Editors Volksfreund : At the Invitation of the Chairman of Joint Committee on Public Benevolent Institutions, Messrs Corey and Bateg,-oY Hamilton, your cor respondent accompanied then) on the I tour of Inspection to Southern Lunatic Asylum, at - Dayton, and to Longview Asylum, Hamilton County. We leit Co lumbus on Thursday evening last, arriving at Dayton saini night, - where we were . well received by the popo ar and efficient Superintendent, Dr. Richard Gundry. We were first shown to the Chapel, where wo found the Inmates engaged in dancing with the attendants, and freely mingling with them. They all seemed to enjoy themselves, and were no doubt benefitted by this amuse- ment, which experience has taught to be so beneficial in institutions of this kind. After partaking of a magnificent supper, we were conducted to the parlors, where the committee were highly entertained and hospitally received by the accom plished wife of Dr. Guudry and her rela tives, Mrs. Gundry and daughter,Miss Lena Gundry, of Toronto, Canada,and Miss Alice Gundry, of London, England. Iu the morning the committee visited (he various ward., and went through the entire building, under the conduct of Drs. Gundry and Conkiin. We found the floors white and clean, the rooms, dormitories and balls all in good condition and well ventilated, the inmates apparently doing well and satisfied with their treatment. The building itself is a fine specimen of architecture, and well adapted to the purposes lor which it was built, and presents a front of 7S3 teet in length. It Is situate on a hill overlooking the beautiful city of Dayton, abont two miles distant from it, and easily accessible by a good turnpike. The grouutU imme diately adjoining the Asylum are well laid out with shrubbery, a line lawn and forest trees, and embrace seventy-four acres. The location and surrounding reflect much credit on the wisdom of those who selected this beautiful spot lor the habi tation of those poor unfortunates whose sad lot It Is to be forced to avail themselves of this magnificent charity on the part of the S:ate. The capacity of the Institution is five hundred patients, but at present It contiins only four hundred and twenty. The house Is heated by steam and lighted by gas, which Is manufactured on tbe premises. In producing the necessary heat they con- nine from 40,000 to 50,000 bushels coal per ar. Capt. Haldeman of the committee mtde a thorough and critical examination of tbe steam boilers and engine", and pro- unced them safe and sound iu every particular, having all the necessary water and steam guages, safety and lock-up valves, etc., etc., and under the charge ol competent engineer. The cooking ap paratus and facilities are t r lie most improved kind, and all that la necessary for health and comfort is there. Capt. Haldeman, being a practical man la reference to boilers and engine?, the comnittee accepted his report without inquiry. . Tae Asylum is controlled by a Board of Trustees, appointad by the Governor, to whom tliey' annually report. The present Board is as follows : H. Jewett, M D., of Dayton. I. N. Gard, M.D, Greenville, Darke county. A. Waddle, Hi q., South Charleston, Clarke county. . Li. Dunham, M. L., Camden, reble county. A. G. McBurney, ii-q., Lebanon Warren county. - G. W. Roger?, Secretary, Dayton. resident officers. Physician and Superintendent Richard Gundry, M. D. - Assistant Physicians W. J. Conkllu, M.D : U. B. Nunemaker, M.D. Steward O.H. Oldroyd, Esq. Matron Mrs. M. M. Gundry. The attendant employes number 50, the salaries of which range from $11 to $75 per month. Dr. Conkiin, the First Assistat t Physi cian, who is In charge of the Female De partment, took great interest in showing us around, and by his courtesy made many friends. The sami credit was given to Dr. Nune maker, tbe other Assistant, whose reputation, lor the short time be has been there, is not excelled in any institution of the kind in the State. - The number of insane admitted f jr tbe year ending November 15, 1869, was 297 129 males, 163 females. There were discharged as recovered, (during the same time,) 10243 males, 51 females; improved, 105 males, 5 females; unimproved, 6 females ; died, 157 males, 8 females. The natlvityof those admitted was of those born tbe United States, 228: ot foreign birth, 69. Of those In the United State?, those born In Ohio were, 171; in other States, 67. The civil condition of those admitted was of single, 133; married, 137, widowed, 27. The occupation of males, was, farmers, 51; laborers, 26; clerks, 5; clergymen, 2; merchants, 8; students, 5, lawyers, 4; teachers, 3; gardeners, l;bakers, 1; painters, 2; tinners, 1; carpenters, 5; mi chinlsts, 2. It will thus be seen that the largest proportion of inmates is from the farming and laboring class. Next to them come merchants, clerks, la wers, etc. 