Tlie law intends topruvitle that "nidi lirisenctss shall net be let Ioesj uxm the community, but th.it thev shall be ecurcly confined in a lunatic )lum during the period of their lunacy, lint, though thH is the direction of tlic law, practically the community has iittle Mxurity against tlie speedy return into it of Uiemj nciiuillc-d lunatiC3. After their acquittal they sud denly recover tlieir reason ;and,iu faction at the time of their trial and couMctien they sometimes claim te be of bound mind, and conQne the period of tlieir infinity strictly te the time of tlie roinniKsten of the crime. As tlih however is a somewhat dangerous claim, in i lew of the advisability of arousing tlie Kjmpalliy of the jury for tlie defendant as one still afflicted by the Lord, it is net often undo unless thcre arc ether elements winch are relied upon te ecure the juiv 's sj mpatln , the defence of Insanilv being a mere ban dage for the cje of the law. After the prisoner's acquittal is tcciireil the commitment te the insane asylum fol fel lows; and in a brief icr-en the attorneys ceme forward witli at; apidicatien for relcase founded upon tlie allidauls of heepcrsand doctors that the prisoner n sane. The proof suffices te show the fact vard tlie court discharges the quondam "lunatic fiem confinement. New certainly, semewhcic in the ceiirbc of this proceeding a great outrage lusbceii committed and a great h.irin done te the community. It m.tj hau been done when the jury acqmttf d the accused as insane when the act was done. IJut we de net eukcIvcs think that the error i3 often com mitted licie. AVe are ready te bchc c that the great majority of these whom a jurj has acquitted as inraiie weie i wily se m fcome degree at least w hen tliejpt'ri'CtrntCiri their crime ; and at any rate the Jurv is likely te have been right in leaning te the side of mercy, since the law ilselt com mands that tlie benefit of a doubt shall be given te the prisoner at the bar. It is well that this should he done ; ami it will de society no harm te acquit en the gieuud of Insanity if the confinement for iiisauit) is made as sure and secure as fm ciiiue. Society needs lebcicsellicientl prelected against insane its against sane violence; and the wrong is done te it when the m Eaiip piiseneris tinned loes upon it, as rcsteied te sanity, before his restoration has been undeniably demonstrated In the lapstfef jears. Atteinej General Cassulv opposed the release of Emm i Uickcl liv an elder of the ceutt. and took the isitien, that her relcase should come enl after a trial by juty of the question of her saiutv. In this position lie sustained Distuct At torney Graham.

The legislature should censldei this mattei at the coming session, and we suggest th.it it should enact that even one a quitted of crime en the gieuud el iusiiutv shall be securely confined fei a period of net lejs than five jears; and that the shall net be released from such confinement sae upon its being clearly proved te a jur that they have shown no symptomset insan ity during five jeu-j preceding The effect of a certain confinement fei five j care may be expected le take largely from the seductiveness of instnity as a prison er plea. i LoeLIug After the fcehoel t'hlhlren.
