superintendent OF the assay office, is receivin@
by each European steamer large quantities re-
gold. This specie is deposited by importina
bankers and consists of twenty franc pieces'
marks, Japanese and English coin and bar

Among large importing houses dealing heavi-

the amount which will come over. Some
think the total influx of gold will run far
above last year, and point to the fact that it
is already in advance of the figures for the
corresponding period last year. Other bank

millions.

The sanitary condition of the hospi.

criticism; we refer to overcrowding.
The upper or main building can &C.

in the wards 564; "a more than can
be properly cared for; and theresult is
that these supernumeriesare compell-

tains at the lower house. AS new pa.
tients are committed faster than
the old ones can be discharged,
and as more than a year must

that measures for relief may soon be
imperatively demanded.
