STARVATION IN NEW YORK. Where the General Stagnation of Business is Most Keenly Felt. The suffering among the poor who are visited by the Itev. Ur. J yng's mission aries are fearful. Every morning the basement of the church in Forty-second street is crowded with applicants for,food; bnt the committee's treasury is so low on account of ihe absence of the wealthy members of the church that many are turned away unrelieved. The sufferers are chiefly widows and young children, who, for lack of nourishment, are nnable to withstand the intenre heat. Some in stances of actual starvation are mentioned. Complaints have been-made against the wealthy congregations, that send their miuisters on costly European tours, close their churches daring the season, and neglect their suffering poor members. : Among the many eases of distress is that of a well dressed respectable woman who called upon Dr. l'yng's assistant pastor, Mr. QluizifiaiiA almost "fainting, and when he handed her a glass of soda water she look out a hard crust of bread and ate it ravenously. i A widow and her young daughter and son, who are unable to find work, have been for some time liv ing ontwo dollars a week. In a garret without any other furniture than an old dry goods box for a tble, and a broken chair, live a widow and her, five young children. In a closet; ja. d mattress and a blanket, which at night make a ,bed for the whole family. Ab aged woman who was once in affluent 'circumstances iwaa some time ago found j nearly dead with hunger, and it was only by careful nurs ing that ehe was saved; she ia still mainly dependent.upon Dr. Tyng's charities. A young man, whose family were gradually starving, was driven to despair and intent on suicide. He was j relieved and work for a few days sec urejl him. The child of another died on Saturday last, and not only was the father Unable to bury it, but he was nnable to provide food for his living family. A subscription. was raised in the Gospel tent, j Tbete are only a few of the many cases with which Dr. Tyng and his co-laborers luve had to deal.
