Dr. MOOltilLeD, in seconding, felt assured the interest
of the ladies in the welfare of the Sanatorium was
unabated, and he was encouraged to believe their aid
would be continued so that the institution might rise to.
Mal Mew degree of usettilaess and prosperity. (Hew,
hear.)
The resolution was cordially adopted.
Kr. R. H. ELIOT reminded them ot • remark made by a
historian—that • good reiga vu always devoid of

They had adopted • vote of thanks to Dr. Smith, and

for though his servioes were secondary to them of Dr.

Colonel armada seconded, and the resolution was cor-
dially adopted.
Dr. MOOLZZAD heartily thanked those present for the
cordial meaner in which they had received the resolution,
and also the gentlemen who had proposed and seconded it
for the complimentary terms in which they had brought
it before the meeting. While he felt unworthy of the
encomium' bestowed upon him be might, however, swore
them he had always had greet mtbdaction in giving his
services to the Sanatorium, knowing as he did what an
Invaluable boon it conferred in this district upon the
peculiar class of admen who need its aid, Although
it could not now be truly riches it was in Homeric days,

A kind physician, skilled our wounds to heal,

Yet it would. he thought, be readily admitted that the
medical
_prof 'aeon never stood higher in public estimation
than it doss in the present day. The Important
which it renders to the State both in the military and
, civil departmenta was universally reoogniood. but while
curative wag undoubtedly subordinate in importance to
preventive mediclue,and rarely attained national honours,
, it woe not, however, without its reward. Those who were
It, representatives is that humble sphere of labour knew
well that many of the inmates of the Sanatorium, though
their memory would be perpetuated by no "storied urn
or animated had cherished towards them feeliugs
of the liveliest gratitude for benefits received under Pro-
vidence through their instrumentelity. When to this was
added the satisfaction of knowing that they had discharged
their duties in such a 1:11.1.1111W as to secure the approbation
of the numerous subscribers and friends of that instltution,
they must feel that they had indeed been • imply rewarded.
Dr. Moorhead then remarked that at the last anniversary
, he took occasion to refer to the general progress of medical
; and surgical science He would now take the liberty of
, stating that in no branch of this science had the edemas
been more marked than in that to welch the Sanatorium
I was stieciolir dedicated—namely. gYeamology. It would,
he was sure, be gratifying to their patriotism to learn that
• the world was mainly indebted for that progress to the
sk iII and enterprise of British surgery. Of all the ilium otte

from lingering disease and death. and was now justly
regarded AY one of the legitimate operations of modern
surgery. This was mentioned In order to show the import-
ance of speciation in medicine—a principle represented by
the Sanatorium, and one so well calculated to confer the
, highest degree of benefit upon suffering humanity. Dr.
. Moorhead concluded by again thanking the audience, not
only for the kind reception given the resoluta)°, but for
the patient indulgence with which they had listened to his
remarks. Applause)
T6ll Rev. T. W. WILKINSON reed the resolution that had
been entrusted to him —'Thai the best thank, of the
meeting be given to the tastes* and committee of maoaite-
mina, and that they be requested to continue their
services for the ensuing year." Br asking them to
continue their services the resolution expressed a you of
confidence in the committee of management. It was an
Immense privilege to him as a country parson in Wey-

meeting, and he could not Male saying in Justice to Dr.
