A DEAR JIIROR.—The suit of Chas. Trum

at New York, in the Circuit Part 1, before
Justice Potter. A large number of• wit
nesses were examined on the plaintiff, and
when the hour for the adjournment of the
Court had arrived, it was by some means
discovered that one of the twelve jurors was
ileaf, and could notunderstand a word of an
ordinary question put to him by the Court,
The Justice called the juror to him, and sat
isfied himself that he was so deaf as to be
wholly, unfit for jury duty. Counsel for the
defendants being unwilling to proceed with
eleven,the whole case will be recommenced.

13TY4 .-BIULLETIN;:7;
WEST PHrranunpm.A.—ln a, former no
tice of the Insane DepartMent of the Phila
delphia Hospital, -Almshouse, we made a
brief reference to the crowded state of the
Institution at the present .time, and its en
tirely (insufficient accommodation for the
class who are almost massed within its
walls,' and expressed our fears as to the
consequences eat must certainly ensue,
in the case of a Visitation from the Asiatic
cholera. This is no new story, but the
actual presence of a fact, that, long
ago, was patent to the eyes of the
Guardians of the Poor, who were un
able to act in the premises without -the ac
tion of Councils. The highly respectable
and influential gentlemen composing the
present Board are, we are informed on high
authority, about asking the speedy . atten
tion of the City Fathers to this very impor
tant subject. That they 'may be fully ad
vised as to the actual and. past condition of
things, we have been'at no small pains to
procure all the necessary statistics:
The Chief Resident Physician and Super
intendent, 'so far back as 1859, and since, on
March 26th, 1865, specially addressing the
Committee on Insane, in response to inqui
ries on the subject, wrote as follows:
"INSANE DEPARTMENT PHILADELPHIA.

of the Assistants, who have likewise, to be
accommodated in the several apartments,
all of whom have to be properly accommo
dated, so, at that date, no less than 108 had
to have their conches spread upon the floor.
We now bring the matter down to the
time of writing, in an exhibit of the situa
tion as it now stands, having been furnished
with the necessary documents :

The "Men's Third Floor" contains the
hospital or infirmary ward, as does the
"Women's Third Open," a similar provi
sion for the aged, sick and infirm, to both of
which departments the male and female
invalids of other floors, are,
immediately
transferred. The woman, however, are
more fortunate than the men, since they
have a special nurse appointed, bat the
same officer on the male aide has not only
his own average of 70 patients to attend to,
but the additional task of taking care of all
the sick of the othei. floors. Rather severe
labor for one man; the management and
care of so many individuals, with none
other than pauper assistance, never to be
depended upon, sent to him from the out
wards who, receiving no pay, take advan
tage of the situation, obtain "a day's
liberty," and, of course, never return.
It will be seen that the increase from 1805,
when it was 114, has reached 130. Passing
through the scrupulously clean wards dar
ing the day, and examining the bed rooms,
the floors of which are almost snowy in
whiteness, from which one could even eat
without the fear of contamination from a
grain of dust, with the lofty windows thrown
open, and a pleasant breeze generally per
vading the apartments, and visiting the same
rooms at night, and finding in the female de
partments, and beholding no less than
one hundred and nineteen -helpless, inof
fensive creatures huddled away, as it were,
in the vacancies left between the beds, with
their nightly associates and bedfellows, the
rats, that run hither and thither and yon,
in search of food, which
.many of the un
fortunates put in the pockets of thei r dres
ses, stealthily at table, unseen by the watch
ful assistants. The males this year have
only an excess of eleven, bat men can
rough it where women cannot.
The difficulty, however, lies in the fact of
want of room, and "every penny spent in
the improvement of the present location,"
as Mies Dix once said,and that very lately,
addressing one of the Board, "is so much
money thrown away." A new institution
will have to be erected, and it should be re
moved as far as possible from the contami
nation of our Almshouse, somewhere miles
away, in, the midst of leafy greenery, with
the advantages of outdoor exercise and
physical labor, to asist in the physical, and,
of course, a natural sequence, mental re
cuperation of the patient. What a contrast
the contracted limits of the "prison pen" now
occupied by the insane of 'the Alms House
with the palatial splendor and costly ac
commodations of the much-talked-of Penn
Hospital, under the care of Dr. Rirkbride,
where but one hundred poor patients are
admitted annually. Every one else, in that
costly Ostablishment, pays his regalarboard;
or has it paid for him, and when his funds
are exhausted, or the six months in which
the year's residence of the poor inmate's
time has expired, be or she is hurried away
to "Blockley," frequently to leave it after
a week or two's residence, perfectly restored
to health.

Councils, we learn, intend to act speedily
on this master, as they ought; for with the
erection of the new South street bridge, a
farm like that of the Almshouse, contain
ing a river frontage.from Chestnut street to
ipoint below the Arsenal, and. extending
inland flush to the fences of the Woodlands
Cemetery, and containing over one hundred
and eighty acres in its limits, is too
valuable for building lots to be ranch longer
appropriated, to its present purpose.
At the police station this morning there
was a comparative rush of business. Ten
cases were adjudicated by Alderman Allen;
"vagrancy," 'drunkenness," breaches of
the, peace, some of whom were committed,
'some' fined, some discharged; but Catha
rine Glody came to especial grief. She was
a domestic in the • Pennsylvania Hospital
for the Insane, and was 'cot:Emitted on the
charge of larceny. She has been In the
habit ofabstracting clothing from the insti
tution, andwas at last caught in the act,and
so suffers liCcordingly.
CHABGEED •WITE LARCIEN4.—A colored
'man named Carter Williams was arrested
list night by Officel Dolmen, of the Fifth
District, , upon the charge of larceny. For
two years the accused had been employed
in a store on Chestnut street, and occasion
ally he was taken to the house of one of the
proprietors to wait on the table. Articles
have been missed both from the store and
dwelling, and a few days . since a piece of
goods taken from the store was found on
the accused. Williams will have a hearing
at the Central Station this afternoon.
