Extract from The Builder."
" We wore shown a short time since a bed room fitted
up by an Earl for his own occasional occupation at the sea-
side, in which every piece of furniture, save the iron bed-
stead, was made of the white wood in question. Dressing
table, washstand, drawers, towel rails, and chairs were as
spotless as the crest of the waves beating on the shore. and
the very height of cleanliness seemed attained."

these funds there would be orphans to be dealt with
whose cases were not now provided for.

Sir. M. IVELLs admitted that that would be the
case, and he therefore suggested that each committee
should send to the other a list of the claims made
upon it, in order that plans might be agreed upon
for all the districts of the metropolis. As far as the
Mansion-house Committee was concerned, he might
remark that in a very short time it would naturally
come to an end, and there was a disposition on the
part of its members to recognise the clergy and
churchwardens of the various parishes as the per-
petual administrators of the fund it had raised. It
would of course be necessary to appoint some regular
and permanent trustees, and the Mansion-house
Committee knew of no other body to whom they
could so well intrust their funds.

The Rev. J. T. ROSWELL presumed the clergy and
church-wardens would be bound by the rules laid
down by the Mansion-house Committee, so that they
would not come upon the fund of the Metropolitan
Relief Association.

The Rev. F. G. BLOMFIELD inquired whether the
Metropolitan Association intended to hand over the
£5,000 it had in hand at once for the purpose of
relieving the claims made upon it.

Mr. T. TILSON said the intention was to make
quarterly grants to the clergy, taking care that each
quarterly grant was duly accounted for before
another was made.

HAssaith said-be had received a-letter from
the Bishop on this point, of which the following
was a part :—" I-think the arrangements contem-
plated about orphans are very good. lam decidedly
of opinion that the only satisfactory plan is to leave
the clergy and local committees to arrange as to the
destination of the children."

Sir M. WELLS hoped that a proper list of orphans
would be made by each committee, so that all
appearance of favouritism might be avoided. From
the lists sent in to the Mansion-house Committee he
had to strike out a large number. There were, he
was sorry to say, many cases in which, although the
father had not fallen under the stroke of cholera,
he was so disabled as to be of no use to his family
for some time.

The Rev. J. RowsELL—He was, in fact, dead to
;hem.

Sic M. WELLS— Yes ; as dead to them as though
death had actually removed him. Many a poor
woman had a little establishment to keep up which
by her own labour she might sustain, but for which
her stricken husband was totally unable to assist
her. He knew many such cases, and they were in
the highest degree distressing.
Lord EBURY proposed, "That the cordial thanks
of the committee be rendered to Sir M. Wells and
Mr. Tilson for the great trouble they have taken
in examining and classifying the list of orphans now
laid before the committee, and that the proposition
of dividing the lists into two portions, as equal as
they can be, for the separate action of the two
committees be adopted."
