" I have not filled to communicate to the of commanding I the regiment in Turkey the liberality with which the Ass,n•iatiou have met my application for it.saistauce to the surviving families by a grant of 4151. " I am glad, too, to express my sense of the admirable arrange ments of the Society, by which the distribution of this stun has been entrusted to the persons best able to judge of the most ju dicious means of administering, in each individual case, to the Permanent relief of the sufferers.-1 have the honour to be, sir, your obedient servant; " F. W. Ftvz-Wvoexu, Captain, "Commanding Depbt Inniskilling Dragoons. " MAW Hon. H. L Powys, Hon. Sec." Case 1,540, W. T.—A buy of the 3:ird Regiment, whose father and mother both died of cholera in Turkey ; a moat distressing case. A weekly allowance granted to the orphan's grandfather, with whom tire boy was left. For the five widows and children of the Bth Inniskillinge an nuities have been purchased, large sums haviug been subscribed for thorn in addition to the grant from this Association; the amount will render them independent for their lives. For the other widows, donations, varying from M. to Int., have been granted immediately on the receipt of official notification of their husbands' death. Most of them were already on the books of the Association, and had been receiving relief fur borne tune: it is proposed to grant them en annual pension as long as they remain Widows and the resources of the Association continue available. CONCLUDING REMARKS. Effectually to prevent the recnr.ence of such distressing scenes as those which gave rise to the formation of this Associa tion, the Committee have had in consideration a plan which it is hoped might tend materially to raise the condition of the soldier's wife, and secure a provision for the soldier's widow. As there is no probability, under existing circumstances, of so raising the pay of the soldier as to enable him when married to apportion a sufficient share of it to his family while he is on ac tive service, the Committee are of opinion that a National Fund should be established, of which the Invested capital of this Asso ciation shall be the foundation, aid to which the public and the soldier shall be Invited to subscribe annually. This fund to provide pensions for widows and orphans, as well as temporary assistance to wife and faintly, who, having become subscribers, may be ordered on active service. The exact subscription which the soldier would be called upon to pay must depend on the amount of public support the National Fund may receive,—it must always be'a very small sum from the soldier; but the Cotninlttee are convinced that the country will approve of this proposed attempt to encourage habits of obedience and prudent foresight amongst the married soldiers of the Bri tish army.
