Abstract

provided for a Museum or Cabinet of Curiosities,—and a neat Chapel has been fited up, and we hope soon to learn that a Chaplain has been appointed, as the worthy super-. intendent has enough to do without being required to per. form the duties of a chaplain. But the space allotted to this article is filled, and we must defer to another time some general observations we intended to make on various subjects which engaged our attention during our journey; and hasten in conclusion to state a fact or two that may be interesting to those who are intending to visit New Orleans—but who wish previ-. ously “¿to count the cost.― The time we occupied it will be seen was two months—Total distance 5057 miles. Travelling expenses, viz, the Steam Boat railroad and stage fare for one person, from Utica to New Orleans in best conveyances, not including expenses at Hotels, 76 dollars. From New Orleans to Utica by the route we re turne4 45 dollars Charges at Hotels about the same in all large towns, two dollars a day.V.Proceedings of the Third Meeting of the Association of Medical Superintendents of Americmz lnstitv4ionss for the Insane.
