The Lunatic Asylum.
Is Anybody to Blame ? and, If so, Who ?
Cartebsyille, August 15, 1873.
To THE EDITOB3 of tb* Hkbald:
Yoa remember the case of lunacy of my
wife, while at the Bartow House. I think 1
have been treated badly at the Asylum, and
wish to know if you and your paper, the
Herald, will stir up the matter.
1 know nothing of the treatment of my wife
while at the Asylum, but know that she soon
died.
After she was received, I tried to get some
information from Dr. Green abont her condi
tion, but never received a letter till the day
before she died, and that stated that for the
liutt three days the case was most hopeful.
The next day I received a letter stating that
she wa^ dead. And as the letters were two
Tta^fgettiTfw * to- me, she had already been
buried.
I received no telegram of her being worse,
or of her death, t ill I received the letter stat
ing she was dead.
Through the influence of Mr. Eaves of this
place, who had the brick contract for the ex
tension of the Asylum, my wife was carried to
the city cemetery for burial, for which I am
very thankful. When I learned of her death
and informed her lather’s family, her mother
wished her trunk and clothing returned to
them. I wrote Dr. Green to return them, but
waiting for some time, and not hearing from
him, I wrote Mr. Eaves to go and see him,
and request him to have the trunk and cloth
ing returned. I offered to pay what they
were worth if necessary, in order to have them
returned to the family. Dr. Green promised
to have the matter attended to at once, but I
still heard notLing from them.
In Ihe meantime I bad written Dr. Green,
to give me some idea of the condition and
state of my wife, and what she said during
those short spaces of consciousness. When
I lost all hopes of hearing from him, I wrote
to Rev. J. A. Jarrell, the Chaplain, who very
kindly gave me and the. family very satisfacto-
xy, if not very full, information of my wife’s
condition and state of mind during her stay
in the Asylum, for which we feel very grate
ful. After this, failing to hear from Dr.
Green on the same subject, and having
heard from Mr. Jarreli, I thought I would try
him about the trunk and clothes. So, on
the 8th of July last I wrote him all the facts
in relation thereto, but have failed to hear
from him.
Is this right? Is it not a Shite Institution?
And should not th -se having business with
the Asylum have reasonable information
given them? Please let me hear from you on
the subject. Yours truly,
Thos. M. Comptaed.
INDIAN SPRING.
An Interesting Letter from an Atlanta Lady—
Scenes at the Spring.
To the Editors of the Hebaldt
Knowing that you take great delight in set-
i possess
l the aa-
are but xeryJew professed Democratic papers
in the State, and I think I speak truly when I
state that there is not one outspoken expo
nent of the white man's faith. Nearly all are
either Radical or neutr&L Sometimes the
editor of a professed Democratic paper awakes
from his lethargy, and makes an attack at the
principles and frauds of the opposite party,
but as soon as done he is willing to beg par
don, for fear he has offended some one. All
want pap and cet it% With a bold, free press,
this State would soon oome out into the gran
deur it once occupied, but until we
such a blessing, the negro will be in
cendency, and the whites on the decline.
Were the white people of South Carolina to
rise, to-morrow, over the negro, every
little sheet in the State would cry
“down with the negro,” for the editors of Re-
poblican newspapers in this State are as
much a traitor as was Judas, although Judas
betrayed his Master—while they are selling
their own flesh and blood for the “almighty
dollar.”
I believe in a negro being well educated, if
he earns the money himself; but the idea that
every black urchin we see here, costa some
white man four or five dollars per year to ed
ucate him, when his own black skunk of a
father only pays his poll tax. The same
black devil will talk saucy to the white child
of his benefactor, and if he receives any in
return, will probably assault him with some
weapon. Let the white father defend his
child he is arrested, and, for $5 her head,
you can get twenty negroes to swear he is a
kuklux. So much lor returning evil for
good.
Unless some measures are very soon adopt
ed, I think this State will have to repudiate
her public debt, as there are a pack of gour
mands who will soon appropriate all the
available funds to their own use.
The boldest attack yet made upon any of
the Republican posse, was by the editor of a
Radical paper upon the State Treasurer. He
seems to imply that a cool $200,000 has acci
dentally fell into the pocket of the Treasurer,
and he (the Treasurer) has forgotten where he
placed it. And also says that if a county
Treasurer wishes to speculate in public
money, all that is necessary is to learn the
rules of multiplication, addition, and divis
ion, and inform the State Treasurer. More
anon, from S. J. Fbain.

A GOOD SUGGESTION.
Equalizing the Wear and Tear of Public
Highways.
'Atlanta, August 15, 1873.
