ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road,
in the immediate vicinity of the Great Northern Rail-
way Terminus, at Ring's-cross.

Patron—The QUEEN.
President—The Duke of BUCCLEUCII, K.G.
Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq.
This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free
and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of governors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tution in its most pitiable form—ylz., that which is aecom-
pulled 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 hoard feel it their imperative duty to make an
EARNEST APPEAL to the public for continued suppert,
to enable them to admit and relieve the distressing cases that
daily present themselves.
Contributions are received by the Treasurer, Edward
Marerman, Esq., Nicholas-lane; also by Messrs. Coutts and
Co.
Co. ; ; Drummond arid Co. Co.; 'Terries and Co. ; Hansom and

The town of Zug (Switzerland) was visited lest
week by a violent thunderstorm, accompanied by a
heavy fall of hail, most unusual there at this season of the
year. Just as the fury of the storm way beginning to sub-
side, the lightning struck the tower called the Zeilthurm,
standing ii. the middle of the town, and the roof was im-
mediately in a blaze. Apprehensions were at first enter-
tained that the conflagration would extend to the neigh-
bouring edifices ; but, thanks to the efforts of the firemen,
the damage was limited to the roof of the tower.
Advices from Venice state that the authorities
have done
of the Grand everything in their power to secure the opening
Fenice Theatre. The shareholders met a
few days since to take the subject into consideration ; but,
in spite of warm addresses irom the authorities, and among
others from M. Calvi, representing the Prefecture of Fi-
nance, the motion was rejected by 45 Votes to 9,
