IVERPOOL DISPENSARIES.—The COM-
A MITTEE of the LIVERPOOL DISPENSARIES beg to
- acknowledge the following DONATIONS towards Liquidating the
present heavy Debt of the Charity, and earnestly to Appeal to the
Public for Support. In consequence of Cholera, of a most viru-
lent and fatal character, having visited the Town last year, the
operations of the Institution were most arduous and extensive.
The number of Cases attended and supplied with Medicine was
40,732, exceeding those of the previous year by 5,318. From
various causes the expenses were unavoidably augmented, whilst,
concurrently with the increased expenditure, and the debt re-
maining from the previous year, the Income suffered diminution
to the extent of upwards of £6OO. NEW SUBSCRIPTIONS are
urgently Solicited, as the present Amount falls considerably short
of the Annual Expenditure. If this Inadequate Support and
Pressure of Debt be suffered to continue, there will be no alterna-
tive but to limit the operations of the Charity. The Committee
earnestly hope that an institution which has been in existence
nearly Eighty Years, and which affords Aid Annually to thou-
sands of the suffering Poor, thereby arresting Misery and
Disease to a vast extent, will plead eloquently in its behalf, and
he responded to by their Fellow-townsmen with ready Sympathy
and Support. JONATHAN BROOKS, President.
