ALMSHOUSE AND ASYLUM.
The Peer Directors In State Meeting.
At a meeting of the peer directors of
the ceuntie:; of Pennsylvania, in state con
vention at Harrisburg yesterday, Lancas
ter was represented by B. F. Cox, superin
tendent of the almshouse and hospital,
and Gee. Spurrier, treasurer of the beard.
There was a very large meeting. Sir. Cox
was one of the vice presidents of the con
vention. Various questions of public in
terest were discussed, the outcome of which
was the adoption of the following :
Resolved, That it is against public policy
te admit able-bodied persons as inmates of
a poerhousc.
Resolved. That the almshouse receive all
cases applying for admission, for lying-in
purposes, and that the fathers of the chil
dren be prosecuted te the full extent of the
law.
Jlesulced, That the custody of the insane,
(the curable as well as the incurable,)
should be taken, with the qualifications
hereafter mentioned, absolutely out of the
hands of the poerhousc of the state, and
of township overseers ; that even the best
county asylums afford insufficient saie
guaids for this class, and that a present
fair standard of care cannot be relied en in
view of the changes in economy and su
pervision liable te eceur under diflcrcnt
administration.
Resolved, That se long as the previsions
by the state looking te this end, through a
per capita allowance and hospital accom
modations, continue te be insufficient as
an economical inducement, the Jaw be
comes positively inoperative.
Resulted, That in view of the peculiar
claims of this class for protection at tnc
hands of the state, the arrangements for
which are reorganized se liberally in the
eastern and western and some of the ether
states, by the entire assumption of the
care and suppett of the insane, irrespective
of condition as in Ohie: therefore. ,
Ilcselccd, That measures in this direc
tion should be taken promptly, as the sev
eral counties arc contemplating the support
of their insane at home, ami arc with
drawing their cases from the state hospitals
into asylums that are being erected in con
nection with the poerhouscs, by which
the value of the curative advantages of
our sta e hospitals will, in great part, be
lest.
Rcsvhcd, That the discrimination in
favor of the acute class being sent te the
hospitals cannot be relied en should the
law limit their benefits te this class, al
though inoperative in its terms. But if
imperative in requiring that all in poor peor poer
houscs, curable or incurable, recent or
chronic, shall be removed te the state bos bes
pitals, it would net preclude the retention
of the poeihoiiM-o of that class of the
c'lrenie insane who aie apablc of self care
and of rendering assistance in household
and out-deer work. Careful investigation
shows that quite a number of these patient
may be made as comfet table in geed poor peer
houses and be as well pievided for at the
same time and at less expense, as in the
lunatic hospital-'.
Resolved, That we recommend the pas
sage of an act by the Legislature of the
commonwealth, prohibiting the commit
ment of children between two and sixteen
years of age te any jail or peer house, and
make tiie violation efthcactamisdcmcau
or punishable with'pcnalties.
Accident te u Markctmau.
Bcfeic daybreak this morning Mr.
Henry F. Trout, while driving en
the Harrisburg turnpike northwest
of this city, met ith an accident which
might have proved very serious, but fortu
nately did net. He was en his way te
maiket with a lead of produce and had hi.s
little daughter with him. Coming te a
rough place in the pike he attempted te
drive down te the summer re.id. As it was
dark, he could net see that the pike at this
point was several feet higher than the
Miiuiiier read, and supposing it te be
only of the usual grade, lie drove
ee'r the embankment, upsetting the
wagon. His heise, a spiiitcd one, dashed
madly forward through the darkness, but
luckily the belt that couples the front tun
ning gear te the ether pat t of the vehicle
fclf out, anil the horse ran away with the
.shafts and fieut wheels only, leaving Mr.
Tieut and his daughter lying unhurt in
the ether pait of the chicle. The hoi se
was caught, and after daybreak Mr. Trout
fixed up his wagon, gathered up his mar
keting and came en te Lancaster.
Bitten by a Deg.
Yesterday afternoon about . o'clock a
little boy aged about eight years, a son of
Mr. 15. Lcwin. of Eliz.ibcthtewn, was
badly bitten in thu face by a small deg
belonging te Charles Kuapp, grocer, Neith
Queen stieci. -Mr. Lcwin had brought his
family te Lancaster te participate in the
observances of the Hebrew JTcv Year.
While walking Xeith Queen street
Master Lewin saw a little daughter of Mr.
Kuapp placing with her pet deg en Majer
Hewell's fieut steps He stepped te leek
at or take part in the sport, and
playfully stiuek or struck at the
girl. Instantly the deg sprang at him,sink
ing his teeth into the little boy's
cheek, and lacerating it severely. Mr.
Lcwin sucked the wound and had it cau
terized by Dr. Albright. There is no fear
cut ci tained that it will result seriously. At
the request of Mr. Lewin ami some etheis.
Mr. Kuapp had the deg shot. It was a
pet and had been for years the companion
of the little girl with whom it was playing
at the time it bit the little boy, and would
allow no one te lay a hand en its little
mistress.
A Weil. ling at Lititz.
Miss Alice, daughter of Peter S. Reist.
or Lititz, was married yesterday te Mr.
lleb't X.Welle. The maniagc took place in
the Moravian chinch there and the services

tor of the church, in accordance with the
Moravian forms. The attendance was
large and the party quite brilliant, there
maniagc the bride and groom received
their friends at the residence of the bride's
parents, where they were very handsomely
entertained. The bridal party left Lititz
in tin afternoon train for a tour te the
White Mountains.

yield of 100 bushels of Peerless potatoes
from encthiid of an acre of ground.

Things arc new reversed at the Reading
& Columbia coal chutes. A couple of
days age a fieet of beats were anchored at
the wharf awaiting leads. New the bins
arc filled with coal and awaiting the arri
val of the canal beats. The reason for
this is that a break occurred very recently
in the tide water canal near the feet of the
"live mile level." Te remedy this the
water was ltt out of the canal, hence the
detention te the beats. When we were at
