urgent appeals come to us from various
quarters Many Bishops of the United

their dioceses and have sent the contribu-
tioils of our generous people to their suf-
feriRg brethren. 1t is true that our needs
are great. Our diocese, our churches and
institutions need all the assistance they
cap get. But God will provide.
In time when whole
people are threatened with renewal OF the
famine years Of l846 and 1847 we can not,
we must not, stand by unconcerned, bul
help must be given to the best Of our abil.
ity. We, therefore. request that you, dear
Father, lay this matter before your gener-
Gus peOpe on the first Sunday after the re-
ceipt Of this circular, and take up a cullec-
ton for tie suffering people of Ireland on
the Sunday following. and send the amount
collected, Is so n as possible, to our Vicar
General, who will forward the same to the
Bishops Of the stricken districts. Yours
affectionately in Christ A. M. ToEBBE,
'' i.E Bishop of Covington.
