VENEREAL DISEASE.
A copy was received, of a resolution moved by Sir J. Crichton
Browne and adopted at a meeting presided over by the Bishop of
Stepney, to the following effect, viz.:—
" That this Meeting is of opinion that the Diseases, physical and
" mental, resulting directly or by inheritance, from Venereal
" Disease are so serious and numerous that it is desirable that
" there should be full enquiry into the matter; particularly in the
" direction whether there is adequate provision for the treatment
" of the poorer classes in the various stages of the disease, and
" urges that the public bodies connected with the health of the
" people should take action in this matter."
