This was substantially the evidence and
the history of the defence at the arbitration.
'rho case closed on the evening of the 1-ith
inst., after taking testimony for two whole
days. The time fixed fur the argument is
Wednesday, January 27 th„ltile, at 2. o'clock,
P. M., when it might lie interesting to be
present. The taxpayers of 1 du:aster con 11-
,ty are under obligations to the defendants
ha this suit, for venturing to investigate
and lay bare a case so full of indications of
.fraud and deception in the important mat
ter of bridge-building in the county. Un
der such a system everybody is excluded
from fair and honorable competition with
the favorite contractor. If the witnesses
who testified before the arbitrators told the
both, somebody made a clean profit of sev
oral thousand dollars by the change in the
specification, which was kept secret from
.every ono yxcopt McMollen and the 'oni-
Mission ors.
The City vx. the Country Botcher*.
A few days since Judge Hayes delivered
:the opinion of the court in the suit of Chris
tian llomp vs. henry Krick, for viola-
Lion of the city ordinance of 1835, under
which butchers could only occupy stands,in
the Market 1l oust' or on the southwest all
stle of Centre Square. The suit was brought
before Alderman Evans, by whom judg
ment was given in favor of the plaintiff.
Dickey anti IL Franklin ft ir the plaintiff;
Reynolds for defendant. The record was
removed by certiorari to the Court of 'ten- ,
mon Pleas, and the decision of the .1 make
wail reversed. The 3d section of the ordi
mined of April 7th, 183/1, is as follows:
"'That no person or persons shall he per
mitted, without having a stall in the Market
Ilou se, or lest preen ring a lieense under ,
the previsions of the second section of this
ordinance, to sell or scud any kind of meat
by less than the quarter, under a penalty
nut exceeding live dollars, to be recovered
before the Mayor or any of the Aldermen
of the city, as debts of the like mitount are
by law reeoverable; one moiety whereof
shall go to the person suing the same, :nut
the other moiety to be paid into the city
treasury fit the use of the city."
The second section is in these words: i
That the Mayor be and he is hereby au
thorized, tin the payment of three dollars,
from each and every applicant, to license
all such butchers as cannot obtain stalls in
the Market House, to place temporary
stands or stalls, and to sell their meat along
the pavement of the south west corner of
the CoUrt House square, between West
King and South Queen streets, under and
subject to the regulation of the ordinance
entitled "An ordinance providing for the
appointment of a clerk of the Market, pre
scribing his duties, and regulating the milt:-
kets iu the city of Lancaster."
Judge Hayes in his opinion says:
The limits of the market, which by the
ordinance of it•tols•r 21, 1018, Were the Mar-
ket House, including the public sq uarc im
tnediatelv mirth thereof, West K fag street
as far as 'Prince street, anti the whole of
Centre Square, were further extended by
the ordinance of 188• ember 20th, of the ;
same year, one, square from the Court ,
House in each of the four main. treets, illld
rules fur their proper regulation adopted,
and penalties for the violation of the rules
prescribed.
Instead of the few butcher stalls, abate
rented and licensed to years ago, there are I
now hundreds of stalls, many of thorn in
the ranges of the new market buildings,
anti many noire along the pavements with-
in the extended limits, all regularly mun
bored, anti either let to the highest bidder
at public auction on the first Wednesday
of April, or if sac n it, let by the Market
Committee for the remainder of the term
ending with the market year.
Tho first idea suggested by the review of
this case, is the palpable inadequacy of the
sections of the ordinance of 1835, for the
violation of which this suit is brought, to
meet the exigencies of the present market,
anti of the you pleat' this community ; being
about as well adapted bt that purpose, as
the first pair of shoes provided for an infnt,
would be to cover the feet of the grown up ;
man. The seennd observation that occurs,
is, that this suit Is brought in the interest of
the city butchers; and if it could be sustain
ed, there is not a butcher in the city that
would not lie liable to be sued and con
demned in like manner ;
for which of them
sells under a Mayor's license, or In the
Market House designated in these sections?
I doubt whether any Mayor's license has
been granted these twenty yearn; the late
Mayor informs me, that hr never issued a
market lieense.
