DISPENSARIES to meet the present urgent demands upon
them for relief. The attention of the Public is particularly

year 1846 exceeded the income by £723. As, at this important
crisis, extraordinary efforts must be made to arrest the progress
of misers and disease, the Committee rely on the sympathy
and liberality of the Public.

FUND FOR THE TEMPORAL RELIEF OF THE
SUFFERING POOR OF IRELAND,
THROUGH THE INSTRUMENTALITY OF THE CLERGY

OF THE ESTABLISHED CHURCH

IPPEAL TO THE CHRISTIAN PEOPLE OF GREAT

BRITAIN AND IRELAND.

"Wboso bath this world's good, and seeth his briither have

ii;ale -th love of e4od in him 7"—i John iii. 17,
"As we Kaye therefore opportunity, let us do

good unto all

The COMMITTEE appointed so manage the above fund, in
this their third Address to the Christians of the United Empire,
beg leave to direct especial attention to the agency which they
have, from the.first, been led to adopt. and which will, they
trust, continue to commend itself, as being at once simple,

inexpensive, and efficient—they allude to the Clergy of
Church of Ireland, upwards of two thousand of whom are

motest parts. .
Calumniated as the religion of Protestants has been to our
Roman Catholic fellow countrymen, it is surely a matter of the
utmost moment that we shortlil exhibit a practical refutation of
such slanders_ and rioninnatrnto to nll_ nnw in the neriod of Ire.

love," even to enemies. This the Committee feel persuaded
can be effectually done by continuing to use the Clergy of the

to their care by their fellow Christians. Thus, also, a Alia=
rantee is given that none of their funds will he expended• on
improper objects, or for the promotion of improper ends.
The Committee, moreover, feel that sympathy for the suffex-
ing clergy themselves requires this at their handis. Placed in
the midst of a fiery trial of famine and disease, their houses
are daily surrounded by dying multitudes of all religious per-
suasions, who look up to them as their natural and tried hem-
factors. It surely becomes their brethren of the household of
faith to lighten, as far as may lie in their power, the heavy load
of anxiety under which the) labour—anxiety for the spiritual,
as well as temporal, welfare of the perishing multitudes over
whom the providence of God has placed them, and who are
now brought, through his inscrutable wisdom and goodness, to
rsceive, with deeper attention than ever before, the lessons of

enCiarisof the country, to the value of their exertions, for
the necessity for the instrumentality they are employing. One
clergyman writes as follows :
" Will you convey to. the Committee my sincere thanks for
their aid, Through the assistance kind friends have given me,
I have been enabled to make myself felt as the rector of the
parish. I have two boilers established,
six miles apart, in the
poorest districts of my parish. I have now a bakery at work
in the heart of a mountain district, thus giving the poor on the
mountains bread 3d. under the usual price. besides Saving them
a walk of fourteen or fifteen miles. A second bakery will be
set up in.a few days. I gave free tickets on our poor kitchen
to many—to widows, to the sick, to families, no member of
which was earning wages. Fever rages. The money entrusted
to me has saved many lives. The whole of the money raised
for the soup kitchen, and for relieving the sick poor,-has been
placed at my sole disposal. I have asked a most, ti,orthy pa-
rishioner to be my.treasurer. Ile, his wife, and I, Manage the
money. Your committee will believe, that administering nearly
individual relief, in a parish of upwards of 25,000 acres, is A
matter of no light labour."
The Committee deem it unnecessary, in their present appeal,
to adduce further proof of a fact, now by all admitted, that
calamity, on a national scale, and of unparalleled severity, has
befallen the land.' Their .earnest prayer is, that national re:

derstood, that the benefits of this fund are not confined to any
district, or to professors of any particular creed, but are .de.
signed to be coextensive with ,the misery that prevails. CAN
