The tnanks Of the Commission and the COM
mnnlfy are in an especial manHcr due to the
generous hearted gentleman 4. q. Burch, Esq
for supplies occupied by the Commission, so
adsantageouely posltloncd, has been furnished
free OF rent 10 tho same gentleman the
Commission Is indebted for storage room for
Its boxes, without the advantage Of which it
would haye been greatly embarrassed.
Of the benefactions entrusted to the Commis-
sion, 1t was found necessary at the outset to
secure responsible agents at the points Of dis
t3bufion, through whom the Commission
could get and feel assured that the charity Of
ne public would not be perverted: Thus far
this end has been accomplished. No ease Of
the rerveraion Of the contents Of sinEls box
by any pe1son acting % the agent for, OF on
behalf pf, the Commission has ever occurred,
so 1ax ps any member Of the Commission
TACT corH hardly bare escaped discovery. It
T. with hEreat chag11n that the Commission has
