In compliance with the usages of the Society and the requisi- 
tions of its charter, the Board of Managers, on the revolution of 
another year, respectfully present their Sixth Annual Report. 

' First of all, they would express their gratitude that the benefi- 
cent Providence, which so signally favored the Institution in 
previous years, has continued to prosper its labors. Like the un- 
observed tricklings of the mountain spring, which gather volume 
and power in their fertilizing course, so this Society, from its 
humble and unobserved beginning, has diffused its benefits, and 
gradually expanded its scope and efficiency, until it finds its place 
among the most useful charities in the city. In verification of 
this statement, the records show, that during the first year it 
treated but 828 patients ; the last year the number amounted to 
2,285 ; and the whole number that have received the benefits 
of the Institution, up to the year ending May 1st, 1869, was 
9,257. 

The metaphorical language of ancient prophecy, so happily 
versified by Pope, — 

*^ The dumb shall sing — ^the lame his crutch forego, 
And leap exulting, like the bounding roe/' 



10 SIXTH ANNUAL EEPOBT. [1869. 

appears almost literally fulfilled in the success of modern orthoe- 
pedic surgery. The remarkable cures effected in this Institution 
are referred to, not for sensational effect, but to show what is 
actually achieved by no mysterious, unexplained and unexplain- 
able processes, but simply by the curative powers of nature, 
underatood and scientifically applied. It is at once humiliating 
and ennobling, that the perfection of scientific skill consists in 
the most successful imitations of nature. We are divinely ad- 
monished against philosophies and " oppositions of science falsely 
so-called." But, nature is truth, and truth is nature in their re- 
ciprocal relation and action. These axioms are fraught with 
mighty and beneficial results, which demonstrate their own 
efficacy. They are not dependent upon our ideas, but upon the 
conformity of our ideas to nature. Hence, he who profoundly 
studies nature, and meekly submits his- mind to her instructions 
and guidance, is most likely to discover truth and to become 
most honored and useful. 

It is a generally received opinion, that the science of healing, 
whose history dates back twenty-two centuries, has experienced 
few changes, and made but little improvement. It were nearer 
the truth to say, that it is almost the only art or profession in 
-which there has been much progress. The eighteenth century, 
and the nineteenth thus far, have been conspicuous among the 
•ages, for those discoveries and inventions which minister to the 
•wants of mankind. It is interesting to observe the constantly 
increasing attention that is given to the operations, powers and 
functions of nature. The chief progress made has been in the 
-physical sciences; and it is with these sciences that the healing 
art is closely related, and from which it draws the largest con- 
tributions for its advancement. In literature there lias been but 
little progress. Modern writers do not surpass the ancient clas- 
•sics ; modern orators have not equalled Demosthenes and Cicero, 
and modern poets are excelled by Homer and Virgil. Sculp- 
ture has failed to produce a Phidias or Praxiteles ; astronomy 
has improved very little on La Place ; law has learned little 
since Blackstone and Lord Mansfield, and writera on moral science 
draw their chief inspiration from the old authors. *'But the 
Science of Medicine has advanced with most rapid strides. —
