WESTERN LUNATIC AsYLUM.-Dr. Z. L.
Stribling has handed US a copy of the report of
the Board of Directors and Medical Superin-
tendent OF the W. L. Asylum of Virginia, for
the fiscal year 1S71-'72, from which we CLEAN
the following interesting facts:
The hospital accommodations are inadequate
to accommodate the insane citizens of the Com
monwealth. The Asylum is almost entirely
occupied by patients classed as incurables. The
Superintendent asks-"what is to be the fate
of those in Virginia whose minds shall have
recently become disordered. and of whom ex-
perience proves that at least Is per cent. would
be cured if speedily provided with suitable hos
pital appliances
The estimate of the Superintendent for an
nual support asked for from the State, is the
sum of ST., 200, and the Board of Directors
r. G. Bickle, President-recommend the ap-
preparation of that sum.
In regard to the attempts made to force the
Valley Railroad through the Asylum grounds,
the Board calls special attention Of the Legisla-
ture, asking them TO prescribe by law the pow
er of the Board Of Directors in regard thereto,
that no uncertainty may exist as to the nature,
and extent of its power and authority"
There we're in the Asylum, at the commence
ment of the year, 342 patients-1SS males, and
l54 females; admitted during the year, 4S-26
males, and % females. Total, within the year,
390-214 males, and 176 females Discharged
OR died, 50-males %, females22. Remaining
at close of year, 340-males 1856, females 154.
During the past year there were 4S patients
admitted, so discharged, and 80 recovered
Recovered, of all cases discharged during the
year, "a per cent. Table 5, showing the pros
pect of recovery of patients remaining in the
Asylum at close of the year, exhibits the mel
ancholy fact that there were favorable fol-
cure, 26 doubtful, and 300 decidedly unfa-
vorable for cure. The per cent of deaths to
total number treated was $50. During the
year, there were % applications, 4S admitted,
and l79. rejected, for want of room.
The financial report is a most satisfactory one,
and shows that the Asylum is in healthy f.
nancial condition: Total amount on hand and
received during the year, $75, S445S. Amount
expended, SOS, 960.27. Balance in Treasury,
$6,SS4 3S.
The Asylum continues to be highly favored.
in retaining the services Of DR.. Hamilton, ply.
stefan in female department; Samuel A. Hous.
hour, Steward and Mrs. Tinsley, Matron,
each of whom have served long and acceptably.
And above all, this institution is blessed by hav-
ing the faithful, vigilant and kind DR.. T. T.
Stribling as its Superintendent.
Since the last report, DR.. T. A. Berkeley,
assistant in male Department. has been re.
moved by death, and the vacancy was filed by
the appointment of DR.. Ed. G. Fisher whose
experience IN connection With asylums, renders
him most valuable assistant.
