New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1852-12-24

We heartily second J. d. RS suggestion
that the Churches, as such, take hold OF tue
work of organizing and directing the miscelia-
ueous charity Of our City. We do not THINK
the work can ever be permanently done by q
voluntary association, though it might be Tor
winter or two But let the Churches OF our
City appoint one to three members each 10
form General Committee TO meet and devise
plans for the due administration of relief to the
destitute; let this Committee be empowered
10 divide the City into districts and assign
each district 10 the care of some Church, or
(if that be deemed adyisable) appoint some
one or more Ladies to visit the poor families
residing in said district, ascertain and report
their needs, and the great enterprise will be
in train for thorough execution. With thor
ough organization, prepared to investigate
every case of alleged restitution and apply due
relief. we believe there would never be any
lack of funds-that One Million Dollars could
be raised for it to start with-it being under
stood that erery case of destitution should be
inquired into and all proper relief granted.
We know men who would gladly give $500 a
year to be relieved from the opportunities Of
begrars, and would make money by the bar
gain in time saving alone. 1t is of course 70
be understood that, so soon as this organlza-
ton shall have been perfected, it would have
Central and Ward Offices, TO which money,
clothing, &c, for the Poor might be sent, at
which application for relief might be made, and
that thenceiorth all begging in streets, stores
or dwellings should be indexibly discouraged,
or only responded to by a direction TO one OF
the Offices aforesaid
Christians of New-York is not this an en-
terprise worthy of your united and persistent
efforts Could there be a more conclusive
answer TO the cayils of Inidelity based on your
divisions, than this organization and its fruits
would afford We appeal to all the Churches
of eur City, Of whatever name or creed. TO take
hold of this great and most needed work of re-
leving honest Poverty and defeating the arts
of knayish Incidence and Dissipation.
New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1852-12-24

We can never permit such an essay as the
foregoing TO pass without repeating that tho
ultimate end to be arrived at is not the relief
OF restitution but its abolition. There is no
good reason for our city being infested with
beggers, as il now is. We believe one years
operation Of The MAINE LAW would transform
az least half of them into independent selfsus-
tanning wealthacquiring people; and then We
think proper and reasonable efforts by the more
fortunate would raise three-fourths of the re-
naming half out OF beggary by providing them
with employment There ought not to be
residue of more than three or four thousand
persons in our whole city who would need d.
rect aid, and these either sick, crippled. super.
animated or widows with young children, sud-
denly plunged into restitution by visitation
Of death. There are more money, provisions
and clothing now bestowed on begvsrs than
would suffice to feed all the hungry and clothe
all the naked, if they were only given IS they
should be.
