• 11011197•L.—Ths Int annual meeting of the Dispeinary
took plass on Tuesday evening, in the Cowesli chamber
at the Town-ball, and was very thinly attended. J.
Collo', Esq., presided, and In opening the emending'
expressed his regret that the meeting was so small. Re
did not think it arose from any indifference to the di,.
peniwry, but because the subecriber. had great cont.
denote in the committee, for the inhabitants of the teen
had most lib,-rally come fcrward with their dowitions
and aubscriptiom to the institution. It was now more
than a year ago since they had met in that room to
inaugurate the society and par its rules. Daring the
past year much work had been done, and • great
deal of good to the poor and needy had ensiled
in consequence of the efforts that had been
made. Re thought more real wash bad been
been done than in some institutions which perhaps hes
been more talked about, but it had been deny by very
few hands, viz., by the medical men aed diapeseere.
who bed 30 kindly given their gratuitous services. A
letter from the Rev. R. L. Carpenter' who wm
unavoidably absent, had been received addivesed to Me
chairman of the meeting, which be read; in it the writer
spoke of the good the dispenuary had don* among the
poor, who were very grateful for it: he thought this
establishment of a cottage hospital would be very
beneficial and suggested that one be formed, end if
it was done the nune who should be appointed to.
attend to it should go net and visit the poor when not
wanted at the hospital: he considered the diatom in
the town made it more desirable that • hospital should
be provided. Mr. Collo: then moved the adoption of
she report, which we gave in last week's impotence, and
said he thought one omission in it bad been made,
which was doubtless owing to one of the medical
ocenu being the aserstiu7 of the instiintion, and that
was that while the dispensers had been thanked for
their gratuitous serviees, no mention had bomt mad* of
the in.-diced officers. —Mr. Williams seemeded the
adoption of the report, and it was oarried.—Mr. J. T.
Stephens proposed, and Mr. Brown emooded,fthat
Messrs. B. P. laundry. W. Houneell, and Herbert
Hoariest!, whose term of office, as members of the mai.
mine* had expired, he reelected, which was tarried.
—Mr. W. Colton then proposed that the oommittoi be
empowered to take slept towards founding a hospital in
connection with the dispensary. They had £lOO in the
Bavinge bank, end he believed tbet sum mold be in-
cowed by £4O promised lard year, but not yet oaileeiod.
That would suffice to Mart the hospital, but
subscriptions would be rapaired to maintain
—Mr. MVYIS, the secretary. said • cottage hospital, twits
throe bad', would itself awl little sheet of MOO a year.
—Mr. W. Colfax saggestel that some ansegement
might be made for transferring Mrs. Lea's endowment
fund from the Industrial 'shoal, about to be closed, to
the proposed hospital, and that would predate about
ff:so a year. A convereatice mewed, and, oaths sugges-
tion of Mr. Williams, the prop/ninon was withdrawn,
and • resolution pasted for milling • mowing of the sub-
scribers nest Monday, to consider the proposal The
medical officers were thanked for their kind and
gratuitous services. A vote of thanks to the Chairman.
dosed the proceedings.
