Female Physi clans in Insane Asylums


The question of the employment Of female
physicians In Insane asy!ums has been agi-
tsted for the paat two or three years By the
papers In different paris OF hesitate. With
Ia the past few days bill has been intro.
duoed In the Legislature Of Virginia corr.
polling the boards OF the different asyums
to elect female physician member of
their medical staff. Shall the boards elect
woman physician simply because she is q
woman or shall che ba elected for her ex
pert qualifications as phyeicisn2 Would
1t not be time enough 10 pass suoh bill
when 'our won,e1," enter all the medical
colleges of the country, graduate and be-
come praoticing physicians In our Dnide ?
We do not know OF single southern wom-
an who has gone through medlca! college
and become practiciag phyeic!an ia the
State. II this bs true, why then, should tie
poor insane women, those who from the
very nature of their diseases are unable to
act or think for themselves, be placed in
charge Of q female physician simply bs-
cause they themselves ore womeE? Those
who are at all familiar with our asyiums
know that the inmates there Of know very
little, II anything, that goes on around them,
and 1t really makes no difference to them
whether their medical attendant be q man
or a woman. They are entitled. however,
to the best medical attention that can bo
employed, especially that which haa the ex-
perience, training and courage to act when
the neoss 'lty ARISES. We DO not wish to be
understood as undertaking tho services OF
woman In the asylums. Shs Is employed
In all of our a6Ylums, az al experienced
muse and attendant.
In this capacity her services cannot be supplied
by msn, be he physician or not. Come OF the
asylums have now in training ladies to BIO put in
charge Of the femsle departments IS supervisors,
and every assistance should be rendered thsm in
educating themselves for this work. Whom fe-
mails medical colleges are established and our
women enter them, and go through the medical
course, become practicng PHYSICIANS in oar mid 1t,
then let the bos1ds OF the different asyums elect
such Of them to the medical staff of their asylums
as have proven themselves worthy Of the conf
dence sought to be imposed upon thom; but do
not let them be elected and placed in charge Of
poor ius, ns fem ,lea of the State simply because

ACCORDING to the GAzETTE's Washing
ton correspondence, of yesterdays date, SEN
ator Barbour thinks the Virginia legislature
will psss railroad bill that will be aatisiso'
tory to the railroads as we'll as to the pup
Iio For the good of the State, but especial
~ OF the farmers thereof, 1t is hoped that II
any railroad bill pass, 1t may be of the char
soter referred to, for if OF any other the
farmers will be the chief auGerera, SO the
railroads ara bound to "get even" a stao
at the roads will not only prevent the e1'
tension and construction Of any moro OF
them. but will restrict the facilities they
now afford the farmera for sen1iDs their
produce to mayke'; 10, with decreased prof
its they would be compelled to reduce ex
penses. and thus the tarmsrs, inatead OF pa
ing enabled. as they now are, to rush ths'f
producss to market so as to avail themselves
OF an advance in price, would be foEcsc &c
walt their turn IL consequence OF laok Of
sccommoi at;on, and so lose the advantage
referred to, aud, In addition, run all the risks
incident to delay 10 transportation. Oi one
thing the prcposera OF the la1 referred &c
NAV be euro, and that is that il there 5e any
resultant loss, the railroad companies WILL
