AT a MEETING held at LONDON HOUSE,
on Saturday, December 2, 1843, it was resolved to form
an ASSOCIATION for PROMOTING the RELIEF of
DESTITUTION, and for IMPROVING the CONDITION
of the POOR in the METROPOLIS, by MEANS of PA-
ROCHIAL and DISTRICT VISITING : and after several
intermediate meetings, it was resolved, on Saturday, De-
cember 16, to adopt and circulate the following Address and
Regulations :
The object which this Association has in viewi s, not merely
to administer immediate relief in cases of extreme destitution,
or of pressing want, but to improve the social, moral, and re-
libious condition of the poor, by means which have been tried,
on a limited scale, in certain districts, and which have been
uecessful in proportion to the completeness of the system
lea*loll has been put into operation, and the care with which it
s
been worked. It is obvious that to dispense pecuniary re-
liea indiscriminately, and with reference solely to the apparent
or actual necessity of the case, without inquiry as to the past,
or provision for tie future, is, to say the least of it, but a half
measure of charity,
the very evils and has a tendency to generate or increase
which it seeks to cure. An inquiry into the
causes
e
of distress, and into the best means of preventing its
rcurrence
in ,by infusing into those who labour under it sound
pr
duinciples of action, and forming them to habits of economy,
e and foresight, is obviously necessary, to ensure to the
!xertions of benevolence their proper results. Mere liberality
ein almsgiving, unaccompanied by an endeavour to remove the
ilueses of that destitution which calls it forth, will not answer
TZiquiFenients of Christian charity.
• v'w of the subject plainly implies the necessity of com-
bining
and moral instruction with the relief of bodily
Nethaent, and of
making the latter, as it were, a preparative for
of thf°rTer• Aid, therefore, although the primary design
r°rtl:e '''sseciation is, to furnish the means of administering
aidextreme necessity of the poor, after due inquiry into the
itstaaces of each particular case, its ultimate object is, to
warit, ,"moving the moral causes which create or aggravate
Parts `f° encourage prudence, industry, and cleanliness, as
tsseen° Christian duty, and to promote kindly feelings be-
by the those classes of society which are kept so far winder
be eft; ulfference of their worldly conditions. And this may
entru`seted, it is hoped, by a judicious distribution of the funds
snav I`ect to this Association, through which individual bounty
cocoon applied to the relief of distress without fear of misdi-
are

times ready to give of their worldly substance to the
into and
needy,

t Two things are necessary, in order to replace the social

een the different classes of society, and the general incul-
cation of Christian principles. In bot cases the agency of the
Clergy is indispensable, and will he, under the Divine blessing,
effectual to these ends, if means are supplied for carrying on the

'l this object, may surely assert its claim upon the charity of
ase whom Providence has entrusted with the means of doing
Rood, and who are beund to use them for the glory of God, in
l'rorneting the temporal and eternal welfare of their fellow-
creatures.
