VERMONT INSANE AsTLUM-Ihe thirty-seeond
annual report Of this institution has just appear
ed. Prom this it appears that GAG have enjoyed
the benefits Of the Asylum during the year l35
have been admitted, l3l have been discharged,
and 5l5 yet remain. OF those discharged, 46
have recovered their reason, and - have been
more or less benefited.
The Report of the Commissioner, Hon. Homer
Goodhue, Is brief. but highly satisfactory He
says he has visited the hospital every month. and
made thorough examination OF all its depart
ments. He bears testimony to the skill and en-
ergy eyineel by the Superintendent and his as
sistants in the management Of the Institution.
The income for the year past has exceeded the
expenditures by the sum Of s6l0.56; result
hardly to be expected, when the high price Of Ia
Dor and Of most of the necessares Of life is taken
into the account, alongside of the low terms of
admission to the Asylum, which in ordinary
cases are but $500 a week, and in none over
$500.
One OF the assistant physicians is DR.. L. B.
Minis, graduate of our Medical College, and not
long since the capable assistant surgeon Of the
First Vermont Cavalry. The trustees of the
Asylum may well be congratulated on having Sc
cured his services.
