a vrSrr. so "ran ASYLUM FOR
AGED AND DBCAYBD PUNBTERB.
Having-just returned front a visit to this
admirable Institution in company with a
friend who is one of the Directors, we pro-
pose giving a short account of what we saw
and heard. The great success of the Asy-
lum for Idiots and gFeebl'e-minded Youth,
several of the Scholars front which have
reached considerable distinction, one of them
being connected with a leading Daily Paper
in this city, and others having served in the
State and National Legislatures, was the mo:
tive which led tothe foundation» of - this ex-
cellent Charity; 'Our late ‘ distinguished
townsman, Noah Dow, Esquire, as is 1 well
known, bequeathed a large portion 3Of3his
fortune to this establish_ment,-f“_being there»
to moved," as his will expressed it, by the
desire of N. Baiting some‘Pubii'c‘ Institution
for the benefit ofmank-indg’l - Being; cOnsult-
ed as to the Rules ofjtbeInstitutiOn and, the
selection 'of a Superintendent," he replied,
that "all Boards must construct their own
Platforms of operation. Let ~them select
anyhow and he should be pleased." N. E.
Rowe, Esq., was chesen in compliance ,with
this delicate suggestion.
The-Charter provides for the support of
"One hundred‘a’ged' and decayed Gentlemen-
. Pnnsters." 1011 11111611in there was no pro.

On-eutering the main building, we saw the
Rules and Regulations for the Asylum con-
spicuously .po‘sted up. I made a few extracts
which may "be interesting.

The Superintendent, who went round with
us, had been a notedpunster in his time, and
well known in the business-world, but lost
his customers by making too free with
their names,+as in the famous story he set
afloat in ‘29 of four Jerri'a attaching to the
names of a noted Judge, an eminent-Lawyer.
the Secretary of the Board of Foreign 3113-.
sions, and the well-knowu Landlord ‘at
Springfield. One of the four Jern'es,’ be ad'- ‘
ded,wns of gigantic magnitude. The play on
words was brought. out by an accidental re-
mark of‘ Solomons,_-the well-known Banker.
“Capilalpum‘shment!” the J ”cw Was over-heard
saying, with reference=to the guilty parties.
He was tinderstood as saying, alt-capital! pm:
a want, which led- to an investigation and
the relief Of 'thegreatly excited‘publicimind.
The Superintendent showed some of his
old tendencies, as lie Won‘t round with us.
"Do you know"-he broke out all at once
~—why theyidon’t take stepper in Tartary fOr
establishing Insane Hospitals 1"
We both confessed ignorance.
"Because therefore nomad people to be
found there,” he .sit‘id,wit3h a'dignifled smile.
He proceeded reintroduce ,-us-;to;difi'erent
inmates. The first was a middleiagedpcholf-
arly man, who was seated ata‘table with a
Webster's Dictionary and a sheet bf, paper
before him. ,' - - , ’ .
“Well, what luck to-day, Mr. Mowzer f“
ii
~’ A“
“ ‘hree or four oulyIl‘ said Mr. Mowzcr.—
“Will you heur’em uow,—-now I'm here 2’“
We all nodded.
“Don't you see Webster ers in the words
centéi' and theater?
“If he spells leather let/fer, and feiitlierfelli-
er, isn’t there danger that he‘ll give us a bad
spell of waffle/'2’
“Besides, Webster is a resurrectiouist; he
he does not allow it to rest quielly in the
mould.
“And again because Mr. Worcester inserts
an illustration in his text, is flint any reason
why Mr. Webster‘s publishers should hitch
one on in their appendix? It‘s what I call a
Connect-moul- trick.
“Why is his way of spelling like the floor
of an oven? Because it. is under bread.
“ Mowzeri“ said the Superintendent,—
“that word is on the Index!“
“I forget," said Mr. )[owzer ;—“please
don‘t deprive me of 11172773; Fair, this one
time, Sir. ~
“These are all, this morning. Good dayv
Gentlemen. Then to the Superintendent,--
Add you, Sir !“
The next Inmate was a semi-idiotic look-f
ing old man. He had a heap of block-letters
before him, and, as we came-up, he pointed,
without saying a. word, to the arrangements
he had made with them on the table. They
were evidently-anagrams, and had the merit
of transposing the letters of the words em-
ployedfiiihdtttaddition or, subtraction. Here
are a few .Of them :—