Since the ordinance of 1835, new market
houses, so called, have been erected, and
the whole arrangement and economy of the
markets have been changed. The butchers
no longer occupy the old market house, or
the spare ill the south-west corner of cen
tre Square. Instead of the 15 or 20 stalls
routed by Mayor's license, in those places,
there are noW 470 shills annually rented out
by public auction, at iwittes ranging from
85 to $6O each, under the provisions of the
ordinanee of March 20, 1806 ; and to each
ocenpant or renter, on payment of the price
for his stall to the city treasurer is given a
treasurer's receipt for the sum paid, speci
fying that it is for one rear's rent of Market
stall of No. ending April Ist,
which is the license certificate fullushed to
each lessee, ill cue and precisely the same
form. No butcher's license is granted, and
no peculiar privileges are conceded by the
ordinance to any class of renters. The re.
eeipt presented to the Alderman at the hear
ing before him, was one of this tieseri ption :
it was the defendant's license for his stall,
and was the same in form and effect, as that
by which the plaintiff, who is ti city butch
er, is entitled to the privileges of his stall,
It was a complete defence to the suit, if the
suit had any foundation; but it had
The sections quoted of the ordinance of
1035 are inapplicable to the present:mar
ket ; first, from their limitation ill extent ;
secondly, because they provided for no
licenses except to butchers; thirdly, ,
be
cause they are obviously inadequate to
regulate the present market ; the 2•acient
ordinanees embrace the whole market and
the new regulations extend to and include
the original limits of the market, and were
intended to supply anti supersede the pro
visions of the 2nd and :Irti sections of the
ordinance of 1035.
IF 4 e
The growth and extension of the market
business required a new sYsibhi of regula
tions, and councils l o ne in several ordi
nances, and especially -in- that of 1866,
supplied such, a system, by which the
public convenience has-been ptomotedand
a considerable revenue has, accrued-to the
City Treasurer, not by the Mayor as in
1835 ; they are guaranteed to all *to Attend
the market for the sale of provisiong and
produce, mild without special privileges to
any; and tha'Market Committee seem to be
intrusted with the resposibility of-causing
,
suits to be institutedfor the violation of the
ordinances relative to the markets; by
directing the Treasurer, whenever they
may deem it expedient to prosecute for
, such violation.

ful and competent men can as readily be
found as those of another class, and if the
appOliitment of the Inspectors was given
to our Court, the. prison, would no. longer
present itself as a mere political machine to
ho managed for private thrift.
11,7; our prison rules and regulations it is
directed that each convict 'shall be fed as
follows : One pound of rye or wheat bread
daily; one pint of coffee in themorning ;
-halt ' p pound of beef made into - soup and
four potatoes at noon; 11111.4 h in the eve
ning, and half a gallon of molasses per
mouth; for which the Keeper recelves2.s; 28
and :SO cents per head daily, according to the
whole number in the priaon at anyone time.
Ai, v housekeeper can make the •palCuirition
and . find thatls cents a head or less offers a
sufficient mmpensation. Not ten years ago
the rations flst. but 18 cents, and those
who know do assert that the If eeper
made several thousand dollars a year,
and there are those who now will
undertake to furnish such rations at 15 @,
16 eta. At present rate's, the Keeper must
accumulate money on his own account
very rapidly, not less than $2O a day clear
of all expense. From 1 December 1868 to
30 November, LSOff, inclusive, ho fed 46,141
days at a emit of $13,217 95 to the county.
His rates being :SO eta, a day for the four
first months, 2.4 ets, for the next 7 months,
and i 5 eta. for the lust month,. affording
him an average of 28 eta. per day, or nearly
twice as much as the rations cost. At an
average profit of 14 ets. he Would net

house rent free, garden, and other privi
legeS, would atlord a compensation fur in
excess of what it should be, especially as it
Is direct from the pockets of his' fellow-citi
zens, and is double the salaries of our
Judges and $2,500 more then that of the
I tovernor.
In connexion with this, we cannot avoid
noticing the superservieeable traffic in
vagrants daily sent to prison and enter
tained at the expense of the county, They
are arrested and discharged, rearrested and
committed on the same clay, and by some
revolving or rotary process known to the
law, are rearrested, recommitted and re
discharged, "both early and often,: during
the winter, making the prison a Lniversal
Hotel for the accommodation of all who
through idleness or crime commend them
selves to some kind-hearted official, who,
through love of the Nee-hill, generously
sends them back as often as they come,
honestly charging the county fifty rents
for commitment and thirty cents for arrest
in each case. As the number is legion
with hopes of sun increase, the expense is
considerable and should be abated. The
inmates of 1869 being one-third more than
those of 1808 and increasing the number of
days for nhions from 35,085 to 46,141.
