 ^ Historical and Descriptive Sketch of the Institution. 
 
 IN the year 1770, a number of the most respectable and 
 public spirited inhabitants of the city of New- York, sub- 
 scribed considerable sums of money, for the purpose of erect- 
 ing and establishing a public Hospital ; and a petition was pre- 
 sented by Peter Middleton, John Jones and Samuel 
 Bard,* three eminent physicians, to Lieutenant Governor Col- 
 den, then commander in chief of the province of New- York, 
 for a charter of incorporation, which was, in consequence, 
 granted, the following year, by the Earl of Dunmore, gover- 
 nor and commander in chief of the province. 
 
 By this charter, dated the 13th July, 1776, the mayor, re- 
 corder, aldermen and assistants, of the city of New- York, the 
 rector of Trinity Church, the different ministers of the several 
 other protestant churches, the president of King's (now Co- 
 lumbia) College, and the principal and most respectable inha- 
 
 * From the following extract from a medical difcourfe, delivered by Dr. 
 Middleton, in King's (now Columbia) College, on the 3 J November, 1769, it 
 appears that the firfl fuggeftion relative to the eftablifhment of an Hofpital was 
 made by Dr. Bard. " The neceffity and ufefulnefs," fays Dr. Middleton, " of a 
 " public infirmary, has been fo warmly and pathetically fet forth, in a difcourfe 
 " delivered by Dr. Samuel Bard, at the commencement in May laft, that his ex- 
 ** cellency, Sir Henry Moore, immediately fet on foot a fubfcription for that pur- 
 " pofe, to whicb himfelf and molt of the gentlemen prefent liberally contributed. 
 " His excellency alfo recommended it, in the moft prefling manner to the affem- 
 kt blyof the province, as an object worthy of their attention; and the corpora- 
 M tion of the city have given affurances of granting a very valuable and com- 
 " modiouslot of ground for erecting the building upon; fo that there is now, al- 
 " moft a certain profpect of this benevolent and humane foundation foon taking 
 " place : And as it is to be on the moft catholic and unexceptionable plan, it is to 
 " be hoped, that it will meet with the countenance and encouragement of every 
 " companionate and good member of fociety, whatever party or denomination he 
 ' may choofe t« be diftinguifhed by, on other occafions."

 History of the New-Tork Hospital. 
 
 bitants of the city, were named as members, and incorporated, 
 by the name of the " Society of the Hospital in the city of New- 
 York in America."* Twenty-six governors were also named, 
 for the management of the affairs and business of the Institu- 
 tion, who held their first meeting, on the 25th July, 1771. 
 
 Through the influence of Doctor John Fothergill and Sir 
 William Duncan, considerable contributions were made to the 
 society, by many inhabitants of the city of London, and other 
 places in Great- Britain ; and in 1772, the legislature of the 
 province of New-York granted an annual allowance of 800 
 pounds (2,000 dollars) in aid of the institution, for twenty 
 years. 
 
 In 1773, the governors of the hospital purchased of Mrs. 
 Barclay and Mr. Rutgers ground for the erection of a suita- 
 ble edifice. A plan of a building having been procured by 
 Dr. Jones, the foundation was laid, the 27th July, 1773 ; but 
 on the 28th February, 1775, when it was almost completed, 
 the building accidentally took fire, and was nearly con r 
 sumed. 
 
 By this misfortune, the society suffered a loss of seven 
 thousand pounds ; and the execution of their benevolent plan 
 would have been wholly suspended, had not the legislature, in 
 March, 1775, generously granted them the sum of four thou- 
 sand pounds, towards rebuilding the house, and repairing the 
 loss they had sustained. But the war between Great-Britain 
 and the Colonies, which took place in the same year, prevented 
 the completion of the edifice. During the war, the house was 
 occupied by the British and Hessian soldiers, as barracks, and 
 occasionally, as an hospital. 
 
 The effects of the war on the circumstances of our citizens, 
 and the general derangement of affairs, prevented any atten- 
 tion to the institution ; and it was not until the 3d January, 
 1791, that the house was in a proper condition to receive pa- 
 tients, when eighteen were admitted. 
 
