When the existing institution wae established in 1876 it was contemplated that provision should be made for the reception of two different classes of inmates, etinguished as Class A and B, and thus severally described in the original prospectns :— Class A.—For fallen women not hardened in vice and desirous to retrieve their position. Class B.—For those who have become hardened in vice but profess themselves anxious for an opportunity of reform. Up to the present time femalee belonging to Clasß A only have been received, the funds at command and accommodation not permitting the extension of the benefits to Claes B. The building has been recently enlarged, and the committee can now receive a limited number of the latter, who hitherto have been unfortunately excluded. Funds, however, are required for defraying a portion of the coet of the alterations; also, for providing furniture for the new wing and other necessary improvements for isolating the two classes. An appeal is, therefore, now made, both to the present annual subscribers and others, for special donations, and also to obtain additional names to the list of annual subscribers, in consideration of the importance of the effort to provide an opportunity of reformation for the unhappy cases referred to as class B. Instances are frequentlybronght under xotioe of the clergy and others where the advantages of. a temporary refuge would be gratefully accepted, and where, under kind and judicious treatment and Christian influence, there would be every reasonable probability of effecting a permanent reformation. The committee cannot but think it discreditable to a Christian community that hitherto no provision has bees made for assisting women whp have fallon into vicious habits, when desirous of abandoning a dissolute life, by enabling them to withdraw from the evil influence of bad associates, aa a first step towards their reformation. The committee,' havmg felt it as imperative duty to draw attention to the great need of help In this good work, confidently await the result of this appeal. Gifts of money will be thankfully received by any member of the committee, and clothing or provisions at the institution, Gashel street East Publications.