The Auditors suggested' last year as a
means of economy, and the best preventive
of favoritism, that the printing., bridge
building, and other important work should
be given to the lowest bidder on public no
tice, as is most common with the best man
aged corporations, but that suggestion was
disregarded by our Commissioners who
prefer to travel in the old ruts. The print
ing, book and job work, are given out with
out any evidence of bids having been invi
ted, consequently we now can realize no
slicing or reduction of price. So with the
painting of the Court House, which was let
out at $5.75 a day, the county to erect a sea&
fiild. Some of the best workmen of respon
sibility have assured the Auditors, that if
notice had been given, they would gladly
have undertaken it ats2.so per day without
a scaffold, by which there might have been
a saying of irons $l,OOO to $1,500. This is
deemed undeniable, from the fact, that the
very mechanic who obtaihed the contract,
had previously worked at the Poor House
for $2.25 a day, and others had worked there
for & a day and less. The work of replacing
and repairing the bridges at Hunseckers,
Eden and Point-town, was contracted for
privately, without notice, at $.5 a day for the
contractor, and $3 a day for his lianas, while
others as competent and responsible, have
stated they could and would have under
taken it for less. This is a very different
policy from that pursued at the Poor House
where a bridge across the Conestoga, 249
feet long, 1:t feet wide, and high, was
built at a cost 0f12,487.50, of which $1,370,
were expended for steno and masonry. It
is a model as to cost and construction,
strength and durability, in contrast with
some of the bridges built at the county ex
pense; but it was (10110 under the inspec
tion of the Directors a n d their officers, who
advertised for proposals, and consulted the,
interests of the taxpayers by contracting
with the lowest and test bidders. It is,
therefore, especially recommended that in
future for all repairing as well as building of
bridges and other important works, propo
sots be invited, and contracts made accord
ing to the suggestions in the Auditors re
port cif last year.
They deem it also important, that when
proposals for work on specifications are in
-1 riled, those specifications should be re
corded in a book especially appropriated
for that purpose, before the bids shall be
opened or the contract made, mid this
should be provided for by act of Assembly.
The cost of the improvidence in repairhig
rail building, etc., might readily be ascer
tained and reduced to figures, lint it would
be of no avail. The law attaches 110 re
sponsibility to an Agent or officer of the
County honest/, exercising discretionary
powers in making contracts, and although
they may be convinced of an extravagant
expenditure of the public funds, the Audi
tors have no power to charge the Commis
sioners, and can only refer to it4suggesting
the necessity of reform by legislative enact
ment. It is of late occurrence, that an effort
was made to make them personally liable
far at over-allowance in the erection of the
Binkley Bridge ; but the Court dismissed
the rule, when the Commissioners in their
happy control of the County funds, gener
ously rewarded their three counsel with
$lOO each,
and those familiar with that in
tellectual net-work the law, hare declared
that !well was their right to do.
The \ uditors from their examinations
into the affairs of the County as presented
to them, are fully of the belief, that there is
more time spent by the Commissioners in
their office,than is absolutely necessary. 'fi)
minutes will snow, that from two, to three
or four days a week aro charged by each
Commissioner, when often the business
transacted was limited to the granting ofone,
two or three orders, and occasionally when
a full Board has assembled the Clerk has
made the significant entry, " there being,
no business , adjourned !" The most im
portant time for office duties may he the
first week of a regular term of t`ourt, or
while they arc holding Appeals, but this
frequent visiting the office and returning
home twice or three times a week, is cer
tainly not necessary. One or two days
attendance in a week would for the most
part beample. If they would publicly an
nounce, and snake it generally known, that
they, will attend their oilico r on the Mon
day =4 .Tuesday. of each week, and no
other, as was the custom in former times,
the people would regulate themselves ac
cordingly.
~Tho, pay and mileage of the
present hoard fdr a tingle day Is $15.40 . , and
does not well bear repeating, unless the
public business actually requires it. The
office is not a post to be used merely for
daily pay and mileage, and a pleasant ride
to and from Lancaster at a cost of $3 a day
and ten cents a mile.
The Auditors believe, that the several ac
counts which they are required to settle
and adjust, should be prepared and made
up to the 31st of 'Obeembet, inehisivd, of
each year, and submitted to the Commis
sioners and other Boards for examination ;
then to be filed in the 'Prothonotary's Office,
advertised as open for inspection Mall tax
payers for thirty days, after which to be re
ferred to the Auditors for final settlement;
that all interested may have an opportunity
of examining and filing exceptions thereto
if necessary' as heirs and creditors may do
to an Administration account. At present,
no one sees or knows any thing about either
account until.they. are finally acted on by
the Audltots and published, when it is too
late for exeoptilin of any kind.

