Ghs INSANE Asylum.
Lafayette Advertiser.


Recent Investigations show that the
State Insane Asylum, at jackson, is in
adequate for proper tregtment and pro-
lection Of its too numerous unfortunate
inmates. It appears that q wretched
state Of affairs exist there at present.
The Baton Rouge Advocate says:
''It is not wei to have FIVE hundred
persous diseased in mind and body col.
lected together rs they arc at the In
sane Asylum. The management Of such
an institution is cumbersome and uu-
satisfactory. They must be divided,
This is true frnm other considerations.
There are thrown together at this in
stitution idiots, incurables, old and
young, black and white (the races are
separate as far as possible) The in
huences upon one another are bad, and
frequently the progress Of those whose
attack ia but temporary is retarded, or
even made impossible. 1t ia conceded
by. all that they must be separated, aud
it is also conceded that moro liberal
and just provision must be made for
their maintenance"
There is no class of our population
which appeals more strongly to our
sympathy and sense of justice than
these poor unfortunates, a majority of
whom are merely driftwood upon the
vast ocean of humanity. We call the
of our representative to this
matter, and trust that he will work to
bring about the much needed reform.
