The Hospitals.
The -ooridition and management of oar
Hospitals will doubtless form a subject of '
inquiry .when the new bloods take their j
places in'Parliament. A week or, two back ]
.very serious charges were made bya patient,'
«gainst the management of thc Guildford ]
Hospital by^un ex-p*tient, who, on inquiry, '
we1fold td he a reliable and truthful person, j

for his little boots. The secretary, on the ]
other hand,-is os tall and as brainless as]

written application for a few figures was !
demanded, and that, too, with an air of <

eminent inkslinger mentioned the fact that
he had .inspected a newly-cut lode on a big
Golden lope -show. ^Does it look like a
lode ¿hat \«áll live at ¡a. depth ?" inquired
the interviewer., "I scarcely follow you,"
admitted the Cockney scribe. "Well," said
the other, "what sort of country does the
ore body lie in ?" "Demnably dusty,"
responded the innocent literatenr.