 The annuity granted by the provincial legislature, ceased 
 with the commencement of hostilities between Great-Britain 
 and the colonies ; but the legislature of the state, on the 1st 
 March, 1788, directed eight hundred pounds, during four 
 years, from the 1st February, 1788, to be paid to the hospital, 
 out of the monies arising from the excise in the city of New- 
 York. And the legislature, by a subsequent act, passed the 
 11th April, 1792, for the better support of the hospital, granted

 poration has been changed to that of Tbt Society of the Ne-w-Tork Hofpital."

 two thousand pounds a year, for five years, payable out of the 
 city excise. 
 
 By an act, passed the 31st March, 1795, the legislature re- 
 pealed the act ol the 11th April, 1792, as to future payments, 
 and granted to the hospital four thousand pounds, annually, 
 for five years, payable out of the duties on sales at public auc- 
 tion, in the city of New- York. An additional sum of one 
 thousand pounds, a year, for four years, was granted 11th 
 April, 1796, payable out of the same fund. And on the 20th 
 March, 1801, the annual allowance of 12,500 dollars was 
 continued for five years, from 1st February, 1800. 
 
 By an act passed the 30th March, 1797, for the establish- 
 ment and support of a Luzaretto, the masters and wardens of 
 the port of New- York, were authorized to receive of the mas- 
 ters, officers, seamen and passengers of every vessel entering 
 the port ot New-York, a certain sum for each person, which 
 was directed to be paid to the commissioners of the health of- 
 fice, for the relief of sick seamen and foreigners admitted into 
 the Laz.retto; and the surplus, if any, was directed to be 
 paid to the governors of the hospital, for the relief of such 
 seamen and foreigners, as might be patients of the Hospital. 
 
 By an act, passed April 1, 1796, for regulating the port of 
 New- York, the harbour-master was directed to pay certain 
 fines therein mentioned to the treasurer of the New- York Hos- 
 pital. 
 
 By an arrangement between the treasury department of the 
 United States, and the Hospital, made in 1799, the sick and 
 disabled seamen at the port of New-York, are received into 
 the Hospital, and enjoy all its advantages. The collector of the 
 port, under the direction of the secretary of the treasury of 
 the United States, pays out of the hospital money collected 
 and received by him, three dollars per week, for the board and 
 maintenance of each seaman, including medicine and other 
 charges. 
 
 But the collector, since July, 1804, has refused to pay for 
 more than 75 seamen, at any one time. The governors, how- 
 ever, considering every seaman who has paid hospital-money 
 to the collector of the United States, as having a just claim on 
 the government of the United States for hospital relief, have 
 not hitherto refused admittance to seamen, beyond the number 
 limited ; trusting to the justice of the national legislature, for 
 remuneration of the sums expended, in the support of such sea- 
 men, beyond the amount received from the collector.^ With-

 out the aid which has thus been afforded to them, many of this 
 useful and meritorious, though careless and improvident class 
 of men, must have been abandoned, in disease and poverty, to 
 the casual and precarious relief of common charity. 
 
 In 1801, an agreement was made between the New- York 
 Hospital and the governors of the Lying-in-Hospital, by 
 which the existing funds of the latter were to be paid to the 
 use of the former institution, on condition that a lying-in ward 
 should be established ; and a suitable ward for that purpose 
 was accordingly fitted up and opened for the reception of pa- 
 tients. 
 
 In consequence of the recommendation of the medical facul- 
 ty of Columbia College, the governors of the hospital, in 
 August, 1796, appropriated the sum of 500 dollars towards 
 the purchase of a medical library ; to which the members of 
 that faculty contributed books from their private libraries, and 
 part of their fees of public instruction. An hospital library 
 was thus established, which was further augmented by the 
 purchase of the medical library of Dr. Romayne, in 1800, and 
 by the accession, in 1805, of the library of a private associa- 
 tion of physicians, under the name of the Medical Society of 
 New- York, who gave their books, on condition, that they and 
 such of their sons, as should become practitioners of medi- 
 cine in the city of New- York, should have the free use of the 
 hospital library. In 1805, the governors appropriated the an- 
 nual sum of 250 dollars, for the purchase of books ; and large 
 additions have been made to it, by purchases and donations, 
 from time to time ; so that, including the valuable botanical 
 library of Dr. Hosack, lately purchased, the Hospital library 
 now contains about 3,000 volumes, among which are some of 
 the rarest and most valuable works in medical science. 
 
