Loci HosiTraL. —The 112th anniversary of this
institution was celebrated yesterday at Willis's Rooms, St.
James's, when a large number of the friends of the charity
sat down to an excellent dinner, which was presided over
by his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, who wag
supported on the occasion by the Hon. Arthur Kinnaird,
Colionel Edwardes, C. 8., Henry Havelock, Colonel
Norman, Major Powys, General Law, Colonel F. Halliday
Lord Hay Camden, Br. Roberts, ka After the meal
Mesta, his royal highness proposed " Prosperity tot!
Lock Hospital and Asylum." He observed that pecu-
liar nature of the disease which this institution was de-
signed to mitigate, rendered the advocacy of such an
institution somewhat difficult ; but as the disease itself
was an evil incident to humanity, no feeling of delicacy
o_tiliLito deter them from endeavouring to ameliorate its
ty, though science may fail, and the teachings of
=ty, may be ineffectual, utterly to eradicate it from the
human system. The degree of IM000•1 which had attended
the Old Lock Hospital had induced the governors to found
• separate estahlishment for male patients in some central
. situation in the west of London, and to devote the
present building in the Harrow-road solely to the
reception of the female patients, infants, and in-
' mates of the asylum. It must be obvious that
the female department could be conducted more efficiently
when the entire grounds and premises were appropriated to
its particular requirements. But this would need funds,
and he hoped they would not be wanting. There was
one peculiar feature belonging to this institution which
strongly recommended it to the consideration of those who
while relieving the sufferer, would reform the sinner. The
reformatory branch of the institution had been lately
marked with a decided success. But while contemplating
with pity the lot .of those who, by their own failings,
L had brought upon themselves the scourge from which they
were suffering, it should not be overlooked that there were
numerous instances in which the innocent had to bear the
iniquities of others. (Cheers.) The Hon. A. Kinnaird,
, the treasurer, in returning thanks on his health having been
drunk said, that as a school of medicine the Look Hospital
for male patients would afford to students an °ppar.
tunity of attending. lectures and studying disuses The
great good the institution
shad effected during the
, long period it had been established was unquestionable.
, The total number of patients admitted into the hospital
from January, 1747, to December, 1859, was 83,690 ; and
the number admitted into the asylum during that period
was 1,59(4 of whom 314 were restored to their friends, 409
were placed in respectable service, arid 24 died ; 397 patients
—2lB male end 179 females—hod been received into the
hospital during the year. The bon. gentleman concluded
with an earnest appeal for support to the funds, in order
that the object of the governors might be efficiently carried
out. The appeal was not in vain, for before the company
retired upwards of 700/. was contributed to the funds of the
institution. The musical arrangements were under the
direction of Mr. Ransford, assisted by Miss Wells and Mr.
Young sad the duties of toastmaster were efficiently dia.

Tat KW. BRYAN green.—An address of sym-
pathy, numerously signed by undergraduates of Oxford, was
presented last week to the Rev. Bryan King, and received from
him the following reply :—" My dear Brethren in the Bond
of the Church,—l cannot express to you the deep gratifica-
tion which I have received from the address of sympathy
which has just been presented to me. Assailed on all sides
bl misrepresentation, and the victim of treatment which
in all its bitterness I humbly trust ia not wholly deserved,
it is a subject of grateful thankfulness to me to find that
some other feelings find a place in the generous hearts of so
many undergraduates of that university to which I owe so
very, very much. May the one great Head of the Church
give as all grace ever to be ready both to labour and to
suffer for His dear name's rake. Relieve me, ever yours
most sincerely and affectionately in Him, Barrie
Guardian.
