Journal of the Workhouse Visiting Society. No. 28. 1864. (Long-

man and Co.)—This pamphlet is published quarterly, and repre- sents the results of the experience of those who have devoted them- selves to a most useful work,—that of visiting the inmates of our work- houses, and more especially solacing and relieving the aged and bed- ridden. The rule which prohibits the sick pauper from receiving any articles of food from private charity seems especially hard, but we be- lieve it is not very strictly enforced.
