HUNTER’S MEDICAL SPECIALIST FOR JANUARY— TBE FOURTEENTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BXOMP- TON HOSPITAL FOR CONSUMPTION, NEAR LONDUN— REPORT OF THE CITY OF LONDON HOSPITAL FOR DISEASES OF THE CHEST. As these publications have all reference to the same subject, and as they contain a variety of facts relative to a class of diseases which the severliy of our northern climate renders but too common amongst us, we propose to notice them all in the same article. The general in- fereat of the conclusions to which they lead, will justify us im thus treating them. ‘The Brompton Hospital, near London, was founded in ‘1841 by the subsortptions of a few benevolent individuals, Dut did not receive ite charter of incorporation until the year 1850. Its President is the Duke of Richmond, and the hist of its Vice-Presidents comprises some of the highest names in the English peerage, including the Archbishops of Canterbury and York. Previous to the oundaticn of this establishment there was no public in- stitution in or near London where the consumptive pa tent cculd receive the care and lengthened attention which bis case demanded. Indeed, in most instances there was a decided objection, if not a strict rule, existing im most of the public hospitals against recelving a patient Of this sort, at all, the lingering character and almost oer- tain fatality of his disease rendering him » Pariah among the crowd of afficted humanity seeking admistion into these institutions. And yet there was no class of sufferers ‘more entitled to philanthropic oonsideretion than were ‘these patients, The statistics of consumption ia Eogland afford a melancholy evidence of the extent of the evil which the Brompton Hospital was intended to moet. Of the 60,000 deaths which cour every year in England and Wales alone, from slow and lingering diseases, about 36,000 are stared to be due to pulmonary consumption. One-ninth, therefore, of the total mortality at all ages, and more than one fifin of the mortality of adults, are owing to this cause; and as the duration of the disease, taking one case with the other, is about two years, it follows that about 72,000 persons are constantly suffering from consumption, being at the rate of every four persons in every thousand of all ages, and eight in every thousand adults. Again, of the 46,000 deaths ooourring every ) ear in London alone, about 5,600, or one-eighth of the total mortality of the metropolis, at all ages, and little less than one fifth of the mortality of adults, arwes from this fatal disease; and upwards of 11,00 persons—being about one in 170 of the entire popu- lation of the metropolis, and more than one per ceni of the adulte—are constantly wasting away under its lingering attacks. Of these 11,000 cases, about three-fourths oscar {n males, of whom a large proportion are work ingmen, un- able to provide for themselves and families, and uniting in their own persons every conceivable claim to sympa:hy and assistance, In the words of the report,we may add “that as many of these poor suilerers are the acknow- Jedged victims of unventilaved workshops, {ll constructed dwellings, visited atmosphere, long hours of work, and the want of open places for exercise and recreation, £0 ‘they may fairly claim from thelr richer brethren not sympathy alone, but favorable consideration, for the tls ‘whoch their circumstances compel them to endure’”’ It ‘was to palliate the fruitful ecnsequences of these evila,and to provide an asylum tor the poor cousumptive sufferer, that the institution we are now describing was founded by a few benevolent individuals Another odject, that of enabling those who depended upon him to earn their wn subsistence, formod # scarceiy less important aod philanthropic feature of the plan. It is gratifying t be able to state that ibe public promptly recognized the be- nefits Likely to result from the insutution, and that during the sixteen years of {ts cxistonce % has been enabled to extend largely the field of its operations.

Scxpay, Jan. 25—6 P.M ‘The stock market was pretty steady throughout the whole of last week. The changes in prices bave been very iimited, and as holders buy or sell, the fluctuations take place. The operations are confined to three or four leading railroad stocks, and they do not seem to attract ‘any but the professional sireet speculator. The money market continues to improve gradually, but steadily. Call loans are eas!ly negotiated, and the rates tend down. ward. The banks are full of applications for discounts, and money is particularly aotive, without any scarcity, We must look for great activity in business before the lapee of many week’. The severe weathor of the past few days bas kept back a great many vessels on their way from Europe with large cargoes, and the importations have consequently vera limited, Notwithstandmg this diMonity the Sub-Troasury has accumulated considorable specie during the past woek, The general condition of the country is such as to require ® very heavy mportation of _not only all the neoessares, but of all the luxuries 0° life, The bigh prices rating for everything we cat, woar, ani uso in any way, must swell the expenditures enormouly, and it will be impos. sible to avoid unusual extravagance. Fortunately for thove who depend upon this expansion for the perfection of their plans and enterprises, the crodit system has reached a limit from which there is no oscape by slow and steady contraction. The impetus is too groat to be arrested by any ordinary powor, and our progress must continue until broaght up by some violent action, At Present, the apparent prospority of the country is uo- paralleled. To all appearances overything connected with the fiaancial and commerolal world is in # sound and bealthy condition, and every one abundantly adie to mort any expenditure desirable, Kailroad companies jump at once into the highest credit, Stock securities are manufactured with great rapidity, and find ready sale at fabulous pricer, Banke spring up on nearly every corner and in every village taroughout the country, Bayiugs banks are drawing money steadily from the pockets of the laboring classes tp small gums, and losaing it Indireotly to railroad companies through the diifereot \naurance companies coms up in tals are invested in reitrosd bonds Ratiroad companion are fovsd ia high rates for money, and se fast as obtained oxpemtod in improving oid ronce of im extending now ones, All this giver employment to the massos; wagos ralc bigh, fonts, provisioas, silks, Satine, sacor, oyaipagor, cotton, corn, beel, pork, all command nigh prices, waicn are casily and willingly pal’, booause everybody for the smoment has the means to do so, Credit is the bariy and the cause.

They do not pais away with their origiaa- tore, and the country at large 's, therefore, benefitted vast- ly by such enterprise, however ruinous toindividuals. At the present time our progress is of the same obaracter as it ever has bean, and the ‘eault of our present prosperity will be the same, The © ormous expansion ia credits must lead to a corresponding increase in works of public improvement. The extension of our railroads will end for & time ims collapse, and the securities representing the money expended, will to g: cat extent beoome worthless, bus mo one will remove the rails, fill up the deep cuts, or Jovel the embankments, In this view of the case noone” can for a moment doubt our wonderful prosperity. We are not, with all this, disposed to encourage this sort of Prosperi'y. We do not like these periodios! collapses in the financial and commercial world, They ruin our best men, and take a long timo to recover from. The pro- grote mado during the expansion is too dearly bought, and it is @ question if the average advance in a long pe- riod, is as great as would be realized by a more steady onward movement. It is our impression that with all the apparent prosperity about us we are upon the eve of a collapse. All the evidences of prosperity beretofore have nvariably continued up to the very moment of the reval sion, and the whole community has become panic struck by the suddenness of the attack. @ince the inst great ox plosion, we have piled up more than two thousand mil- Hons of paper securities, in the shape of bonds and stocks, issued by Btates, cities, counties, banks, railroad oompa- nies, insurance companies, trust companies, c., which represent a vast amount of property, productive and un- Producttve, but which does not in the aggregate pay threo per cent on the investment. We have this immense amount of bonds and stocks to carry, independent of the usual paper issues of the commercial classes.
