There were admitted dui of the In- 201 patients, of whom 50 were whole num’ | course of the males. 32 males and 15 females died duri: | year. The recoveries wert 68 per cent. the discharges, and 4 per cent. of the discharges and deaths, The hs were less than 6 per | cent. of the whole number (762) of cases under treatment. There remained under treatment on the 30th day of June, 1873—males, 468; fe- males, 152; total, $20. Since the hospital was opened for the recep. tion of patients, in January, 1855, 3,348 different persons have been under treatment in the insti- | tution, 1.0: of whom were natives of the United States, and 1.529 natives of foreign countries.

THE GROUNDS OF THE ASYLUM. Soon after the preparation of the iast report pital came into possession of the tract of 1 rood, and 24.10 perches of agricul- and, for the purchase of which Congress had made the requisite appropriation; and more recently the United States has received the gratuitous deed of one-third of an acre of land lying adjacent to the northwestern boundary of the inclosed grounds, and embracing a deep, narrow ravine, the control of which by the hos pital authorities will enable them to prevent the undermining of the boundary wall at that point. There are now ewned by the United States and devoted to the objects of the hospi- tal alittle upward of 419 acres of land, about 10 acres of which are embraced in one nearly cewplete parallelogram. The remainder is & single tract, conveniently situated for grazing or the coltivation of the staple annual crops. ‘The original purchase of about 185 acres, with- in which the hospital edifices are situated, is in- closed by a wall 9 feet high, except on the river front, and perhaps there is no other establish- ment of the kind fm the world wherein the great desideratum to the insane of liberty, com- bined with priv: has been rendered a3 prac- ticable, and been realized to the same extent ‘The amount «jue to indiv dual lepositors and to banks and bankers is $1 ,074,450.89, on which the dividend declared will amount to sii2, 26. The amount due to individual depositors alone is $559,981.50, 0n which the dividend of thirty cent. is $101,994.45.
