COMMITT7IE.
The Lord ASHLEY, M.P., Chairman.
Tha And Twenty-fonr Clergymen and Gentlemen.
Society for the Improvement of the Condition of the Labe/W-
-il-leases having met with entire success in three different efforts to
to•-", ds better dwellings for the labouring poor, is new desirous of
lan al"einil a new attempt, of, it may be hoped, a still more inapor-
t character•
. pas t operations have been as follows
'"• rule of cottages, on a site wkere oottagee only were minds-
,* •ILealled Model Buildings, in Bagnigge-wells. These are now cm-
by married couples and aged females, whose rents are paid
1.2-IY, with great thankfulneas Mr the cheap and wholesome ledg-
•oul provided.
2):. Three housea repaired and thrown into one, in Charles-street,
kr trHalle, wherein clean and proper accommodation is found for 80
7kint men.
illy. The Model Lodging-house, for single men, built expressly for
to' Society, in George-street, St. Gilee's. In this house 104 single
~_s6 are provided with separate sleeping apartments, and every other
"irable accommodation, at the charge of 4d. per night.
431 these establishments are full, the rents are regularly paid, and
4,
Int:Rates are very thankful for the advantages they receive. The
ill•salber of persons now tenanting the Society's houses is 320, while
o.,,Uri•us parts of the country their allotment tenants are $56.
"'well three undertakings, therefore, while they return a fair and
•,,•`4.ltUtte rental for the capital laid out, are producing important be-
riti to the working classes, and are compelling improvement in
I,tbsl-houses generally.
be-
nefit there is a very numerous aid important class, for whose be-
;"t great efforts ought to be made. The mechanics and other la-
..„ltsrs, occupied in the heart of the metropolis, aud leaving wives
izz fat:lilies, who are compelled to dwell in localities where employ-
is to be found, surely demand some consideration.
The Committee desire forthwith to make an earnest attempt to
t", t the wants of this interesting and important class of persons.
I,,,e,Y„at present have in view two sites, in the very centre of the me-
either of which would admirably answer the purpoee.
I.4usy are endeavoiritig te gain possession of one of them, but it will
booessary, in order to their effecting this object in a proper and
indolent manner, that they should first raise a sum of 5,0001. or
,:rto which will obviously be required to erect any building of such
o-1,-,„•7;nt as to to serve as a model for future undo:takings. Hence a
appeal must be made, since the whole of the Sociecy's funds
3'
s been exhausted in the completion of the three works above inn-
`usrateko
The Committee believe that with the Christian public of this coun-
t no further plea need be used than that of the duty and impor-
o",„.es of benefiting the poor, especially with respect to their dwellings.
•z_oir 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 no measure so effectual for this purpose as that of ex-
Changing the wretched abodes, into which the poor are now too often
Viwdsd, for well-planned, well-drained, and properly ventilated ha-
, tations. The Committee believe that this can be done even at a
tower rats of charge for rent than that which the labourer is now
often forced to pay, and they entreat the affluent and the charitable
0 eve them the means of still further demonstrating this important
by actual experiment. It cannot be too often repeated. that
_ While our poor art forced, as at present, to crowd together, all ages
Ithd sexes in the same sleeping apartment, the preservation of either
40.4.1 th or morals is rendered all but an impossibility.

The trial is ever el " tuna versus Lind.
And by means of the papers, the facts have get wind.
Mr. Sane had kis lawyers. and se had poor Jenny,
Who now, it appears, has I. pay a rare penny.
Two Thoussat Five tandred , beadles all expences,
Is enough to mate Jenny
bereft •f her Dawes.
This nainstrol, whose ramie has made as so Mad,
ling ti pay this amount, having broken her hoed;
Tee. in spite of the Voodoo if eoansel yohesseat,
Jersey Lind is declared to have brakes agreement.
Aid certainly that is a seem charge-
Which sheatll give a bread hint to the public at large.
I have thought since I heard of this action of Bans,
Of the public agreement of MOSES aid SON.
M. MOSES and SON, as yea all mast respond,
Have never been known to ditshononr their toad.
Ie A. whole of their premises, ao matter what,
They've stack to their coatraet, if Jenny has not.
Their Drees•osats aro proofs that they stick ta their tarns,
Am( the whole of their stock this agreeraeat contras.
Their elegant fashion, and quality, too,
Are proofs that they keep their agreement in view;
Aid an action sheald ne'er been entered by Bann,
