appeared that the total number of patients admitted during
that period was 13,932. Of these, 2,550 were in-patients, a

ROYAL MATERNITY CHARITY.--The half-yearly
general meeting of the governors of this charity was held
yesterday at the London Tavern ; Mr. William Cotton pre-
sided. The report of the committee stated that the large
amount of liabilities on Dec. 31, 1849, as exhibited in the
last annual report, had been discharged by means of the
spontaneous assistance of the friends of the institution, and
rigid economy in its management. The sum of 8771 16s. sd.
Reduced Annuities, being the residue of a legacy of 1,0001. left

property invested in the Long Annuities, and producing an-
nually 118/., should be sold, and the proceeds invested in
Consolidated Bank Annuities. The receipts of the charity

the expenditure to 1,673/. Os. 6d., leaving a balance in the I
