Vermont Insane Asylum.

! l
of this institution show that great improve
ments have been made in the last two
years Commissioner Boynton's report
shows he has kept close watch, and his
verdict is that the Asylum is worthy the
confidence of the people of the State. He
recommends some changes in the method
of State supervision and also in the law
relating to the removal of patients by their
friends. He also shows the necessity for
an increase in the amount appropriated by
| the State for the insane poor. and change
from the pro ratu distribution plan to a
per- capita allowance. He strongly endorses
Superintendent Draper.
The reports of the trustees and superin-
tendent show that Aug l, 1872 there were
49j patients, and Aug. l, 1874, Al, a
decrease in two years Of "a. There have
been POI admitted during the two years,
and 22S discharged; of the latter 4S were
discharged recovered 81 improved; 81

Since 1897 there have been admitted
1852 patients, of whom 44S1 have been
discharged. OF those discharged, 2122
were sent away recovered; COZ improved
| JJ4 without change, and 1113 died.
OF the POI admitted in the last two years
| 100 were males and 50 females. OF these
90 were committed by friends 76 by over
Seers of the poor and 80 by courts OF
magistrates. OF the 204 cases, 60 are
supposed to have arisen from hereditary

temperance; u from masturbation; IA
from female diseases; 6 from sexual eX-
cess: 9 from domestic trouble; from
