Following, we presume, the noble example of Lord Inchiquin in presenting game for the patients of Ennis Infirmary, a present of 15 pheasants and 10 hares has been forwarded to the Westminster Hospital from his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, for the benefit of the in-patients. A similar benefaction has been received by the authorities of the Charing cross Hospital.
