THE N YORK HOSPITAL. The following claborate report upon the gite, construe- tion, ventilation, and sanitary condition of the New-York Hospita) was made by Dr. Eliehs Herris, to whom the mstier was referred by the Sanitary Superiutendent, and was sddressed 10 Lim: ** In complianee with your officie] reference of @ resolntion tle Board of Health baviog in view a and jrea pecin] pan.tary v into the hygienic condition of the New. ork Hospit ceded to that institution asd instituted X #ueb fuguiries as W cticable, on Tharsday, and to-dsy (A il 33) have completed il the investigatioas Whick are es- seLtial 10 ihe basis of 8 Tepor the questions submitted. NUMBEK AND CONDITION OF PATIENTS. ‘There were 245 patients in the wards, distril d as follows: % P outh, ard 60 in the main building ond £ 1 These presented the ususl as- ctwand variety of wounds and diseases which have been wrd 1o that Hospital ot this period of the vear in former G ward was overcrowded. and most of the wards were, st the time of my two visits. free from offensive odors. WARD ENDAMI'S AND LOCALIZED DISEASE. . Though X wade diligeut search for the evidences of any en- &en e divesse, or any nfection or contagion that in any way Jeriaine to or igueres in the Hospital or upon the Hospital §reund and premises. 1 gladly state that there is at present no Jr0cf tuet the Hospital or locality is in any mauner Sctualy infected by any morbid poison or infection of Qisenes. Jt s truc thai there is ome caso of Erysipeiss in one of fie bulldinge, but that was the disease of he patient when adwitied day before yesterday. 3 weuld eall attention to the fact that Erysipelas or etber sources and kinds of morbid poisons are introduced or sduwitted to the hospitals usder the authorigation of the Gov- @rLors in their contract with the Government authorities for Sbe teatment aud care of sick and woandoed svamen. The Tyy nd the Erysipelas which to-day are found in the New York Hospitsl are tracesble solely to the seamen so sdmitted; butin the caee of Typhus I examined, in the North buJdiog, the fever bad already aitacked & nurse of one of the faver ceses which had been adwitted from tbe ship John Bright. “TLis cuse illustrates the bistory of the morbid poisom or infec. ticus aud contagious that, from time to time, find their way sutc the New-York Hospital. In beequent section of this weport 1 abnll feel compelled to present ti sbst may not be fully acceptable to all phyel wiews 1must express are those which Hygiene presents, and Mumanity as well as economy demand to be taken. SIONTANEOUS ORIGIN OF*INFESTION IN THE WARDS. 1 will not ventore any uncertainty in my statements on this goivt. The medical and sureical staff of that Hospital alone 8 cowpetent to express & positive opinion on this subject. So far us I have gained positive knowledge relating to the expe. #'ence of the Lospital, the fact appears to be that in & large proportion of inetances in which any kind of infection or dis- esse bas becowe localized, or spread in the wards, that ticolar disease and that local epidemio has been olearly to s oase that was admitted to the Los- ita) with the malady that Las thus spread to the other pa- ts. But it should be borne in mind that this does not prove the + quistence of actual contagion. It merely proves the sequence of fucts, and indicated the existence of some important relstion Detween thew. With that relation the bygienie inguiry is woet concerned. The chief causes of such locelizing cond| s o render the development and spread of ward epidemics jtable or even possible are known. They exist in every ge Loepital of 0 construction. They have always ex- Setes ip the New.York Hospital even when it was & bospital in ke open fields, and in the days when that section of the city wos ucerewded and a purer atmosphere than the present sur- younded the bospital grounds. For example, we find that in he year 1638, ihe Governor appoiuted o special committee to fuvestigate the canss of epidemics of Eryripelas in the Hos- pital._In that report we find set forth the same facts which we ‘would te-day present ig yegard to thiseubject.

No locality fouth of Fourteenth-st. would a much more salubrious site for hospital, yet there is every reas belleve that the stmospbere surrounding the Lospital is, like the air in the deusely built districts of the city, ro contam- inated by organic efflavia nnd the various gases which are in themselves active sources of insalubrity, that it effects disad- vatageously the results of surgical and medical treatment in the wards. But let it be borne in mind that the statement bas reference to the single and abso sgency of contaminated alr in this densely-built city; while, relatively, as regards any locality from whence the patients are taken, in the at- here surrounding the City Hospital there is, in most cases, certainly no sach disadvantage. Mere opinion upon such a subject should be substantiated by endeometrical analysis. Iu the ubscuce of thews tests of chemistry upon the epot we must rely upon collateral evidence. “The sinoke, the gases, the vapors and efuvia that contami nate the f all the compactly built portions of the city are obWous to the senses, aud it is fortunate for the New-York Hospital that the attitude of its site gives it aavantages over ell the down-town localities. But it is due to the Doard of Health that makes the inquiry, that this report sbould tate briefy the facts which recent {1quiries bave established con cering the actual contamination of the air i cities, ad the relative impurity of such sir as compared with the out-of-town atmospbere. In appendix C of this report are presented the wore importast facts which chewmistry Las positively demon- strated. The report was accompanied by the most claborate ap- es—three in number—and was referred to Dr, Stone of the Sanitary Committee. A PROTEST FROM YORKVILLE AND HARLEM. Mr. H. P.

