AN APPEAL.
THE SISTERS who direct ST ANTONIO'S CONVENT at Macao will be very thankful to Shop-keepers, Linon-drappers. Clothiers and Tailors in Hongkong, Macao, and elsewhere who will sand to them remnants of materials, books of patterns no longer used, and any pieces of cloth; no matter how small, of which they can- not make use.
Those who send will thus, at no cost to them- selves afford the numerous hands in the convent, especially the little ones, opportunity for useful occupation; for pieces of cloth, even of a equare inch, can be stitched together and very pretty pieces of work made out of doth, that would otherwise be thrown away These articles are bought by charitable persons and the Sisters are thus helped to keep up their very large establishment, which is maintained by the aims of friends and in a great messure by the earnings of the girls themselves who lead by no means an idle life within the convent Walls
