The purchase of the county insane
hospital at Hare's Corner by the State to
be conducted as State institution will
be regarded as one of the best acts OF the
present Legislature. Under the provi-
sions Of the act the State pays SIS, 0no for
the building and few acres Of land sur.
rounding tho same. The price paid
is about 20 per cent of the actual value Of
the property. So New Castle county
contributes very literally to the States
new institution, beside paying probably
three-fonrths Of the money to the States
treasary, ont OF which the purchase
money comes. The proper care and
treatment OF the insane necessitated the
establishment OF an institution ny the
State, where more comprehensive and
scientific ministrations may be extended
the un.ortunatss, The bill passed the
Senate upon the merits it presented, and
politics did rot enter into its con-
sideration. Nov let politics be divorced
absolutely from the management OF the
hospital and Delaware will have q model
institution. The character OF the men
who will administer the aifai OF the
new asylum give assurance that the trast
will be we'll discharged. Lewis