 As there existed no institution in the state, for the reception 
 and cure of lunatics, the governors were induced to appro- 
 priate apartments in the hospital for patients of that descrip- 
 tion ; but as the building was not designed for that purpose, 
 the accommodations were found to be extremely inconvenient 
 and inadequate ; and the applications for the admission of lu- 
 natics, constantly increasing, it was resolved, in 1806, if the 
 legislature would lend its aid for that purpose, by further con- 
 tribution, or by giving greater permanence to the existing al- 
 lowance, to erect a separate building, to be exclusively appro- 
 priated to the reception of that unfortunate class of persons. 
 
 the collector, was 843. And the whole charge of their maintenance, at the 
 rate of three dollars per week, during thofe five years, amounts to 9,500 dollars ; 
 for which fum, nothing has yet been received by the Hofpital.

 An application was accordingly made to the legislature, who 
 passed an act, on the 14th March, 1806, continuing the an- 
 nual provision for the Hospital, payable out of the duties on 
 sales at auction, in the city of New- York, until the year 1857. 
 The governors immediately proceeded to lay the foundation 
 of the proposed edifice, denominated the " Lunatic Asylum," 
 which was completed, so as to be open for the reception of pa- 
 tients, on the 15th July, 1808, when nineteen were removed 
 from the other building, and forty-eight more admitted, mak- 
 ing in the whole sixty-seven. The whole cost of the asylum 
 was about fifty-six thousand dollars. 
 
 To complete the plan of the Hospital and render it 
 more extensively useful, it is desirable, that another building 
 should be erected, on the northerly side of the ground, corres- 
 ponding with the lunatic asylum, which besides accommoda- 
 ting a greater number of patients,would furnish apartments for 
 an anatomical museum, a more spacious theatre for surgical ope- 
 rations, and apartments for other useful objects, connected with 
 the institution ; but the execution of this design will depend 
 on the increase of the funds of the hospital, which have been 
 exhausted, by the building of the asylum, and in necessary 
 repairs and improvements. The governors, however, indulge 
 the hope, that by the aid of the legislature, and private contri- 
 butions, this part of their plan may yet be accomplished. 
 
 To assist the governors to discharge the debts contracted in 
 building the asylum, the legislature by an act, passed the 23d 
 March, 1810, granted to the hospital the sum of 3,500 dollars 
 per annum, for ten years, payable quarterly, out of the dutiea 
 on goods sold at auction in the city of New- York. 
 
 The institution is under the management of twenty-six go- 
 vernors, who meet on the first Tuesday in every month, at the 
 Hospital ; their services are gratuitous. 
 
 Persons labouring under incurable ailments, or diseases of 
 any kind are not admitted into the hospital ; being regarded 
 as fitter objects for the alms-house ; and because their admis- 
 sion might, after a time, defeat the very purpose of the institu- 
 tion, which is intended as an infirmary, for the reception and 
 cure of such as require medical or surgical treatment, in com- 
 mon diseases and accidents, the restraint and management re- 
 quisite for lunacy, and the care, nursing and attendance neces- 
 sary for lying-in women. Sick women who have young chil- 
 dren, are not received w T ith their children, unless the child, as 
 well as the mother, is a proper patient. Persons having the 
 small-pox, measles or any infectious or contagious disease, are 
 not admitted ; but they are sometimes received as out-pa- 
 tients, and attended by the physicians of the hospital.

 History cf the New-Tork Hospital. 
 
