MOTHERS,
Have you clelicnle, weakly cliiltlre-n. who are
ulways taking cold. and subject. to Croup '.l—'-
Reinember! there never was a case of Croup.
which did no. originate in a Cold .’ And when
your child goes to bi-d wlieeziog and coughing.
you know not. that. before inoiningz. Croup may
not set in,auil ere you can get a l’liysiciaii,poiir
dear child may be beyond the reacli of lll‘lp.-‘-'-“
\Va, beset-.cli you. tlierefore. as you value "the
lives of your children. keep this medicine by
you in the liouse, anil ivlien your llllle ones
take cold and coiiiiiiciice coiigliiug, give it to
them at once, and rest not. until the cough is en-
tirely snbiliieil. \Vecoii.<cieiitioiisly aver, af-
ter the most extexitlcil experience, that if this
advice weie followed, no child need ever
DIE OF CIIOUI’.

for the cold would be cured, before it could at
rive at. tlii.-2 a(_vgravated uiiil fatal stage. Let
every Motlier. cspeciiilly. heed well these re-
marks tliat. she may not liereafler, when mour-
ning overtlie early blight of some (.‘ll(‘.l'l!s‘llt’(l

To be the first to greet ifs.

And ca re been sorely pressing,

’Tis sweet to turn from out our path,
And find a fireside blessiiig;

Oh. joyfully dear is the lionioward tiack,
If we are but sure of a welcome back.

VVhat do we rock on a dreary way,
Tl]()ll:_{ll lonely and beniglited,
If we know tlicre are 'ips to (hide our stay,

From the New‘ Haven Palladium. Sept. 10th.

The Connecticut {lose-ital.
We spent a portion of a day this week in
looking through the apartments of the‘ Gen-
erafHospital. with one .cf our city physi-
cians, Dr. Hooker, and were much gmtitied

with the appearance ofneatncss, Coinfort and ,

order \Vl]l('h .Se(‘lllt‘d to prevail throughout
the establishment. When we say comfort
we mean ofcourse only lI1.'lI.tlf’.gl‘C‘e of com-
fort which the sick and the disabled are per-
mittcd ‘to ‘enjoy under their ‘afflictions, when

kindly cared for, and reposing‘ in spacious‘

apartments. This building occupies a pleas-
ant site on high ganund. in the soutliwcsterii
section of the city. wlierc. there is ciintinual

ly passing through the balls :1 fine bi'ecze_ of
pure air in the vvarni season. Within and
witlioiit, the building; has an inviting aspect
and the grounds around it are laid out with
good taste. yet they are capablcof a much
higher cultivation and further 0l'l'lt]tltt‘.lll——
both of which will (l()L'.l)l.lL‘$S be l)9SlOvt‘f.’Ll
when the funds of the. institution uill war-
rcnt the expense.

Our citizens generally have but a ___fee.ble
idea of the great aiimuiit of human suffering
alleviared in this building from your to year,
alll10llt_{l'I the number ofpaiients there at any
one time is not very large. To the lii;_zli
honor ‘of the ll’iCtll(‘alfItCl.!lly of this city be it
said, that they render their services steadily
and faithfully at the Hospital, without any
other rcivard than the Wm-ioiisiicss that tlicy
are relieving human .<‘iili'ei'in«__:-, in some de-
_g_-_-ree following the example of Him xi-Ito
went about doing good, causing the blind ‘to
see, the lame loywalli-, tmtl the, lcpers to be
made whole. Sucli services, ‘thus l‘9ntl€‘l‘etl,
give to the iiiedical profusion a Iltlblliiy ‘itioic
elevating and imposing than stars and gar-
ters can confer.

We most sincerely wish that the commu-
nity at large would apprc'ciate'tl1e impor-
tance of tliisinstitution to the city and the
State; and to the cause of disabled liuinauiity,
of whatever nation or color, that .imv come
within its walls, to seek its he-aling balms.-
A Charge is made to patients for ll0lil'(l, of
course, otheiwvise the institution could not be

extia demands of the pnlictits, and this

sick stranger is such an in.~tituti.;ii, uhere he
may have such attentions as he cannot get at
the best liotels, and the quiet that he (‘an {ind
in few otlies liouscs, and the aliiiost constant
presence of one or more pliysiciaiis?

In our walk through the building on “Int?-
day, we were pleased to observe that all the
fouriven patients there were iccoveeing of
their tualatlics. One was a case of ship fez
V.-ir, and the sick man had begun to lieve an
‘appetite. ft pictty suiesign of CODVtll8SCt3ncD.,
We would here state that of the sixty eigt-it
cases of ship fever brought totbc Hospital
within the past two years, all but two have

pain until after she had passed from the
hands ot the surge-on. The physicians re-
gard it as rt-inaikable that tliete should be
two sn'cl'i_ cases“, of -a rallict‘ imczittiiiioti dis-
ease, in the institution at the saine time. A

Dr. John S. Moody, Assistant Pliysicicn,
resides at the Hospital, and gives his
constant personal tll.lt’t’ltlal'lCC to all the
patients, iviihout fee or reward. His sole
advantage being such as be derives from
his experience there. He is :1 faithful and

has ever filled that post. There are six
