Townsend, a New York Lawyer. °~ °* Spectat Correspondence af The ‘Trivune, New Yonk, Dec. 10,.—Tho manner in which {hat unfortunato class of people, the Insane, are treated In public and private asylams, Is some- thing in which every person, pusscssed of the slightest humano feeling, must feel a deep in- terest. When Charles Renae, the great English novellst, wrote *‘Hard Cash,” whereln hoex- posed the abuses of private mad-houses, and showed how casily o perfectly sano person could be ncarcerated in them for years, subjected to tha grossest brutality, the English nation stood spbost at the disclosure. - Interested persons attempted to discredit his statements, but ho supplemented them with such an nrray of fn- disputnble facts that s revolution in the system was sccured, Parllament fnterfered in behelf of tho unfortunats lunatics, and, by the cnact- ment of stringent luws, sécured for them botter treatment, at the sama time providing such safcgunrds agalnst the confinement of sane per- eons 88 to render it almost an Im- possibllity. Recent events In New York ond Brooklyn have dirccted public attentlon 10 our {nsane asylums which ia Ifkely to lead to fmportant results, In New York an olderly 1ady, while down-town, becama BEWILDERED BY THR CROWD sud the rushof business, lost her way, received an injury In stepping from the strect-cars, and waa found fu o dazed condition by & policeman, who took ber to the station-lliouse. Her fright and nervousnces had served to turn hier mind, already weakened by old age, oft its balance, and shy was unsble to give any aecount of herself, talking In a fecble and incoherent mauner, She was pronounced insane and sent to the hospltal ot Blackwell’s Island. Bho was finally dfs- covered by her Iriends, who found her mind restored, and she was removed to hier home, Blic was physleally, however, very much broken down, having been subjected to rough end brutal treatment which o strong, robust person could scarcely resist, She had been piuuged into,g cold bath and .marched, {n o nude condl- tlon, through the halls of the hospital; had been strapped down to @ bed In a strait- facket, and hod been knocked down ond beaten, Her statement fluding its way ioto tho mewspapers, the Com- missloners of Public Chiarities and Corrections, who bave chargo of the Asylum, commenced an Investigation. Bo contradictory, however, were the stateruents cliclted from the sultering lady and tho attendants at the Asylum, that tho Commissloners flnallyreferred the wholo matter to the State Commissionefin Lunacy, There 18 vory little confidence in his doing anything, as, fn'other cases where complaiots have been made, e has been found on the side of the Asylums. A socond case was that of Mrs. J. T. Norton, who, whils suffering from o mild ond perfectly harmless derangement of the lraln, was sent to the Bloominidalo Asylum. She was never violont In the elizhtest degree, her principal trouble bcin{z that she imagin: thnt sbe had o nursing chifld in her arms and sought to nurse it inthe usual manuer. Bhe subsequently entirely recovered her reason, and-was released. Tho treatment she recelyed at the hospital for her mild malady sppeara to have been chiofly THE BTRATINWAISTCOAT, . blows, choking, cold Dbaths, cxposurs n & nude state to other patients in the halls_ of the hulding, strupping down to her bed by ropes attached to ‘ther extremitics, and'a varioty of other physical tortures, not to mention bad food, bad nir, ete. As a consequenco of one brutal attack upou her, when two or three stalwart attendants foree s0ine nouseous medicine down her throat, sha recelved serious iujuries to her throat which have become permanent—a positive deformity. 