MONDAY EVENING, DECEMBER %. .

TIE Poor oFTHE Cry. The condition Of
the poor of the city is becoming matter OF
serious considerations serious as to demand
the immediate attention Of all the charitably
disposed. On Saturday last, four carts were
unable to supply the needy with the tuel which
had been granted them by the city authorities;
and without another appropriation to the wood
fund is received, from some quarter, much
suffering will necessarily ensue. The Soup
House fund also, has, owing to the numerous.
demands daily made upon it, become very much
reduced, and must soon be replenished if that
charity is to be continued. Mayor Latham,
last week, transmitted to Col. s. p. Lee, a
communication of which the following is copy,
relative to the destitute freedmen now in this
city: 49, MAYORS OFFICE,
ALEXANDRIA, Dec. 18th, 1867.
HeP. Lee, Capt. and Brevet Lieut.. Colonel:
DEAR SIR: The numerous applications at
this Office for wood, on the part OF destitute
colored persons not residents here previous to
the war, prompts me to inform you that this
Corporation is not able to take charge of or
assist such persons. There is more restitution
in this city,.at this time, than | have ever
known before, and the necessity for prompt
relief is very great. The Overseers OF the Poor
Inform me that the wood now on hand will not
more than take us through this winter-ln TACT
we will be truly grateful if we are able to pay
for The wood as. fast as it is disposed of. My
impresslon is that 800 cords Of wood more than
you now have will be required to supply the
demand Oh your Office, even if it is destituted
on the most economical principles. It's very
desirable that further efforts should be made
to induce the INDECENT of our city to take homes
in the country. The efforts of your depart
ment were rendered almost nugatory by the
denunciations OF certain papers inimical to the
idea Necessity will compel our authorities to
enforce rightly the laws on vagrancy and it
is to be hoped that 70 factious opposition
will be made to the impartial enforcement OF
said Law, and thus prevent our INDECENT popula-
ton from taking homes in the rural districts Of
this or the other States of our union, and thus
ameliorate their condition and materially bene-
fit the whole country. Hoping your efforts to
assist the poor in our city during the present
winter may prove successful l remain your
obedient servant, HUGH LATHAM.
The subject OF relieving the wants OF the
poor of the CITY, will, it is understood, receive
the consideration Of the City Council at it's
next meeting.
