THE HIsToRY OF CRIME. At the Novem-
Der term of the Municipal Court of Boston, two
young men were tried and sentenced to the
State prison for shop-liting, one for five years,
and the other for six years. These were the
brothers Bradley, who were pardoned out at
the time of Mr. Lincoln's murder in the Mas
sachusetts State Prison. as witnesses against
Abner Rodgers. One of these brothers is s,
and the other 25 years of age, very intelligent,
capable, and respectable to all appearance, yet
gifted with an astonishing eagerness to pursue
dishonest rather than virtuous means of obtain
ing livelihood. In the Rodgers case, ChiefJu
tce Shaw complmented these young men upon
their intelligence, lamenting that such capacity
had been united to so great degree of moral
turpitude. They are now sentenced again as
common and notorious thieves.

CANAL Tolls. The amount of toll taken on
all the canals of New York, up to and including
the 22d ut., was Sa,432, 900. The amount re-
ceived since that time will probably be more
than sufficient to cover the amount which will
have to be repaid on property frozen up in the
canals. The toll received last year amounted
to the sum ofS2, $50.

[For the American Republican. I

.neSSrS. EditorS:-ln a conversation with an
intelligent German emigrant, was informed
that, in certain districts in Germany, the popu-
lation generally are in the habit of begging in
some form or another, while, in other districts,
the practice is hardly known. That from
these begging districts, those who make it a
profession in our streets, and are becoming
daily greater nuisance, come; while, from the
better districts, we generally receive an indus
trious population.
Now, as our alms-houses are known to be
literally crammed every winter with this de-
scription of begging German families, "fresh
from Germany" while our poorer population
are struggling against the pinchings of u cold
winter, would like to know how much tax is
laid upon the industrious classes of us all, whe-
Their natives or naturalized, to pay the expenses
we are compelled TO incur, for beef pork, &C.,
to feed these foreign paupers, who take up
their quarters in our aims houses, to save eX-
penses, until they can have time to suit their
own convenience, sc. And, as yours is the
only independent paper in this city on this
growing evil, will you he good enough to give
information on this subject to the
MECHANICS OF BALTIMORE.
We state in reply to the question asked
above, that the city's proportion of the poor
tax, in lS43, was S2l ,O35l6, as reported by
the city collaborating at the rate of 8 l-2
cents on the $500; or within a cent and half
as much as the levy in support of the public
schools. But it must be recollected that Balti-
more county also contributes to the poor fund
so that the whole expense of the alms-house
is probably not less than $50 900 per annum;
and if foreign paupers continue to be transport
ed to our shores, we may expect to have this
sum doubled in the course of a very few years.
We should like to see a list annually published
of the paupers in the alms-house, designating
their country, and whether citizens or unnatu-
rallied. l-ED. AMER. REpUB.
