01amorpus!)ire lieutenancy A GENERAL MEETING of the LIEUTE- NANCY of the COUNTY of GLAMORGAN will be held at the Cardiff-Arms Inn, in the town ol Carditl, on Wednesday, the 4ih day of December next, at twelve o'clock at noon precisely, for the purpose of receiving the Lists of Persons liable to serve in the Militia, between the ages of eighteen and forty-five years; and for such other business as shall appear necessary for carrying into execu- tion the laws relating to the Militia. By order of the Lieutenancy, EDWARD PRIEST RICHARDS, Clerk to the General Meetings. Cardiff, 21st November, 1822. To the EDITOR rf the CAMIMIAX. SIn. Swansea, Nov. 19, 18'22. The differences which sometimes divide the supporters of a public charity do not always present a cause for ap- prehension. When the benefits afforded by the institution are unquestionable, the first consideration of every liberal and benevolent mind is, to secure it from injury. Thus, the most alarming dlssentions often lead to beneficial re- sults, by destroying abuses, and by correcting the errors and oversights which had formerly been committed. I cannot, therefore, entertain any fears for the safety of the Swansea Infirmary: on the contrary, I believe that the existing disputes will result in establishing it on a firmer and more respectable fooling than before. It is our duty to take advantage of them, by making such arrangements as are calculated to unite all parties. However the present rules might have been adapted to the situation of the Infirmary when it was first established, it is certain that they now require a complete revision. Experience has proved that some of them are useless; and that others, which had been called for by circumstances of a temporary nature, have now become objectionable. In particular, those which relate to the Committee and to the Medicui Officers, require the most serious consideration. The rule which describes the duties and powers ef the Committee is objectionable, not so much from what it ex- presses as from what it leaves undefined. It neither limits the number of the Committee, nor determines whether the Presidents and Vice-Presidents shall or shall not be, ex- officio, members of that body. The arrangement which lias been made in consequence of this oversight, gives the Committee an excessive and dangerous power. 1 he numbers have been fixed at twenty-one, and the Presidents and Vice-Presidents being connected with them, they are sufficiently numerous and powerful to out vote and over- awe the subscribers. By the attendance of the Presidents and Vice-Presidents, the advantage of an appeal to them at a General Meeting, is frustrated. Thus, except in those extreme cases, which are calculated to interest every sub- scriber, a General Meeting is, in fact, a nullity. The utility and credit of every Infirmary rest so much on the skill and reputation of its Medical -Oilicers, that a proper attention to their feelings is a duty of the highest import- ance. It is necessary that they should be subjected to the regulations of the institution but they must determine for themselves their rules of practice and principles of etiquette and in the event of supposed misconduct, they must by no means be deprived of the invaluable privilege of being tried by their Peers. It is only before a Medical Board that an accused Medical Omcer can properly explain his motives and justify his conduct; and it were equally absurd and unjust to expose him to an incompetent tribunal. But here, ills Ruies of the Infirmary are defective. If then, it be wtshed to remove the present causes of discord,—to establish a good understanding with the respectable part of the Medical Profession,—and to obtain that unanimity which will insure the perpetual prosperity of the Institution,-it will be necessary to secure to the Medical Officers their full respectability, with a proper controul over every thing within their own department; and to limit the responsibility of the Committee, by refering every thing ofextraordmaty importance to a special General Meeting. The following rules appear to be adapted to the accom. plishment of these objects; and they are submitted to the Subscribers for their consideration :— COMMITTEE. 1st. That a Committee, consisting of twelve Governors, be chosen annually at the general meeting three of whom shall constitute a Board, which is required to meet once in each week at least, for the purposes of regulating all matters relating to the admission and discharge of patients, entering new subscriptions and benefactions, the deaths of subscribers, and subscriptions withdrawn examining and discharging accounts current, ordering medicines, inspect- ing the domestic concerns of the Institution, and the con- duct of servants and transacting any other business which does not require to be referred to a Special General Board, 2d. That no President or Vice-President beconsideied as entitled to form part of the said weekly Board. 3d. In case the said weekly Board shall, at any time. observe any impropriety or neglect of duty in any Medical Officer, they are required to send a remonstrance to the Medical Board, stating the cause of complaint; and It such remonstrance do not produce a satisfactory result, any six Members of the said Committee may meet, and, if they think proper, call a Special General Meeting, for the con- sideration of the grievance complained of; at which meet- ing, such steps may be taken, as shall appear to be most conducive to the interests of the charity. 4th. That, in the event of the death or resignation of any Officer of the Institution, six Members of the Com- mittee are required to meet, and call a Special General Meeting forthwith, for the election of a successor. 