We are almost tempted to my " much the
better ;" because we have a vivid recollection
hung read, not alone of " what the hospital was ia.
tended to be," bat of what it absolutely coos was. In
consideration of a public grant of 10,0001. a year the
Foundling Hospital, from lons, 1758, to May,
1769, was veil, as the Horsing Chronicle pro-
poses it should again be opened, for a public asylum,
where all "the innocent offspring of guilt might be
meowed" We will give the account of the result
in the words in which the historianhas recorded it.
Oa the 2nd of Jane. 1756, the end day of renal recep-
tion. 117 children were received, end between that day and
the 31st of December athat year, 1,763 were admitted.la

needlewomen, and we adhere to them. Bat we on by
no means decide as cavalierly as the Economist
that a young Englishwoman, under twenty, may

then learn and accomplish the task of a faithful and
industrious will, even though she may in England
