with suicidal tendencies, than there used
to be. In respect to American asylums,
he says that 60 or 20 per cent of the
patients are of foreign birth, and that
there is considerably less insanity among
the negroes of the south, now that they
are free, than there was when they were
slaves. He urges that there should be a
more frequent and thorough inspection
of insane asylums by outside and disin-
terested committees, as the reports of
regular officials are rose colOred, and not
reliable. There is no doubt great abuses
exist in the conduct of these institutions,
and the only means of correcting them is
through vigorous and unbiased inspcc
ton. That sort of inspection should be
provided and maintained.
