TITY Infirmary and Dispensary.-Th

~ directors of this institution take great pleasure
in announcing to its patrons and friends, that Il has
undergone many material alterations and improve
ments calculated to add to the comforts Of the pa
TENTS. The lnhrmary has been divided in such
manner separate the several classes of PATIENTS
VIZ: white and colored, male and female; and, from
its position and regulations, profiers retirement and
privacy far can be wished.
Two resident physicians are IN constant attend
ance and the n6rmary il visited daily at / O'clock
a m, by the attending physician and surgeon, who
also devote much time as Is necessary for pre-
scriptions operations, and dispensing of medicines
for all such dspensary patients as 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 atten-
| ton to the nursing and comforts of the sick.
Private patients may enter the inhrmary under the
special of any one of its directors, but other
wise will comply with the regulations of the institu-
| ton.
In consequence of tae heavy ex penses incurred by
the directors in making the arrangements, they are
under the necessity of charging patients according to
the following schedule, viz:
Private patients. s. per week.
| First class OF patients. ...........4 do.
| second class. ....-.. ............3 40.
Cases of mania potu. SIS to SO do.
In every instance the board must be paid weekly,
in advance the sister superior, who is authorized
to receive it, or 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 carry into effect the great design of this
stitution, as from the heavy expenses incurred, they
cannot extend their charities to the poor far as
they could wish. Thus far the receipts from patients
have not met the current expenses hence but few
charity patients have been be received unless
aid be given by our corporation and citizens. 1t is
gratifying however, to the directors to have had it
in their power to the 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 manacs. For
these, the directors regret to say, no provision has
been made.
The infrmary will be open for vsters daily in the
afternoon. DR.. THOMAS MILLER,
