This Institution is designed to supply a great national
want, 'viz, an asylum for the orphan daughters of sailors in
the Royal Navy and Merchants Service and of Marines.
It clothes, maintains, and educates them for domestic
service and provides a home free of expense for former
inmates while out of situations, thus shielding them from the
temptations they might otherwise be exposed to.
The Committee earnestly APPEAL for CONTRIBU-
TIONS to meet the increasi ,g applications through the
recent storms and loss rd life at sea, and: o enable them
eventually to obtain premises more commensurate with the
necessities of this great maritime country, which loses 2,000
sailors annually by casualties alone, without including those
who may perish by war.
Subscriptions thankfully mew by the bankers, Messrs
Barclay, Bevan, and Co., Lombard-street, and by the Secre-
tary, at the Offices, No. 77, CornhilL

The mode of admission to the House is twofold,
Ist. By election of the subscribers. Boys thus admitted
are received free, boarded, clothed, educated, and taught till
they are 11 years ot age.
'With the view t o secure the election of the most deserving
cases, the Committe have from the first discouraged canvas-
sing, and they do not print any addresses of the subscribers.
The voting papers contain a description of each case, as care-
ful y investigated by the Committee, and with this informa-
tion the subscribers are able to judge for themselves as to
those most eligible for free admission.
This Home was opened in April, 1864. It was designed to
take its the little ones whose charact r and circumstances
disqualify them for the Orphan Asylums, and whose tender
age precludes their admission to the Refuges. Such are these
who, from neglect, are already on the road to ruin. Such are
those who have been deserted by their natural protectors and
left to beecome idle wanderers. Such are those whose
parents may have at one time or other received parish relief,
and who are now friendless orphans. Such are those whose
parents are breakers of the law, or are in prison, and who
train their children in the same path. Such are those whose
evil associations have already had their painful effect, and
must lead them to a life of crime and misery.
There are now 50 little inmates from about four years of
age to 10. There is room for nearly 10'. and the Committee
would joyfully see the Home filled at once ; they only wait
for the necessary subscriptions.
The Committee feel constrained to plead for those who
cannot thus plead for themselves ; and, referring to the cir-
cumstances of some who have been already admitted, they
tell ildin

word to them, to befriend them, to speak a kindly
to house and clothe th,,m ?
Shall we leave them still on the doorstep,
other side, or else exclaiming „ Passing by on the
Am I my brother's
keeper ?"
The necessity for an Institution for these little ones is ev
i-
dent from the police statheics, which show that in London
alone, in one year, no fewer than 311 boys under 10 years of
afze, have been apprehended for various offences, 79 of whom
convicted aad punished, while the werebulk, 232 were dis-
chargedaeistrates with a rebuke, by the M as being too
young to punish. though not too young
of crime. On the other hand,
there are numbers who, but
for the timely help afforded by such an Institution, must
otherwise become paupers, and losing all ideas of self-reli-
ance and self-help, be permanent burdens to the State.
The Home for Little Boys has, therefore, been established
to rescue the little ones, to save them from the prison on the
one hand, and the workhouse' on the other, and to endeavour
to make them useful members of society.
The daily routine of the ins itution presents all the fea-
tures ot a home, a school, and a workshop. The little ones
are cared for as children ; they have their regular meals,
their suitable clothing. their hours of play and amusement,
and their singing class. 'They are treated as scholars ; every
morning is devoted to school work—reading, and writing,
and cipherin,r. and Scriptural instruction, with occasional
lessons in otjects and other subjects. But they are also
trained to work. As they must all, and that at a very early
period in lite, earn their living by the sweat of their brow,
they are here at once taught habits of industry. So the after-
noons are occupied with various industrial occupations—
making brown paper bags for bankers, and white paper bags
for tradesmen, and door mats and servants' kneelers for any
who will buy them ; picking the coil for ihe mats, mending
the c othes, &c. Some assist the master in the garden,
digging, planting, watering, weeding, and so forth. By
degrees they are being made useful in the house, scrubbing
and sweeping, while the elder ones clean all the boots,
knives, &c. In this way it is sought to fit them for an active
working Ili e.
2d. By payment of ss. a week, made quarterly in advance.
All children must be under 10 y..ars of age at the time of
admission. Those received on payment are admitted at any
time as soon as approved by the Committee,
Elections of children to be admitted free will take place as
frequently as the increase in the annual subscriptions will
admit, till the Home is full; they will then be held periodi-
call
Foy rms of application for the admission of children may be
had at the Home, and 91 the Honorary Secretary,
