LADIES OE GREECE.
" Sisters and Friends--From the years of childhood,
your native clime has been the theme' of our admiration.
Together with our brothers and husbands, we early learned
to love the country of Homer, and Aristides, of Solon awl
of Socrates. That enthusiasm which the glory of ancient
Greece enkindled in our bosoms, has preserved a fervent
friendship for her descendants. We have beheld with deep.
sympathy the horrors of Turkish domination, and the '
struggle so long and nobly sustained by them for existence 1
and "for liberty. ,
" ' The communications of Dr. Howe, 'since his return
from your land, have made us more intimately acquainted
with your.personal sufferings. He has presented many of
you to. Us, in his vivid descriptions, as seeking refuge in
caves, and under the branches 'of olive trees, listening for
the footsteps of the destroyer, and mourning over your 1
.dearest ones, slain in battle.
" Sisters and friends, our hearts bleed for you. .De • I
rived ,of your protectors by the fOrtune of war, and Oa-
tinually in fear of evils worse than death—our prayers are
with you, in all your wanderings, your wants, and your
griefs'. In this vessel (Which may God send in safety to
your shores) you will receive a portion of 'that bounty
With which he bath blessed us. The poor among us have
given, according to their ability, and our little children
cheerfully aided, that some Of you and your children might
have bread to eat, and raiment to put on. Could you but
behold the faces of our little Ones brighten and their eye,,
sparkle with joy, while they give up their holidays, that
they might work with their needles for Greece,—could
you see-those females who earn lc subsistence by labour,.
gladly easting their might into ourtreasary, and taking'
hours from' their repose, that ati additional garnient.mighf
be furnished for sod,—could yoa-Witness the active spirit
chat pervades all etasses of our-comtitunity, it Would cheer
for a moment the darkness and misery of your lot.
" We are inhabitautstif a part of one•of. the smallest
of the United States, and our donations must therefore of
necessity be more limited than those from • the larger and
more wealthy cities : yet such as we have, we give in the
name of our dear Saviour,. with our blessings and Our
prayers.
We know the value of sympathy—how it at-ma-the'
heart to endure—show it plucks the sting from sorrow—
therefore we have written these feW lines to assure you,
"that in the remoter parts of our country, as well as in her
high places, you -are remembered with pity and with.
affection. .
" Sisters and -Friends, we extend across the ocean oar
hani.ls to you in the fellowship of CAarigt. We pray, that
his cruse and the banner of your land may rise together over
the Crescent and the Minaret—that your sous may hail the
freedom of ancient Greece restored, and build again the
waste places, which the oppressor bath trodden' dewn—
and that you, admitted once more to the felieities'of home,
may gather from past perils' and adversities a brighter
wreath for the kingdom of Heaven:

"The following memorial has been presented to Con-
gress from the inhabitants of. Nantucket, relative to the
proposition of Mr. Reynolds to- fit, out an exploring ercjae-'
dition into the Pacific and Southern Oceans:— • •1
" To the Honourable the mate and Haase of Repreehre%.
tatiNes in Congreaa assembled,
The memorial of the subscribers, citizens of the town
of Nantucket, respectfully representi•—
. .".' That the intercourse maintained between different
parts of the nation and the islands and countries of the Pa-
cific Ocean, has become a matter of public interest, intlr
deserving the protecting care of the national legislature.-1
The fur business, and the trade carried cm between the
Pacific blends and waste of China, as is known to your
Honourable Body, have afforded rich returns, and increated
the wealth-of our commo" conntry. Besides this einpley--
ment of national industry and enterprise, they would re-
present that there are engaged in the whale fishery, trim
various parts of the:country, upwards of forty thousand
tons of shipping, requiring a; capital of three millions
of dollars, and the service of more than 3,000 seamen.
Whether viewed as a nursery of bold and latirdy seamen,
or as an employment of capital in one of the most proditc.•
tive modes. or as furnishing an article of • indispensable ne.•
cessity. to human Comfort, it seems to your itetitioneri to
be an object especially deserving the public care. Tee in_