 Every applicant for admission, must bring with him a recom- 
 mendation from one of the governors, or a physician or sur- 
 geon of the hospital, except in behalf of lunatics, when the ap- 
 plication must be made to the committee of the lunatic asyium. 
 In cases of sudden accidents, patients may be received by the 
 superintendent, without a recommendation, until the next 
 meeting of the visiting- committee, who decide on the propriety 
 of the patient's remaining in the house. A governor, phy- 
 sician or surgeon may also give a special recommendation in 
 cases requiring the immediate admission of a patient. Citi- 
 zens of this state, not resident in the city, who are desirous of 
 being admitted, must be recommended by a justice of the peace, 
 and by one or more of the overseers of the poor, of the city or 
 town in which they reside. An account also of their diseases 
 should be drawn up by a physician or surgeon, and sent with 
 them. 
 
 A visiting committee, consisting of three governors, attend 
 the hospital on Tuesday and Friday in every week, at 11 
 o'clock in the morning, for the purpose of admitting patients, 
 who are previously examined by one of the attending physi- 
 cians or surgeons, or by the house-physician or house-surgeon. 
 Such patients as are unable to pay for their board and mainte- 
 nance, are received as paupers ; but such as are able to pay, in 
 part or in whole, are admitted as pay-patients, on such terms 
 as may be agreed on by the visiting committee, who take secu- 
 rity for the performance. This committee have the general 
 care and charge of the hospital, receive all applications or 
 complaints, and direct all the officers and servants in the dis- 
 charge of their respective duties. 
 
 There is also an inspecting committee consisting of two 
 governors, who visit the Hospital at leastonce a week, to inquire 
 whether the bye-laws and regulations relative to the manage- 
 ment and economy of the house are duly observed and carried 
 into effect ; and particularly to examine into the conduct of the 
 officers, servants, and nurses, to see that the patients have not 
 been neglected, and to hear their complaints, and to report them, 
 with their observations, to the governors, at their next meeting. 
 
 The lunatic asylum is under the immediate charge of a 
 committee of three governors, who admit and discharge all 
 patients of that description. By an agreement made with the 
 commissioners of the alms-house, in the city of New- York, lu- 
 natics are received from that charity, at the rate of two dollar? 
 per week, which barely defrays the actual cost of their mainte- 
 nance, exclusive of medicine, clothing, and funeral expenses. 
 By the third section of the act of the legislature, passed the 
 
History of the New-York Hospital. 
 
 24th March, 1807, the overseers of the poor of any city or 
 town, by and with the consent of the common council of such 
 cit\ , or two justices of the peace of the county, in which such 
 town shall be, whene ver any poor person, legally settled in any 
 such city or town, and maintained at the public charge, and 
 who were or shall become lunatic or insane, may contract with 
 the governors of the Hospital, for the care and maintenance 
 of such lunatic, on such terms as they may deem meet, and 
 transport such lunatic to the Hospital ; and the sums agreed 
 on are to be paid to the Hospital, by the overseers of such city 
 or town, who are to enter the same in the poor book, with 
 the cost and charges of removal to and from the Hospital, in 
 like manner as provided by " the act for the relief and settle- 
 ment of the poor provided that the place of settlement of 
 such lunatic shall remain as before removal, and that idiots, or 
 such pel sons as are not lunatic or insane, are not to be sent 
 to the Hospital. 
 
 The governors have agreed to admit such lunatics from the 
 different counties, on the same terms, as they are received 
 from the alms-house in the city of New-York. 
 
 There are six physicians and four surgeons who attend the 
 Hospital. They are selected from the most eminent of the 
 profession and appointed by the governors. One physician is 
 required to visit every medical patient, afflicted with any acute 
 disease, at least once a day, and oftener, if necessary ; and 
 every medical patient, without distinction, must be visited, at 
 least three times a week. One surgeon must visit the Hos- 
 pital, at least, three times a week, and every surgical patient, 
 once a week, at least. The physicians and surgeons perform 
 these services gratis. The incidental advantages of such an 
 appointment, in regard to their profession, afford them some 
 remuneration. 
 