5th. That six Members of the Committee are required to meet, and call a special general meeting forthwith; a previous written request having been delivered to the weekly Board to that effect, signed by any twelve Go- vernors, including one President or Vice-President, or by the Medical Board. 6th. That all Special General Meetings be convened by advertisement, published fourteen days (exclusive) pre- viously to the days of meeting. MEDICAL BOARD. 1st. That the Physicians allrl Surgeons to the Institution be considered as constituting the Medical Board; and that they be empowered to make such regulations respecting the routine of medical attendance and professional duties as shall appear to them to be most conducive to the general interests of the charity. 2d. That no Pupil be admitted into the Institution unless his introduction be sanctioned by the Medical Board. But that each Surgeon be permitted to introduce two Appren- tices, signifying their names to the Weekly Board. RESIDENT SURGEON AND APOTHECARY. ht. That the present Resident Surgeon stitll, as hereto, lore, be considered as a Surgeon of the Infirmary, and take his professional rank at all consultations, &c. But any future Resident Surgeon is to rank as junior Surgeon, and to he prohibited from private practice under any pretence whatever. 2d. That he may introduce any number of Apprentices to the Institution not exceeding four; one-third of their respective premiums to be appropriated to the Charity, and the Resident Surgeon covenanting with the Trustees to assign them to his successor, in case of resignation. Sd. All Pupils and Apprentices, whilst in the Infirmary, -shall obey the orders of the Medical Board, and comply with all the rules of the establishment. 4th. That the olliee. of Resident Surgeon and Apothecary shall not be the subject 01 an annual election, but deter- minable by a six-months' notice, to be given b.y a Special General Meeting, oc the Resident Surgeon, respectively. 5th. He shall take charge of the medicines, and cause the prescriptions and dressings of the Physicians and Surgeons to be carefully prepared, dispensed, and applied. 6th. In case of any immediate necessity of prescribing for or dressing a patient, who properly belongs to any Physician or other Surgeon who is absent or otherwise ,si -engaged, it shall become the duty of the Resident Surgeon to prescribe for or dress such patient, making a report thereon to the proper Physician or Surgeon the next tune ofbis attendance at the Infirmary. 1 1 am, Sir, your obedient servant, A SUBSCRIBER. nimn «m il «I IIII ii iw MM »»" <nn Ti«in«i|f nit 1. ,h nil ir'ni' MINE AGENT WANTED.

BOWEN, Clerk. nriirvjj £ YAL family> nobility, A GENTltY, and LADIES and GENTLEMEN, llJay rely on it, they will not have a hair fail off or turn grey, by now using PRINCE'S celebrated RUSSIA OiL, as it is so improved with an extra valuable ingredient, through which it has made the Russia Oil the greatest nourisher and preserver to the hair in the universe, will make it grow thick and long, and prevent its falling oir, or ever turning grey, and is such a nourisher to the roots of the hair, Una it' it even has begun to turn grey, will restore Jt again to its natural colour, and, if used often, it will never turn grey again, and is sure to clear the scurf, from infancy to old age, and will always keep the head and hair ciean and beautiful. Gentlemen who have lost their hair, anci have the least sign ot roots of hair remaining, by using regularly, for a few months, Prince's Improvell Russia Oil, with the extra valuable ingredient, will be sure to restore it, and produce a tine head of hair, which hun- dreds have experienced. Even Medical Gentlemen have published, in the Gazette of Health, that Prince's, Russia Oil is superior to any oil for the hair, and will do, in cases ot baldness and weak hair, what can possibly be done Ladies will find Prince's Russia Oil preferable to any other oil tor dressing their own or false hair, as it gives it a natural gloss, softens and curls it. Gentlemen wearing powder ought to use it instead of pomatum. It promotes eyebrows, whiskers, &c. and, through the extra iiii-rediem, it will now always keep pleasant in all climates. Ask for Prince's Improved Russia Oil, with the extra ingredient, and observe "Prince" on the wrapper and seals: and his address, "A. Prince, 9, Poland-street, Oxford- street, near the Pantheon, London," is on the cover of each bottle without, it is not genUllle, [Inti cannot answer the purpose. The ounce bottle 5s. or a large bottle, con- taining live ounces, £ 1, which is a saving; or six lar-^e tor which is yet a greater saving.

Smyth, Perfumer to his Majesty, New Bond-street; llendri'c, Tichborne stre.-t ■ and by most principal Perfumers and Medicine-venders. It is no wonder that Ladies and Gentlemen have com- plained of late of the Russia Oil not being of service to the hair, as they have found out that unprincipled persons have sold them counterfeits. f|t Ladies and Gentle,-ien will he particular, as impostors have made the covers of the counterfeit Russia Oil so much like the genuine, and even imitated the Original Proprietor's name, and also copied the affidavitof theOnginal Proprietor, made before the Lord Mayor; therefore purchasers should be cautious, and have it ot the Proprietor, or of a respect- able Vender. Ladies and Gentlemen residing in the country may be certain of having the genuine Russia Oil, by sending it remittance to the Proprietor it will be forwarded imme- diately by coach. It keeps in all climates-the older the better. Merchants and Captains will receive a liberal allowance forexportation.
