4 City DIsPENSARY.

Our attention has been called to the importance
having in this City Dispensary, at which the poor
of the town and suburbs might receive such msdt
cines as they often stand in need Of and medical a
vice, gratis. As it is at present, with no provision
of this sort, the burden of attending to the poor falls
not only entirely Physicians, but they fire.
quently under the necessity dictated by their kind
feelings and their humanity,) of giving out their
medicines and purchasing articles for the beneftd
such persons, without the slightest expectation Of
fee or reward. This state of things ought to ber
medied, and this worthy profession relieved Of such
burden. AS community, having " the poor with
US always" and responsible to some extent, at least
for their physical well as their moral condition.
is our duty to look to this NATTER and sec what cn
be done.
Two hundred dollars per annum, we should Think
would be ample for the purpose contemplated"
Physicians of course giving out the medicines ihl
procured and their own services, as heretofore Wlp
out charge. We understand the Ladies themselves
will contribute one hundred dollars; and surely the
citizens, the Town Authorities for them, will make
up the balance. We throw out these suggestions
more for the purpose of inviting attention to the SUD-
ject, than with the view of presenting any plan ~
our own.

Mr.. VENABLE. Our friends may rest assured
WhIg reports to the contrary Notwithstanding, that
this gentleman is progressing manfllly in the cam

ton. We learn from friend that he made a most
capital speech in Chatham, and advanced an array of
argument and facts invincibe by any force" that
his opponent could bring against him.
The foodgates of caumny, abuse, and ridicule have
been opened upon this gentleman from every quarter
of the Wing ranks, which is the best evidence in the
world of his sound Democracy and true Republican
ism. Calmly has he met the torrent-it has passed
by and he remains unhurt. The truth of the matter
is, that Mr.. Venable is of the best informed pol
iticians in the country, and the Wings well know it.
What cannot be effected by fair argument and open
discussion. they seek to gain by abuse both public
and private. What else can be expected of party,
portion of whose organs followed with fendish
malignity the lamented Polk to his home, invading
its sacred precincts with the polluted eath of part

life in their rancorous hate Bay Tray Blanche
