TO ,gFzE PRESS.
Let the People know il
HOW rnElNsANE ARE CARED FOR

We would call the attention ofthc Press
throughout the State to.a condition Of
things which calls for speedy action AT
The hands of those who manipulate the
earnings Of the people.
In tile County Jail at this place nrc con-
fined three lunatics-two men and one
woman-all Of whom have been there for
several months, waiting admission to the
Insane Asylum. The jails at Buckhan-
non, Charleston, Cabell Court House.
aud twenty or thirty other counties are
similarly represented. Tits plain that SO
long as these unfortunate people remain
in their present quarters, there can be no
possible chance even fur un amclioralion
Of their terrible malady. Aud thus at
least SEVENTY-FlVE luna,ies, of whom,
the State is tho special guardian, are
given over to life uE assured insanity,
which in many cases might be uroi cd by
their immediate admission and proper
treatment at the Hospital. -
While VIC have all necessary regard for
the good name of West Virginia, uud
while it would be the part Of policy to
exclude such instances of wilful barbarity
az the above from the pnblic gaze, yet toe
fact, known us it is to be true III every
particular, cannot but cause our rulers TO
be looked upon with the contempt which
their lack OF sense and humanity has cast
upon them.
y The money squanncrcd in sustaining an
infamous registration law would have more
\tlan completed the Insane Asylum, and
Hus given proper attention to the uufor-
tunatrs who ore suffering for want Of the
shelter that institution affords. And We
must confess our surprise to sec money
layislcd by the Superintendent in beauti.
flying the grounds, building fences and
lodges, and making fsh-ponds and car
riage drives. but not n cent towards the
completion of the building.
Whilo VIC know That The treatment Of
nc lunntics confined in the JUL at this
place is fully as good as can DO under the
circumstances, yet there can be no doubt
IF the benefits they would derive from be-
ing admitted to proper care at the Asy-
lum. And, judging from the last report
of the Superintendent, the actual cost Of
their keeping and tile necessary attend
nnce would be far less in the Asylum
than out it,
: Its incumbent then, from considcra.
tions ofhumauity and economy. and to re-
move tic rcproach Which rests upon US as
a people, that this matter should receive
prompt attention; aud that during the
coming session Of the Legislature, proper
steps should be taken to ensure the carly
aud economical completion Of the Insane
Asylum-if not its completion, at least
enough Of it to admit those who ire, aud
must get still more dcrangci in tic close
aud unhealthy confinement of the county
jails Of The State.
