We have not yet lost 80 much Of our faith
in humanity as to believe that an who lend
a helping hand TO their suffering fellows do
it from interested motives, or mere ostenta-
ton; but when we know Of any one, while
bestowing aid himself, imputi9g sinister
motives to brother helper, we doubt his
own sincerity. The Boston Transcript Of
Saturday, IN leader which we heartily en-.
dorse, in speaking Of the Portland calamity,
finds consolation in the fact that it is
means Of the 1bringing out Of high and
beautiful qualities Of head aud heart which
il were Hietsd and sslfss not 10 Recognized I"
We italicize this truth Cor the purpose of
holding up the Transcript to its own judg-
ment Henry W. Dutton 4 Son contributed
$50 to the Portland sufferers, and while ap-
proving Of the sentiment Of the leader of Sa-
turday, we should never have thought Of i'm
putting selfish or unworthy motives to. the
apparent liberality of the publishers, but for
the wicked and selfish irnputation they cast
upon the Boston canlkers, who, though un.
able, in their present straitened circnm-
stances to contribute labor in the concrete
form Of money, volunteered themselves
bodily to assist the sufferers. For thus
volunteering their all, the Transcript, 10
another column OF the same paper, remarks :
"The offer oft caulkers to go to Portland
has been declined, Men who viii work only
eight hours day are not wanted amidst
CONGREGATIONS. The Forest City" has suf-
cred enough already, without having dema
gogues sent there to stir up strife between
Employers sg1d employed"
We leave our readers 10 And out the self
Landed thigh and noble qualities" Of the
party who gave paltry $50 out Of their
abundance, and at the same time sneer ut
men who volunteer soul and body for the
same object.
The above is copied from the Boston
Evening Eoics. s 10 1e-s
We would remark in addition TO what has
been said, that while we fully appreciate the
bencvolence Of those, who have contributed
to the relief OF the unfortunate sufferers,
justice IS after all higher virtue than bene-
Violence. II is not so glaring; is not pro-
claimed to all the world through the press.
The man who labors aud tolls, and puts
himself to inconvenience to pay debt, the
payment of which he could delay or, per-
haps, avoid altogether, is more worthy Of
our admiration than the man who doles Ont
twenty-five or Rfty dollars from his thou
sands Many OF the Portland sufferers have
lost half OF their estates; some have lost
more and some have lost less. One has
been cnt down from $500, 900 to 800, geo
smother from 100000 to $50, 900, and one
from $4,000 to $4,000. These have
enough left to enable them to live comfort
ably and respectable. They will suffer nc
real distress. And yet what a wall goes up
all over the country for their misfortune
II il generous to respond to their call for aid
it would be inst to hear the appeal Of the
wofkingman who is struggling on in poverty,
darkness, doubt, and almost despair-ii
would be Just to hear his appeal in behalf Of

Usher: :"
"Mr Printer, how is it you have never

then we ask him." Nt
