THE MAGDALEN ASYLUM . A TOIOB FROM MOUNT MAQDALA AN APPEAL. IN appealing for subscriptions for the FIRST MAGDALEN ASYLUM in New Zealand, the Sistera of the "Good Shepherd ” desire to express, through me, their sincere gratitude to the inhabitants of this Oitj and the Oolonj generally for the kind co-operation afforded them since they commenced the great work to which their lires are devoted in their temporary residence, Manchester Street North, Hourly we meet with a poor Magdalen, tired of a misspent life, seeking a shelter, and finding no security against the biting tblasts of renewed temptation, turns away with the weight of the world's accusation, with the world’s condemnation, and becomes the victim of an unholy impulse, which cannot be recalled without a sigh nay, without a tear, Kindly, therefore, bear in mind—1. A most desirable site has been acquired for the Magdalen near Ohristohnrch. 2, Hit Eminence Cardinal Moran laid the foundation-stone at " Mount Magdala ” on the 18th February of last year, in the presence of 5000 people, and the first portion of the Asylum is nearly completed. 3, The advantages of the Magdalen will be extended to all New Zealand and elsewhere. 4. The waifs and the wanderers who are rescued from the paths of misery and sin are not asked to what creed they belong. It is sufficient that they need succour. 5. The inmates of "Mount Magdala*'and the Good Shepherd Nuns placed over them will remember always, with lively gratitnde, the benefactors of the institution. 6, Subscriptions may be paid either in part or in fall, according to the convenience of subscribers. ' 7. If, therefore, it were ever true to say "that be gives twice who gives quickly,” it is particularly so on the present occasion, in order that soon we may see another House of the Good Shepherd added to I the 150 Homes scattered over the globe | in which more than 4000 BitiaiEXTSM bestow their devoted care on 20,000 Obildrbh and young girls, while a judicious channel will be opened for the outlay of the Fumes entrusted to the iHSTIXBTIOir. 8, The Sisters of the Good Shepherd will be grateful to all those who enoourage their friends to subscribe to the funds of the Magdalen Asylum. The favor of an early response will enable mo to bring to a speedy conclusion an institution from which circles of good must emanate to exercise a salutory influence on the future of the Oolonj. j SUUSOBIBTIONS will also be received by Meiiis A, J. WHITE and H. H. LOUGHNAN ; and the Bev. Mother Prioress Convent of the Good Shepherd, Manchester Street North. Cheques and F.O. Orders to be made payable to me, L. M. QINATT, S.M., Mis.
