France and has been the means of relieving a vast amount of human misery. ' Latterly it has been ex 'tending itself to foreign countrrett, and about a month since some of the S eters came to Philadelphia, where they opened an asylum for the indigent aged of all creeds. , Relying wholly upon the lierte .volence of - the community, they have :nothing but what msy be contributed by the - epontaneolls offerings , of thOse who May be moved by the simple-but sublime self-devotion" of the &sten to thCir good work.