Illstorielsl Sketch of the Prembyterion
The 'early history of Presbyterianism in
Lancaster is somewhat obscure and unde
fined. From a sermon by the Rev. Walter
Powell, preached some years age, it ap
pears that the first church Wta_ll)Unded in
1763, and numbered among its members
Judge Ye:dee:Edward Shippen, William
White, Henry I.lelm, anti. other AlksOn
•
guished men.
Rey. John Woodhull was the first iiiitor
\ k
of :hem - we 14 re record. ,Ho was called
in 1700, and eft, 'ed jointly with the Lan
caster and Lea - congregations, the ter
mer of which :, ing no meeting house of
their own, wa ' l i'pped in the old Court
House in Centre Square, which was de
stroyed by tire in 1784. Prior to its de
struction, however, the Presbyterians had
in 1770. by leave of Synod, placed them
selves under the Now Castle Presbytery,
and erected a log church tor their use, on
the lot of ground in the rear of their pres
ent church edifice. Mr. Woodhull remain
ed as their pastor for about ten years.
Rev. Nathaniel W. Sample, in 1780, re
ceived a joint call from the three Presby
terian Churches of Leacuck, Lancaster and
Middle Detorara, which he accepted, and
was ordained and installed the following
year. He continued as pastor for the un
usually long period of 40 'years, dividing
his ministrations about equally between
the three congregations. During Rev. Mr.
Sample's ministry the church rapidly in
creased in numbers. In 1804 it was regu
larly incorporated, and in 1820, the building
was enlarged and iiiiiiidYed. Mr. Sample
was a large, corpulent man, with a strong
voice, and generally preached without
notes. He was argumentative and could
quote scripture with great fluency. He was
considered nu able Theologian in his day.
After leaving the charge of Lancaster, in
1821, lie preached sonic years within the
New Castle Presbytery, and then retired
from regular service and located in Stras
burg, Lancaster county, where he died at a
good old age. Dr. Nathaniel Sample, M. 11.,
bite of Paradise township, was Insison.
Rev. Wim Aslunead succeeded . ..lir. Sam
ple, in 1821. At that time the Church had
become saitfielently powerhil to engage the
entire services of a preacher andsufficicnt
ly wealthy to pay him the very liberal sal
ary of $lOOO per year. Mr. Ashmead was
quite young when he was called to Lana as-'
ter. lie was of a feeble constitution—small
in stature, fair complexion and very youth
ful in appearance; but a fervent, zealous
Christian, and an excellent writer. Since
his death a volume of his sermons has been
published, and are of superior merit. Ile
was universally beloved by all who knew
him. His ministry here though brief, An
successful, and the church was greatly
strengthened during his pastorate. Buthis
health failing, it was found that that fell
disease, consumption, had taken hold of
him. In hopes of being benefited by a
noire genial climate, he resigned his charge
here in April, 18'1.9, and was called to the
Second Presbyterian Church of Charleston,
South Carolina, where he was installed May
17, 1829. He then returned :North to take
his family, when he took serion. ill and
died in Philadelphia the same yEar, in the
32d year of his age.
Rev. Richard W. Dickinson was in
stalled ag'Sir. Asluneauccessor in Oc
tober, 1829. He wite'v. man of scholarly
attainments and fine address. Ills dis
courses were practical, pungent and perfect
in style and composition. , The most learned
could learn of t u rn, and during his ministry
many gentlemen of the learned professions
were his hearers. He married a lady of this
city, and after a diligent ministry of nearly
four years, resigned his charge and re
moved to New York city, where he now
resides. He is still laboring in the minis
try whenever opportunity offers, and labors
with his pen assiduously, being the author
of a number of religious works. "Responses
frtim the Sacred ()melee" mid "Scenes from
Sacred History" are some of the fruits of
his pen, and are held in high estinfation
with the Christian church..generally. Ile
has hal conferred upon him the degree of
Doctor of Divinity.
Rev. John S. Marshall Davie was the
next pastor, being installed early in 1534,
and remaining in charge about six years.
Mr. Davie was a fluent speaker, but not
argumentative. As a pastor he was
very deligent and self-sacrificing. He
visited his flock, and knew them all inti
mately. Mr. D. was a little over medium
height,withdark complexion and dark hair.