 There are, also, a house-physician and a house-surgeon, re- 
 siding constantly in the Hospital, who are appointed for one 
 year. They are generally young men, and the qualifications 
 required, are, that they shall have attained twenty-one years of 
 age, have been pupils of a practising physician or surgeon for 
 three years, during which time, they must have attended a 
 complete course of lectures in one of the colleges, have at- 
 tended the daily practice of the Hospital for one year, and 
 must be examined by the physicians and surgeons, and pro- 
 duce ample testimonials of their good moral character. 
 
 An apothecary is also appointed by the governors, who re- 
 sides in the Hospital, and who must also be examined and re- 
 commended bv the phvsicians and surgeons, and produce satis-

 factory testimonials of his good character, before he is ad- 
 mitted. He has the charge of the apothecary's shop, and com- 
 pounds and makes up all medicines prescribed, according to the 
 directions of the physicians and surgeons. The house-phy- 
 sician and house-surgeon are required to visit the wards, at 
 least, every morning and evening, and to be prepared to re- 
 port the state of the patients to the attending physicians and 
 surgeons ; and they must see that the medicines prescribed 
 are sent to the patients, and duly administered. 
 
 The Lunatic Asylum is attended by one physician, who has 
 the sole charge of the medical treatment of the patients. He is 
 required to visit the asylum, three times every week, at least, 
 and oftener, if necessary. The present physician is Dr. 
 Bruce, who has attended the asylum, since it was first 
 opened. 
 
 The superintendant, who is the steward of the Hospital, and 
 the ?natron, are charged with the domestic management and 
 economy of the institution. 
 
 The ground on which the Hospital stands is an area, about 
 455 feet in length, and 440 feet in breadth, bounding, in front, 
 on Broadway, in the rear, on Church-street, northerly, on An- 
 thony-street, and southerly, on Duane-street. Part of this 
 area, fronting on Broadway, is, at present, owned and occu- 
 pied by individuals, leaving an avenue of about 90 feet, leading 
 from Broadway, which is planted with a double row of trees. 
 The whole of this ground ought to belong to the Hospital ; and 
 when it is considered how important it is to the institution, and 
 how inconvenient and disagreeable, the immediate vicinity of 
 the Hospital must be to those who may be disposed to erect 
 dwelling-houses on those lots, it is hoped that the owners will 
 prefer selling them to the Hospital, on reasonable terms, and 
 that, in this instance, at least, private interest will yield to a 
 sense of public good. 
 
 The ground belonging to the Hospital was inclosed with a 
 brick wall, in 1801. 
 
 The scite of the Hospital is elevated, being considerably 
 above the level of Church-street, and about 600 yards dis- 
 tant from Hudson River. It is one of the most open and 
 airv situations in the city, and possesses great advantages for the 
 enjoyment of fresh and salubrious breezes. 
 
 The principal building, denominated the Hospital, is of 
 grey stone, and in the simple Doric style. It extends in front, 
 124 feet, is 50 feet deep in the centre, and 86 feet deep at the 
 wings, which project on each side. It consists of three stories 
 above the basement ; a third story having been added in 
 
History of the New-York Hospital. 11 
 
 1803, when it became necessary to put on a new roof. The 
 height above the ground is about 52 feet. The base- 
 ment story, which is about 10 feet high, contains a larger 
 and a smaller kitchen, a laundry, bathing room, three 
 store-rooms, and two wards fitted up for the temporary accom- 
 modation of patients whose particular disease renders it ne- 
 cessary to remove them from intercourse with others. The 
 principal story is about 14 feet high. In the centre, is a hall 
 and stair-case, a room for the governors, which contains the 
 library, a parlour and bed room for the superintendant and 
 matron, an apothecary's shop, and a room for the clerk. In 
 each story of each wing are two wards, 36 feet in length, 
 and 24 feet in breadth, opposite to each other, and opening 
 into passages extending from one end of the house to the 
 other, and communicating by a staircase. On the second and 
 third floors of the centre, are rooms for the accommodation of 
 the house-physician, house-surgeon, apothecary, and different 
 officers and servants ; in the second story, on the westerly 
 side, is an apartment established as a lying-in ward ; and in 
 the third story, looking to the northwest, is the theatre for sur- 
 gical operations, fitted up so as to accommodate about two 
 hundred persons. It is well lighted, by a large window in the 
 pediment, which has been substituted for a sky-light in the 
 roof, by request of the surgeons. This building contains 16 
 wards, 36 feet long, and 24 feet broad, for the sick, in which 
 about 300 patients may be accommodated. There are 23 
 other rooms of different dimensions, besides the lying-in ward 
 and theatre for surgical operations. 
 