'The less number being among mechanics. Of the two grand divisions, which, by common consent, are claimed as principal causes of Insanity, mania, or a state of ex altation, is the larger. Of 831 cases re ceived since the foundation of the Asylum 505 recovered, of 457 cases of the other di vision, characterized by depression, melan cholia, 251 recovered. The age3 of all received range from 20 to 80 years, the major portion being un under 30 years old. The current expenses of the Institution during the year ending November 15, 18C9 was $61,471 99-100. Alt ;r examining all that was necessary and the Committee being satisfied with the excellent management, they left Friday noon for Longview . Asylum, arriving there tbe same evening, where they were warmly welcomed and hospitably received by Dr. Langdon, the gentlemanly Superintendent, and Steward Tborbnn, who bountifully supplied us with all the wants of the inner and spiritual man. On Saturday we were shown through the wards male and female departments by Drs. Langdon and Courtrigbt, his able assistant, who afforded tbe committee every 'facility for the Information they desired. We found the balls and rooms in best of condition, and well ventilated, tbe former of which were lined with beautiful chro-mo, lithographs and engraving?, all da. signed to please and divert tbe minds of the patients. Every luxury that a liberal Directory can bestow is given. An important feature that Dr. Langdon has introduced is that ot having cages of different kinds ot birds, warbling sweet muslo for the gratification of his subjects, all through tha spacious building, We could extend our notice to great length of this model Asylum, were we to go Into detail, and describe all we saw Suffice it to say, that Hamilton county may well- be proud of ber Longview After dining, we were taken in charge by Mayor Torrence, of Cincinnati, Messrs, Kessler, Burgoyne and Seifert, the Trustees, and conveyed in carriages to the County Work-house, which institution we gave a hasty vie it. From there we went to the city and visited Cincinnati Hospital, where the Directors had prepared for us an elegant bo pper. The committee consisted of Senators Abel 51. Corey, chairman, Dr?. Cowan, Jenner, Holden and Welsh, and Sergeant - at-Arms Jos Gutzwiler, on the part of the Senate, and Representatives Bates. of Hamilton, chairman, Dr?. Schoenfeldt, tsroote and Strong, Messrs. Green. Hav ward, Holdeman, Steele and Baker, of Coshocton, accompanied by Dr. Peck, of Central Oblo Lunatic Asylum, who afford ed the committee valuable assistance, and wuue cool, the pet Mesaengar boy of the House, ail ol whom were well pleased with their visit. From a sense ot justice to said committee, I cannot but give them the credit they so truly deserve, tor the strict attention they paid to businets avoiding all pleasure. They were selected' wita a knowledge of their entire fitnets for the position, and have fully shown the wisdom of the President of the Senate and Speaker of the House In thus appointing them. In this innection I return my thanks to my friends, H. M. Bates, Esq., Dr. Schoenfeldt and Mr. Bettleton, (who met us at Dayton,) of the House, and Senators Cowan, Holden and Jenner, of Senate, who afforded me every opportunity to obtiin information and made the trip a pleasant one lor all. Xhe Trustees of the Asylum at Davton have asked of tha General Assembly more land and a special appropriation of $15,000 to make tbe root perfectly fire-proof. The committee have not yet considered this request, but will do so at an early day. fhelr action, of course, 1 cannot anticipate. bnt venture the opinion that it would be wise and Judicious appropriation. W. M. Xhe Clly Election IVorainaaloai ol Candidate. Columbus, March 16, 1870. Editor of Statesman: Sir In view of the fact that since the call for a Democratic Convention for the purpose of nominating candidates to fill the offices of Trustees cf Water Work?, City Treasurer, etc., appeared In your paper, a numerous tribe of aspirants to office have sprung up, It may not be unwise to caution these patriots (?) who are so willing to sacrifice tbemselve for the benefit of tbe city, that the people of Columbus will have something to do with the election of officer?. Go where one may on the streets, his, patience Is put tolbe test by the button, nollng, accompanied with the request "Won't you support me for the nomination as candidate for Trustee of Water Works ? It would seem as if every politician in town, from the biggest to the most insig nificant and incompetent, thinks himself ust the man to run the Water Works, if not for the best Interests of the city, at least to draw the most water to his own barrel. Let the delegates to the Convention be admonished in time, that there is a wide- spread determination on the part of the citizens that good, efficient and responsible men, and none other?, will be supported at the election. The fret is well known and has been too long deplored, that men. who should never have been elected to any office, have thrust themselves for ward and succeeded in getting themselves nominated and elected; while some, who could not spell ten words of