CIrY Infirmary and Dispensary.-The
~ directors of this institution take great pleasure
in announcing to its patrons and friends that It has
undergone many material alterations and improve
ments calculated 10 add to the comforts Of the pa
TENTS. The Intimacy has been divided in such
VIZ: white and colored, male and female and from
its position and regulations, profers retirement and
privacy as fer 40 can he wished.
Two resident physicians are in constant attend
ance, and the nhrmary ia visited daily at III o'clock,
a m, by the attending physician and surgeon, who
also devote as much time as is necessary for pre-
scriptions operations, and dispensing Of medicines
for all such dispensary patients NAV be in wait
ing. Besides these attendants, the directors have
been fortunate in securing the services OF the SIS
TERS OF CHARITY, who reside in the nfrmary,
conduct its sfairs, and give their undivided atten
non to the nursing and comforts Of the sick
Private patients may enter the inhrmsry under the
special care Of any one of its directors, but other
wise will comply with the regulations of the insu-
ton.
In consequences Of the heavy expenses incurred by
the directors in making the arrangements, they
under the necessity of charging patients according
the following schedule, viz: .........,..
Private patients. :.'............So per week.
First class of patients. ...........4 do.
Second class. ....-.............5 do.
Cases of mania potu ..-.. IS to $40 do.
In every instance the board must be paid weekly,
in advance, to the sister superior who ia 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 to carry INTO effect the great design of this
stitution as from the heavy expenses incurred they
cannot extend their charities 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 can be received unless
aid be given by corporation and citizens It is
gratifying however, to the directors to have had it
In their power 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 maniacs For
these, the directors regret to say, no provision has
been made. r .nH'a .t. .