'ho facts fn this cuse were submitted to Dr. Ordronaux, tho Stata Commisaloucr, who took sworn testimony in the case, As a rosult of his Investigation, he made 8 lengthy report, dis- crediting the statements of Ars, Norton, and defendiug the Asylum. Ho concluded, how- ever, by saying that the attendant who had caused the deformity to Mrs. Nortou's throat was deserving of reproof, which he would In- struct the mansgers of the fnstitution to {mpart 1o him privately, lest the public denunciation of Lis brutality should {uterfore with his future ueefuloess In the Asyluin, Thesecases natural- }{ provoked much ‘discussion, eriticlsm, aud a eslre to know more regurding the men- %gnment of the patlentsinthelunatic asylums, ‘ortuuntely, & Charles Readc has arisen among us i tho person of a lawyer named . JOUM 1, TOWNSERD, and.bis treatment of the subject fa likely to bs attended with as boneficlul results ss was the crusade of Mr. Reade fn England, Last night, ot the roquest of & Jarze number of ludies of Brooklyn who aro fnterested fo a movement looking to the bullding of an insane uglum in that city, to be conducted on humnane principles, r, Townsend delivered a lecture upon the treatment of the fngano, It was & remarkable effort, strking aud startling in some of its etatemonts, [t was a lecture to which the ‘widest publicity should be given, and should be sttentively perused In cvery locality where such an asylum exists, As I h-flmncd to_be 5 vnent. and s nelther the Brooklyn nor New ‘ork papers hinve reported him to "the extent they should Lave done, I proposc to give you the benefit of la most sallent wofuts. “He refaced his remarks by ssying that, in a pro- esslonal capacity, he liad hiad unusual facilitica for ascertalning somothing about the manage- meut _of jusano asylums. laylng been em- ployced as counsel fn aoveral cascs, Lo had been 8o much intercsted as to fuduco him to l\udK up the subject, and to familiarize himself witl the modes of treating the fusaug in Europcan countries. 1ls rcsearchos proved to him that inno other countty were TIH INSANM 80 COMPLETELY I0NORED 08 in this, Let » person, whether sauo or insant be once immured within a lunatic asylum, an his or her exlstence secined to be l}!nurcd Ly the [Nlhllc thereafter, Thoy were left cotirely at he mercy of the managers and atlendants of tho ssylum, who treated them well or ill as best sulted those at whose Instance thoy were con- fined. ‘The 1aws relative to Junatio asyluins are, 1n the maln, well enough; but the trouble lles {n the fact that everybody takes it for granted that they will bo obieyed, while it Is nobody's busiucss to ascertalu that such is the foct, The State Commissioner has very littlo power, and 18 80 hatupercd n some directions as to furnish a valid excuse for veglecting his dutles entircly, B Fy o sinecure, mnmi the Btate $5,000 per antium. Mr, Ffownsend dld not hesitate to say that be Lelieved the presont Commissioner secured bils appolntinent through the influence of the inanagers of aayltue throughout the State. 1o wont onto say that ke had evidonce to shuw that some of these atylums were dens of Inlquity and theatres of outrage oud brutality. After very fully oxposlug the ‘insuffdency of laws creating the office of Conuntssfoner’jol Lunacy, Mr, Townscud reluted severnl cuscs of the imprisonment of sane persons for futervsted mutives, One of these wus thut of a respecta- ble gentleman, In good standing, who was fn possessfon of cortaln facts relative to othors which they were fcarful he would expose. In Seprembur, 1869, thoy succeoded i gettiug him cuntived 1IN THE NLOOMINGDALR ASTLUA. ‘The victim embraced tho liret opportunity pre- eented of writlng to Mr, Townsend, und beg- ging himn to secure hils release b& legal mcans o necessary, Mr, Townsend called ot the Asylum 10 see hla cllent. ilo was met by Dr, Brown, the Superintendent, who ussured Lim hat L clent was really {osane, aud that an interview with Ll at that ttme” would not fail to inake him much woree. Acconding to Charles Roade, this fan part of the regular “formnla " of the private mndlionses of fingland, No ano from the oul- side world is to be altowed, inder any pretext to hiold comuunication with the “paticnts,’ Avcording to My, Townsend, this “form- ula," and nmany others unknown to tho Kngiish aystem, aro fn vogue In our own asyluma. Thereupon My, Town- send left, nccepting as truth what wos the mere formuia for getting rid of a troublesome out- sller, A few days Iater, ho recelved, avolher nota from the victim bexging him o Interfere it ils behalf, and not to eredit the storles tha would be told to him, ‘Thercupon he mad another visit {o the As')‘lmu, aud was again re- fured an fnterview with his patient. Returning to the uity, hic procured & writ of habeas corpis, which was scrved upon Dr. Brown, Bofore the writ was returnable to court, Mr. Towngend