Annexation of ITtRh.

Senate inquire into the feasibility OF the

respects IL considered that the union would be Of
great advantage 10 Nevada Our State would be 4

Of the finest territory in the United States The
mittee dwelt At length upon the economy and nSs
which had been adopted by Utah Territory. that had
enabled its people carry their government with
out the mourning Of Territorial debt; and upon
the moral condition Of its people In the walks life
generally that in lessons Of legislative and Official
economy. temperance and morality, the annexation
would prove great acquisition TO Nevada. On the
question of olygamy. opinion expressed adj
yersely TO the scheme Of annexation. the chances
would probably prove that instead of being
able to kill GU, and abSSrb pos EasJ, Nevada itself
would become absorbed. 1t asserted that al
though the annexation would alone depend upon the
will and pleasure Of Congress still the opinion pre-
vailed that Utah had desire for the alliance and IL
against the spirit and genius of free institu-
tons TO force annexation upon any Territory contrary
TO its expressed will interfere internal poll

Effected.

The InHne.

The committee appointed by the Senate to
visit the Insane Hospital at Stockton, Cali
fornia, With instructions to inquire into the
condition of the insane under treatment there
from tins State, rendered its report on Mon
day Last. The committee was received by the
Directors of the Insane Asylum Of California
in a very courteous manner, and learned from
them all the information sought, with mani
festations on their part for securing 10 Nevada
the most satisfactory arrangements for the fu-
ture maintenance of its insane. The commit
tee found confined in the Asylum over ], 100
patients and the institution crowded to its ut
most limits, and therefore was satisfied OF
the necessity which impels the Directors to
decline longer to accommodate the insane OF
Nevada, as it renders them unable to do justice
to the patients of their own State. 1t was
found impossible to perfect any arrangements
by which the insane of this State could longer
be received and cared for at that institution.
DR.. Clark, first assistant physician at that in
stituion, however, has a commodious build
ing, with ground ample and suitably arranged,
and would be able to accommodate the in
sane Of Nevada for some years to come, and
proposed to the committee to contract with
the State of Nevada to keep the insane of our
State for four years, at the, rate of $50 per
quarter for each patient. The sum demanded
includes all expenses from the time of admis-
sion until discharged, the expenses to be paid
promptly in gold coin at the close of each
quarter. This is $40 quarter more for each
patient than is now paid; but after thorough
consideration of this very important matter, it
is thought Nevada would do well to accept
of the terms proposed, both as regards econo-
my to the State and humanity to the patients.
The report was received by the Senate, and
the committee instructed to introduce bill
authorizing the Secretary of State to contract
with DR.. Clark, of Stockton. for the care OF
the insane patients of Nevada. The commit,
tee has since introduced the bill, and it passed
the Senate.

created. to be known rs Funding Commission
ers, and bonds are to be prepared equal to

gether with all the Indebtedness that shall

ton of 500, $500 and $500 each, and bear
ing interest at the rate of six per cent. per an

UNITED STATES LAND OFFICE AT ELEo.-It
is q well-known fact that nearly all the Gov
eminent lands sold in this State are on the
line of the Central Pacific railroad, while the
Land Office is located nearly $50 miles from
the railroad. at Austin. Thither claimants
must go to perfect their titles, at an expense
of not less than 800. If the claimant re-
quires witnesses to substantiate his claim, the
expense is double that amount. Justice to tho
settler demands greater facilities for obtaining
titles to his land. The sales of land, IL the
Office was conveniently located. would be
greatly increased, as can be clearly shown by
reference to Land Districts in other States
We call the particular attention Of our delo-
