TITY Innrmary and Dispensary. The
~ directors OF this institution take great pleasure


in announcing TO It's patrons and friends that IL has
undergone many material alterations and improve
ments calculated to add TO the comforts Of the pa
tents. The inhrmsry has been divided in such
viz: white and colored, male and femaei and, from


its position and regulations, profers retirement and
privacy as far az can be wished.
Two resident physicians are in constant attend.
anee, and the nhrmary s visited daily at III O'Clock
a. m, by the attending physician and surgeon, who
also devote as much Tune is necessary for pre-
scriptions operations, and dispensing Of medicines
for all such dspensary patients as NAV be in wait
ing. Besides these attendants, the directors have
been fortunate in securing the services Of the SIS
TIERS OF CHARITY, who reside in the infrmary,
conduct its affairs, and give their undivided atten-
lion to the nursing and comforts Of the sick.
Private patients may enter the inhrmary under the
special Of any one of its directors but other
wise will comply with the regulations Of the nstitu-
uon


In consequence of the heavy expenses incurred by
the directors in making the arrangements, they are
under the necessity Of charging patients according
the following schedule, viz:
| Private patients. ...s5 per week.
| First class OF patients. ............4 do.
Second class. ...................3 do.
Cases OF mania potu ....S5 TO $40 do.
|
in advance, to the sister SUPERIOR who is authorized
to receive it, or security for its payment must be
given, the security being responsible citizen of this
District.


1t is to be regretted that the directors have been
unable to carry into effect the great design of this In
stiuon, as, from the heavy expenses incurred they
cannot extend their charities to the poor as far as
they could wish Thus far the receipts from patients
have not met the current expenses hence but few
charity patients have been be received unless
aid be given by corporation and citizens. 1t is
gratifying however, to the directors TO have had it
their power the of humanity through
their dispensary arrangement, by which hundreds
of poor, sick, and disabled have had dispensed to
them medicines, with medical and surgical advice
All classes of diseases will be admitted into the
infrmary, except smallpox and maniacs For
these, the directors regret to say, provision has
been made


The nfrmary will be open for visters daily in the
afternoon. DIR. THOMAS MILLER,
