This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free
and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of eovernors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tution in its most pitiable form—viz., that which is accom-
penied by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient
magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered
capable of admitting into its wards a very large proportion of
the casual sick of this great metropolis. It requires but the
funds in order to have 500 beds available for the reception of
these the most wretched of our fellow-creatures. Moreover,
it gratuitously affords medical advice and medicine to more,
on the average, than 3,000 out-patients a week.
The Weekly Board feel it their imperative duty to make an
EARNEST APPEAL to the public for ntinued support,
to enable them to admit and relieve the distressing cases that
daily present themselves.
Contributions are received by the Treasurer, Edward
Mae ferman, Esq. Nicholas-lane; also by Messrs. Coutts and
Co. ; Drummond' and Co. ; Herries and Co. ; Ransom and
Co.; Prescott Grote, and Co.; Smith, Payne, and Co. ; Glyn

The Committee of Management have to state that, since
of te ear 18, the Roal. National Lifeoat Institution has expended £32,000 on various Lifeboat Estbab-
lishments on the Coasts of England. Scotland, and Ireland.
The number of lives saved by the Life-boats of the
Society, end other means, since its formation, is 12,800;
for which services 82 Gold Medals, 718 Silver Medals, and
£16,480 in cash have been paid in rewards. The Institu-
tion has also expended £67,000 on Life-boats, Life-boat
Transporting-earl rages, and Boat-houses.
The Committee desire to express their grateful sense of
the generous support which they have received from the
British public during the past few years, a support which
has enabled them to establish their present magnificent fleet
of 123 Lifeboats on the shores of the United Kingdom.
Deeply sensible, however, of the great responsibility that
rests on them to maintain their fleet in a thoroughly efficient
state, and i's Crews practised in the management of their
boats, whiqi can only be effected by a large 'and pe:manent
annual income, they earnestly appeal to all classes of their
countrymen to aid them in upholdincr and perpetuating so
'rhe Committee grate i
great and trulynationnfluia work.
