The following Report was made lty the Secretary, and
adopted by the Committee
I. That by'a late return of Numbers in the Schools under
the manage/nein of this Sociery, there were Three Thousand
- One flendred and Fifty-two Children, besides a number of
Adult Persons receivin4 instruction on the Softball). Day

lane, dattle-bridge; George- street, Chelsea, and King's-
V"411, ditto; Horseferrv.road, Weiidmiuster ; anti Mill-street,
tatolitals': and that terse Seltools since their establishment
tart afforded lostetietioni mote ir less, to upwara of Twen-
4-‘firt: Thousand Children.
1. •That itotwithstanding•the number Of Children in these
'old the various other Charity Schools in the Mt-troPolis, it
Itay been often:tined that-there'are still teany tOriusands ,N Ito
4t4" 110 School whatever; whose Parents . continually ab-
'ent thentseives from plaees of public worship; and,
lull ffe-
sent to their Children's imProeelfleOla leave Oren' to grow. up
',I utter ignorance of all initial and religious duties, and in
11141 degrading habits -of vice and depravity. • Tl'llese la-
, Inetadttle facts are fully confirined by the ntioutes of et ideate
'Wee!' liefore the Select Conneittee of the Hotise of Conimons,

bee I'-keen Hundred and Tweitty Children, front the ai4e of
in fourteen, who cannot read, and Thirteen H tine red and
,11tY-one who do nut attend -any School whatever. Many
kliiltheit of peon L ish families have nu other means of In-
stroction than' fcoto Sunday Schools.
111. That the affecting increase of juvenile offenders of late
)'ears, has heel, ascertained to originate chiefly in thy want
of education and mural instruction.
Then considerable improvement has been made in the
rinds and morals of Many ef the Children,• by the- inetrue-
%l'M given in.the Schools of this Society, for a lung. sell" of
gars; and that numerous instances have occurred in which
the parents and other parts of the families, hare also de-
ftved gteat benefit by means of the Cbildreh attending these
V. That many of the Teachers in the different Schools have
exerted themselves to aid' the Funds of the Society, and have
Inanifested an earnest desire to increase their labours, and to
Iterstiade,tbeir friends to unite their services, it-an extended
°°lttber of Schools could be opened for the Poor

w4l calculated to. counteract that mural poison, which hit*
violateo been diffused to an alarming degree, by the eireula-
-10,,,.. t blasphemous anti seditious publications amongst the
Neis,olasses.; inasmuch as the Children educated in these
scrliu.._is are assidumbly taught to reverence the Sacred •
11,re, and to regulate their conduct by it 3 divine
precepts.
