Suitable for a state Institution.

The agitation for new insane asylum

general government for the Naval Hos
pital on the Naval Academy farm, ad-
Joining Annapolis. for some public pur
pose. The building occupies an emil
nence overlooking Annapolis and the
harbor. 1t was built by Admiral Porter
at the close of the war, when there was
a great number of seamen But with
navy of the present size there is no use
for it, and it has been abandoned 1t is
a beautiful building, constructed in the
shape of an anchor. A keeper occupies
IT, but it is fast going to ruin. The glass
is out of the windows, and the building
being unprotected from the weather,
will soon fall into decay. 1t would be
a splendid building for some State insti
tuition, and as the general government
has no use for it, it is likely that it would
be willingly given TO the State to be used
for some purpose which would not be
unpleasant to the Naval Academy, which
is very close to it.
