INTRODUCTION,

ITS RISE AND PROGRESS . A FEW Gentlemen, bleffied with benevolent hearts, and liberal difpofitions, urged by theit feelings, and encouraged by the fuccefs of fimi- !ar Charities (eftabliffied in the Metropolis and places adjacent) were induced to attempt tQ in- dilute this Charity. The original Promoters met on the 29th day of April, 1780, and were foon joinedby feveral friends and humane perfons, who continued to meet very frequently, as well to promote Sub- fcriptions as to deft proper Officers, and to form and adopt Regulations, Rules and Orders, for the good government of the Charity. On the 3d of Auguft, 1780, the Governors conceived that the fruits of their labours were fo far ripened, that they ought to diffufe them among the obje&s of their Care. They there-* fore refolved that this Difpenfary fliould he opened On the then 12th inftant. In the firft fix months, 685 poor, afflicled.. worthy objects were cured or received rclieL

PRESENT STATE. From-the inllitution to this time, 54,563 dif- trelfed fellow-creatures have enjoyed the ad- vantages refulting from this benevolent efla- blilhment, 52,769 of whom, to their great corn- fort, and to the happiuefs of their families, and benefit of the publick, have experienced the eminent abilities, unremitting afiiduity, and ten- der care, of the Gentlemen of the Faculty en- gaged in this Charity; either by receiving a perfect cure, or the utmoft relief that medicine or chirurgical operations could bellow. There are 532 unfortunate beings new under Cure. The Phyficians and Surgeon have vifited 15,410 Patients at their own habitations.

UTILITY. The very great number of applications, moll manifeftly demonflrate the neceffity of this un- dertaking, and point out, that proper objcfls abound "within the limits of it. The mo ft diftinguifhed writers agree, that the wealth of nations fprings from the produflion of labour; furely, then, poor induftrious labourers have a juft claim to, and merit the care and affiftance, not only of the affluent, but of all de- grees not pinched with want. Hofpitals are certainly very ufcfui eftablifti- ments, and real public benefits; yet their moft fanguine fupporters cannot deny, that in feyeral inftances Difpenlaries are pre-eminent ; and very particularly fo, on account of the afflifted being vifited at their own habitations. For ad- mitting that Nurfes at Hofpitals arc vigilant and humane, yet they cannot poffefs or impart the fympathetic feelings, or anxious care, of an affefiionate Hufband or Wife, a tender Parent or Child; which muft undoubtedly afford a con- liderable comfort to, and, in fome degree, loften the pangs of, the unfortunate difcafed.—Hofpi- tals are alfo much lefs falutary than Difpenlaries in this refpeft; at Hofpitals, Patients arc ad- mitted once a Week only ; but, at the indifpofed are immediately affifted. Many other and great benefits are communi- cated to the objefls of this charity, which are fo obvious, that an enumeration of them feems not only unncceffary, but might be deemed tedious. The applications for the relief of poor, dif- trelfed, and deferving objects, fo far exceed the means arifing from the prefent fubferiptions, that the benefits of the charity cannot, at prefent, be extended to all of them; the Governors there- fore ht>pe for, and folicit the humane and ge- nerous afliftance of their' Friends and Neigh- bours, to extend the cheering Relief to Mifery. It is in their power to crown the endeavours, and to gratify the hopes and wifhes of the Go- vernors, by timely, though fmall fubfcriptions ; and when an individual confiders that he can, by the payment of a fmgle Guinea annually, oblige many, relieve a number, do fo much - lic good, and indulge his own humane feelings, be furely will readily and cheerfully contribute his mite, and prefs to lend farther afliftance to fo benevolent a purpofe. Perfoas fubfcribing early to Charities, receive a fatisfa&ion that others cannot enjoy; for early fubfcriptions tend to render Charities fo liable, that, through their means, comfort may be ren- dered to the unhappy for ages to come. Many cogent reafons might be urged, much perfuahve language ufed, and.many weighty ar- guments ftated, to procure fubfcriptions; but it is hoped, that private Good, and public Utility, will fuperfcde the neceflity of entering into the matter more at large. This Charity is much indebted to feveral eminent Divines, who have delivered Sermons in favour of it, and thereby raifed confiderable Turns towards its fupport. PATIENTSARE VISItEO
