When the existing institution was established in 1876 it was contemplated that provision should be made for the reception of two different asses of inmates, stingnishod as Class A and B, and thus severally described in the original prospectus:— 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 females belonging to Class A only have been received, the funda_ at command and accommodation not permitting he extension of the benefits to Class 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, ore required for defraying a portion of the cost of the alterations; also, for providing furniture for the now 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 frequentlybrought under notice 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 bnt think it discreditable to a Christian community that hitherto no | provision has been made for assisting women who have fallen into vicious habits, when desirous of abandoning a dissolute life, by enabling them to withdraw from the evil influence of bad associates, as a first step towards their reformation. The committee, having felt it an imperative dnty to draw attrition to the great need of help in this good work, confidently await the result of this appeal. Gifts of money will he thankfully received by any member of the committee, and clothing or provisions at the institution, Cashel street East. 1-22 9832 c HEISTCHUECH c ATHEDEAL Fund.

This sum, however, does not provide for floor tiles and window glass. In addition, provision must be made for furniture, organ, etcetera. The funds available amount to a little over £7OOO, balance of the £BOOO granted by the Synod out of the Church Property Loan floated in London. The Bishop of Christchurch and the other members of the Cathedral Commission, earnestly appeal to Church people and others for pecuniary assistance. The Commission have undertaken the completion of the nave, which, it is expected, will be available for Divine service in twelve months or so from date, believing that further donations will be forthcoming from the many who really wish to see a portion at least of the Cathedral finished. Donations or subscriptions, which may be spread over a term of years, at the option of the subscribers, will bo thankfully received by his Lordship the Bishop, the Doan of Christchurch, or by any other member of the Commission ; also by C. E. BLAKISTON. Secretary and Treasurer, 4-9 7553 Hereford street, Christchurch.
