• Sur fellow-citizens, arising from
pf the times, has been published at
" li, the distressed state wherein
sands of the inhabitants wbo have fled from .
!neighbouring city, find themselves in this severe amt-
., soft, being deprived of their habitations, and desti-
tute of every thing, wander, about among us, both
humanity, and likewise a regard for our own secu-
rity and health, require an immediate stop being put
, to the magnitude of the increasing misery. At the
recommendation of the Administration of the Pa.
iriotic.rsociety for this district, a number of persons
have united, and with consent of the Magistracy,
taken openpiem, on the 30th Dec, to collect con.
iributions for the support of these unhappy people,
sod to provide for the proper application of the mo.
Dies therefrom arising, by lodging, boarding, cloth-
ing, and assisting those who are in want, as much as
possible: whilst making application to the benevo.
Jence of their fellow-citizens, they deem it needless
to specify any motives for giving large benefactions ;
the generous and general feeling which reigns among
them, having already voluntarily displayed itself in
the most touching manner, and the deplorable ob-
jects which every hour meet the eye, speak more
powerfully to the heart than can be done by the most
eloquent expressions.
