The Town Poor.

At the request of some Of our readers,
we repub1ish today, the report Of the
Board of Supervisors. and call to it the
especial attention of those who have here
tofore wondered why our Taxes were so
high. Il will be seen that very large
portion of the expenditures have been for
the support Of PauPers. The Board have
managed the affairs of the town with the
greatest possible economy, yet with de
sire ,e do justice to all There are those
among US gho are as well able to support
themselves, as any other individual in
town, who have so little energy Of charac
ter, that they prefer rather to become
Torn. Papers, than 60 to work for a
living We are told that the Town has
supported as Paupers, one person who
was aG the time keeping a 6oara5llg house
and rassliziI.g a good profit from the bust
ness. AID another who was well and hearty.
and able to tell the time of day from a

Of publishing annually, land it would be
better # doae qarterly) the names of all
persons receiving aid from the town. and
the amount to each, we think viii have a
tendency to lessen the expenses some,
what, from the fact that same have too
much pride left to have It known that they
are Town paupers,
The resolution to purchase poor house
and farm, if carried out, must prove ad
vantag0us, for two reasons: First, many
who now apply for aid, if sent to such a
place raj -ht be made TO do much towards
earning living and secondly, the number
applying for aid will be greatly diminish
ed, for most persons, able to work, would
prefer beng their own employer TO being
obliged to work for the town, and get only
their support for so doing.
We are not in favor of permitting any
who are needy to go unprovided for We
hope ar sacL wiII receive aid promptly
aud amply fer their comfort, but with
many others we feel unwilling to pay
heavy taxes FIR the support Of such as are
able to earn their own living, and would
do so if thcy could not live easier BY liv-
ing upon the earnings of the more indus
trious.
Let tie present Board of Supervisors
carry ou1 the resolution Of the Town
Meeting purchase the house and lot, and
put those aF+1ying for aid under the su-
perintcudcnce of some good man for the
business, and our Pauper Tax viii soon

CaIiferaiaaS on thfir Way,

During the past two weeks very large
portion Of those who design going to Cal
ifornia the present season, have started
for the land of disappointment. We are
informed by a person who has taken some
trouble to ascertain, that the number leay-
ing this village and Immediate vicinity,
during the present spring for California,
will exceed taC0 hundred, and that the
whole number of emgrants from this place
since the gaeat excitement commenced.
cannot be less than Settn hundred! Not
withstanding all this, there is but little
falling eff in our population during that
time. New coniers are constantly taking
the places eff those who leave. and we i'm
agiue that in less than two years our pop
ulation will be much greater than before.
From Dodgeyille too, large number
have gone. and yet we are told there Is
not a vacant house in the town to be rem
ted. We wish 20 the emigrants much
success, but mere especially to those who
take their places here.
