FIRST ANNO Ali RETO HT OF TUE LADIES' YOTTTAI. AID ]
ASSOCIATION, JUNE C I'll, 1807. ' '
To tho members of this Association wo wonld
rospoctfally suggest a retrospectivo view of tho
picture presented to tho mind s oyo ono yoar ago,
tf they would nco tho good which baa boon dono,
itt that short period.' by their united offorts.
Thon, as an unorganized houuftil of ladies, aur
l nunile J by diatroaa, and unccrtninly of tho futuro
on ovory timid, wo stood willing to rolicvo tho
pressing poenniary ueecaattioa of tho community
in which wo moved, yet s.-arcolv ablo to rom
prohond how auch benefit could bo proditocd
without lucina of aoy description, ovon to coru
monco tha apparently vast project winch had
bcon conceived in tho minda of a fow who had
placad their trust in an overruling Providence,
and launohed boldly out to moot the difficulties of
thoir position. i j
Juno Gth. 18GG, a call waa mado to ni! who might
wiall to bocotno interested" iu tho ii ohio Object of
benefiting thoso who wore in ? et rem, to moot at.
ono of tho rooma of tbO Milla Houao, which had
Inion kindly offered by tho proprietor for tho occa?
sion, but owing to tho inclemonoy of tho woathor,
only a fuw wara ablo to attend, 'l im Adsoeiallon,
however, waa organizod that ' afternoon, at the
auggOHtion of a clergyman of thia city, and tho
wook following anotuor'riieeting wis appointed at
tho Hibernian Hall, which was much moro RUC
oosaful. Tho oOiccra woro thon elected, consisting
of a Prosidout, Vico-I'rcsidcnt, Secretary and
Ti onion or, Hoard of Managers, 8iipor?ntond?nt,
sui eight Wnrd Superintendents. Subscriptions
caro token up after tho Tooting, mid it was resolv?
ed that tho Association should go immodiatoiy
into operation.
Measures woro very 'soon 'afterwards taken to
proa uro suitable rooms for the ladina to carry ont
thou plans to tho foil oxtont, and such wore /band
at, tho Dopoailory, Chalmers street, " which tho
tina tous kindly placed ai tho disposai of the Li?
dien, provided wo could underbtbe tho necessary
rcpairs. Horo, over omeo, a wookir nicotine; has ,
boon hold by tho lio rd of Miningera, to arrango
tho buaincau of the Aaaociation: and tho work hos
boon distributed ovory Monday to tho Ward bupor
intondonbs, and through them to aa many needy
18 our limited means lins enabled ns to supply.
The quantity of material-for work, in proportion
to the want, of tho community, has necessarily
boon restricted; but to thoao who wore within
reach of ita aid, it certainly has produced errat
benefit-wo would rather say aoknowtodgodbonoflt.
In order to refund ourselves for tho outlay mado
oaoh woek in tho purchas: of material for work, it
be carno nocoasary to dispose of tho artioloa thus
accumulating on our hands, and for this purooao,
ono of tho rooma al the Depository was opened aa
a ''Sales Hourn," whero ono or moro of tho moin
bors of th ' Board of Managers have taken their
turn c.ich day throughout tho year in attending ,
personally tu this department. Tho proceeds of
them' salua have, it is true, rarely ever mot tho
ea linni e of tho succeeding week, on account of tho
difficulty of disposing of tho stook ; but it has
been a great assistance, and with Ibo incroaso of
outside interest in tho cause,. has onablod us to
continuo our ofibrts up to Ibo present timo.
Froi mu ii ly, when tho members of tho Associa ion
havo boon in groat perplexity, not knowing where
to look for aid, but supported by s strong faith,
that Ho, in whom we had at first placod our trun t,
and who had permitted us to uotnnionco our work
of charity, would not allow it to ho frustrated, a
Providential hand has been outstretched to us I
from a source whence, perhaps, wo lind lo ist OX- 1
pecjed ass launce; and thus havo wo bcon en shied,1
linio nTtur lime, when reduced to tho lowoat point,
to roulizo renewed hopefulness.
, On ono occasion, wm'ii ulm ont in despair, at (ho
oud of tho bast quarter. $3000 was sent "from the
