TITY Inhrmary and Dispensary.-The
~ directors Of thus 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 infrmary has been divided in such
to separate the several classes Of PATIENTS
viz: white and colored, male and female; and from
its position and regulations, proers retirement and
privacy far az can be wished.
Two resident physicians are in constant attend
ance, and the inhrmary ia visited daily 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 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 infrmary under the
special Of any Of its directors, but other
wise will comply with the regulations Of the lnsttu
ton.
the directors in making the arrangements, they
under the necessity of charging patients according
the following schedule, viz:
Private patients. ...............s5 per week.
First class Of patients. ...........4 do.
Second class. ....-.............3 do.
Cases of mania potu. SIS to $40 do.
In every instance the board must be paid 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 carry into effect the great design of this In
stuon, 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 be received unless
aid be given by our corporation and citizens 1t is
gratifying however, to the directors to have had it
IN their powerto 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, provision has
been made.
The infrmary will be open for vsters daily in the
afternoon. DR.. THOMAS MILLER,

Net amount Of accumulated premiums, S2l5,57l.
This company is organized on the purely mutual
principle, and It's business is restricted by the char
ter to the insurance of lives and granting snnuities
and endowments.
Ii recommended, without capital, on the LIST Of Feb
ruary l843. At the close fits second year, (3lst
January, l845,) it had issued ,0S6 policies, and its
net accumulated premiums was S97,272. At the
termination Of the third year, the 2lst January,
1896 the whole number Of policies issued was 1000,
and its net accumulated premiums, after paying all
losses and expenses was s2l5, 57l; thus exhibiting
an increase during the last year Of 047 policies is
sued, and Sll6, 2S5 Of accumulated funds which is
rapidly augmenting by an annual income of $780,
900, growing out of original and renewed premiums
and interest on investments.
This extraordinary success places the company
in a strong position, and II now ranks among the
safest institutions in the country.
Policy-holders participate In the whole Of the
profits, there being proprietary interest or sub
sCribed capital to absorb any portion thereof An
extensive aud prosperous business promises large
dividends on the first division Of profits on the LIST
of February, lS4S, and persons now insuIing will
share in these profits if they survive that period.
The premiums are paid annually, and are as low
as any American company, and lower than the
English, with participation in the profits. Policy
holders secured by investments in bonds and
mortgages on real estate in the city of New York
and Brooklyn, worth double the amount loaned
thereon and in stocks of the State and city Of New
York.
The transactions of this company are on the
cash principle-consequently the survivors Of par
ties insuring with it will not be subjected to the
heavy drawback of accumulated premium notes;
reducing the benefit of the assurance to u small pit
lance.
Persons may effect insurance on their own lives
and the lives Of others carried woman can insure
the life of her husband, which will enure to her sole
use and that Of her children.

mutual life insurance, and illustrating its advan-
