BELEVUE HOSPITAL. – This institution, which has been in successful operation seven years, is situated on Church Hill, Richmond, Virginia, in  delightful, airy position, and is furnished with every convenience conducive to the comfort of patients and the successful treatment of medical and surgical diseases.

 

Rooms have been nicely furnished, suitable t the accommodation of gentlemen who may find it inconvenient to be treated at their private lodgings.

 

Particular attention will be paid to the lying-in wards, which are very commodious.

 

Having been heretofore liberally patronized by owners of slaves, both in the city and country, we can, with increased confidence, call their attention to the great advantages afforded by our "Hospital," for the medical and surgical treatment of SLAVES, and promise to spare no pains to furnish them proper accommodations and every necessary attention.
