class, and of every creed, the following brief APPEAL :
Her Majesty, in Council, has fixed on Wednesday, the 24th inst.,

tion will be favourably regarded by a large portion of the people of
the united kingdom ; and gyen those who do not feel bound to obey

Aser wwar 4.71,1.05,01.11 M,
will feel constrained, by a sense of duty to Him "by whom kings
reign," to humble themselves under the hand of God.
The Committee, formed for no denominational objects, and actuated
by no sectarian spirit. enter into no discussion on the question of
public fasts ; but of one thing they are confident, that on such a day,
and when engaged In such an exercise, the religious public will feet
disposed to embrace the opportunity of giving practical exlsresshm Mb
their sympathy by presenting voluntary offermgs for the support of
the poor, who are now "ready to perish." This Committee would
respectfully and earnestly urge on all den,minations of their ,ellow-
Christians the duty o f giving according to their ability ; and If fa-
voured with the commission, they will faithfully execute It according
to the wishes or the donors. All monies are distributed in harmony
with the catholic and unsectarlan spirit which is the distinctive fea-
tures of this movetrold.
While this Committee address this Appeal to the people through-
out the nation, they venture to suggest to the charitable and
humane, in and around the metropolis, the propriety and practica-
bility of holding meetings on the evening of the 24th hist., and of
presenting their donati •ns on that occasion. To such meetings ti,e
Committee will be happy to send deputations if early notice be sent
to this office.
The general features of the d:stress need not here he dwelt on. The
case is argent—the people are perishing —death is doing its work by
day and by night - the starving and the dying demand Immediate re-
lief—the Providence of God calls " Whatsoever thy hand findeth to
do, do it with all thy might."
