The undersigned have been appointed
q committee for the parish of st. Landry
to solicit donations, subscriptions aud
contributions for the purpose of increas-
ing the accommodations and capacity of
the Charity Hospital, in the city OF New
Orleans, and of making necessary SAM
tary improvements in that institution.
A call is made upon all persons for
their mite. If every II responds as he
should do, it will be an easy task to at
tain the object desired.
This institution is the noblest III the
State. 1t has for years ministered to
the wants of the poor and rich, of the
exalted and the humble. 1t has been
the school of numberless humanitarians
and devotees of science. 1t is an instl-
tuition of learning second to none in these
United States. 1t is the pride of Lou
isianians. 1t speaks their generosity,
their hospitality, their philanthropy.
We therefore confidently appeal to our
fellow-parishioners to subscribe and to
contribute in any way in the hands of
the subcommittee which we have ap-
pointed throughout the parish.
The means raised are to be specially
set aside for the purposes above stated;
and the faithful application thereof is
guaranteed by the Governor of the State
and the other distinguished gentlemen
who are the Board of Administrators of
that institution.
Fairs and balls viii be- given to aid III
obtaining the funds required.
The first fair will be given in Opsl"u-
sas, ut Perrodin's Hall, on Tuesday, the
lst of May; the second in Washington,
at Jacobs Hall, ON Tuesday, the 9th of
May ; the third in Grand Coteau, on
Tuesday, the 18th of May the fourth
in Rayne, on Tuesday, the 22d of May ;
the fifth In Vile Plate, on Tuesday, the
10Th of May /; ~the..sixth in Arnaudville,
on Tuesday, the 9Th of June.
The committees for other localities