To the Editors of the Herald :
Gentlemen—Allow me to suggest to our
city fathers, through your valuable paper,
the propriety of placing common “wooden
horses” on the newly Macadamised streets
at a distance of fifty to one hundred yards
apart, in order to divert travel and equalize
the wear and tear thereof. This plan adopt
ed in other parts of the civilized world, may
be of advantage here.
Truly yours,
European.

ting before your readers the merils of our
grand old State, Georgia, her fine climate, ber
mineral springs, her beautiful scenery, her
native noblemen, her elegant, lovely daugh
ters; I wish to give you a glimpse of one of
her favored spots where are congregated all
of the above merits. I have reference to
the time-honored watering place, "The Indian
Spring.’' 1 For the information of the many
settlers in Georgia, I will give its locality. It
is situated in Butts county, sixteen miles
from Forsyth. You are transported from
Forsyth to the spring in afeommodions coach,
an open hack or close carriage, just as you
prefer, which nde but serves to give you an
appetite to relish the elegant fare which awaits
you at the Collier House. The proprietor of
this hotel ceitainly deserves credit for the
manner in which he entertains his guests,
situated as he is so remote from the railroad.
I cannot refrain here from paying special trib
ute to the gallantry of the junior pro
prietor, Mr. George Collier, who is ever j
on the qui five to enhance the com
fort and pleasure of his guest*. especially I
the ladies. The spring is situated about two
hundred yards from the Collier House. The
patn is a meandering one, over a limpid i
meek, through a beautiful forest grove, down
a gent e slope. Rustic seats of Dame Nature’s '
r.*n handiwork—moss covered rocks—are to j
be found all along the path, greatly to the re- j
lift of the wearied invalid. It is delightfully j
pleasant to stand upon one of the graceful .
little bridges spanning the creek, and listen
lo the music of the waters falling over the :
huge rocks interlining its bed. Nowand then 1
a flock of snowy white geese dart from behind j
a rock and float down the stream. The j
whole scenery ronnd and about tbe spring is ,
beautiful, picturesque and romantic.
Two creek., meet and mingle into one be
low the spring and go peacefully onward to
perform their mission, a beautiful emblem
and lesson for the lovers seated upon “Lov
er’s Rock" near by planning a union of hearts
and lives. The waters of the spring issue
from a fissure in a solid rock-mass in the side
of the hill, fall in a tiny pure stream into a
basin containing not more than a pint—
tins tbe waters of the spring are
ever pure and fresh. These waters are no
il mbtedly the strongest sulphur waters to be
found io this State. You can detect the odor
of sulphur several yards from the spring. I
have no doubt but that Atlantians, as well as ■■
the residents of sister cities and towns, are ! There is no one article known that will do so
deterred from visiting this charming spot jnuny kind* of work and do it as well as Sapo-
turongh fear of the climate, believing it to be " —
much warmer here than in their region. I
am an Atlantian, and cannot discover any
difference in the temperature—in fact, I be-
1 eve it is cooler. We are in the woods and
have pur,; country air.
The season here has been an unusually
gay one. There are three hotels here. Since j
the opening of the season there have been
Iro n one hundred to one hundred and f.!ty vis- )
itors all die time at tbe Collier House. Here
are to be fooud representative* from the elite |
circles of Macon, Augusta, Albany, Ameiicn«,
Griffin. Covington, burke county, etc. We
arc daily enlivened by delightful strains from
a skill ml string band. Just before the hour
of .lining, stiring merry strains arouse*
np to energy the pleasure awaiting the
palate. At the honr of ere, just when
daylight is merging into twilight,
low sweet, strains steal forth on the
air, affording inspiration and courage to the
love-stricken swains, who are uerionsly medi
tating a declaration “that very eve" to his
fair one. I have sang of the Hygean merits
of this watering place and of the beauty of its
surrounding scenery. Not being a patron of
Terpsichore I leave the brilliancy and eclat of
th, ball room to be portrayed by the more
gifted pen of your gallant and handsome
(so the girls say) representative, Mr.
jj , who, by the way is seriously
suffering from heart disease, but not too ae 1 -
nousiy,"however, to permit the .interests of
the IIekvu) to suffer at his bands. He is an
untiring and enthuzed advocate of the Hib-
ald; but I must desist. I trespass upon your
space.
To those of your readers who need the
healing properties of a strong snlpher wateT,
I say, come and test the efficacy of the
‘‘Indian Spring." To those who are eager
to sip Dot of the mineral enp but of the cup
of mirth and gaiety, I will say, that cup, full
to the brim, awaits them here. (