Within a few years their cruises have extee..tled•from the
roasts of Peru and Chile to the north-west coaa,..New
Zealand, and the Isles of Japan. The increase of risk bee
been attended by an increase of lose. Several vessels hive
been wrecked on islands and reefs not laid down '!on
any chart ; and the matter requires a painful interest
from the fact, that many ships have got* in to those
seas, and no soul has survived to tell their fate. YOnr
petitioners further consider it a matter of earnest • hal-
porttmce, that those seas should be explored ; that they
should he surveyed in an accurate and authentic manner,
and the position of new islands, reefs, and shoals, defieitelr
ascertained. The advancement of science, ,and, not their
private interests only, but the general interests of the
nation, seem to them imperiously to demand it. They
therefore pray that an expedition may be fitted out, under-

force itself on our cOnsideration,•for it is 'a grow-

very heart of the oninnuntty.. There

who dwell on,the gross abuses which are to be ,

on the waste; the corruption, the unprincipled
- e*penditure,.of the funds ;

ill coMplairiof„.andwhiCh , east so deeP.4 shade,
on .the. kturepf society in England, to be only
the necessary consequences of .the original error.
It seems at Orst view to be .b6threasonable and
. just, when the wOrking classes - of society, by
.wbose industry all , the . others, are fed, .clothed,
.4ridtiodged,:fall into poverty and distress,• that
LAW. ticker plisses' 'shad' contribute to their

lenceilowever.specious 'in appearance, is really
impracticable ; and it ifs by following up this chi-
mericalprinciple in the administration 9f the
PoopLiwa, that they have. gradually grown up
into' such as vast system of corruption ancl,
abuse. . There is no doubt that the aged, tbc ,
sick, or the infirm are proper objects of parochial '
benevolence; but in place of giving relief on this
limited scale, the P6or Laws lay society under
heavy contributions .in order to *aid • the able
bodied .labourer,. when his wages are low, or
when he is in want of work, or when the country
is afflicted with. scarcity ; and 'under ,tbis.sistern
the assessment. raised for the :poor has been
gradually. augmented to the 'enormous sum of,
between six and seven millions.- annually, And
.yet so far"from banishing distress from. the coun-
try, which seems to havik been the: object of these
laws, the .misery of the labouring classes has
augmented, and rhas kept pace, with increasing
contributions for their relief, and no one who
considers for a moment the condition and strue,
ture of human :sOtiety, ' Need be at any lOss
clearly to comprehend the failure Of, this well- -
meant;:butill,contaived .scheme,
The great evil to which 'humanity in the lower
walks of life is 'subject is :poverty; occasioned
either by want of food, or by want of .work ; the
effect of this calamity is to lower wages, and to
depress the conditiOn of the labouring classes ;'
and. it has its prigin.gene.rally in, too. rapid an
increase of inhabitants.' In this , case no done-
' tioni; of money can relieve the calamity ~i nor is
it possible to glittwork,, as the parish officers are
ordained to do by tbe.,ol of. Queer-m..41,mA-
, FIETH,* for time unemployed poor,. Unless we
increase' the funds for the• maintenance of labour,
we cannot improve the condition. Of those who
live by labour ; the very, idea, indeed, of. effect-
ing any general rise. of wages by. charitable con-
tributions is wild and impracticable .in the
extreme. *. No human. laws* ever produce any
such revolution in the order and. economy of
society. The consequence of over population,
to which every_ community has a, perpetual ten.-
dency, is a superabundant supply of labour, and
it is vain to attempt, by donations of money,
However profuse, to counteract the inevitable,
effect of 'this general .cause. in, depressing the
situation of the .fahourer. We cannot fi a
minimum .on the rate of wages ; yet this is pre-
cisely what we aim at when we raise large eon-
' tributions by authority of law,. in order to give
to the able-bodied .labourer, because his wages

