The CnnlrnI Disncnanrx.

The result of the conference on the District
appropriation bill was that the clause as passed
originally by the House, directing that of the sum
of $4,000 appropriated for the relief of the poor
$500 per month be set apart for the use of the Ce-
trail DiSpensary and Emergency Hospital, was
stricken out, leaving that most estmable and de-
serving charity dependent entirely upon the COM
plaisance of the District Commissioners. 1t is not
known how those gentlemen are affected toward
the dspensary, but IL Is certain that IL has been
and is nov doing an immense work of remedial
philanthropy under the very noses of the commu-
nifty, yet In such a quiet, undemonstrutive way
that few beyond its benelciaries know even of lis
existence. During the past year II distributed
some 700 prescriptions and attended something
over 200 emergency cases and Is entitled to receive
the warncst commentator and the fostering care
Of our city fathers. or course such Il work ordi
narily requires for its SUI port large amount OF
money; yet such has been the economy of its adj
ministratiOn that Its expenses are limited TO about
$1,000 per arnum, and 1t IS hoped in the int rest
of humanity that the Commissioners will deal
literally with this institution certainly to the ex-
tent OF appropriating $500 per month, us contem-
plated By the original bill They can do no act of
greater Justice in acknowledgement of faithful
work, wntchfu economy, and substantial results
and without that acknowledgment this institution
will be forced to close its dOOrS-tose doors which
have for ten years ever stood open for the relief OF
our sick moor.
