DISTRESS GERMANY.

WHILE Europe is ekniting in the-iininetliate
prospect
_of 'Peace-, and every heart is devising the
!lost expressive means of giving vent to the generous feelings
which it excites, the COMMITTEE for relieving DISTRESS
in GEkMANY deem it scarcely needful to remind Britons,
that there is no mode of rejoicitaK in prosperity, nO way of
shelving our gratitude to 31mighty Proviitence for the bless-
ing, more noble than the :diet of the distressed, the rescue
of tliosewbo are ready to perish. The necessity, so often
stated, for aid to the Mattering Germans, still exists : touch
has already been done, -and upwards of 80,0001. has been no-
bly contributed, and as promptly remitted, to alleviate the
sorrows, which the happier circumstances of this Country w;11
scarcely enable us justly_totonceircof. But there are mil-
lions of Sufferers to whom the hand of Charity must
yet h:t
extended, to sire life : and never was the Pritcerb, that4'lle
who gives promptly gives double," more applicable than at
prttent. Details of these Distresses will be round in the Re-
ports of the Committee, which, as ss eil as Papers for Churches
and Congregations, may be had at the Landon • Tavern, and
t...keliermantes, 101, Strand, to the number of twenty-bee,
gratis; and above that number, on large paper at is. and
small paper at 2s. per hundred.
