But the number and their propurtion to the popalution cannot be’ ascer, tained with any satisfactory degree of accuracy. The census statistics : are untrustworthy, both from the different standards adopted by enum. erators, and frem the difficulty of persuading parents, from whom the their children are idiots. Some of the worst cases in idiotasylums were brought there by their friends, not as idiots, but as being 4 little peeu.iar.in_their habits.

[S The number of idiots in the Uni=. ted States, according to the census of 1870, was 24,527, of whom 14,485 were colered, and 1,645 foreizn born. But the number and their propurtion to the popalution cannot be’ ascer, tained with any satisfactory degree of accuracy. The census statistics : are untrustworthy, both from the different standards adopted by enum. erators, and frem the difficulty of persuading parents, from whom the their children are idiots. Some of the worst cases in idiotasylums were brought there by their friends, not as idiots, but as being 4 little peeu..iar.in_their habits.

So far as these returns go, however, they show a mich greater prevalenee ef idiocy ~ than bas beep commonly supposed; aud it is pow generally coneeded by competent judges that the number of-idiots is greater than that of the deaf and dumb or the blind, and as great as that of the insane, the proportiou\being nut less than one in ‘one thovsand of the population.