 The edifice is crowned with a handsome cupola, which af- 
 fords a most extensive and picturesque view of the city, har- 
 bour and adjacent country. There is an excellent kitchen- 
 garden, and the grounds are laid out in walks, planted with 
 fruit and ornamental trees, for the benefit of convalescent 
 patients. There is also a large and well constructed ice- 
 house, a bathing house, and convenient stables. 
 
 The building denominated the Lunatic Asylum, is also of 
 grey stone. It is situated on the southerly side of the 
 ground, at a short distance from the principal building, 
 and corresponding with it, in its exterior appearance and style 
 of architecture. Being separate from the other house, the 
 sick are not incommoded by the lunatics, who have separate 
 yards inclosed, one for males, and the other for females, 
 where such as can be trusted at large, are permitted to walk in 
 the open air. 
 
12 
 
 History of the New-York Hospital. 
 
 This building, on account of the declivity of the ground, 
 has a sub-basement, besides a basement and two principal 
 stories. Its length is 90 feet ; it is 40 feet deep m tne 
 centre, and 65 feet, at the wings, which project 12f ieet on each 
 side. The sub-basement contains 10 rooms, 11 ieet long and 
 8i feet wide and 9 feet high ; 3 rooms, lbi ieet long and 1 li 
 feet wide, and a kitchen, 23f feet long and 16f feet wide. 
 There is a hall running through the centre, from one end to 
 the other, into which the doors of the rooms or cells open^ 
 opposite to the windows. This hall is paved with marble, 
 and in it are fixed seven circular iron stoves, communicating 
 with iron pipes fixed in brick flues, reaching to the top ol the 
 building ; each flue passes through the corners of the rooms, 
 so as, by means of iron doors and valves, to communicate 
 heat to two rooms, in each story. All the rooms or ceils, ex- 
 cept the four largest, and those in the upper story, are arched 
 with brick, and the walls are also brick, whitewashed ; so that 
 there is no wood, and the floors being filled in with brick, the 
 building is completely fire-proof; and the patients, while they 
 have sufficient heat, in the winter season, cannot possibly set 
 fire to any part of the building, or injure themselves. The 
 basement story contains the same number of rooms, and of 
 the same size with those in the sub-basement. In each of the 
 two principal stories, are also 10 rooms, 1 1 feet long and 8-£ feet 
 wide; two rooms, 17 feet long and lI-£ feet wide, ana two 
 rooms, 24 feet long and 17 feet wide, w hich open into a hall 
 11 feet wide. The height of the principal story is 14-£, and 
 of the upper story, 12$ feet. 
 
 There is a yard inclosed, 75 feet in length and 65 feet in 
 breadth, and another between the house and the street-wall, 
 on the southeily side, about 200 feet long and 50 broad, in 
 which the patients take the air, and amuse themselves. 
 
 The height of the building, from the ground, in front, is 
 about 46 feet. It contains 60 rooms of different dimensions, 
 which will contain about eighty patients. The apartments are 
 adapted for persons of every condition, the rich and the poor, 
 equally subject to this worst of human miseries, who 
 may be here accommodated according to their various cir- 
 cumstances in life. 
 
 From the year 1806, to the year 1810, both inclusive, 342 
 lunatics have been admitted into the asylum ; ol which 150 
 have been discharged, as cured ; 24 relieved ; 75 at the re- 
 quest of friends ; 24 have eloped, and 33 have died ; and on 
 th- first November, 1811, there were 59 patients remaining 
 in the asylum. 
 
