CHAIRMAN. Rev. S. H. Widdrington, Vicar. HONORARY SECRETARY. Rev. P. Sainsbury. The above Society has been formed by the amalgamation of The National Female Emigration Society (London) with The Colonial Emigration Society (Birmingham), with a view (whilst reserving the right of contributors to appropriate their funds towards the Emigration of Single Females) to combine the strength of the two Societies for the purpose of carrying out more effectually the objects common to both. objects of the society. I.—To disseminate information on the subject of Emigration. 2.—To afford advice to intending Emigrants. 3.—To facilitate arrangements for the passage of Emigrants to the Colonies. 4.—To make advances to Emigrants by loan or otherwise (whenever the funds of the Society shall permit) towards their outfit and passage. s.—To correspond with the Imperial and Colonial Governments in reference to the labor requirements of the several Colonies, and the classes of Emigrants needed; and to obtain their co-operation and support. The mode in which it is intended to carry out the above objects is as follows:— I—By the formation of a Committee of Ladies, and another Committee of Gentlemen selected from the general body of subscribers, and the appointment of a paid permanent Secretary at the Central Office in London, where every information will be afforded gratuitously, and where pamphlets and publications in connection with all the Colonies may be obtained at a reasonable price. 2.—By the establishment of Branch Offices in the large towns of the United Kingdom, under the management of Local Committees. 3.—By establishing Corresponding Committees in the Colonies, to co-operate with the Society in England, and especially to provide for the reception of Female Emigrants upon their arrival at the port of debarkation. 4--—By providing a temporary home in London, where single Female Emigrants, who may have been accepted as fit recipients of the Society's assistance, may be received and visited by the Ladies' Committee. By securing, in co-operation with the " British Ladies Female Emigrant Society," duly qualified Matrons for the superintendence of single Female Emigrants, and by providing materials for their employment during the voyage. 6.—By raising funds by grants, donations, and subscriptions in Great Britain and her Colonies, to carry out these objects, and to facilitate, at the pre-
