APPENDIX.
Eleven thousand two hundred and seventy-two rescued from almost certain destruction ! At least ten thousand of these may be regarded as saved, who, but for the interposition of the Children's Aid Society, would have been lost. If, as we are told, there is rejoicing over one sinner saved, have not the friends of the Society abundant cause for thankfulness and gratitude ?
The report of the Children's Aid Society, from which these state- ments are taken, sums up the long and effective service of this institu- tion to the welfare of the city, and proves the priceless worth of the ministry of Rev. Charles L. Brace among the children and youth of New York. His volume of Plain Serions to Newsboys is the first fruit of what should be a new department of literature or oratory-the adap- tation of great truths and duties to minds of little culture and many trials, wants, and temptations.
