DEMANDING CHARIrY.-The effort now
being made relieve the necessities of the poor,
has opened wide field for impostors, who hour.
ly annoy every person engaged In the establish
ment of "Relief Houses and In seeking contri.
buttons for the helpless and destitute Several gen
tlemen inform US that they have been not only
harrassed but abused, because they did not feel
authorised to supply the demands of certain ap-
plicants, who admitted that they had been here
only few days, and had not even attempted to
get employment. Such creatures deserve neither
aid nor sympathy, and will no. be apt to receive
either

Coop BEelsrIse.-One hundred an

sxty-two persons were furnished with food at the
Relief House ON 18th street, last Thursday, and
about the same number yesterday. Persons in
distributing tickets TO the needy should put their
own names on the back of each one, and in no
instance should ticket be furnished until the ne.
cessities of the applicant are made known. When
strangers-paupers from other cities apply for
tickets their names and places of residence should
be taken and furnished to the Mayor, who, no
doubt has the power to send the applicant back to
the place from whence he came. This course is
actually necessary to prevent the city from being
overrun with Migrants from all parts of the Union
and should In no instance be deviated from

NEEDLE WOMEE.-NO class of our COM
munity labor more industriously, and for smaller
pay than the needle women. Day after day, and
night after night they toll, for bare pttauce too
proud to aak aid, and too honorable to seek relief
by any other means than their needles. Many of
them are destitute widows, with helpless children
to provide for; others unprotected ladies, who
by misfortune have been thrown upon their own
resources for livelihood. Such as these il is not
only duty but we feel assured It viii be pleas
cerely hope they may ali be made known and their
wants supplied. If any of our ladies are aware of
such, and will send their names and places of resi-
dence to the Relief House on 18th street, or to the
ladies of the Union Benevolent Society," we feel az
sured that their wants will be promptly attended to-

WOOD The last supply of wood sent to
the Mayor by the Virginia Central Railroad Com
pany has been exhausted, SO that these who need
fuel and are unable to purchase it, can get no more
from His Honor. When the next supply arrives
we suggest the propriey of placing It in the hands
of heoverseers of the poor, who have better op.
portunites for distributing it properly, and more
time to spare In giving attention TO 1t, than the
Mayor can possibly have. We know that he de-
sres this course to be pursued-not that he is un-
willing to do all he to relieve the distresses OF
the needy-but because the duties of his Office are
60 important that he cannot spare time to attend to
any other public business.
