The committee appeals to tie American
people Tor this object Ia tho sacred name
Of charity, and for that alone, IL does not
wish 10 refer To the merits orihe eonHle',
which has unhappily arisen between TIE
great nations OF Germany ani France, Tor
il believes that discussion on these points
should cease in the presence OF saeh sai'

with noble mugnanimiiy, and setting an
example which is worthy Of our aimir''
ton, haze shared their scaniy ra'ions
wi,hth starving foes. Let II not he SAT-
that ye Of cur abundance have done less
than they,
The French people have been engaged IN
war of the most destructive character. II
| has drawn feur:ully upon their ro'or'oes,
exhausted their supplies, and oripr leu
their industries. In the agricultural dis
lric,s the last years crop was a.Hhort one
and the present one was harvested only III
pnri, and much of what was gathered to
the use Of the armies. Their lana hss
been the scene Of numerous battles OF 'er-
ribie magnitude, and the horrors Of war
have been brought to their very doors. An
immediate supply OF food is needed for the
starving population. The farmers must
have seed to plant in their heids IN the
| spring, or the crops Of next season WI! nov
be forthcoming. Unless speedy action 4,

I hour of disaster.
Our duty us u Christian nation torbid5
us to be Indifferent to their appeal for re

/ double charity. The committee therefore
cannot too 3trcncly impress upon all the
| necessity Of prompt action every d'y II
LASTS it is for France day Of misery un-

the spring will, it is hoped, be sent by
| the farmers OF the East in tho proper con-
yeyancc, for which arrangements shall be
made. The committee calls upon its fel
/ low-citizens everywhere TO engage in this
work of humanity and love. 1t urges
them to organize in every city, town, ana
village at once and earnestly % forward
their contributions, without delay, and 1t
feels assured that this appeal to the bs-
novolence Of all will receive an earnest
