DISTRESS IN THE HIGHLANDS.
We have received the following most distressing ei
count of the state of the poor people at Tobereno .'
:
We mentioned lately that a government vessel N.," in
the bay there loaded with provisions ; but from this
source the unemployed and destitute creatures to whom
the following letter relates derive no advantage, as the
officers in charge of that ship are only authorised to sell
the food on board. We do moat earnestly hope that this
and many similar appeals will open the hearts and hands
of all who have it in their power to render the suffering
and patient people prompt and liberal assistance :
Teberinorry, Dec. 17, 1846.
" I would have written sooner, but the state of our
poor people preventa my thinkiug of or doing anything
else, I did not, indeed, anticipate that so soon the
famine would have appeared with such grievous effects.
There are hundreds now in this little village who have
not a morsel of food, exeept what is given them by those
who have still some t many who have never begged be-
fore are almost famished before they leave home to ask
for food t end some have been a day, or two days, or even
more, without food. One person, well known to 135, had
been from Saturday morning till Monday afternoon ,
without a mouthful. Three of a family subsisted two
days on a very little milk given by a half-starved cow
which inhabits the same room with themselves. A
household of four grown persons had nothing but one
brown biscuit divided among them for a day, and most
respectable well-behaved people, The children may be
heard outside crying for food, which the miserable
parents have not to give, We dread the dependent
spirit that may be fostered atoong them by giving them
aid without any return, though 4t present, when there is
no work for man or woman, what Gan he done ? I have
not space to tell of the many sad cases that auround us.
--'s meal was a most seasonable supply, from which
twenty famishing families got aid. At present the snow
aggravates our distress, as it prevents draining, in which
a few of the people could get employment, I want to
know if you can help us in getting work for the women;
they can card, spin, die, knit, and weave ; most but not
all, can spin flax. Let no tin)P he lost for human lives
are et stake. They will he perishing aholit our doors
ere long, if something is not done. Our poor people
are naked as well as hungry, for all their means have
one to purchase food for their children, and anything
in the way of clothing would be rvanivgcl with much gra-
