ABOUT eight years ago, the calamities occasioned
- by the war In dlferent PrJvinces of Germany gave rile to
a Subseription,and the formation of a ConiattUee in Lond-m, to
relieve the distresses on tke Continent.

By the generosity of the British Public, the sum of nearly
XIO,OOO was remitted, which rescued mtskitudes from the extre-
mity of want; but at lid period ,inee the existence of this Glom-
miner, has the moss of every kind of misery been so great, in the
country to which their attention was fire directed; where the
many sanguinary battles fought in Silesia, i ,usaria, Bohemia*
tiaxony, Brandeaburg, and o'her parrs, have: entailed upon the
peaceable inhabitants, suffering, almost unexampled hi Cie an-
nals of history. The Committee are anxious, to impress upon the
minds of their coitntrymen, that in andel:l46on of Bretish *rip-
port, they have remitted to different parts of Germany to the
amount of near Z 40,010. • ,