History of the Nexv-York Hospital. 13 
 
 The whole number of patients admitted into the hospital 
 from the year 1792, to 1810, inclusive, is 13,753, of these 
 9,227 have been cured ; 886 relieved ; 646 discharged, at the 
 request of friends; 458 as disorderly ; 187 sent to the alms- 
 house ; 517 eloped, and 1676 have died — 266 patients re- 
 mained in the Hospital, at the end of the year 1810. 
 
 From the 1st February, 1792, to 31st January, 1795, a pe- 
 riod of 3 years, 1221 patients were admitted, and 1169 dis- 
 charged. From the 31st January, 1795, to 31st December, 
 1803, a period of 9 years, 4,760 were admitted, and 
 4,744 discharged. From 31st December, 1803, to 31st De- 
 cember, 1810, a period of 7 years, 7,772 were admitted. 
 This simple statement sufficiently shows the great and increa- 
 sing utility of the institution ; and it can scarcely be necessary 
 to expatiate on the public good derived from its establishment. 
 
 Its benefits are too obvious to every benevolent and reflect- 
 ing mind, to require the aid of particular description. Not- 
 withstanding the provisions of the poor-laws, made for the 
 relief of the indigent, in the different towns and counties, and 
 the numerous charitable associations, public, and private, 
 which reflect so much honour on the state, so numerous are 
 the objects which solicit the aid of the benevolent, to mitigate 
 their distress, so various are the accidents of life, and so di- 
 versified the forms of human misery, that such an institution is 
 indispensible in the great system of public charity. Various 
 causes conspire to render public hospitals peculiarly necessary 
 in a great city, the capital of a commercial, populous, and 
 flourishing state. It is there adventurers, and persons from 
 distant countries resort, to better their fortunes, or to engage 
 in more congenial pursuits. It is the capital which receives 
 most of the emigrants from foreign countries, driven from 
 their homes by poverty, misfortune, or crime ; or impelled to 
 seek, in a distant land, a more secure enjoyment of political 
 and religious freedom, or a more advantageous exercise of 
 their various trades and professions. The immense business 
 carried on, in such a commercial and growing city, in naviga- 
 tion, ship-building, architecture, manufactures, and all the 
 auxiliary arts and trades, while it attracts great numbers from 
 the neighbouring states in search of employment, and the pur- 
 suit of gain, must give rise to frequent accidents and diseases, 
 for which many, who are destitute of friends or relations, can 
 find no cure or relief but in a public hospital. 
 
 There is another point of view in which this Hospital may 
 also be regarded, as an institution of great public utility. The 
 
1,4 Historij of the New-Tor k Hospital. 
 
 central position of this city, in regard to other parts of the 
 the United States, and its easy and convenient access, at all 
 seasons, renders it an admirable situation lor the establish- 
 ment of an university of medicine. These natural advan- 
 tages, though they have not, perhaps, been improved, as they 
 ought to have been by the body of medical professors, have 
 not been wholly overlooked, and the progress now making in 
 the different branches of science, and in collecting the most 
 extensive means of instruction, bids fair to give che medical 
 school of New-Tor k y a superiority over any other in the 
 United States. Besides the various literary and scientific in- 
 stitutions in the city, the Hospital library, the valuable anato- 
 mical preparations of Dr. Post, professor of anatomy in Co- 
 lumbia College, the large and increasing cabinet of mine- 
 ralogy, belonging to Dr. Bruce, and the extensive botanic 
 garden, established by Dr. Hosack, lately purchased by the 
 state, furnish to students, excellent means of acquiring 
 an accurate knowledge in those different branches of science. 
 To this medical school, the Hospital is a powerful and al- 
 most indispensible auxiliary, by affording the best opportunity 
 to students to improve themselves in the practice of medicine 
 and surgery. To promote this important object, permission 
 is given to the students who attend the lectures of the different 
 professors in medicine and surgery, in the colleges, to see the 
 practice of the Hospital, and to attend the clinical lecturers, 
 who daily visit it, during the period of their clinical instruc- 
 tion. 
 
