DISTRESSED LETTER-PRESS PRINTERS OF THE

METROPOLIS.

IMPRESSED with sentiments of the deepest gra-
titude for the assistance already so generously bestowed,
the Committee most sincerely lament the necessity which impels
them, a seccuul time, to address the Public in behalf of the
UNEMPLOYED PRINTERS of the METROPOLIS. The
Printing Business, which has for many mouths suffered an almost
unexampled depression, still exhibits but little, if any, signs of a
favourable cluvqe ; the wretched situation, therefore, of those
have for so long a period been deprived of the means of sup-
Aims the urgent wants of their families may be easily imagined ;
their only support has been derived from the Contributions of the
Benevolent, and the Subscriptions of such of their Fellow-work-
men as remained in partial employment Should this resource
fail, which the present exhausted state of the Fund renders more
than probable, they can anticipate nothing from the approaching
Winter but they extremity of Human Misery. To avert, if poi-
eihiel this impending fate, the Committee most urgently appeal
to the ilumanity of a British Public, trusting, that under such
circumstances, further Assistance will not be withheld.
In thus urging the claims of their Distressed Brethren, the Com-
Mittee cannot deny themselves the gratification of adverting to the
important and inestimable benefits which the Printer, by the exer-
cise of his profession, has conferred upon civilised society;.—when
it is considered how much the Art of Printing contributes to the
amusement and instruction of mankind,—and that, without the
i"#..oluentelity of The Press, the sublimed efforts of the human
'4111,* would, in a general sense, have been written in vain—they
venture to express a hope that the feeling which such reflections
de calculated to excite in the minds of all in the least degree at-
tached to Literature, will of itself prevent the possibility of an
educated and respectable body of men being utterly abandoned to
Poverty and desair.
The Committee think it their duty to state, that sines the date
of their
-first. Appeal to the Public, near SIX, iffINDRED Indi-
viduals have, received relief from the Fo:,,d—the sum awarded
weekly to each person was pmportkeied to the number of his
family. -ranging from 3s. 6d., tit allowance of a single man, to
14" the highest sum that ;guild be extended to the most severe
.and eomplitated case of ':tistress. Though small, this relief was
meat shankfully eeee;;eed ; and the Committee can with pleasure
'ay, that it has fleeced many worthy men, and respectable
ft°lti being rerticed to the lowest degradation of poverty.

Committee have to announce the following Donations and
