Messrs. A. W. BROCKWAY, J. R. GODWIN and Austin MILLER, the building committee for the Insane Asylum, were met here yesterday by about 8 or 10 architects, all of whom visited the site selected for that institution. The gentlemen seemed very much pleased with the surroundings and expressed themselves as delighted with the site. The grounds were carefully inspected and it was determined that the Asylum building should be located upon the site of the Jones residence, to front north-east. It is understood that an Architect well selected by the building committee at this time, but it had not been done at the time of going to press.
