INUNDATIONS in .GgIiMAN-Y.—The
,
A - COMMITTEE for•the RELIEF of the SUFFERERS
by the recent INUNDATIONS in GERMANY,. extending
over. the Countries of Baden and Wurtemberg, -the Rhenish
Provinces of Hesse and 'Bavaria, and the. Kingdom of Hano-
ver, venture to appeal to. the British eublic in behalf of more
than FIFTY 'VHOUSAND unfortunate Fellow-creatures,
whose Habitations have been swept away by this calamity, ant.;
who at this inclement season, are wandering about.wnhout
shelter, without clothing, and without food. The utmost
exertions are indeed making by the Benevolent of their own
Country for the Relief of the Sufferers; but so extensive is the
misery, and • so• complete the devastation, that these efforts
alone would effect but little towards diminishing the general
mass of distress. The Committee therefore trust, that in this.
exigence the wonted Benevolence of the British Nation, which
was never yet solicited in vain, will be extended to the many
thousands of perishing human beings whose cause they here
presume to advocate.
The ComMitUte'have=.4) pleasure to state, that they have
