LEICESTERSHIRE. 
The Governors of the Leicefter Infirmary, 
for the Sick and Lame of ail counties, in con- 
fequence of the peculiar preffure of tne times, 
were obliged, in the yeir 170, to reduce the 
number of 
fame caufe, have been obliged to continue 
this redu@ion till laft year. From the daily 
Browing daft trefles, however, of the. poor, and 
Lincolnfoire—Leicefter foire—Rutiand. 
"wife of S. Worthington, efq. the prefent 
beds from 54 to 4°, and, by the. 
[October 2 
the annually increafing applications, the Go- 
vernors have lately ventured to enlarge the 
extent of their charity, and have reftored te 
fuffering humanity fome of thefe beds which, 
for the laft five years, have remained unoc- 
cupied and ufelefs. Laft Midfummer they 
increafed the number of beds from 40 to 46, 
and, trufting to the fuccefs of their intended 
prefling application to the public, have agreed, 
at their laf annual meeting, to venture on 
an immediate addition of 10 beds, and to in- 
creafe the number to 50. ‘To the General 
Infirmary has lately been added another chas 
ritable inftitution, equally important and be- 
neficial. An Afylum, in a feparate building, 
has been opened for the reception of that mof 
heiplefs and pitiable clafs of mortals, poor lu- 
natics; but it is much to be lamented that it 
has not yet received that degree of encouragee 
ment which might have been reafonably ex- 
pected, and, without which, it cannot long 
be fupported in fuch a manner as the benevo- 
lent muft with. The afylum is capable of 
receiving twenty patients, but for want of an 
adequate fund from donations and annual fubfcripe 
tions, it is, at prefent, opened upon a more 
contracted fcale, and can receive only fours 
teen, for each of whom the.Governors are 
obliged to demand a payment of ten fhillings, 
weekly, till fuch time as the bounty of the 
public fhall have fuffictently increafed their 
refources. They flatter themfelves, how— 
ever, animated by fome recent fymptoms of 
improvement, that they fhall foon be. enabled, 
gradually, to augment the number of pas 
tients, and, at the fame time, to reduce the- 
weekly demand for each, as was done in the 
fimilar infitutions at York and Manchefter. 
Thefe improvements, when realized, will 
give the full advantage this charity 1 is sapable 
of producing.
