EMIGRATION AND THE SOCIETY FOR PRO- MOTING CHRISTIAN KNOWLEDGE. [To

TEE Erwrox or THE SPECTATOR."] SIB.,—Having seen in your last issue the letter from Mr. Wood on this subject, and your appreciative footnote, may I be allowed to say that this Society, which spends nearly £3,000 a year on the spiritual and moral welfare of emigrants, will always be glad to supply information such as Mr. Wood obtained ? Application should be made here, or to the Rev. H. E. Elwell, Emigration Chaplain, St. Nicholas Vestry, Liverpool. I should add that the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge does not assist emigrants financially, but endeavours to care for those who have already decided to emigrate that the Church in the Colonies may receive those who are going to make their homes in the newer parts of the

Secretary.
