For these and other Life-boat services the Institution hau
voted £2,158 as rewards to the crews of its Lifeboats. It has
also granted rewards amounting to £572 for saving 562
hipwrecked persons, by shore-boats and other means. mak-
ing a total of 1,302 persons saved from a watery grave during
the last two years and a half.
The number of lives saved by the Life-boats of the
Society, and other means, since its formation, is 12,690
for which services 82 Gold Medals, 713 Silver Medals, and
.£16,000 in cash have been paid in rewards. The Institu-
tion has also expended £64,300 on Life-boats, Life-boat
Transporting-cart iages, and Boat-houses.
The public cannot but sympathise with the vigorousefforts
now being made by this Institution to save the lives of Ship-
wrecked Crews. Their help was never more needed than at
'he present time, when, through the extraordinary exertions
'he Society has made within the past few years, it has now
One Hundred and Twenty-three Life-boats under its man-
agement, tor the maintenance of which, in a state of thorough
efficiency, a large permanent annual income is absolutely
needed, if its humane mission is to be perpetuated.
The Committee gratefully acknowledge the following con-

ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road,
in the immediate vicinity of the Great Northern Rail-
way Terminus, at King's-eross.
Patron—The QUEEN.
President—The Duke of BUCCLEUCEti
Treasurer—E,4 ward Masterinall, Esq.
This was the first 'hospital to introduce the principle of free
and instant atnission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of governors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tutior, in its most pitiable form—Viz., that which is &mom-
-I,l7.nied by Sickness and disease, and is now of suitcient
magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered
the
Capa
casual tickble of admitting into its wards a very large proportion of
of this great metropolis. It requires but the
funds in order to have 00 beds available for the reception of
these the most Wretched of our fellow-creatures. Mcreover,
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 support,
to enable them to Admit and relieve the distressing Cases that
daily present themselves.

Masierman, Esq., Nicholas-lane; also by Messrs. Coutts and