Daring his pastorate, viz., in 1838, the rup
ture in the Presbyterian Church occurred,
he espoused the cause and doctrines of the
original Presbyterian Church, the side
commonly called the old school. The
church at Lancaster remained in connec ,
tion with the old school so long as the
division lasted. Mr. D. left his charge in
Lancaster in the spring of 1840 and removed
to middle New York, where he preached
until about 1856, when he located in or near
Brooklyn city, where he died in 1850.
Rev. John 'McNair, succeeded Mr Davie
in 1841. He was an able preacher—studied
his sermons and delivered them without
putting pen to paper. His appearance in
the street and in the pulpit was awkward,
owing to the fact that he was near-sighted.
We recollect of seeing him on North Queen
street one night, stepping very carefully
over the shadows of the awning posts that
were thrown by the rays of a summer moon
on the pavement! In the spring of 1549,
Prof. 0. S. Fowler, the phrenologist, visited !
Lancaster and delivered a course of lectures
which were largely att elided by our citizens. !
He did not endeavor to conceal his con- I
tempt for the clergy, and among other sub
jects,
delivered a lecture on the " Religion
of Phrenology," which many good Chris
tians
thought little better than infidelity.
Fowler had repeatedly challenged any of
the clergy to meet him in debate; and at
length Mr. MeNair accepted the challenge.
The debate took place in the old Court
House in Centre Square on the 12. th of
March, t 849, and so completely did Mr. Mc-
Nair use up the learned Professor that he
quietly left town the next day. Mr. McNair
was heartily congratulated! by his ninny
friends on his signal victory. In 1850 the
old church edifice was torn down, and by
May, - 1851, the - new one was'completed - rind
dedicated, and to Mt. McNair more than
to any other man is the congregation in
debted for. the • large new 43fitirch‘ they
now worship in. Though the lola '
church was not a bad bending,
yet It was too small for a growing congre
gation, and he insisted theta, was the duty of
the congregation to enlarge or build, so that
the room andnumberofpews mould he snch
as to put the annual pew. Rent so low as
to be within the means of the poorestin the
city. His argttrrients CeirVinced his peo
ple and accordingly nroae, the present
building,, , eentaining 140 pews, all with
cushioned seats- and with Rents rang
ing from $4O !down to. *5 per year. At
about the time of the completion of 'the
new church an unhappy diviSion of the
congregation occurred: This division was
not , occasloned by any difference of doc
trine or preference for other ehtich rela
tions, as the seceding pprtion who formed
the Second Presbyterian Church in South
Queen street; was. orgardzed •by and re
mained under the - Donegal Presbytery,

An amusing affair :occurred at the Gap
last Saturday. An milisuallyiarge crowd
of sportsmen had assetriblollo take part in
a fox chase. The fox, hacl..tieetx confined, in
a barrel previous to its being let loose;
when some evil-disposed person stibeti
toted In its stead a large rid house eat. -- The
cat being started in the,woods, thq,eXcharigd
was not discovered by the 'huntsmen at
the time. After waiting the usuallefgth
oftime -for- the dogs - to t, the-Eg
ju dog
fraternity Mbanted their beirshs), expecting
to have a long and exciting chase, (it being
reported that the fox, was might. in Mary
land, ) and after dashing away through_the,
woods for about ono sidle, his Utstablp wad
discovered sittin on the fop of - a large
chestnut tree The
deat giving the men and
hounds a glimpse of its claws and bristles:
The usual process of "gagging the fox"
was dispensed-NS-Ith, and the cat left to find'
its stay back as best. It could. Mr. Henry
Hurst, of Chester county, being the ,lust
man at the tree, received the purse, which,
amounted to something over fifty dollars.
Our Leacock township money hunters'
have been successful in their undertakings
et last. I understand they recovered some .
$6OO under the foundation of an old house
belonging to Adam Diller. The money
was all old Spanish dollars.
PARKE:O3CM ITEMS.—Messrs. Editors
The rent fever in our village has somewhat'
abated, and folks are beginning to look
more satisfied and pleaSant. The property
of Wm. Armstrong, dee'd, which wAs
vertised to be sold on the 18th in this
logo, was sold with all the oppurterianceS'
for $4,000. Miss Mary A. Futhev - ptirchaser.
It was a bargain without doubi. There haS
another building lot been sold since my
last ; Wm. Chirk, purchaser, who intends
erecting a house as soon as possible.
In our village of less than 500 inhabitants
we' have 20 single ladies of questionable
ages, and the same number -of-widows; is
there any other .place can beat it? They
are all in good circumstances, and are an
honor to- the ;village.
