MORAVIANS 1N GREENLAND.
IT is confidently hoped that those who are enjoying in
abundance the proverbial comforts of an " Englishman's
fireside," will not suffer the condition and necessities of the
Moravian Missionaries and their Christian Flocks, residing
in Greenland, to be laid before them in vain. On that ice-
bound coast, where the cold is not unfrequently 40 or even
50 degrees below the freezing point, scarcely any fuel grows,
and the measure of supply depends chiefly upon the drift-
wood which is brought by the sea during the few weeks of

limner

The little brushwood wlfich is produced in the
ountry is so applied : but in order to gather it, the Mis-
ionaries have to undertake a perilous expedition, of forty
niles, in an open boat, exposed to furious storms, and those
engaged are separated from their flocks for several weeks. A.
recent letter observes—" You can hardly imagine how toil-
some and adventurous these expeditions occasionally prove.
We wish it were possible to dispense with the labour and
suffering they occasion." • It sometimes happens that all the
fuel they can obtain is only sufficient to cook their food, but
not to warm their sitting rooms. Most of the buildings
where the children meet for school, are destitute of all means
of warmth. If a sufficient sum were contributed, coals, and
also stoves, where needed, could be provided, and conveyed
to the settlements through Copenhagen.
Again :—The perils to which the Moravian Greenlanders
are exposed in obtaining food for their households, often
prove fatal to heads of families, and the number of widows
and orphans in the settlement, left without their natural pro-
viders, is unusually large ; and as there are no wealthy neigh-
bours to apply to, they suffer greatly during the winter.
" We have had nothing to eat for two or threjdays, is often
their cry" (say the Missionaries); " but this we would not
mind if there were but food for our poor children." Thus
the families of many truly Christian men are exposed to the
greatest privations. Some friends in• England and in St:
Petersburgh have established a fund, called the " Elias Cad"
(or Barrel of Meal of Elijah), from which the Missionaries
have been enabled to render aid to these poor starving fami-
lies; but this fund greatly needs to be replenished.
The present appeal is strengthened by the consideration
of the extreme economy with which the Mission in Green-
land is carried on—four stations, with 24 male and female
Missionaries, costing only £489 in 1839, including near £lOO
for passage of Missionaries.
As the Moravian Mission funds are in arrear to the extent
of above £3OOO, it is impracticable to increase from that
source the supplies already furnished; but contributions to
the objects above specified will be thankfully receiveGfdor,reetfloillre:
