Whose smile no tears nor clouds can dim.
Be this our Bethel, bright with praise

And gently lead into His fold;

CIrY HosPITAL.-The report of the trustees
OF the Worcester City Hospital, for 1871, has
been lying on our table two or three DAYS. In
very sensible and practical way it sketches the
progress of the institution, which is still in the
experimental stage of its existence, and de-
serlOes its present condition. 1t has a resident
physician, Dr. j. G. Park, matron, Mrs S. W.
whiting, and other necessary employees, such as
COOK, laundress, nurses, etc. The report gives
an account of the patients during the last year
only, We understand that the whole number
received up TO the present time is sixty or more
and that, at times, the rooms have been full. 1t
will be remembered that this hospital was
opened for the reception Of patients, October &C.
1871, little over two months previous to the
close OF the year. During that time, sixteen
patients were received eight males and eight
females. The expenses on the building, furni.
ture, &C., were S331Ss9; for conducting the
hospital, S54l.53 1t is estimated that the ex-
penses for the present year will be $4,000. Such
is the beginning of an institution which is des
tined to grow and become quite as important
and useful as its most sanguine projectors have
anticipated. 1t needs and will doubtless receive
such endowments as will make it Unsuccessful.
