whoever lie may find capable aruoug the inmates

mote better treatment. Theie is but little im
provement, and as several of the insane were for
years in the State Hospital without any improve
ment, there is not much boric for them to le re-
I stored her:. During the year two improved so
lar as to be allowed to leave, and one so as to le
of some use in the house. Cleanliness, the use i.f
the shower bath exercise and diet are the mean,
used for their alleviation, and it cannot be san!
that our tuccess h is been very gratifying. I
take this opportunity cf returning my thanks to
the different musical associations who have visi
ted the bouse during the year for the diversion of
the in mate of all classes. Under the nrowvtion
j of a merci fill Providence the inmates have lieen
' remarkably healthy, but few died, and those