was surprised Ly n visit from his_client, whom he found to be entirely sane. He said thatho had Leen pertntted to comne out on glving his word to return, Buspeeting that this was a dodge on the Ym of the manager,—who hoped the patient would absent himself for o time, and thus ennble itm to make return to the writ to thoef- fect that the person demanded was not in his custody, yet atill holding the onler of committ- ment and suthority to rearrest ~ him at any time,~Mr. ‘Townsend advised his client to returm, which he did, When the wrlt was returnable, th atlent was prodnted fu court, whera his sanity was thoroughly demonatrated, It took all the pow- erof tha Court, howover, to sccuro his release, Dr. Brown maintalned that he waa {naane, ns er the certificates of the plyaicinns nppen:lexl 0 the commitmient. The discherged patient bad no redress against the manngers of the Asylum, for they held the necessary legal cer- tificates of tho physiclans, and fio remedy nfilnac the physicians who had sworn away his NHborty, as.they could plead that they belleved the nion to be tnsane, and 1t they made a mis- take, it was slmply an error of judgment. Still another case In which the lecturck was profes- slonally interosted, was that of . A FENPECTLY BANE LADY, 73 years of uge. Bhe was a lady pos- sesscd of sume means, which an ungrateful sun wus anxious to obtain. Il therefors caused his mother to bo confined In the Bloomingdale Asy- lum as o lunatic, 8he sent for Mr. Townacnd, who, on_apulylng to see her, was met by the same formuln, * that it would Lo dahbger. ous to the patient, He immedlately sued out 8 habens, which, belog served on Dr. Brown, the lady wia relensed by him forthwith, the Doctor evidently not, rellsh: ing an exposure {n the courts. The lady spent two months in Mr, Townsend's family, finmedi- ately following her release, and there was not the alightest doubt as to her sanity. AN INTELLIGENT “ LUNATIO " was found In tho Lu:non of Mr. Jasper T, Van Vieck, 8_retired broker, pos -m{’ of large means, This gentloman having incurred the fil will of soine ‘gentlenten (1) among whom were two physiclans, they made out the hecessary pn- pers to sceurs higcommitment to ulunmlnx;dlsc. Arined with these documents, two stalwart then scized upon him while lic was walking alone, hurriod him fnto a carriage, and soon deposited him {n the Asylum. For two months lie was so overwhelmed nnd distressed by belng thus torn from his home snd robbel of his lberty that he could deylse no means of escaping that wore not. thwarted by the attendants, This time he im- proved by making notes of what he saw, and fs now pm;mrln;{ & pamphlot relating his experiences, Kina) Il) he managed to communieato with Mr. Towusend, and that .gentleman resolved to sce him. Ha did not, however, apply to the managers for on interylew, as bo hind done on previous ocea- slons, but contrived to meet his_ client ‘n the erounds, Belfog satisficd as to his sanity, ho resolved to sccurs hia reloase by habeas corpua, What was his nm“;mo on_golig to hls clnco next morning to find Mr. Van Vieck . there be- fore hitn, Iis interviow with him In the asylum grounds had been observed by gome of the at~ tendants, and the result was that Dr. Brown discharged him rather than encounter Mr. Townsond in the courts, ‘This was a clear ad- missfon that the man who had been robbed of his rights was perfectly sane, and that I3 canl- V waa weli nown 8t tho Asylum. Mr. Van Jeek made good nse of the Informutlon ho had obtained, and co-oporated with Mr. Townsend 1o sceurc the release of other PERPROTLY SANE PATIENTS, Among those thus released through thelr fn- strumentality was Rosa McCabe, a Sister of Charity, knownby thename of Sister Stanislaus, who had been sent to the Asylum by her slater Deenuse she insiated that a ‘lflenl had taken fmproper Uberties with her. When Dr, Brown lcarned that an nttempt was belng made to se- curc her release, ho transferrod” her to the Blackwell's Island Asylum. _(Another practive which, according to Charles Reade, 18 much in vogue in England tothide alteged lunatics from their friends, the manngers of such institutions belng i coflusion to_prevent thelr being re- stored to liberty,) A habeas corpus, however, secured her presonce In court, where every