GREAT NOSTIISHN HOSPITAL

Yesterday and the day preceding, s fancy bazaar
was held at Myddeltoo Hall, Islamise, in aid of the fund@ of
the Great Northern Hospital, under the patronage or the
Duchies of Argyle, the Constar of Derby, Viseoaster
Sydney, Lady Chaelthe Harrhegtes, lady Cherlothi Theism,
Lady Domes, the Batemes Lintel de Rothschild, Lady
Peto, and other distinguished patronage. There was an
excellent colleetioa of tasty week in the hall but it is to be
regretted that the sale Ins not so active as it' ought to have
been comidering the charitable object for which the bazaar
was got up._ It appears that the promisee lately occupied as
the hospital were required by the Metropohtsa Railway
Company, and each an amount of compensation received as
nearly sod to pay off the debt and set the hospital
freemen all liabilibse. Gorier theme circumstances, the want
of se hospital in this locality being admitted, it wee
resolvedsit a meeting prodded over by Mr. .Ida. the
moisten* judge at the Middlesex Sessions, to purchase or to
rent a ite for the erection of a new laspital—pkin, but
substantial and commodious. It was deemed modest to I
primed padaelly, end that oo more should be dose at pris
seat than to provide accommodation for about 50 in-
patients. The estimate of the cost of such • building
would be shout 4,0001. There is no part of the metropolis
more regally extending in population than the district
around 6.'earous. In addition to the Metropolitan
Cattltsmarket, sad numerous factories in its immediate
vicinity, Rises-cross i. likely to become a most im-
portant railway station, and yet from this point
northward there was oo district in the metropolis so
ill-provided with hospital accommodation, until the rata.
bliehment of the Great Northern Ethiopi in 1856. Since
its foundation the hospital afforded relief in more than
300,000 cases of sicknem and casualty, and the attendance
of oat-patients averages 1,000 weekly. At present the out-
maestri are attended to in a temporary building in the Pen-
tonville-read, which has beta kindly plead at the disposal
of the =wagers by the Metropolitan Railway Company, and
the iv-patients are received in a building in the Portland road.
The managers are naturally anxious to escape as moo as pos.
Mile from this inconvenient and umatafectory position, and
with thin view the bazaar at Myddelton-hail wee got up. It is
to be hoped that in some other form the charitable views of
the preenetere will receive more support than they have
dose se the present occasion.
