We entered the stinted den by an ap- I leertureabout. three feet high and Mend one or 'ten children lying asleep, with their eyes open, in thteatettw. Such, at least, was their appearance, sfor :they scarcely winked while we were before thena. The father cametn, and told, us a pitiable • story of *want, saying that not' a m orsel of food' had they tasted for twenty-four hours. He light- Oda whisp of straw, and showed us one or two -• more children, lying in another' nook in the cave. _ 'Their mother had died, and he was obliged to • -leavethem alone during most of the day, in order, to glean something for, their subsistence. We were soon among the most wretched hate rations that :I bad yet seen, far worse than those Skibbereen, ;Many of them were fiat-roofed bire q s,=half buried in the earth, or built up against the rocle, or covered with was straw, sea-weed or turf. In' one,which was ecarcely seven .feet seaare, we found two persons prostrate with the • fever, and aPparently near their end. A girl about sitteea,"the very picture of despair, was the only eire'deft Who -could administer any relief; and do was to bring water in a broken ;pitcher tetra:lake their parched lips. As we pro se:aided up the rocky hill at erlooking the seene,, we encountered new -sights' of wretchedness. . ~ Seeing a cabin_itandingseomewhat by itself in a ::-hollow; and surrounded by 'a moat of green filth, we entered it 'with some difficulty, and found a, 'Slagle child, about_ three years old, lying upon a '.lliad of shelf, with its little face resting upon the sedge of the Ward, and looking steadfastly out at the door, as if for its mother. It never moved its eyes as we entered, but kept , them fixed toward the _entrant*. It is doubtful whether the poor thing, had a mother or father left to her; but it is • Vottoke dotibtful still whether thn,e eyes would have I =relapsed their vacant gaze if both of them bad I entered at once, with everything that could'tempt the palate in their hands. No words can describe this peculiar appearance of the famished children. Never have I seen such bright, blue, clear eyes, lookiriesoateadfastly.at nothing; I could almost faecal that the angels,of God had been sent to um seal the vision - of those little patient, perishing creatures to tf a beatinulis of another world: and that were listening to the whispers of unseen apin'M bidding thern to "wait a little longer." Leaeing this tie entered another cabin, in which wc found seven err.;eight: attenuated young crea ,tures;with a mether who had pawned her cloak, and could, not Venture out to beg for, bread, he. eauseiffie was not fk to be teen in the streets. Hearing the voice of wailing from a cluster ce litits farther up the hill, we proceeded to them, and in cine, found several persons weeping over the dead body of a woman lying by the wall near th :Cl* Stretched Nem the ground, here and there,' lay several sick persons, rant the place seemed a I den 'of pestilence: The filthy straw was rank I with the festering fever. - Leaving this habitation , • of death, we item met by a, young- woman in an +lvey of despair, beeapse no one would give her . coffin to bary her Tatber in. She pointed to a tart at some distance, upon which his body lay; and she was about to follow it to the grave; and pbe leas ettela a good father, she conk! not Warm lay htai ijke a behat in the ground ; and.the.-beg I ;:serecht. coffin "fer the honor ef 'I Bile she Avias wailing and weeping fur this bdon, I cast my! ry,dowards the cabin We had just left, and a sight znatmy view whicb, made roe , shudder with hor ;The hashand of the dead teinum came out, with. her body upon his shooblers,2 slightly`core'-ed with a piece of rotten canyas'e. , I will not dwell upon the details of this spectacle.! end'elowly. Ile bare the remains of the • lam-compaidon of his misers - to the cart. IVe -follis-est hint a little way off, and saw him depus to his burdea alongside of the tatter of the young 14 iMata, by her assistance. -As the two varied to ;he gravelaril to bury their own dead, we pursued our walk still turther -oe, and entered another cabin, ;where we encourr ,tei-ed the -climax of hirman misery. Surely. thought t.While'regarding this new phenomenon of stiffer -ing,iihare can be no lower deep than this between us.and the bottom of the grate. On asking alter - the condition of the inmates, the woman answered ' by teking mit of the straw three human skeletons, ..tanging•from two;or three feet in height and en tirely naked;_.and these human things were alive' If they bare'been dead, they could not hate been such frightful stsctacles. They were alike; ant wonderful to say, they eould stand upon their tees, ; 'and even walk ; but it was awful to see them do le: Had their bones been divested of the skin that held them together and been covered with a veil of thin muslin, they woold :tot have teen more viEl ble. Especially wfien one of them clung to the door while a eister was urging it forward, it ae eumed an appearance which-can have been sel• door paralleled this side of the grave. The effint which it made to cling to the door disclosed every I joint in its !lento while the tki, rest Imes of old age furrowed its face. The ei du -mg of ninety years , of sorrow seemed to ehronicile its record of ~.stro upon the poor child's countenance. I could bear no more, and We returned to Skibbereen, after "having been all the afternoon among those abodes, -of misery.' On our way we overtook the cart with , two aneoffined bodies. The man and young,wo- I ,min were all thatattended them to the grave -test year, She funeral of either would have called - out hundreds or mourners from those hills: but now the husband drove his uncoffined wife to the grave withoit a tear in his eye, without a word of sorrow. - ACtd - syet it seams that even AIM: theee—and .mauy , moreslike them—lye have not reached the topmose .height.., artr. Burritt resumed his soul - sickening investigations still at other days, at one of which 'he says: "sZhe last cabin we visited in this painnil walk, presentee al lower deepen . - misOry. It I was the residence of two tainiV.te, troth of which ' had been thinned down as half their original num-1 ,ber by the sick:nets. The first sight that met Me eyes , on: entering was the body of a dead woman, extended on one side of the fireplace. On the oth er was an old man lying oft some' straw, so far gone, ea to.be unable to articulate distinctly. He might have been Mrrety or fitly years of age. It was difficult to determine; for the consumption of want brings out the extremest indices of old age in the features of,even the roue-. But there was -another apparition which sickenrd all - the flesh and - blocal•of my Elaine.

I had 'seen men at work on the public roads with their limbs swollen almost to twice their Usual size. But when the.woman of the cabin lifted from the. straw, from behind the dying man, a boy about twelve years of age, and held him up before us upon his feet, the most horrifying spectacle met our eyes.

Many inhabitants of the cities of Pittsburgh and !

And the contribu -tors believing that a Hospital appropriated for the reception, of the insane and afflicted, as well as the sick, infirm and helpless poor, would accomplish' the objects they anxiously contemplate, have at a public andteneral meeting representing the amount of subscriptions agreeably to the terms of the writ ten instrument to which their names are affixed, held at the Odeon Building in the city of Pittsburgh, on'thia 20th day of April, 1541', combined and fora:- ed themselves into a charitable association, and agreed to and adopted the following fundamental : articles for their government : Ist.
