CITY Infirmary and Dispensary.-Th


~ directors Of this institution take great pleasure
announcing to its patrons and friends, that 1t 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
manner as to separate the several classes Of patients
VIZ: white and colored, male and female; and from
its position and regulations, profiers retirement and
privacy as far az can be wished.
Two resident physicians are in constant attend
anee, and the n6rmary is visited daily at ii 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-
tion to the nursing and comforts Of the sick.
Private patients may enter the lnfrmary under the
special care Of any of its directors, but other
wise will comply with the regulations Of the insttu-
ton.
In consequence Of the 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. .s5 per week.
First class OF patients. ..........4 do.
Second class. ...-.............3 do.
Cases OF mama potu ..... S. to $40 do.
In every instance the board must be paid weekly,
TO receive il, 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 in
sttuton 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 can 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 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 regre, to say, provision has
been made.
The infrmary will be open for visters daily in the
afternoon. DR.. THOMAS MILLER,
