THE SHERIFFS' FUND.

THE SHERIFFS, strongly impressed with
the great advantages that have resulted from the Mt-
inane Provision which this Fund has heretofore afforded, as
well to the wretched Criminal, as the unfortunato Debtor,
eaitiestiv invite the attention of the Public to its support.
It is obvious that the present season must greatly multiply
the wants and distresses of the deplorable Objects of this,
Fund, and it is proper to state,- for the information of the
Public, that their benevolent... Contributions are applied, from
time to.time, almost as soon as contributed, so 'that no means
remain to meet future claims.

Justice awards punishment to the •delinqktc4t, bUt•liuma-
Pity commisserates the abject wretchedness which acconiph;•
nieE ewat ion. The law also secures the injurctiereditor, by
the caption and imprisonment of the heedless and the fraudu-
lent Debtor, but forbids not the hand of mercy to administer
relief to yieir personal destitution.
The Sheriffs, therefore, most respectfolly request the Aid
of the LibFraf and-Humane to this Fund, with atiassnrance
that their Contributions will serve to furnish a proVisional
Supply .1/Clothing, Bedding, -and othr.r necessaries, to at
least siw prisoners.of both
.Sexes, whose,chief dorisolation de-
pends upon the possession' of- int4lls to dialiaisb the calamities
they now endure:.
