ST. GEORGE'S HOSPITAL.

The distribution of honours in connexion with this
school of medicine took place in the board-room of the
institution yesterday, in the presence of a large number
of medical and other gentlemen, Dr. Wilson, senior
physician to the hospifal being in the chair.
In opening the proceedings of the day, the President
expressed his regret that the duties of the chair had not
devolved upon some gentleman more distinguished than
himself, and explained the circumstance which had
" pressed him into the service" on the present occasion
by alluding to the conclusion of the " London season,"
and consequently the absence of many of the friends of
the institution, who would have felt great pleasure in
filling the office. Dr. Wilson proceeded to speak of the
scholarships which had been founded by the lecturers,
with a view to encourage industrious habits on the part
of the pupil, and paid a tribute to those gentlemen of the
present and past years who had by their perseverance
attained these distinctions, and obsereed that the sum of
money thus appropriated annually was of considerable
amount. The following is a list of the successful can-
didates :
