SELECTIONS FROM THE MAIL.

THE DESTITUTION IN THE NORTHWEST.
GREAT JOY AMONG THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN
HELPED-MUCH MORE ASSISTANCE NEEDED.
To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir I am sure your numerous readers will be
glad TO know that their generous donations have
reached the destitute places in the Northwest and
that our faithful missionaries now distributing
food to the hungry and fuel and clothing to the
destitute The letters received from the mission
aries very touching both because of the graft
tude they breathe and also OF the facts they relate
Of the ptlable condition of the settlers one says:
IL shall prayerfuy and joyfully enter into the
distribution. the suffering is great" Another
says: "I have. among others aided several widows
and children. and one helpless and afflicted min
lister. How the donors would have rejoiced could
they have seen the happiness evinced upon re-
ceving help" The general tenor OF the letters is:
God bless the dear friends who. have so nobly
come to our help However let add that
more help is needed the most that has been done
is but little in comparison TO the demands In
some OF the settlements the people are actually
suffering from scurvy for lack OF wholesome
food. Already several deaths are reported as
having occurred for want of food and warmth
notably among them poor woman who gave
birth to twins during storm. Before the neigh
bors could reach her she had expired and the only
reason was the prevailing oneIwant OF suiiicien az
food All the money sent VIII be expended IN
food and fuel. yet the demand TOR bcdclotnes ana
clothing Is universal. One or our missionaries
says: II have a minister here who. If could get
clothing for him. could preach and conduct religious
services. but II IT, he Is unpresentable. one or
my superintendents came In and said: must
give up the Sunday school. / have no clothes mt

they cannot meet them. and hence help from
