the obphan asylum. The Board of Managers of the Orphan A?y!?m are again compelled to call upon their fellow citizens to aid them in the charitable wnvk in which they are engaged. i'-sr more than 30 years this noble charity }!an been sustained and supported by the vol untary aid of our citizens, and now that if is sfru^srlin.s; under embarrassment, unpreceden ted in its History, it is earnesly hoped that a libera! and generous response will follow this at)peal. Baring the past year, as many desti tute orphni) children as the limited means of tb* institution would allow, have been fed, clothed and instructed, and received the assid uous care of the Matron it: charge. These destitute ones appeal to us for aid.? Shall that appeal be answered and their simple wants supplied, or shall they he separated from the moral and re ligious influences of the Asylum, and returned to fcli5 cold charities of the world, with no <ne to care for or instruct them? The ladies in charge of the Institution are encouraged to believe that in a community so distinguished for its benevoieaee this will not be allowed, but the means necessary for their support, will be promptly and zealously supplied. In these days of sorrow and deep affliction, when orphan ? ageand distress seem the common lot of all. it is Well to be reminded that "Pure religion and uadefiled before God and the Father is this? to visit the fathe.defs and widow in their afflic tion, and relieve them of their distress." Sf3f Committees are now being formed in the respective wards to call upon the citizens for aid. When organized their names will be duly announced. In the mean time donations in money or provisions will be thankfully received by Dr. Henry Cook, at his drug store, No. 224, King street.
