TO alleviate the suffering. On the subsistence
Of the pestilenee a considerable portion Of
the fund was found to be unexhausted. The
people concluded TO ask for the passage Of an
net to incorporate an institution for the ben
eft Of the widows and orphans Of thosewh
had fallen by the disease, to which he fund
was TO be made over. A bill was according
~ introduced into the Legislature Of Virgin
10, now in session, for that purpose Among
the names Of the corporators were the MAY
or and Council Of Portsmouth, and the
President and Secretary Of the Howard As
ISOLATION, persons who of all others had
been the most active and efficient in that
work Of charity which had for the time be-
Ing placed their own lives ia imminent peril.
But the Legislature refused to pass the
biA as the people requested it, and on
motion of Locofoco member that Locofoco
Legislature expunged the names Of the cor
porators in the bill and substituted Locofocos
solely because il 50 CHANGED that the orirnal
corporators We're members Of the American
party. This is indeed pitiful and shame
less transaction, but as outrageous as it il
pitiful.
