HOSPITALS.

The Pennsylvania Hospital

Was founded in 1750, and chartered in 1751, the corporators being styled "The Contributors to the Pennsylvania Hospital."

The Contributors (who become such on the payment of ten pounds, or upwards, to the Institution) meet annually on the first Monday in May to elect a Board of twelve Managers and a Treasurer. These Managers have charge of the affairs, not only of the Hospital in the city, but also of that for the insane in West Philadelphia. They elect all the officers except the Treasurer.

The Medical Staff of the Hospital in town consists of four attending Physicians, four Attending Surgeons, and four Resident Physicians-two in the surgical wards, and two in the medical. The term for each resident is sixteen months. An apothecary lives in the house, and has charge of the preparation and dispensing of medicines. All of these gentlemen, except the last named, render their services gratuitously. Two of the surgeons are on duty at a time, for a term of six months; the physicians serve singly for periods of three months. Each physician and surgeon pays a daily visit in the forenoon. Clinical lectures are delivered by them in the amphitheatre, from 10 A. M. to 12 M. on Wednesdays and Saturdays, and to a class of women on Tuesdays.

"That insane persons may be placed in a hospital for the insane by their legal guardians, or by their relatives

and friends in case they have no guardians, but never without the certificate of two or more reputable physicians after a personal examination made within one week of the date thereof, and this certificate to be duly acknowledged and sworn to or affirmed before some magistrate or judicial officer, who shall certify to the genuineness of the signatures and to the responsibility of the signers." (Law of April, 1860.)

None but recent cases are admitted.

For private patients, or those supported by themselves or friends, the price varies from $3.50 to $5.00 a week. For those supported by townships or counties the price is $3.00 a week.

Preparatory to the admission of a patient (unless when committed by order of a court) the Superintendent shall be furnished with the certificate as above, with a request from a near relative or friend that the patient may be received into the Hospital, and a bond with satisfactory security for the payment of board and other expenses while in the Institution. All private patients must make a payment of thirteen weeks' board in advance, and if taken away without or against the advice and consent of the Superintendent within that period no part of said amount shall be refunded.

Whenever a patient is sent to the Hospital by order of a court, etc., the order shall be lodged with the Superintendent.

Those who may bring a patient with such a warrant will be required to pay at the time of the admission of the patient seventy-eight dollars.
