DISTRESS IN GERMANY.

- - -
ABOUT eight wars ago, the calamities occa-
ainned by the war in different provinces of Germany gave
rise to a Subscription, and the formation of a Committee, in Lou-
don, to ielicve the distresses on the Continent.

By the generosity of the British Puhiic land with the aid of
several respectable Foreigners, resident ihisNeouistry, the sum
of nearly £5u,000 was retuitted to the Comiuent ,which rescued
multitsides of individuals and families from the extremity of
d,stitii, anal the very brink of ruin.
The Committee-reeeived, iniik font Germany and Sweden,
tile most Batt factory documents, testifying that the various sums
which had been transmitted, had been received, and conscien-
tiously distributed: bat at no period since the existence of this
Committee has the mass of 'every kind of misery been so great
in the country to which their attenti6n Was first directed.
_Never bad the cry of the distressed Germans for help been so
urgent, their appeal to British benevolence so pressing, as in the
present moment. Who coeld read the reports of the-dreadful
conflicts which. have taken iliac& in Genudny during tfie last
eventful year—of the many sanguinary battles fought in Silesia,
. Lusatia Bohemia, Saxony, Brandenburg, and other parts—and
peruse the melancholy details of sufferings, almost unexampled in
the annals of history—without the molt lively emotions ? Whoa
cowld hear of so many thousands of families I;arbarotuay driven
from gambugh, in the of a severe veinter-•-of so ninny
,/sW3ges burnt, cities pillaged, whole principalities desolated—and
'hot glow with an ardent desire to assist in relieving distress so
multifarious and extensive.
To the Alleviation of sufferings so dreadful—to the rescue of
°or fellow men, who are literally ready to perish—the views of
this Committee are exclusively directed.
. Many well-authenticated afflicting details of the present dis-
tress having been, on the 11th, on the 18th,-on the itBth, and
on the 31st of January, and the Ist of February, 1814, laid be-
fore the Committee, it was iinnkediately resolved, on the reli-
sure on the. liberality of the British Public, to remit, by th•se
Pasts; £ll,lOO to respectab:e per:on., with directitess to form
Committees of Distribution.
