Extract

The particulars of the new Acts relative to the care and treatment of lunatics will probably be before the public at the time of the appearance of this number of the Journal. The proposed Act affecting Chancery lunatics has already appeared, and requires no particular comment. It is to be hoped, however, that the enormous expense attendant on opposed commissions may be diminished. The absurd reference of one of the most delicate and difficult of metaphysical questions to a jury will still, no doubt, prevail.
