A WORD TO ENGLISH WOMEN.—If one hundred
housewives, out of all the towns and villages in England,
were to spend £5 per month in this way while the dis-
tress lasts, the £5OO per month so laid out would clothe
the greater'number of the needy people, without any hurt
to anybody ; for, however good-natured the shop-
keepers may be (and they are good-natured, as a
class), we must remember that it is an advantage to
them to clear off their stocks in this way. Is it not reason-
able to believe that so many as this of our countrywomen
will go to their own tradesmen, at their own time, and lay
out their money according to their own judgment, in quiet
and independence? To me it seems that this suggestion
embraces exactly those homely housewives who dislike
committees, and subscriptions, and publicity, and disputes.
They can get the money from friends of their own sort,
when they have not enough of their own; they will cut out
their purchases at home, and send them off to some Relief
Committee in Lancashire, paying the carriage, and feeling
conscious that there is not an inch of rubbish in the package)
nor anything about it which can damp the pleasure of the
poor young women in setting to work upon their gowns, or
their fathers' shirts, or their mothers' caps, or the children's
pinafores. I understand, in fact, that the proposal has
been already widely adopted. Moreover, it has caused an
appeal to be made in several newspapers to drapers, all over
the kingdom, to look out their unsaleable goods, and rem-
nants, and whatever they please to give, towards the sup.
port of the Sowing-schools. No doubt this appeal will be
kindly met; and it is a way in 'which a most substantial
and extensive good may be done, at the smallest sacrifice
on any hand.—Once a Week.
