CITY Innrmary and Dispensary.-Th

CITY Infirmary and Dispensary.-The
~ directors of this institution take great pleasure
in announcing to its patrons and friends, that has
undergone many material alterations and improve
ments calculated to add to the comforts of the pa
tents. The inhrmary has been divided in such
viz: white and colored, male and female; and, from
its position and regulations, proters retirement and
privacy far - can be wished. 90.
Two resident physicians are in constant attend
anee, and the nfrmary s visited daily at III o'clock,
a m, by the attending physician and surgeon, who
also devote as much time is necessary for pre-
scriptions operations and dispensing of medicines
for all such dispensary patients may be in wait
ing. Besides these attendants, the directors have
been fortunate in securing the services Of the SIS
TIERS OF CHARITY who reside in the infrmary,
conduct its affairs, and give their undivided stten
ZION TO the nursing and comforts Of the sick.
Private patients may enter the nhrmary under the
special care Of any Of its directors, but other
wise will comply with the regulations of the institu-
uon. So. .. .nH.
In consequence of the heavy expenses incurred by
the directors in making the arrangements, they are
under the necessity Of charging patients according TO
the following schedule, viz
Private patients. IS per week.
First class OF patients. ..........A do.
Second class. ...................3 do.
Cases Of mania potu. .....s5 to $40 do.
In every msthuCc tne DodIu musl DC palu weekly,
in advance TO the sister superior, who is authorized
to receive it, security for its payment must be
given the security being responsible citizen of this
District.
1t is to be regretted that the directors have been
unable to carry into effect the great design Of this
stitution, as from the heavy expenses incurred they
cannot extend their charities to the poor as far as
they could wish Thus far the receipts from patients
have not met the current expenses hence but few
charity patients have been or can be received unless
aid be given by corporation and citizens. 1t is
gratifying however, to the directors to have had it
In their power serve the cause of humanity through
their dispensary arrangement, by which hundreds
of poor, sick, and disabled have had dispensed to
them medicines, with medical and surgical advice.
All classes of diseases will be admitted into the
infrmary, except smallpox and maniacs. For
these, the directors regret to say, no provision has
been made.
The infrmary will be open for visers daily in the
afternoon. DR.. THOMAS MILLER,

Of rupture, hernia, suitable to all sizes and ages,
for men, women, and children. ..
This truss has the superiority of any heretofore

lness the rupture pad Icing of glass, lin any
shape or form,) the adjustments Of the springs to
suit the action of the body, and calculated TO be
fitted to either side. The rupture pad (glass) has
double motion: first, by revolving on its own
axis second, by the lever to which it is attached,
and where said lever is connected to the main
spring The superiority which this truss has over
others is obvious in this that it is most efectual in
retaining the parts in their proper place, and ma
king due pressure; it is always clean its shape or
form is durable, which in stuffed pads is not the
case, las they become saturated with the fluids
