SEAMEN'S HOSPITAL-SHIP.

Among the various Charities that do honour to the
City and Port of London, the Seamen's Hospital-
Ship in the River Thames should not be overlooked.
This beneficial Institution arose out of the subscrip-
tion made in the winter of 1817-1818, for the relief'
of those distressed and destitute Seamen, who, at
that time, were in such numbers in the streets of the'
metropolis. The Committee for managing the funds
of that subscription having ascertained, by sad expe-
perience, " that there are, in the course of the year,
many hundred seamen in the Port of London desti-
tute of medical or surgical aid," and having recom-
mended, upon closing that establishment, that a per-
manent Hospital should be provided, for the purpose
of administering to their relief, a Public Meeting
was held at the City of London Tavern, at which it
was resolved, that a Permanent Floating Hospital
should be established on the River Thames ; and a
Committee was appointed for the promotion and
management of the interests and concerns of the Cha-
rity. The Committee have, since that period, been
constantly employed in carrying into effect the bene-
volent intentions of the contributors; the Grampus
(a two-decker, liberally presented by his Majesty's
Government, and most completely fitted for the ex-
press purpose at the King'? Dock-yard, Deptford),
began to receive patients on the '2sth of October fol-
lowing. The whole establishment is placed precisely
on the footing of other hospitals, with a. Superintend-
ant, Surgeon, Visiting. Physicians, Chaplain, &c. The
ship is moored opposite Greenwich, the most central
and eligible situation which could be found for a ship
of that size. Every sick seaman is received on pre-
senting himself alongside, without the ceremony or
necessity of any recommendation ; and all accidents
occurring on the River are immediately attended to;
in furtherance of which object, the Royal Humane
Society has presented a complete apparatus for the
recovery of suspended animation, which is kept in
constant readiness.
