This Is the committee which Mr. Doage will appoint to- @ay. He has considered that there was no great urry in the matter and that time was necessary consider the names of the best men—that is to say, menu who could give time to the matter.

A PRAISEWORTHY CHARITY. A few weeks ago a number of well known philan~ thropic citizens met together, organized and have since had incorporated the “Metropolitan Throas Hospital.” The necessity for a hospital for the poor of this city, devoted solely to the treatment of diseases of the throat and nose, has long beem felt, as the extreme harshness and severity of our climate predisposes greatly to the production of | this class of ailments. At the “Hospital for Dim | eases of the Throat” tn London over 4,000 out. patients and 200 in-patients are treated annually, aud it is thought by those who are well informed: on such matters that, if generously sustained, the. “Metropolitan Throat Hospital” will in @ few years, afford reliet to at least as large @ number of suffer~ ers. The hospital has been comfortably arra) in all tts aetalis, and with every convenience the treatment of patients in the most approved and sctentific manner. As the institution is sup- ported entirely by private contributions the trus- ees take this opportaumty of appealing to the citi- zens of New York for assistance to enable them to carry out their object, The hospital LR situated at No, 17 Stuyvesant street, near Third avenue. The dispensary department is open from half-past one to tour P. M.; advice and medicine given the ic gratuitously, Donations may be sent tod. W. Alexander, ‘lgeiow, Life Insurance company; to John W, low, No, 65 Worth street, or to any of the board of trustees or officers of the hospital, ABREST OF A FORGER. ‘About one o'clock yesterday alternoon a man presented a check at the First National Bank for the sum of $720, purporting to have been drawn by George Delap.
