1 APPEAL TO THE BENEVOLENT . 41 , Turnmill-street , Clerkenwell . Permit me to draw your attention to the following circumstance , which I feel assured will excite your sympathy : — About four m nths since there arrived in London from the Coutinent , more than 80 Refugees , many of whom were in good positions in their native land , and took part as officers and soldiers under the noble-minded Patriots , Kossuth , Bern , Dembinski , and others , in the great and unequal struggle for the Independence of Hungary . Others gave their aid under the bravo Garibaldi and Mazzini in defence of the rights of the Roman Citizens . Adverse cicumstancea compelled these Patriotic men to take refuge in Switzerland , from which place , while enjoying the rights of hospitality so justly due to them for their exertions in the cause of Universal Liberty , they were , by the machinations of the Noithern Powers , forced to leave their temporary home , and take refuge in England . Here they have hitherto eked out a truly miserable existence , scarce fit for malefactors expiating the penalties of their crimes , much less for men who left their homes and every endearing tie in the cause of freedom . A Committee of Operatives , at the wish of the Refugees , endeavoured to alleviate the misery in which they were placed , and by dint of great exertions they succeeded in renting a temporary buildin ^ c apable of containing sixty persons ; the situation is not such as the Committee could wish , but the most rigid economy has necessarily been studied , owing to the small amount of money at their disposal ; for the support has been much more limited than could have been expected , considering the sympathy these noble , but unfortunate men deserve at our hands in consideration of their devotion to the cause of Liberty . t But the haggard looks , miserable accommodation , scanty clothing , and insufficient food which they silently endure , and the fact staring us in the face of one officer recently dead and several others ill , it would be culpable in us to longer defer this appeal to tho 3 e who cheered the efforts of Kossuth , Bern , and Klapka , and admired the energies of Garibaldi and Mazzini . Trusting this appeal to your assistance will not be made in vain , the smallest contribution will be thankfully received , to aid us in our endeavours to improve their condition until they are acquainted with our language and can do something to maintain themselves , or are enabled to return to their native land , doubly dear to the exile . Subscriptions received by T . BROWN , Sec , 41 , Turnmillstreet , Clerkenwell . Announcements will be given in the press , if required . A few Refugees who speak the English language take part in the Committee , and the whole business is open to any friend who may please to pay a visit to the Fraternal Home . We remain your obedient servants , On behalf of the Committee . WILLIAM LUNN , Chairman . THOMAS BROWN , Secretary . Feb . 8 , 1851 .
