The Catholic Times, of Philadelphia, has earned the sincere and lasting gratitude of every friend of the Irish Language movement by its liberality in placing its columns at the disposal of this fund.

In our last issue a subscription was acknowledged from Brownson Lyceum, Providence, R.I. This seems not to have been authenticated.

On this side of the ocean, workers in the movement have had their hands so full that they have not had time to make permanent arrangements for the raising and subsequent control of the Fund. In the meantime, Mr. John Hogan, 8 Leeson Park-avenue, Dublin, manager of the Gaelic Journal, will receive subscriptions, which he will lodge to a separate account, and acknowledge by letter and in the Gaelic Journal.
