The homeopathic HosPITAL.-In accord
ance with the notices published in the city
newspapers few days since, meeting of the
ladies of Portland favorable to the Hom9opath-
ic system of medical practice, was held on Sat
urday afternoon at the residence of Dr. Burr,
in aid of the Massachusetts Homeopathic Hos
pital Fair. The meeting was well attended, a
good deal of interest being manifested and in
consequence about fifty ladies have already
pledged themselves to assist either with money
articles for the Boston Fair This is the first
time the Hom@opaths here have ever been call
ed upon to contribute of their substance to the
advancement of their cause, and it is confident
ly hoped that among the thousands who have
at different times gratefully acknowledged its
sanative influence, enough will be found who
are sufficiently interested to furnish Portland
table, at the fair, to be held in Music Hall in
April next. 1t may not be generally known
that the Boston Hospital is the only Homoeo
pathic one in New England. 1t occupies
house hired for the purpose, and has sixteen
beds. Although it has been in operation less
than year, the applicants for admission have
been far in excess of its capacity, and there is
an absolute necessity for more money to meet
It's wants and to place the hospital in proper
condition for enlarged usefulness. 1t becomes
great privilege to the people in the Homeo-
pathy ranks that good hospital, where Maine
people can be received on most favorable terms
Is located SO near us as Boston ANY ladies'
therefore, who are willing to assist either with
money or materials, are requested to leave their
names either with Mrs. Geo. S. Hunt, IS State
street, or Mrs c. H. Burr, 399 Congress street.

morous character of "Snipkins'' will be person.
ated by young gentleman of this city, He will

"Haymakers'' have two rehearsals a week, and
