big with indignant thoughts running THROUGH
the wild wilderness ofhis brain, rose up and said.
"Mr. Speaker am opposed to letting any
body have the penitentiary but the State.

We learn from the Advertiser that there is
much distress and suffering among the poor
IN Mobile. The Advertiser says that there
are hundreds Of persons within the city limits
who are dependent for a precarious subsistence
upon the charity of kind hearted individuals,
assisted by the county, the charitable societies
and the clergy, all of whose disposable means
are enlisted to their full extent. The Adyer-
tiser adds:
On Sunday the rector Of st. Johns episco-
pal church lifted the veil and gave his conerc-
cation a glance at the poverty and restitution
which prevail among the poor. Among other
facts, he stated that there were over fifty fami-
lies IN his parish who were entirely dependent
Tor subsistence upon charity, and daily SUFFERING

speak of the lack Of clothing and fuel, which
are scarcely less necessary than food in the

during the current season.