 The first course of clinical lectures was delivered by Dr. 
 Samuel Bard, of Columbia College, and they were suces- 
 sively continued by the late Dr. William Pitt Smith, and 
 Dr. John R. B. Rodgers, the present physician of the port. 
 Since the establishment of the college of physicians and sur- 
 geons in the city of New- York, the professors of both colleges, 
 being physicians of the Hospital, equally enjoy the benefits of 
 this institution, for the purposes of clinical instruction. The 
 present lecturers are Dr. Hamersley and Dr. Miller. Dr. 
 Seaman, one of the surgeons of the Hospital, also delivers 
 clinical lectures on surgery, during the winter season, and the 
 governors permit him to use the theatre for that purpose. 
 
 Founded and supported on the principles of the Christian 
 religion and general benevolence, without respect to any sects 
 or distinc tions , political, civil or religious, all persons, whose 
 maladi HB render them fit objects of such a charity, 
 arc considered as equally entitled to the benefits of this Hos- 
 pital.

 By this humane and useful institution, the rich and bene- 
 volent have it in their power to alleviate the real and un- 
 affected miser>- of the poor, with the pleasing assurance, that 
 while they are indulging the finest feelings of the heart, and 
 fulfilling the great duty of Christianity, their charity will not 
 be abused, nor their bounty misapplied. Indeed, when the 
 object of this bounty, and the manner in which it is bestowed, 
 are considered, it must be a consoling reflection, that in no 
 other way could private or public contributions be so efficaci- 
 ously and beneficially applied, or produce so much real and 
 unmixed good to the community.*

 To all to whom these Presents shall come, Greeting : 
 
 WHEREAS our loving subjects, Peter Middleton, 
 John Jones, and Samuel Bard, of our city of New- 
 York, physicians, by their humble petition presented unto 
 our trusty and well-beloved Cadwallader Colden, Esq. 
 our Lieutenant Governor, and then our commander in Chief, 
 of our province of New- York, and the territories depending 
 thereon in America, and read in our council for our said pro- 
 vince, on the ninth day of March, which was in the year of 
 our Lord one thousand seven hundred and seventy, did, 
 among other things, in substance, set forth, that there had 
 been a subscription set on foot by them, for the purpose of 
 erecting a public Hospital in our said city of New- York, and 
 that sundry public spirited persons, influenced by principles of 
 benevolence, had liberally subscribed towards the same ; that 
 from the manifest utility of such an infirmary, the petitioners 
 hoped for further contributions, and that some very consi- 
 derable donations had been then already promised, in case the 
 success of the Institution should be rendered probable ; but 
 that the said monies could not be conveniently collected, or 
 the design prosecuted with vigour, unless a corporation should 
 be formed for that purpose ; and therefore the petitioners 
 humbly prayed our Letters Patent, forming a corporation for 
 the purposes aforesaid : now we, taking into our royal consi- 
 deration the beneficial tendency of such an Institution within 
 our said city, calculated for relieving the diseases of the indi- 
 gent, and preserving the lives of many useful members of the 
 community, are graciously pleased to grant the said humble 
 request of our said loving subjects : know ye therefore, that

 Hospital, and to nominate and appoint other or others in their 
 places and stead. And we do further, of our special grace, cer- 
 tain knowledge, and meer motion, for us, our heirs and suc- 
 cessors, grant and ordain, that when, and as often as any pre- 
 sident, vice-president, governor, treasurer, secretary, phy-

 patients as he thinks proper, or allow them, under such restric- 
 tions as he shall judge necessary.

 register, in which shall be entered every case under his care,

 tient, the probable cause and history of his disorder, the re- 
 medies used, the termination of his disease ; and such other 
 circumstances as may tend to elucidate the case, and the nature 
 of the disease — which register shall be kept in the asylum, un-

 N. B. It may be proper to observe, that few patients apply 
 for admission into the Hospital, until every other resource has 
 been exhausted, and their diseases advanced to their worst 
 stages ; and many who meet with sudden accidents, are often 
 brought to the Hospital, in an incurable state, and die of 
 their wounds or fractures, a short time after their admission. 
 
 But notwithstanding the increased number of patients du- 
 ring the last three years, the number of deaths has considera- 
 bly diminished.
