He must begin a different mode of life, by breaking up former habits and associations; driving from the mind the old companions of an intemperate life; forming new thoughts, new ideas and new and better habits, which necessitates a new life in every respect.

This is the aim and object of the rules for the control and government of inebriates.

To assist in this work, inebriate institutions should have stated religious services, and all the patients and officers should be required to attend them, unless excused by the medical officer in charge, for sickness, or other sufficient cause." THE BINGHAMPTON ASYLUM.
Of all the inebriate asylums yet established, the one at Binghampton, New York, has been, so far, the most prominent.

It is here that a large part of the experimental work has been done; and here, we believe, that the best results have been obtained.

This asylum is a State Institution, and will accommodate one hundred and twenty patients.
