Excerpt from The New England Medical Gazette, Vol. 25 Those recently a licted come generally from their own homes, being conscious that something Strange has occurred within them by which they are changed from their former condition. They have lost their afiection for their relatives; their surroundings no longer have a familiar appearance; they feel themselves so differ ent that in many cases they do not consider themselves any longer the same per sons. Their imagination, founded ou ignorance, leads them to dread an insane hos pital above all places. They need in that condition to be treated in small cottages or small wards, where they will see either none or very few other patients, and their companions should be those who are recovering or who have a mild form of the disease. They certainly should not be grouped in large wards with a mass of incurable patients having fixed delusions, in whose condition they recognize a prophecy of what is awaiting them. To provide such accommodations is better even from a business stand-point, without considering higher motives. Most of the curable cases recover in from three to six months. Suppose, for example, that the longer period of six months be necessary to effect a cure, and let us assume that double the rates are paid for the care of such cases, in order to furnish the best possible conditions; at the end of that period the patient is able to be restored to his home, perhaps to be self-supporting. If, on the other hand, the same person should be thrown among the incurable, disturbed and demented classes, without the helpful in uence of pleasant surroundings and subject to the terrible effect of constant companionship with others in the advanced stages of the same disease, he may pass into a chronic condition, and remain for years a public charge, costing many times over the same sum. The financial showing of a hospital at the present rates is benefited by crowding. To give each patient the proper amount of air space, with single rooms for most of them, and with a proportion of nurses of one to eight or ten patients, requires such an expenditure of money, that 5 a week makes the strain after economy very great upon the officers of the hospital, or makes the administration of the hospital impossible at that cost. When, however, fifteen to twenty-five per cent. More patients are crowded into the building than it has accommodations for, the ex penses are not materially increased, while a large addition is made to the income. The number of cures made by the hospital, and the welfare and contentment of the patients, are known and appreciated only by a limited number; while the finan cial statement can be read at a glance, can be easily published, is appreciated by all, and is a standard basis of successful management. The temptation, therefore, to overcrowd, is present even to those who are acquainted most intimately with the evils of such a condition.

Excerpt from New England Medical Gazette, Vol. 18 Turning to a wider field, and considering what has been done in the homeopathic school, we may confidently answer that never before have we made such progress in a single year. Our national association, our State, county, and local societies, have held large and interesting meetings, and have done an unusual amount of valuable work. Our hospitals, already emer ging from their infantile state, are gaining strength rapidly, and acquiring reputations as successful, well-conducted institutions. Our dispensaries are carrying to the poor blessings which, though they may have been slow to appreciate, they are now none the less grateful for. Our colleges have done more and better work than in any preceding year, and our journals, on every side, bear marks of prosperity. What has been said of the whole country applies with even greater force to Boston. All our institutions here are prosperous, and the number of our practitioners (116) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
