The Committee having been applied to by that of Gibraltar,
stating *their funds were exhausted, and unequal to the relief of
thoe Spaniards who had sought an asylum at Tangiers, have sent
a sum which % they hope will be sufficient for temporary assistance;
and they canno( lose this opportunity of repeating, that the claims
upon their reduced means arcevery day increased by new arrivals
but they trust that the active benevolence of the British Public will
enable them to meet the accumulating demands upon that gene-
rosity, of which the Committee has been the zealous, and, they
hope, the judicious instruments.

formed, in detail, of the application of the funds, Will attend for,that

A LAMENTABLE CASE OF DISTRESS..
THE Humane and Charitable are most earnestly int.'
plored to stretch forth a hand in behalf of that unfortunate
sod persecuted Female the Daughter of the late Rev. MICHAEL
WOOL/WA RD.—This ft-slip-distressed Orphan was for a length
einem an absolute wanderer in the streets, without a home to
' deter her head, and wanting every necessary of life, when a.hu-
me stranger enabled her to procure a lodging, which she has
enjoyed for this last few weeks; but not being able to pay the rent
say longer, she is ordered to quit when her week is up, when she
von of necessity be again turned into the street. The miserable
room she occupies is only Ss. 6deper weekf but even that scife it is
wily out of her power to pay. It would, indeed, be a charity if
ace humane Lady would condescend to aford her a Lodging for
a short time, "until her cause is heard in the Court of-Chancery,
'Lich will be the case during the.ensuing Sittings. and there is
tot the least doubt of her then obtaiiiing the Property of which she
and her late Mother have been so long deprived • but wilhout a
small assistance it will be impossible for her to exist until the case
Untied on. One view of the distress this poor creature is in will
convince any one that ihe is an object really deserving commisera-
tion.—A line addressed to Miss Woodward, Nu. 4, Turnagain.lane,
Fleet Market, will meet ;with heartfelt thanks.—The smallest
*lunation will be thankfully received, and gratefully acknowledged.
