To the Editor Of T&sE. Y. TribSas
SIR: 1t seems to me that were the wives of our mer.
CD ant princes to post up little notice in their reception
rooms on New-Years day. informing their visitors that
contributions would be received for the relief Of the
wife and family of the late John f. Jones who lost his
life ast week saving the passengers and crew OF the
bark Tnsso, at Barnegat, considerable amount mtal
be collected ano aIn .ure the object of the charity
could rot BE- more worthy. BY the sudden decease OF
her brave husband Mrs. Jones Is left totally destitute,
with family Of seven young children dependent upon
Der fer support l. the the snS Families
of those who die brsvely struggling to save the lives
and property Of others our coasts with some tan.
gble evidence of their appreciation OF such gallant
deeds Mrs. Jones and her family are very poor, and
beirg deprived Of their natural protector, should
be placed in circumstances which will secure
them against want and suffer ng. 1 know
that her neighbors will not let her want tor
ANYTHING they can provide; but they already poor
enough, and must struggle bard to support those who
aie egitmately dependent upon them. Should your
lady readers think well of the suggest n. am comb
dent that it would greatly redoapd to their benefit
Sncb recognition Of the claims of the brave and self
sacrificing wreckers upon cur generosity, would ehmu
late them exert themselves In future to save LIE aud
P'P'''' 49, CITIZEN OF NEW YORK.

little charity thus worthy bestowed will bless alike
the eiyer and the poor widow and her atheess babes
