^† Without a careful personal inspection of the Asylum at Earlswood, it would be difficult for any one who knew the idiot children only as they are in the wards of the County Lunatic Asylums to realise what the system of educational treatment, there so skilfully elaborated by Br. Langdon Bowne, can accomplish. Nothing can be more painful than the sight of these unfortunate children, listless and unoccupied, in the wards of a lunatic asylum; nothing, I think, can afford more gratification to any one interested in the advancement of civilisation than a visit to the idiot children at Earlswood. There is no similar institution-similar, I mean, in its successful treatment of the idiot-in any part of the continent of Europe. When the movement now begun by the Commissioners in Lunacy to provide proper treatment for the idiot paupers throughout England tomes to be carried out, Dr. Bourne's work at Earlswood will assuredly be the standard for us to copy from.-C.
