THE LADIES INDUSTRIAL ASSOCIATION OF Co.
LuMBA.-This Association was organized in
November, 1866, for the purpose of relieving
persons who had been reduced to poverty by
the war. It was desired to give not aims, but
employment to this large and suffering class,
and during the yeal ending November, 1867,
the Association supplied eighty persons weekly
with work ard paid out $1,000. The Associa-
tion has. however, been lighting hard with ad
versity for many months, 80 much so, that the
board OF managers now como before the public
and ask that assistance which will enable them
to put their society upon permanent footing,
and to extend the sphere of it's usefulness.
For this purpose soiree will be held in Co.
lumbia on Wednesday and Thursday next, the
patronage of the delegates to the Agri-
cultural Convention and OF all strangers
being earnestly solicited. To all who
may be in the Capital Of the State
at the time this will be invitation enough; but
there are hundreds of Others who will not be
there, aud who can contribute something TO
the necessities Of the society. Upon the extent
of the donations must depend the measure OF
relief that Gun he extended to those who are in
want and we appeal to our fellow-citizens
throughout the State to show by their contri-
buttons that they do not forget the sacred duty
of relieving, as far as We may, the need Of the
widows and orphans OF those who died for cur
sake. The following are the lady managers
in Columbia to whom donations may be sent
Mrs. B. E. Levy, Miss Kate Hampton, Mrs. J,
B. Adger. Mrs. a. NJ. Guignard, Mrs. Martha
Stark, Mrs. William Wallace, Mrs. William
REYNOLDS, Mrs. DIR. Fair, Mrs. J. a. Kay.