ad- vantags was taken of tho * law's delays™ to prevent lier release. Finally sho was dls« charged, and no question of her sanity las ever been entertafued since. BTOILIES OF ATTENDANTS, + Among the attendants at Bloomingdale were Mr. and Mrs. Irwin, Mr. Townsend stated that these persons, diagusted with the cruolty and brutality which they witnessod, llt the Asylum voluntarily at the same time Mr. Van Vieck did. ‘They fiad served os attendants as o means of urn(n;i o lving, but, belng possessed of alittle humanity, they preferred taking thelr chnnces of earning an Lonest Mvelihood outside those walls to participating in the cruelties and outrages perpetrated wichin, They have made aflidavits charging the Asylum people with ignorance, inattention, and gross abuse of tho patients. They afirm thot the food Is bad, the rooms not properly ventilated or heated; that the femole attendaiits arelowd In their con- duct; that blasphemous and indecent languago is frequently shiowered upon the patlents; that beating, kicking, and choZlnu patienta are cotn- mon practices, Thelr aftidavits, which Mr. ‘Townsond read, speclfy numeorous cases whete atients were subjected to theso indignitics. 'hey charge that sane persons are frequent in- mates of tho Asylum, and are subjected to the wame treatiment as thoso who aro really lusane, Also, that persons whose mental derungement conslsts l|mnl¥ of some cccentricity of habit are confined with violent lunatics, wliose parox- ysms are so feurful aa to require that they be testrained, They swear that in one fnstancy A PATIENT WAS POISONED by the doctor glving him medicine. According to their story, the g:,uent bad heen slck, but was convalescent, Bome medicing was sent him by tho doctor, which nade himsick, When tho doctor was summoned he sald, “I didn't mean to glve this man any medlelne; but let him dle, fricnds Wil be gla to get rtid of him." The patlent soon’ bocaino speechless, and dlod next day. They chargo that the rooms occupled by the patients aro often in the fitbiest condition, and the pa- tients made to Bnrl'urm the moet menial scryice. They mention that Col. F. W, DePeyster, who ‘was an inmate of the Au(lum for n time, was choked on oné occasion tifl the blood stresmed from his mouth. Thoso former sorvauts of the inatitution were not dischurged, but left of thelr own_volition, recelving certilicates of character ‘which are hlghly vomplimentary to them, Mr. Townsend deeins tlien entirely worthy of eredlt, as have also the courts before which they have testiiied fu several cases. Bloomingdale is & private asylum, the charges for taking care of patients belng in accordarice with the supposed menus of the friends who bewolne responalble for the payingnts.

Wasmnoron, D, O, Dec. 17.—While hot- headed and dosperate partisans on both sides have been making mysterious threats sincs the assumbling of Congress a fortnight ago, Ben- ators and Representatives of greater Inflaence have heen quletly looking over the situation, and have taken the fnitiative steps for a pacific and honorable solutlon of the now muddled Morrison and Hewltt may blusteringly declare that Tilden Is to be Inaugurated by cutting throats, and Zach Cliandler may lssue his deflant responses to Democratic pronunclamientos; but the panacea for the existing {114 of our body-politlc 1s to be found In the cstablishment of a proper tribunat for the counting of the Elcctoral vote, '* whose nuthority no one can question, and whoase de- cisfon all will accevt as final!! such a iigh Court, to bear and end tho preaent partisan difforences of opinlon, is gencrally manifested among Lhe Senatora and Represent~ atives; and it is hardly probable that on the 5th of March our country is to be disgraced by Lav- Ing two Presidents, each claiming the right to perform tho duties of the office, and enllsting support among those who enjoy or who desire ofiiclal position. SENATOR RDMUNDS, of Vermont, took the (nftiative by getting be- fore tho Benate his constitutfonal amendment conferring pawer to count tho Electoral votes upon the SBupreme Court. But many Republicsn Benators, with overy Democrat except one (Key, of Tennessec), voted agafust the proposi- tion, and made {t certain that no constitutional amendment can be passed at the present ses- slon.
