When in February last the meeting was call
ed at the Exchang. to raise contributions for the
Relief of the Suffering Irish, doubts We're enter
tanned whether considerable could be
raised. The meeting assembled. A largo num-
Der of gentlemen of the first Responsibility
present. They sympathised with the sufferers
and were determined 10 make effort. They
went to work like men determined to succeed .
and they did succeed Near three thousand dol
lars subscribed the spot, before the
meeting adjourned. Ward committees were APP
pointed 10 solicit further contributions. These
committees did their duty. and large additional
contributions were obtained.
An executive committee to receive the contri-
buttons, aud to prepare and forward them to their
destination was appointed. This committee CON
sisted of Henry f. Spencer, John c. Wright,
Joseph Iongworth, John Creigh,,R r. Springer,
w. w Scarborough, Thomas She dock, and Jas
Pullan, John Creigh was Treasurer. Subse-
quently Messrs. Springer. Scarborough, Sher-
lock and Pulan, selected a sub-commit-
tee, and under their superintsndance and that OF
the Treasurer the work, laborious as il was, has
been well and promptly done They are entitled
to great praise for their unremtted attention to
this charitable work
We have before us, in pamphlet, the Report
of the Sub-C onmittee and Treasurer. designed
10 inform the contributors how their Iberal do
nations have been disposed of. While the dis
charge Of the duties imposed upon the Commit
tee has thrown upon them t-an amount OF labor
which they were not prepared for, they have re-
Ioiced IN the opportunity of endeavoring to for
ward by their services, charity which has
doubtless saved thousands of our fellow creatures
from -'",""t'on, ""d giran our citizens strong
hold on the hearts Of warm hearted people,