The mention of several New York papers
led to two ortliree questions; Tliusz' Wheat-3,
er the Editor of the Tribune was H. G. many ‘3.
accounted , for by his being ‘an eager perv'
.sonbims‘ew? ’WhetherWendell.Tl'llips_were
not a-rcduced copy of John Ezwclm? Wheth‘.
er a New York Feuillofonisfo is not thesam
thing as a Foliage down East? .
At‘ this time a plausible-lacking,
mania-ad;
a part inlth‘e the Conversation. . j .. ,
“Good morning, Mr. Riggles," said the Sus
perititend‘ent..-" “4 ythingfresh this.morn-..3
lug? . AuyEConundrum 1‘".
“I_havc 3t looked at the cattle," he answer.
' ed, dryly.
“Cattle? Why cattle 1‘"
“Why, to see if there's any corn undor’am!"
he said; and immediately asked, “Why is
Douglas like the earth?“
7 We tried, but couldn’t guess.
Because he was flattened out at the polls
- said Mr. Riggles.
“A famous politician, formerly," said the
Superintendent. “His grandfather was a
wm-Hmmmbt in the Revolutionary War.—
By the way, I hear the freezeoi'l doctrines
dOn't go down at New Bedford.
The next Inmate looked as if he might
have been a sailor formerly.
“Ask him what his calling was,“ said the
Superintendent. ~
“Followed the sca,"llie replied to the ques-
tion put by one of us. “lVeut as mate in a
fishing-schooner.“
“Why did you give it up '3“
“Because I didn‘t. like working for two
mast-ers," he replied.
Presently we came upon a group of elder-
ly persons, gathered about a venerable. gen-
tleman with flowing locks who was pro-
pounding questions to a row of Inmates.
“Can any inmate give me a motto for M.
Berger 5'” he said.
Nobody responded for two or three min-
utes. At last one old man, who I at once re-
cognized as a Graduate of our University,
(Anno 1800,) held up his hand.
“Rem a cue tetigit."
“Go to the head of of the Class, Jossclyn,"
said the venerable Patriarch.
The successful Inmate did as he was told,
but in a very rough way, pushing against
two or three of the Class.
“How is this?" said the Patriarch:
, “You told me to go up jostlin‘,” he replied.
The old gentlemen who had been shoved
about enjoyed the Pun too much to be angry.
Presently the Patriarch asked again.
“Why was M. Berger authorized to go to
the dances given to the Prince 1"
The Class had to give tip this, and he an-
swered it himself :—
“Because every one of his carroms was a
til-Jeff to tbe'ball." .
“Who collects the money to defraytlie ex-
penses of the last' campaign in Italy 1'“ asked
the Patriarch. _
Here again the Class failed.
“The war-cloud's rolling Dun," be an-
. .swercd.
“And what is mulled wine made with i"
' ‘ Three or four voices exclaimed at once,—
“Slzzle-y Madeira !"
Here a servant entered, and said, "Lunch-
eon-time." , The old gentlemen, who have
excellent appetites, dispersed at once, one of
them politely asking us if we woul'd‘not stop
[n
and have a bit of bread and a little mite of
cheese.
“There is one thing i have forgotten to
.shmv you,” said the Superintendent,——“the
cell for the continent of violent and un-
manageable Punsters."
We were very curious to see it, particular-
ly with reference to the alleged absence of
every object upon which a play of words
could posibly be made. 3
The Superintendent led us tip some dark
stairs to a corridor, then along a narrow pits-
sage, then down a broad flight of steps into
,-another passage-way, and opened a large
door which looked out on the main entrance.
“We have not seen the cell for the contine-
‘ment of ‘violent and unmanageable” Pun-
sters," we both exclaimed.
“This is the sell!“ he exclaimed, pointing
to the outside prospect.
My friend, the Director, looked the in the
face so good-naturedly that I had to laugh.
“We like to humor the Inmates," he said.
“It has a bad effect, we find, on their health
and spirits to disappoint them of their little
pleasanfries. Some of the jests to which we
have listened are not new to me, though I
dare say you may not have heard from them
often before. The same thing happens in gen-
eral society, with this additional disadvan-
tage, that there is no punishment provided
for violent and ._ unmanageable‘ Punsters, as
in our Institution.“ «
We’made our how to the Superintendent and
walked to the place where our carriage was
waiting for us. On our way, an exceedingly
decrepit old man moved slowly towards us,
with a perfectly bland look on his face, but
still appearing as if he wished to speak.
“Look 1" said the Director,—“tbat is our
Centenarian."
The ancient mini crawled towards us, cock-
ed one eye, with which he seemed to see a
little, up at us, and said,—
' “Servant, young Gentlemen. Why is a—
a—a— like _a—-u—-a—? Give it up? Be-
cause it's a——-a—-a—-a—-.“
He smiled a pleasant sin
plain enough ,
“One hundred and seven last Christmas,"
said the Director. , “He lost. his answers
about the age of ninety-eight.- Of late years
‘he puts hiswhole Conundrums in blnnk,—-
but they. please him just as well."
We took-our,departure,much gratified and
' instructed ,by:oui;-visit.;b0ping to have some
future opportunity of inspectingthe Records
of this excellent Charit and making extracts
said the Superintendent.