Lord of the Metropolitun Sanitary Polico made a report to the Board of Health of the naumes of a number of wilkwen who were discovered in the act of adulteratis, their milk at the intersection of Forty- ecighth-st. and Lexington-ave. He states that they use o proportion varying between four and eight quarts of water to 10 quarts of wmilk, and gives the following names of milk venders who have becn seen in the wet: P. Labr, H.

CLOSB OF THE ITALIAN OPERA. The Italian Opera after a varied fortune during a fow pust weeks, closed very brilliantly. The **Star of the Nortl” attracted o crowded audience on Friday evening, and the matinée on Saturday, at wiich “Les Huguenots” was given, presented an array of Lesuty and fashion which filled the Academy of Music to ite ntiost capacity. Mr. Maretzek's seasons up to Decewber last must have been immensely profitable, The subecriptious were large, and the outside public rushed in to Lear the massive grandenr and passionate cadences of L'Africaine, and enjoy the fun and the sweetuess of Ricel's music in Crispino € 1a Comare, so that the iansgement profited largely by o success which was entirely cgitimate, The Spring season uot, however, so fortg. nate, Bad weather first intervened, then followed the season of Lent, which io all past experienec Las proved very unfavor- able to the fortune of places of amusement.

The grand concert at St. Stephen’s Charch, given in ald of the bmlding fand for the paymeut for the enlarge- ment of the cburch, was vesy largely attended, nd as the price of the tickets was three dollars, @ very handsome eum must have been realized, This church is admirably adapied to afford full gnd free prodaction of tose both by voices and instraments, g0 that whenever attists Who hage been heard in the Academy—~which is very unfavorable to voeal develop- ment—appear St. Stephens, the difference of effect is their tone being absolutely doubled, while g W foot case, and free commard of color aund exprossion, This was folly evidenced in the performances of Miss Adelaide Philiips, Mazzoleni, Bellini and Autonneci.

The first of a series of concerts, in connection with Odell's uew orgnn, took place at Irving Hall on the 15th inst. The stoppage of the rail cars interfercd sadly with tho attend- auce at all places of amusement, and this concert suffered from tLe same mnconvenience. Mrs. Marle Abbott saug with Mr. Castle iu Perring's charming doet, ** How long wilt thou forget me, Lord,” 0 tastofully and effectively that a wnani- wous encore was the result. We have rarely heard Mr. Castle bis beautifel voice was in fine order, and Le sang with both power and expression, His solo from St. Paul and bis daet with Mr, Lumbard wore received with signal faver, Mr. Luwbard's singing on this occasion fally jastified the praise we recently bestowed upon tim. He bas u truly mag- nificent voice, ard be uses it with much skill. He sings tasto- fully and expressively, and bas a Jost (eeling for dramatio effect. He was warmly encored in bis duct with Mr. Castle, and aleo iu & very charming song wiltten for biw by Mr. Geo, 'W. Morgan, to words by Barry Cornwall, which Le rendered very beautifully. There aecis to be assurance of o flrat-class coveert singer in Mr. humbard; such o volee as his bas long been needed, and he will fully supply that need, if Le coutinues to study diligently and iotelligently. Mr. G. W. Morgan played Bacl's Fugue in G minor w be always does, but dry Fugue's are uot relished by the gen- eral public, being regarded as mere tests for players’ ability to execute dificulties. The public cannot be blamed; they judge by the enr apd the sensations, while the form, coustruction, and-working of tbe Fugae, appeal solely to educated and re- fined musiciars, who see in its apparent dryness the boundless resources of invention and science. Mr. Morgen's perform- ance of Weley's Offertoire calied forth a perfect storm of ap- Pleuse, and in reply to the encore ke played *God Save tho Queen’” with briliiaut varistions for maunuals and pedals. This is o masterphece of excontion,. and Was greeted enthysiasii- ly.
