impossibls to avert. until tho next
many places Every effort Ia being made Ia
Ireland Itself by relief committees to avert
tho ealamity, but owing to the general com
mercial aud agricultural depression and
the widespread character OF tho distress,
these Efforts have proved totally inadequate
to meet the crisis. We appeal with conh-
dence to all Irlshuen and all friends OF Ire
land for aid In our Efforts To save the people
from destruction. We would point 10 the
constitution OF onr committee, which com
prises tnen OF the highest character and posi-
tion In the country, and OF all creeds and
politics, both rs an assurance that this
appeal IL justified, and that any funds On
trusted TO us shall be- distributed In tho man

DepiOrabie Condition Of the Kentucky
PenltenttapY.

CINCINNATI, Jan. 20.--A dispatch from
Frankfort, Ky, gives the report Of the prison
sanitary committee made yesterday to the
Kentucky Legislature. on the condition OF the
pententiary. Ii describes deplorable state
Of affairs. The committee finds that there
are eight convicts there confined that cannot
live more than few months. There are al
most fifty others, some of whom are confined
to their beds, who, In oil probability. cannot
live longer than the latter part OF the coming
spring; abeut 200 others are In a state Of de-
biity and weakness, practically unfi ting
them for duty or work. The balance OF the
eonvicts are unheathy-looking, and seem
affected by the injurious influences which
have prostrated the others. This state OF
affairs Ii due In the opinion of the commit
tee, to overcrowdlng In the workshops, bad
ventilation, i'm mperfect sewerage and u lack OF
wholesome food
