AMERICAN HOSPITAL.

Applications for admission into the American Hospital must hereafter be made to the American Consul, A. B. Corwine, Esq., who is authorized to grant permits for that purpose.
Notice is also hereby given to persons admitted into the Hospital that after they shall have been pronounced convalescent by the Resident Physician, they will be required to leave the premises, as the institution was established for the benefit of the destitute sick, and not for the maintenance of paupers.
