SUBSCRIPTION to AFFORD TEMPORARY
RELIED?' to the. DESTITUTE, and NIGLITLt
SHELTER to the HOUSELESS, during the PRESENT
INCLEMENT SEASON.
At a SPECIAL MEETING of the GENERAL COM-
MITTEE, held at the King's Head, 'in the Poultry, on Mon-
day, Jan. 44, 1320 ;
The. Right Hon. the LORD MAYOR, in the Chair;
An Address to the Public was presented to the Meeting by
the Right Reverend the Loan Ilisuor of Citesrea, as Chairman
of a Sab-Committee appointed to prepare the same, which hay-
ing been read, it was moved by Sir Joint W. Luasocg, Bart.
seconded by Josera Ilurrettwoarm, Esq. and resolved unani-
mously--That the Address now read be approved by this Meet-
ing, and pnblished forthwith.
A DDRESS. •
The Committee appointed to reeeive and apply the Subscrip-
tions which might be raised for affording Shelter to the House-
less, and Relief to the Destitute, during the present Season,
beg leave to acknowledge, with gratitude and pride, the noble
and aluwst unparalleled liberality with which the Public have
come forward, and answered the Appeal, which was made to
their judgment and feelings.
Noe should they oa this occasion omit to return their grateful
thank/ to his Majesty's Government, to the London Dock Com-
pany, and niany•private incfivichrals, for the offer and grant of
their assistance or-services.
Such liberality has been Vet, they hope, with a proportionate
degree of zeal on the part of the Committee. It has baen, they
can truly assert, their wish and their endeavour td render the
Benevolence of the Public as productite a, possible of that bene-
ficial tcsult, for the accorn.pliihment-of which this Bounty was
bestowed.
Is stibmitting the following Statement of Persons admitted
into the libuse at London-wall, the Committee think it proper
to observe, that many of the objects were evidently in'the last
stage of human ptivation and suffering, and would in all proba-
bility have perlahed from hunger and cold, unless the doors of
that Asylum for wretchedness had been open to receive them.

Although the Committee kayo, during the short time they
have been in action, devoted their almost exclusive attentiGn to
the more pressing and immediate call upon their Funds, the',,
Sheltering the Huuseless, yet they have not lost sight of the other '
and no less important object for which the Subscriptions were
given, viz. the affording some immediate Relief to the Destitute;
and in furtherance of this design, a Sub-Committee has been
appointed, whose office it is, as far as may be practicable, to
search out the abodes of misery and went, and administer as-
sistance-to those unfortunate sufferers whose distresses, though
not equally obtrusive; may not be the less severe.
The Committee, however; are prevented at present from en-
tering upon this branch of duty to the extent they could wish,
by the impossibility of forming, in this early stage of their pro-
ceedings, any correct estimate of the amount of expense•, im-
mediate and contingent, which the .r.tnnber. of incbviduals ad-
misted at London-wall, and the peculiarity of some of their
cases may call for; but having abundant information of the ex-
treme misery which exists in many parts of the Metropolis, and
of the number of unfortunate Families, who, though not driven
from their homes, are pining without the common necessaries
which nature and the mason require, they are anxious to extend
to them also the Most prompt and effectual assistance, which
their arrangements in Landon-wall, and, as they hope and trust,
the continued liberality of the Public, will enable them to be-
stow. To doing this, it may be advisable for the Committee
to avail themselye of the experience and personal assistance of
some of the Managers of Charitable Institutions in the Metro-
polis, as it will, in all probability, be found that the actual situa-
tion and degrees of suffering in so numerous a class as that last
alluded to„ will be more efficiently investigated by established
or local Institutions, than by the most strenuous exertioas of
any-one general Association.
Such are the views and the designs of the Committee, which
they trust will be found to agree with the original design of the
promoters of this Charity. It has been their sincere desire to I
keep good faith with the Public, and to distribute a fund, which
has exceeded the most sanguine expectations of every one, even
in this age of charity, in that manner which, if it were possible
to consult them, would best accord with the intentions and
wishes of the Subscribers themselves.