are 10w• •
, The want of food is, thin, the calamity to which
the working classes are liable, and it is an evil,
which 'no human skill' can aid. , A , deficient
supply of food, whether from over-population or
from 'a failure the produce, implies, most
clearly that a smaller share must faltto the lot of
each 'consumer. This economical distribUtion
of food. is effected by a rise of price, which
plaiesit without the reach of the poorer classes,
so that'they are put on short allowance : they
cannot consume the same quantity as before r and
it is by this
.more sparing use of the supply, to
which they' are compelled by a higher price, that
the smalletiviintity is made to serve the, same
number Of consumers. Now it is absolutely.ne-
cessary, either when .the supply fails, or when
consumers increase, that it should be more eco-
nomicaMy used; and
.this economical use of it
can only. be.enforcegl on the poor by a higher
price. Yet'it has long been the practice, under
the Poor LaWS,, to, make the. price Of, grain the
standard of pecuniary relief to the lahourer, and
proportion as the necessaries of life rise in
price,' to give him increased donations iu
money, for, the
.purpose, it would seem, of en-
abling hign to consume the same quantity of
corn when it is scarce as when it is abun-
dant, 'which, is clearly impossible.; . By these
absurd regulations, we thus vainly endeavour to
counteract the- severe but necessary order of
nature, which, when a' short supply has to be
distributed among the same numbeil: of con-
sumers, raises the price that they may con-
sume less ; but the purpose for which we give
them money is, that they may,conxoe, the same
quantity. as before. r).!
But. though we have not been able by those
indiscreet and' prodigal donations of money to
raise generally the rate. of wages, and the,condi-
. tion of the labouring classes, we have inflicted
on society the most •complicated and extensive
nischiefs.- In:relieving the poor it is as neces-
sary to show discretion athumanity, and above
all, tiiingS,. to take care lest by a profuse charity
we corrupt the principle of independence, end
render it easier :for them to. beg than to murk,

Independence isa the parent of all that is valuable
in the human character. Industry, justice, eco-
nomy, prudence,!--.these are the virtues which
follow in its train ;,end they perish with the loss
of it, leaving the: Mind open -to all the opposite
and degrading vices of indolence, improvidence,
and profligacy of every sort. Now, it is here
that we touch tbe capital error of the English
Poor Laws-:--they hold out a bounty on indo-
lence and beggary. The profuse and indiscri-
minate charity_whiK they lavish on all classes
is a temptation too great for frail humanity to
resist. They have accordingly corrupted the
morals 'Of the l'people--haVe rendered begghiy-
familiar" to, theMT'and. have rOgted out from
their minds that spirit of independence; the
companion" of honesty, and; the ..poOr mans
proudest boast, Need we wonder when we have
made them immoral, that we have made them
more miserable, or: that in place of relieving the
indigent we have only been provoking, fresh de-
mands ; and have been in feet reCrUiting, and too
successfully„for beggars ? It would, we, have no
hesitation in saying, be just andpolitio,: and even
humane, to restrict those enormous. donations ; to
confine onr,rp,fief to the sick, the aged, and the
infirm ; and to trust, as they do in Scotland, for
the relief' of sudden onemcnciea occasioned 4y
the failure of trade,, where it is necessary to aid
.the able-bodied labourer, to voluntary contribu-
tions. .In Scotland there is no. SuOlthinghs,paro-
chial relief. No man trusts §uch an gx.
_ .
pression as going upon the parish is-not so much
as knpwh. Yet will any one who looks at that
community, as compared with England, affirm
that it contains geperally, more misery or poverti ?
4pa if society goes op prosperously in other
countries without those enormous contributions
for the poor, why should it be thought‘ necessary
to attach such a heavy appendage to it in England ?

We have only room to direct public attention
o a report of some interesting proceedings which

..ng in the City. The establishment of such
