hundred families o( the labonriog dam, sone of them very
low in chmrseter, and living in the worst parse of a crowded
city, a mess has never come before me of a woman being ems
brought before the magistrates, still less sent to prison.
Since, daring the last sixteen men, that aarminianos has
been extended to the very lowest families that could be
brought under the notice of the city missionary or the
master of a ragged school, only one ease of a woman being
in prison has ever been beard of among them. A much
shorter acquaintanoto with girls in • reformatory has dis-
closed various cases of wretched mothers being in prison,
whose progeny bad sprung up as mach amt off from all
Christian or civilised influences as if they bad been born in
a heathen country. These pox women, these female cam-
Tian will, we believe, usually be found to belong to a
pariah class, which exists is our state es a something fear-
fully rotten and polluted, and which diffusive ite apes poi-
we around, undermining the vary foundations of society.
This foul understnaum will never be removed from our
midst by any legislative emetments, any laws, however
these may be needed to keep it within °Mall Donnas. It
can be peon irated and itted into moiety only by that
maw of Christian love which ma dad :is way into the
darkest corners of the earth, aided by the varied means of
social renovation in which this age is so milk—Mies Car-
pester in Praser's Magazine for January.
