Leaving balance in hands OF
managers and treasurer Of $62 60
The details of the managers for the
last year, as may be seen in the preceding
report Of their accounts, are unusually
short, owing principally, to the facts, that
the expense OF raw materials has very
much advanced, and the price Of import
ed goods greatly diminished. These cir
cumstances have rendered the manufac-
ture of clothing for the children OF the
poor, difficult, and unadvisabie meas
ure. The managers have therefore pur-
chased clothing, they think, with advan
tage to the institution. While they have
thus been obliged to take the means of
employment, and consequent support, from
the industrious poor, who have heretofore
been employed in manufacturing cloth,
they have been under the necessity OF ex-
tending more than usual assistance TO the
sick aud needy.
The managers can now say no more to
the members of the society, than has been
again and again repeated. The claims OF
the institution are great and pressing.
The school under the care Of the board,
is an object of The first importance to the
community, and the helpless individuals
who compose it. 1t cannot be supported
without the continued efforts Of the mem
bers of the society and the benefactions OF
others. The school might be much ex-
tended, and there are now many poor and
suffering children continually applying for
admission to its comforts, its instruction
and usefulness, who cannot be received.
because there is no room for them IN the
provisions which the managers have been
enabled TO make. And they cannot but
remark, that the compensation which they
are able to make the instructress, is much
less than her assiduity and faithfulness
really merit. In the name oil Him who
took little children in his arms, the mana
gers entreat a kind public TO consider
these interesting objects. The reply to
this entreaty, they can anticipate-the
times are hard and pressing. One of
the best efforts for improving the times,
will be the employment Of every laudable
means to bear one another's burthens;"
,and may not the managers suggest to eve
~ friend of this institution, the propriety
Of endeavouring TO procure for 1t, from
their respective circles, some occasional
aid. The smallest favours will be useful,
and it should be kept in mind, that what
ever is given 10 this way will be SO care
fully applied, as to render, it is believed,
double the advantage that it would if Civ.
en- in that casual manner, in which much
must be given if this society is not vigo-
roasly supported. Much individual APP
plication and relief may be anticipated
during the approaching winter, which may
be diminished in the most effectual way

MORAL SOCIETY
NEw-BRUNswIcK, Nov. IL.


On Tuesday the I'd inst. the New-Jer-
sey Society for the suppression Of vice
land immortality, and for the encourage
ment of virtue and good morals, held its
annual meeting in this city. The Rev.
Mr.. Huntington, one of the Vice-Presi-
dents, took the chair, and Mr.. Charles E..
Hollinshead was appointed Secretary.
The following report Of the Board OF
Directors was then read and adopted by
de Society.
The Board of Directors report TO the
4 New-Jersey Society, for the suppression
Of vice and immortality, and for the en-
enlargement of virtue and goods moral"
that they have, during the past year, been
Prosecuting with steady and lenient hand,
ii conformity with the spirit of its consti-
tuition, the interests of this association.
s They caused to be printed and circulated,
a number Of copies Of the proceedings OF
The last annual meeting Of the society, and
they are pleased to find that the more its
views, principles, and designs are made
known, the more is the utility and import
ance Of the institution appreciated. Some
who were at first disposed TO view it as
an adventurous experiment, are now rea-
dy to acknowledge, that with the modera-
tion, GOODNESS, and candor, which have
uniformly marked its proceedings, it is
calculated to be ultimately productive Of
much good. A correspondence has been
Opened with several persons on the subject
of procuring reform in respect to trav-
eiling in public coaches on the Lords
day which it is hoped will in due time
eventuate, in happy check aud correc-
ton, if not entire suppression OF this great
evil. Incipient measures have been taken
to procure printed catalogue, 10 the form
of handbills, of the crimes and vices pun
ished by statute in this state, with their
corresponding penalties annexed, that they
may be put up in places of public resort,
& and operate at once, both 10 the instruc-
ton and reformation of all who now igno-
rantly violate the laws. In some parts OF
the state during the past year, important
institutions have been formed, which, il
not directly and professedly auxiliary TO
this society, will nevertheless greatly aid
and strengthen its operations.
But while we witness with pleasure,
these tokens of the increasing prosperity
of this society; the board, with emotions
Of heartfelt grief, are called TO record the
death Of JOSHUA nj. WALLACE, Esq. lis
worthy patron and President. The deep
and lively interest which he took in all
the concerns and deliberations OF this So
ciety, and of the board, over which ne SO
happily presided, is well known to every
member. The character of this excellent
man needs no eulogy. The history Of MS
humble piety. Of his evangelical ZEAL o.
his catholic disposition and expansive
charity, may be found ia the records and
annals Of the principal benevolent lnstitu
tions Of the day, the interests OF which ne
SO seduIously aimed TO promote, that thell
success and prosperity were, IN his heart
identified with his own happiness. AS
aan, a patriot, philanthropist. and
Christian, he stood pre-eminently high
