DISTRESS IN GERnANY.

THE Confidence with which the Committee_fot
Relieving the Distress in Germany and other parts of
-tbe.Contineht, has been honoured by the British Public, is
entitled to its warmest'acknowlechnents. The instructions-
given to the Committees of Distribution appear to have been
strictly attended to, and' the Distributors have fulfilled their
trust with high' honour to themselves, having spared no pains
to acquire the most minute information of the situation Of'
the numenous applicants, to whom they hare apportioned re-
lief, with discrimination calculated to produce the greatest
advantage to the Sufferers.
The London Committee respectfully offers its congratula.
tions to the benevolent Donors in the. United Kingdom, on
this addition to the pleasure which they doubtless received,
while bestowing their bounty, in that it has been rendered so
efficient to the rescue of thousands -from &spilt, restoring
them'to those exertions which revived hope instantly inspired,
and to the prospects of future happiness, in the actual posses-
sion of meaa; .which; but 'a few momths shice,, they had
scarcely hoped to realimi.
-.The Committee respectfully solicits a continuance of the
aid of British Ladies. There is, need of the utmost amount
which can be raised. The.niisery is vast, and the sufferers
Multitudinous, and the largest aggregate of charity will. do
little more than barely reliove and encourage. The exertions
of Ladies on the Continent, not excepting those in the
higher ranks, are unremitting. They see the'misery around
them, and they are the active and willing hands of British
Contributors, and peculiarly know how to make the most
of every part of their bounty, adapting the'gift with conde,•
seending kindness to meet the wants an' sooth the sorrows of
the afflict ed

From all quarters of Germany the warmest expressions of
thankfulness evidence heartfelt gratitude; but the confidence
in British ability, and a corresponding hope in its proved
willingness to impart aid, has led to sucb unreserved disclo-
sures of wretchedness, as show the large donations of this
country to be still inadequate to the accumulated distress.
N.B. The Committee's Sixth Report, with Tables of Dis-
tribution, Statement of Losses and Relief, may be had on ap-
licatitin to Mr. it. Ackerniann, WI, Strand.
