must, without such industrial improvements, submit to pay higher
prices for food, consequent upon numbers having to be supported in
idleness out of the general stook. That the tendency of the means
adopted by the Patriotic Society is to effect these Improvements, is
beyond all question, and it solicits the Investigation of the intelli-
gent community, the principles Involved, not being matters of indif-
ference, but lying at the very foundation of national prosperity and
safety.

The Society for the Improvement of the Condition of the Labour-
ing Classes having met with entire success in three different efforts to
provide batter dwellings for the labouring poor, is now desirous of
commencing a new attempt, of, it may be hoped, a still more impor-
ant character. _

Its past operations have been as follows :-
1. A range of cottages, on a site where cottages only were admis-
sible, called Model Buildings, in Bagnigge-wells. These are now oc-
cupied by married couples and aged females, whose rents are paid
weekly, with great thankfulness for the cheap and wholesome lodg-
ings provided.
2. Three houses repaired and thrown into one, in Charles-street,
Drury-lane, wherein clean and proper accommodation is found for 80
working men.
3. The Model Lodging-house. for single men, built expressly for
the Society, in George-street, St. Giles's. In th;s house 104 single
men are provided with separate sleeping apartments, and every other
desirable aceommedatien, at the eharge of 4d. per night.
All these establishments are full, the rents are regularly paid, and
the inmates are very thankfhl for V,e advantages they receive. The
number of persons now tenanting the Society's houses is 320, while
in various parts of the country their allotment tenants are 556.
These three undertakings, therefore, while they return a fair and
adequate rental for the capital laid out, are producing important be-
nefits to the working classes, and are compelling improvement in
lodging-houses generally.
But there is a very numerous and important class, for whose be-
nefit great efferts ought to be made. The mechanics and other la-
bourers, occupied in the heart of the metropolis, and having wives
and families, who are compelled to dwell in localities where employ-
ment is to be found, surely demand some consideration.
The Committee desire forthwith to make an earnest attempt to
meet the wants of this interesting and important class of persons.
They at present have in view two sites, in the very centre of the me-
tropolis, either of which would admirably answer the purpose.
They are endeavouring to gain possession of one of them, but it will
be necessary, in order to their effecting this object in a proper and
sufficient manner, that they should first raise a sum of 5,0001 or
6,0001., which will obviously be required to erect any building of such
extent as te to serve as a model for future undef-takings. fence a
public appeal must be made, since the whole of the Sociecy's funds
have been exhausted in the completion o: the three works above enu-
merated.
The Committee believe that with the Christian public of this coun-
try no further plea need be ased than that of the duty and impor-
tance if benefiting the poor, especially with respect to their dwellings.
Still it cannot be out of place to remark, that while measures for the
improvement of the health of the metropolis are urged on every side,
there can be ne measure so effectual for this purpose as that of ex-
changing the wretched abodes, into which the poor are now too often
crewded, for well-planned, well-drained, and properly ventilated ha-
bitations. The Committee believe that this can be dine even at a
lower rate of charge for rent than that which the labourer is now
often forced to pay, and they entreat the affluent and the charitable
to give them the means of still further demonstrating this important
feet by actual experiment. It cannot be tee eften repeated, that
while our poor are forced, as at present, to crowd together, all ages
asd sexes in the same sleeping apartment, the preservation of either
health or morals is rendered all but an impossibility.

EASTER'S
A SNG.
Once more the dull Winter has bid us " foGd bye,"
And the holiday season of Easter is nigh;
A thousand attendants in spring's hapPY train,
Remind us that Easter is coming again; And eyes glisten brightly,
and joyous hearts burn,
At the glad indications of Easter's return.

RETURN.

A general bustle distinguishes trade ; ,
And full preparations are every where time' SOS,
Only see the tamed warehouse of MOSES and Sv..
Where every thing tells us that spring J., begun:
And where all that the visitor's eye can discern,
Proclaims the glad tidings of Easter's return.
E. MOSES and SON, at a time such as this.
Are never deficient, and never remiss.
The fashions of winter are all cast aside,
And articles fit for the spring are supplied.
Coats, Trousers, and Waistcoats, which no
one can Spurn.
Arc stored in abundance for Easter's return.

And see how the public are flanking to buy,
As the holiday season of Easter draws nigh.
For MOSES and SON ever make it a rule
To act on the laws of economy's school :
And increased approbation they constantly
earn,With good dress and cheap dress for Easter's return.
