them up, often covered with blood. He was ia

to the many poor mothers in our land who are

WESTERN LUNATIC AsYLUM-We have
been presented with copy of the Report of the
Board of Directors and Medical Superintendent
Of the Western Lunatic Asylum for the fiscal
year 18e917O. This great State charity deserves
to be carefully fostered, and we hope that the
Legislature will not hesitate, to vote the appro-
priation of $4,000 recommended by the distin-
guished Superintendent, and sanctioned By the
Board of Directors. This amount is $4,000 less
than has been annually appropriated for some
years
It is gratifying to learn from the Report of
the Superintendent, that the percentage of re-
coveries, during the past year, both on adrnis-
siOns and discharges, has been considerably in
excess Of the average annual result, and that the
percentage of deaths falls materially below the
average AS the present provisions for the ac-
commodation and proper medical treatment
of the insane in this State are inadequate, the
Legislature should not hesitate to make the
quisite additional provisions.
It is important that insane persons should be
sent to the Asylum for the insane soon as it is
ascertaned that such is their condition, for the
statistics of insanity exhibit the fact that, whilst
nine out of ten are cured who are sent to the
Asylum early after the malady is exhibited but
only one out of ten are cured who are not sent
till after the malady has existed for two years.
This is well established fact which is worth
a ship-load of argument, and should determine
the Legislature in the interest of humanity, to
make all requisite provisions for the early treat
ment Of such patients in the Insane Asylum.
There were in the Asylum at this place, at the
commencement of the year, 32E insane persons
male l76, female I48; subsequently admitted So
male s. female %; the total number cared for
during the year was 3S3-mae 2l2, female III,
and the number remaining Sept. 30th, 1870, was
