State Of Affairs

Some months ago, in an article on “Colonial Lunacy Boards,” [in the number of the “Edinburgh Medical Journal” for March, 1872,] I had occasion to announce that the New Zealand Government had put upon paper certain “Resolutions”1 regarding Lunacy-Reform in the Colony, including a proposal forthwith to appoint at least one Commissioner in Lunacy, who should act as adviser to Government in all Lunacy matters, as well as supervise all the Lunatic Asylums of the Colony. I expressed a fear that the intentions apparently embodied in the said resolutions were “too good news to be true,” and that they would prove but formal suggestions—to be laid upon the table of the House of Assembly, there to remain [shelved] for an indefinite period, just as similar proposals for Lunacy Reform have been treated in the sister colony of New South Wales. Unfortunately for the insane, and for the Lunatic Hospitals, of New Zealand, my surmises have proved to be only too correct —my fears only too well founded. By the August mail (1872) I received two letters from tne Honourable Dr. Buchanan, of Dunedin, Member of the Legislative Council, and mover of the Parliamentary Resolutions above referred to.2 That the proposals which these resolutions contained, have not yet been adopted, is certainly no fault of his; for of his hearty interest and honest intention in the matter there can be no question. In his letters he gives the following most unsatisfactory account of the present state of affairs in New Zealand in regard to Lunacy Progress or Reform—a state of affairs which I quite agree with him in considering discreditable and disgraceful to its reputation as a British Colony!

The observations, of which the results are here given, were made by Mr. Dunlop in the open air, with a 9-feet reflecting telescope, having the clear aperture of the large mirror 9 inches, and fitted up as a meridian telescope; the position of which, and the index error, being ascertained by the passage of known stars. The drawings which accompany the paper were made at the time of observation of the appearances of a great number of nebulæ and clusters, and particularly of the nebulæ major and minor. The paper contains a catalogue and description of 629 nebulæ, arranged in the order of their south polar distance, and in zones for each degree in the order of their right ascension. A few observations are subjoined, describing more particularly the appearance of the nebula minor, which, seen through the telescope, resembles one of the brighter portions of the milky way; of the nebula major, which is brighter, more irregular, and composed of a great number of different parts; and of the dark space on the east side of the cross, or the black cloud, as it is called, which is occasioned by the almost total absence of stars. It is remarked by the author, that neither of the two nebulæ, major and minor, are at present in the place assigned to them by La Caille. He finds also that scarcely any nebulæ exist in a high state of condensation, and very few even in a state of moderate condensation towards the centre. Some have bright points in or near the centre, many of which may be stars; but the greater number of the nebulæ appear only as condensations of the general nebulous matter into faint nebulæ of various forms and magnitudes, generally not well defined; while many of the larger nebulous appearances are resolvable into stars of small magnitudes. But whether nebulæ are universally thus resolvable, is a question of which our instruments are yet incompetent to afford a direct solution, and in the discussion of which we have only analogy as our guide.
