Mr.. George L. Harrison, Of Philadelphia,
whose long and efficient connection with
tho Board Of Public Charities Of Pennsyl.
vania has given him unusual opportunities
for observation, has now in press royal
octave volume Of twelve hundred pages,
dealing with the important matter Of legis-
lation on ineanity. Mr.. Harrison has
favored tho INTELLIdESCRR with an ad-
nance copy Of his preface, from which We
arc able to form an idea Of the scope and
value Of his work. The book will contain
the insanity laws OF all the States and Ter.
rltories Of this country and Of other civil.
lied lands, presented for the purpose
OF criticism and comparison, together
with such facts and recommendations as
will, in the authors opinion, contribute to
the better information Of the public, and
by that means to much needed remedial
legislation. ~ y, IT,. IT, +!
That ia the highest philanthropy which
concerns itself with the most unfortunate
OF Gods creatures-helpless dependents
whose pitiable condition appeals for the
kindllest care and most complete protec.
ton against themselves, against ignorance,
malice and aysrice. Liquidation for this
class ought to recognize that insanity is a
disease, not crime; a misfortune, not a
peryerse determination to live without la.
Dor and do as much harm in the world as
possible. There has been some improve.
ment in legislation; mora We. think in I'D.
ministration; and yet much remains to be
done before tho treatment Of the insane
shall be what it ought to be in highly
civilized society. =, ", j So b ~"
I 1t mus! be recognized in practice as well
as in theory that mental diseases are yari.
Gus and distinct; that what is good treat.
ment for one patient is aggravation for an
other; that Institutions for the insane are
properly hospitals and not prisone; that
something more is required than drugs and
restraint; that physical strength Is not
enough to make a good nurse; that the
diploma Of medical college does not Of
/ itself make a skilled and conscientious
) allenis,; and that the head Of an institu.
ton for the insane, though always voting
at his party's call, might still be incapable
to discharge efficiently his delicate and re.
sponsible duties. Mr.. Harrison'a book may
show something different and worse,i but
from some knowledge Of the subject in
general, and some special observation in
West Virginia, We are Of opinion that poll.
tics and ignorance are chiefly responsible
ios the gravest abuses IN the treatment Of
the insane. II 4. .J$ 4 .pa.6a tiiaas!
Whoever shall quicken the public con.
science to a realizing sense Of It's duty in

Last January they met for the first tune
