THE NEXT GRAB.

The Satanic, in chronicling the fall Of Santa

The dying bequest Of $4,000 by ABBOTT
LAWRENCE for building Model Lodging Houses
II Boston is one Of the noblest and wisest of his
many acts Of prncely benevolence. The lodg-
pRs of the Poor in cities are too often scandal
10 Christianity and libel on Civilization. They
might be greatly improved without increasing
their cost-Dsy, they forthwith should be. 1t is
a grieyous wrong on the part of our rich men,
who make money By letting tenements to the
Poor that they have not long since acted de-
sisvely in the premises. The poorest class in
cities generally pay the highest rents in proper
ton to the value Of their premises; yet they
very rarely have apartments adapted to their
needs; more commonly they occupy such as
were constructed for radically different pur-
pose, aud are RENTED to their use simply be-
cause they have ceased to be desirable Tor any
other.
In Europe, but especially in London, very
good beginning has been made toward reform In
this respect; and Mr.. Lawrense's practical
mind wss not idle nor unobservant during his
official residence in that city. He was already
acquainted with the evil; he here obtained a
knowledge of the remedy; sndhe has bequeathed
from his estate the means of initiating it in B's'
tor. The well-earned gratitude of thousands
will reward bis philanthropy.

On visiting the White Sulphur SPRING., in
Greenbriar County, Virginia, few days ago,
President Pierce was Unexpectedly honored
with a reception, the master of ceremonies
being the renowned ex-President Capt. John
Tyler. We give in another column some e1-
tracts from the speeches made. Gen. Pierce
spoke very largely of the Importance of pro
tecting the remotest and humblest citizen in al
his political rights, but probably he did not
thereby mean to allude to the Atchison outrage
upon the people of Kansas.