English cor rectly, and others, who could scarcely write their own names In a readable manner, so manipulated conventions and voters as to get nominations for positions that required both learning and ability, until, in some Instances the Democrats, in particula Wards, and in the city at large, were com pelled, rather than submit to the shame of electing them, to vote for Negro-worship ing Republicans. Let a word to the wise be sufficient There is a firm determination that the right men shall till the right places. Tbe Convention has a responsible duty to per form. Oa the delegates to the coming Convention depends the life of the party in this city, and any dttleg&t who tries to foist a pet of his own as a candidate on the party, will fiod himself disappointed on tbe morning of tbe filth day of April. A Democratic Tax Pa ter. Who la Mho ! The Dayton Journal ot Tuecday has the following: "Stephen H. Nowlen, ot Wales, Ogle county, 111., writes to Sheriff Swadener, of this city, for information in regard to a voung girl who claims to be an adopted daughter of Daniel Lawrence, who formerly lived about three miles and a half south or Dayton, iier story is briefly this: About three years ago Mr. Lawrence died; and last September bis wife was taken sick with terrible pains in ber stomach, and died suddenly in con vulsions. Before she died, she told the girl that she was not ber child, as she bad al ways snppoted, but was the daughter of a man who died near Columbus, and was heir to a fine farm some five miles north of Columbus, occupied by a man named William Moore. After the death of Mrs, Lawrence, her son George and wife moved in their mother's house, and the girl con tinued to live with them until about six weeks ago, when they told ber that she was to go to an uncle's In Chicago. They bobbed her hair, much against her will, took her t) the depot at Dayton, and put her in charge of a baggage-man in one of the trains, and shipped her to Chicago, When she reached that city, she says she was put off the train and told to go where she pleased. She came across a family at the depot who were going to Wale?, and after bearing nor story, they took ber along. This is, in substance, the story which Mr. Nowlen writes to Sheriff Swadener. He says tbe girl is about six teen years old, is good-looking, and well- behaved, and tells ber story with an air of truthfulness. It strikes us that It can be easily ascertained whether her story is true or false, by those who will take the interest to ascertain. Who is George Lawrence f And whose farm does Mr. Moore occupy, five miles north of Colum bus? These are the key questions. Tbe public have possession of them. Who Will investigate the matter ?" THE MANSFIELD MURDER. Tlie verdict of the Jury, Our First Report Sustained a No Doubt of the Robinson. G-oilt of Specials to the Statesman from Mansfield last night show that the evidence be fore the Coroner's Jury in the Lunsford murder case, were ol such- description as to still further fasten the crime of murder upon the accused, A. L. Robinson. It was redeveloped that be was bitterly opposed to the marriage of bis pet, Mrs. Lunsford, with Ebersoli, and that he promised to give Ebersoli work at tbe machine shops of Blymyer, Bites & Day provided tbe marriage be indefinitely postponed. In addition to the detailed testimony already published in the Statesman, we add the following : Asa Leech being sworn, testified to hav ing seen a strange man at a saloon in Mansfield on the night ol the murder, who declared that be was from Cincinnati. A photograph of H. S. Wily, found in Mrs Lunsford"? room, was shown bim, and he declared it to be the same person. But the following is the testimony which damages the accused to a greater extent than he is able to bear : "Dr. Bristor, dentist, took a cast ol Rob inson's teeth, and, by order cf the Coroner, the body of Mrs. Lunsford was exhumed and tbe marks on tbe arm compared with the cast by Drs. Loughridge and King, who both, together with the dentist, swore that, after careful and repeated examination, with a full appreciation of the re sponsibility placed on them, they were finally forced to the conclusion that the bites on the murdered woman's arm were made by the mouth from which tbe cast was taken." The jury bad but one thing to do after this testimony was taken. Tbey carefully examined and weighed all the evidence, and rendered a unanimous verdict that "Mary J. Lunsford came te her death by tbe bands of Anson L. Robinson." Tbe friends of A. L. Robinson have is sued a card asking for a suspenetou of ulgment in his case, but this is an old, played out" dodge, which simply means nothing. The man baa been shown to be guilty, as our first report showed, and no tricks can save him. Tbe family of tbe accused are entitled to the sympathies of the community in which they reside, but we have no sympathy with the man, who, after violating tbe moral law f jr years, dropped the curtain over the mutilated rem alns of bis helpless victim.
