been carried on with greater sue
cess. The Physician in charge is one Of a
thousand, aud possessed Of all the qualifi-
cations required by one in his position, a
gift bestowed by our Heavenly father for a
purpose, and the same can be said Of his
associates; Drs Hamilton and Berkeley
The Steward, Mr.. Saml Hoshour Ca bust
ness man in every sense of the word, the
Matron, Mrs. Tinsley, and the superin-
tendent of the grounds, Mr.. Samuel
johnson, are all emiuently suited for the
position they occupy and an honor to the
Institution.

The time is drawing near when the duty
ofelecting this officer will deyolve upon tie
people Of Virginia. In the piping times
Of peace" when the "Old Commonwealth I
was want to give laws othe United States,
it was incumbent upon her people to select
the best and wisest Of her fellow-c citizens,
to Eli this, the proudest and most dignifed
position. Much more is it their duty
nor when difficulties and dangers environ
US; when the steadiest nerve shrinks from
the contemplation Of the uncertain future
We feel all the responsibilities Of the
hour, when we suggest the name of the
Hon. John b. Baldwin, present Speaker
Of the House Of Delegates, as one well fit
ted to sustain all the high and solemn du-
ties which will pertain to the Office Of Chief
Executive of Virginia, for thecoming four
years; years 50 fraught with veal or woe to
this State and to the people Of the South.
1t is hardly necessary for us to say, that,
in times gone by, Col. Baldwin and our
selves differed widely in rpolitical views,
and it is probable now that in our ideas of
the theory Of the Federal Constitution We
could not agree, without agreeing to disa-
gree" But with the differences-the Cat
presently abstract differences between the
old parties of the country-we, Of the
South, have nothing TODD What we want
now is man of the first order of ability,
and thoroughly devoted to and identified
with the best interests of the State, and in
full sympathy with the people of his OPP
pressed section Such man we believe
Col. Baldwin to be. Weinvite an express
sion of opinion from the press of the State,
the only voice Of the people now, on this
important subject.
And in this connection we would sug-
gest the nameof Col. W L. Owen, of Hall
fax, for Lieut. Governor, and J. Randolph
Tucker for Attorney General. Colonel
Owens record is untarnished, and as a
business man he has no superior. J. Ran.
Tucker is too well known to be urged upon
the people, for the positionhe SO long and
ably filed. The Valley Virginian has not
mixed with politics generally, but these
are times that require men to fill positions
of trust in the State, and we feel conscious
we present such, for the consideration of
their claims by the people.
