" Charity begins at home." 1 wonder is that the
reason why some of the Doreet magistrates are said to
favour taking sme of the prisoners' charity fund to
do good to the young. We shall learn all about it to-

charity is very diffusive, even to the ends of the earth,
are an awful time in putting their hand, into their own

ness in the house, might well start an epidemic, which
commencing with diarrhom, might develop into

an opinion, in the face of the delay in concluding
