STRAND.—Among the many valuable charities of which this country can boast, there is none more entitled to support than one for the successful treatment of consumption. From the prospectus of the above Dispensary, it is proposed to give gratuitous advice and medicine, when necessary, to those who are provided with a letter of recommendation from any donor to the Institution, and on certain days, which are appointed, to every poor person, without reference to sex or country. Lord Bloomfield, and several other persons of distinction, have become patrons to this Institution, which, from its central situation (the populous neighbourhood of the Strand),„cannot fail to be felt as a blessing to the numerous distressed poor with which this locality abounds. Dr. Cronin, whose new theory, and successful treatment of consumption, has already attracted so much attension, is the managing director and physician, while several other distinguished medical gentlemen have given their support, by becoming members of the committee.