"St. Louis Southern BA lief Association" to Oberina
ton, to bo distributed to tho greatest . dvantago j
f?j^HiW-^? ^p.5^^KJ?l?-..5?
to tho Mutual Aid Aaaociation na tho best organ
for its distribution. Too Assoo ation immediately
set asido clothing to tho value of $500 fer gra?
tuitous distribution.
Several times bavo donations of $50 and $100
bcon received from our own people, and from thoao
ol tho North, who, li carin g of the dark clouds,
whioh encircled our infant Association and threat?
ened it with prematuro destruction, carno with
kind hand ind intcroa.od heurta to roniovo bur
fears, and unco moro placod in our power tho
moans of usefulnesa. In this connection, wo would
mention tho receipt of $100 at one timo, and moro
rec on Hy of a Bowing machine from tho New York
Southern Belief As ociation. wldoh WO havo al
ready acknowledged with uincero thanks to tito
donors, -
Oaring tho "year wo have boen called upon to
mako several changos in oar officers, in conso-' j
quouco of thoir chango 'of resilience, Among
thoao we would mention the loss of our first Super?
intendant, and also of t.vo or tlaroo of tho Ward
Superintendents. These removals have always
oanaod a fooling of regrot, aa they were tho moans
of interrupting tho friendships Which resulted
from tho common bond of sympathy existing be?
tween those so intimately and . constantly thrown
in contact with each other.
With regard to the benefit which tills Asso- I
ciation has pro iticed, we will only add, that tho
strongest proof of its aaefulnsas is tho testimony
of those whom it has enabled lo support them?
selves, if not entirely, at least partially. Many
who havo obtained work from this institution havo
said, that, but for iba assistance they would 'Jave
wanted bread; and tho vacancies in its offices havo
always boen immodiatelly filled, without any diffi?
culty, irom among t..oso who hud previously re
ceivo-d its oasiatauoJ, and had soon and felt tho
benefit af Its labora,
'thorn aro bout seventy parsons each weok who
receive employment from this Association, and
ovory effort bas been mado to distribute tho work
aa equally aa possiblo among tho numorous appli?
cants; hut this, as may bo readily porceivod, is not
adonnato to tho dUtross prevalent throughout tbs
community. Hope still, howover, stands forth to I
oncourago tho beliot that our usefuln sa will bo
im roa.-ed in tho future, and surely abo ?ill havo J
S tor final reward fur patience and perseverance.
I Tho nu nth r of regular subacriboni whiob at tho
I ond ot tho last quarter amounted io 505, bas since
b on reduced ?o 490. Ot -.bis number, with pain'-'
! ful intet eat wo record that flvo or six havo boen re?
moved by ibo Providence of Ood, whilo others
havo found it absolutely impossible, to continue
their subscriptions, although lt is only tho small
sum of ono dollar per annum. Thia has been ono
great oauso of our difficulty. ' Tho limited number
I of our subscribers, which will not even pay Um I
.-.ulai iou of OUT o filen ru, h. 8 loft US continually do
p. ii dont uisan tho reception of donations for bur
support, and wo would the refero c mostly suggest
that tboao who can afford this small amount will

themselves in ita increase. '.' . - . . .
With tho above mentioned facta, therefore, be?

On tho saino day Mr. John Stuart Mill movod
his amendment, embodying a female Bufl?ago,
which, ho argued, was a logical conacquooce of
tho constitutional maxim that taxation and ropro
euntation go hand in band, mid of Mr. Oladatono's
dictum that' every ono bhonld have the franchise
who waa not unlit, or won.d not be dangerous to
tho public good. Women, bo assorted, in old
times had been allowed to voto f. r aomo counties
aud boroughs, and os to tl io arguments against it,
they wore utterly unpractical, and bad no founda?

tho city ot Loudon, the uno of which had been

Tho Loudon Star of ll io 20th of May reporta :
