ASSOCIATION FOR THE REUSE OF THE MANUFAC• TURING AND LAROURING POOL — Collections Will we understand, be generally made throusbout the coun. try, on the ensuing Day of Thanksgiving, in behalf of the Association for the Manufacturing and Labour ing Poor. The object of this Institution is to benefit the poorer classes, by general measures of relief, to prevent the occurrence of want, by directing their la bours to the sources of poverty, by economizing and increasing the common stock of food, protibting the interests of the British fisheries, by encouragements to the fishermen, without direct interference in their con corns, to keep open and increase the consumption for that important article of food, and assist the various public interests connected with that interesting subject. In ibis branch of exertion, they are, we find, now supplying several towns with corned and fresh fish, and ate always ready to afford their assistance when ever it is desirable. 'rids Institution acts as a gene. eel central establishment in the metropolis to the various charities for the poor throughout the king dom, and for attaining those objects of general use fulness, which single efforts cannot accomplish.
