J, Herbert I'biUl la American Magaiina t 01TTTT1 All UVWVm In the summer of 1809 1 had occasion to visit tho Itushtnoor Asylum for the Insane. The Institution is, I , believe, reckoned among the bent of its kind in this country. The distinguishing feature in its system of treatment is that of ac cording to patients all reasonable free doma system, I am informed, which has been followed with tho most encour aging results. So far us practicable, the inmates of tho asylum aro treated like sane men and women; and, Instead of being constantly reminded of their in firmity, they are led l forget it, if the power to forget it remains. Ou the day of my visit I had pur chased a cat of medicines for one of the otltunt nlivsirmns. who wna nn inti mate friend. Thin I had done at his re quest, and it was to deliver these medi cincs that I made tho journey to Hush ..nr. ciuvllllll fliifw, y ....... Ainnilinrr tlin mnauirn fitnnA Rtpn..
