The Hospital Committee make this appeal to public benevolence
Snider circumstances of more than usual urgency.
It is now two years since the last festival.
During that time, while the prevalence of epidemic disease and
teneral distress has caused an increase in the number of patients, and
the cost of maintaining the charity has been further augmented by
kith prices of provisions, the Committee have proceeded with plans
for improving the accommodation for patients by an extension of the
betiding. They have thus incurred expenses and liabilities to a large
amount.

A.r;erved fund-,ef upwards of 5,0001. has been exhausted, and a
't of 1,5001. contracted. For some time past the Hospital has been
dependent for its maintenance on a loan from -the Treasurer.

or extending its benefits as widely as possible, the clergymen.

Of▪ the annual cost of maintaining the charity on its present footing
ii-',lety is contributed by the Medical School of University College,
Cut 2,508/. being annually paid over by the Council to the Hospital
Trikraittee as the amount of students' fees for clinical instruction.

expen se of supporting the occupants of 50 additional beds is es-
„,°`mted at 1,500/. Them umber of beds which the hospital is now

The number of patients was last year 18,794, of whom 1,403 were

111 weave a rhyme for Easter time,
That holiday of spring ;
When flags display their colours gay,
And merry changes ring*.
hail, Easter, hail l Thy joys prevail,
Wherever we may turn ;
Thy hours give birth to scenes of mirth.
Which none but stoics spurn.
The busy fair, where crowds repair,
Or animated park,
lies ever been a cheerful scene,
Which thousands gladly mark.
'Tie there we view the dresses new,
From MOSES' noted Mart ;
Unhatched attire, which WI admire,
As elegantly smart.
MOSES and SON have ever won
The highest approbation
For Easter dress, which all confess,
Unequalled in the nation.

These garments prime, for Easter time,
Clalrn fashion's palm for MOSES ;
And all admire the choice attire
Which such such a Mart discloses.
