Our thanks are due to the Editors and Proprietors of the following newspapers, which have been sent to the Asylum gratuitously:

Wolverine Citizen, published at Flint.

Lansing State Republican, published at Lansing,
Michigan Argus, published at Ann Arbor.

Our thanks are due to the Superintendents of the Michigan Central, and the Detroit and Milwaukee Railroads for having granted free tickets to our pupils when going to or returning from the Asylum, and for the prompt and gentlemanly manner in which the favor has been bestowed.

We acknowledge the receipt of some valuable pictures—a very beautiful and appropriate present from Dr. E. H. Van Deusen, Superintendent for the Michigan Asylum for the Insane.

TERMS OF ADMISSION.

The Asylum is free to all the Deaf and Dumb and the Blind in Michigan, between the ages of ten and thirty years, who possess a good natural intellect, a good moral character, and have no contagious disease. All such are entitled to an education, without charge for board or tuition.

Parents or guardians provide clothing for pupils, and pay their traveling expenses.

The regular time for admission is at the close of the vacation, which extends from the fifteenth of July to the first Wednesday of October. Pupils will not be received at other times, except in extraordinary cases.

Persons wishing to place pupils in the Asylum, should address the Principal, stating the name, age and residence of such pupil. No certificate of any kind is required.

Pupils' clothing must be marked with durable ink.

Those persons bringing pupils to, or taking them away, cannot be furnished board, lodging or horse-keeping, at the Asylum. No person of imbecile or unsound mind, or of confirmed immoral character, will be knowingly received into the Asylum; and in case any person shall, after a fair trial, prove incompetent for useful instruction, or disobedient to the wholesome regulations of the Institution, such pupil will be thereupon discharged,

It is important that all of the pupils of each year should be present at the commencement of the school session, and remain until its close. This will therefore be expected of them unless prevented by sickness or other emergency. In case of non compliance with this rule on the part of any pupil without a sufficient reason, his or her right to the privileges of the Institution, will, at the discretion of the Principal, be forfeited.