Bather an amusing circumstance happen
ed in our village, a short timeago. Awed „
ding was to take place at 3 o'clock in ,ihe"
afternoon, when the happy pair were to
start in the train to see the sights! but, alas
for human calculations, the bridegroom did
not conic to time, and ninny were the con
jectures as to what kept him Yrorii
big his -promise, He arrived, however,
about 0 o'clock, on horseback, in rather a
sad condition, being rather boozy from the .
effects of too much ardent "spirits," im
bibed during the day. His attire was
not of the kind such events are generally
done up in, and he looked rather forlorn,
but after visiting several of the stores, and
procuring a paper collar and cuffs, and
some other articles necessary for the toilet
of a groom, the marriage took place at
about half-past ten o'clockthe squire of
the village performing the eeremony. After
which the Junior "t alithamplan ' Band
played several soul-stirring airs, and quiet
was again restored to the village. n.
LOCAL Irian.—We are indebted to our
Conestoga Centre eorresponpent for the
following items:
The season has been very favorable for
stripping tobacco, and it is now all stripped
in this neighborhood and ready for sale.
There has been some sold already, and at
very fair prices. If the prices keep up to
the present mark, there will ho a very large
breadth planted the coming season.
The hen roost of John Buckwalter, Jr.,
residing near Conestoga Centre, was visited
one night last week by soms parties fend
of foal. They carried oil (or very likely
hauled off) about 40 chickens—a fowl. trick
on Mr. Buckwalter.
At Brenneman's saw-mill, near Safe

IRON ORE IN EDEN 'rwr.—Messrs. _LAB
tors.—Qulte a stir exists in Eclair - township
at present in Iron ore tteeking. , ln the last
month Benjamin B. Myers has leased
ground from Williain and' set
hands to work in shafting for ore Witli en
couraging prospects. Also John Dripps is
engaged in shafting on the farm of Sarah
Williams adjoining the farm of William
Livingston, but with what 'enccruragtnent*
we have not learned.
Daniel B. Eckman has had a shaft sunk
on his property, but so far unpromising of
success, though ore has been formerly
found in the locality; and Sacob XL' . Eck
man has had.several shaftS made on his
property, but we have not learned with
what hope of success.
All these efforts are in the Valley East of
Quarryville. Last summer parties spent
considerable time in shafting on a farm of
Daniel Lofevre near Quarryville with en
eouraging prospects, but whether the mine
will be operated the coming spring is yet
in doubt. EDEN.
THE Dt - NizAnns.—A new church of, the
Dunkard, or German Baptist denomina
tion, situated about four miles from Leba
non, on the Compbellstown road, VolL.s .
dedicated on the 16th inst. The building
is a plain well built 0110 story brick'house,
handsomely located. As is their custom,
no special serviees were held on the occa
sion, and no collection was taken up, the
business portion of their church enterprises,
being attended .tor in ; separate axieetinoi.
The denomination is said to be increa&ng
rapidly in portions of Lancaster, Lebanon
and Dauphin countiesgitnecessary
for them to build 'churches to hold then
meetings in, instead of holding them in
private houses, as they formerly did. This
makes,the second chuch dedicated by the
society in Lebanon county within the' last
few months.—. Reading Times.

The above table is appended by the Board to
their annual report, In Justice to the tai-pay
era, as well as themselves and their predeces
sors, under whcwe adminlatratlon the 111.1 V
Hospital was erected, at a coat of $22,150 az, It
will be wen that lu ten years previous to If
erection the aggregate amount pald to ti.
Htate Lunatic Asylum for keeping Insane who
could not be accommodated here wile $11,211 St,
the annual cost having doubled in that time.
This fact, In their opinion Justified the Hirer
tors In erecting the new building, The abut
figures fully vindicate the wisdom of thell
course, end more than realize their expecio
Hons.
The actual earnings of the Hospital for board -
lug insane patients amounted, for 1808 (the firm
year of Its occupancy), to the sum of 11,24$ 75
over four per cent. on the amount inVested In
the new building; while for the yearjust close. I
(ISIS) tho receipts reported above, and paid into
the treasury, are $2,217 60, which, with out.
sta,nding amounts, will make the total curer
lags for the year eight per cent. on the Invest -
meat:
It will thus be seen that the Improvement
instead of am additional burden has alreatb
become self-sustaining, It not a source of
nue to the tax-payers, and lea financial aucce.,-
as welt as a humanitarian measure. •
During the past two years but Rai 42 haa heel,
paid to the titate , Ltinatits Asylum, being to
two aged and Infirm ternalee, who have been
there for m any years, and whom It was nn
