This Society has been established, and incorporated by Act of
Parliament. for the purpose of maintaining and educating the
;children of persons convicted of felony, and such boys, under
twelve years of age, as are, by evil connexions and pernicious ex-
ample, beginning to be initiated in the paths of vice.
There are now under the protection of the Establishment
males and 37 females; the latter of whom are trained up for house.
hold work, and sic proper age placed out at service, and the Com-
?allege is happy in beipg able to bear testimony, with very few ex-
ceptions, to the good conduct of those who have been thus dis-
posed of. The male objects are divided into two dames, which
art kept mares' from cash abet. Thom who have been engaged
is nominalpeaea'ceo not being allowed to associate with the rest
until they aball appear sufficiently reformed in their principles and
behaviour.
The following Trades are adopted within the Establishment,
namely, Printing, Bookbinding, Shoeraiaking, Tailors'-work,
Lope-nuking, and Twine-spinning, in which the boys serve a
regular apprenticeship under masters provided for that purpose,
and a portion of what they earn by their labour, during such ap-
-1441tp, L constantly set apart to form a fund for their imme-
iport when they leave the Institution, to which a sum is
Usually added by the Committee, according to the character which
Cloy have sustained, to be paid to them after the expiration of six
or twelve months, as the case may be, on their producing a certili-
tate of good. conduct.
The religious education of the pupils, according to the doctrine
and discipline of the Chutoh of England, is carefully attended to,
and a Chapel has been erected on the premises, whereby the in-
convenience that would arise from attending at a distant Church
for the purpose of divine worship is avoided.
This Society is supported by voluntary contributions, by the
profits arising from the above-mentioned trades, and from the
interest of legacies invested in the public Rinds ; and it is earnestly
that when the importance of diminishing the infractions of
igteltilaw, by intercepting at an early age those who are likely to
became its victims, is candidly considered, the Society will be
thought to poems a.powerful claim to general patronage, as well
in the way of pecuniary contribution, as by the encouragement of
its several trades. Whoever may be desirous of acquiring a more
intimate knowledge of the nature and conduct of the Institution,
are invited to visit its Manufactory in St. tzeorge's-fields, where the
printed sootorat and List of Subscribers may be had.
• Donations and Subscriptions are received by the Treasurer?,
Sansael Basanquet, Esq., 73, bombard-stieet ; by the Secretary,
3, Chita-terrace, Lambeth ; and by the Superintendent or Steward,
at the Society's Establishment in St. Goorge's.fields.
