address also deserves notice, and it is a happy
characteristic of her projects, which cannot be too
much commended—namely, her anxious desire to
foster a spirit of independence in all who seek her
counsel and protection. What she desires, and
what we have always heartily desired for our poor
emigrants, and for our poor generally, is that best
of all help, the helping them to help them-
selves. It is not alms that Mrs. CHISHOLM
/1101iCitS for her emigrants, but the means of
enabling them, by their own labour, to earn
their daily bread. Whatever is advanced for
their outfit is to be repaid by the successful
labourers, and the day in which that is accom-
plished is the happiest in the life of the poor.
He who by the sweat of his own brow can earn
his own bread is fulfilling the command of his
CREATOR, and has no cause to look with envy
upon the rich, or to be abashed in the presence of
the great ones of the earth. We are not disposed
for one moment to underrate that charity which
gives and looks for no return. The poor will
always be with us, that the virtues of patience on
the one side, and mercy on the other, may
continually have abundant opportunity to be
exercised ; but, at the same time, that
we give our alms to those who are helpless, let us
not neglect that duty which justice no less than
charity demands from us. Let us do what we can
to enable the strong and the willing—men who
have hands to labour, and hearts to love ; let us
do what we can to enable these to give a fair
day's work, and obtain a fair day's wages, to sup-
port themselves and those little ones GOD has
given to their charge. For her zealous labours
in this holy cause we are grateful, deeply grate-
ful, to CAROLINE CHlstroLm, and we commend her
zeal to the example, and her work to the succour,
of all who have the will and the power to assist
their fellow-men. And not their fellow-men
only. Mrs. CHISHOLM is especially celebrated
as the friend and protectress of female Emigration.
All the arguments addressedin favour of Emigration
generally apply with double force to this peculiar
branch, seeing that at home the sources of female
employment are so few, and so grievously over-
stocked, while abroad the numbers of women are
comparatively few. To those who have not yet
given due thought to these important themes, we
commend the little volume above mentioned ; and
to the Post-office authorities, we trust that the
subject of money orders, will meet with immediate
consideration.
