Pauperism and Crime.

Much has been spoken and written about the
extraordinary strides which the New England
States have made in the arts and sciences, as well
us in religion and morals. We are constantly
told of the wonderful strides towards human
perfection that have of late been made in the
East. Indeed, we are informed that from the mo-
ment when the May Flower struck Plymouth
Rock morality has made rapid march towards
that perfection beyond which poor human nature
g1. 49, ~ 4" - --"u uIu.m I,.o.u ..L,.L
has been told us by their political parsons be
true, what a terrible set of morals must have
made up the freight of the May Flower, particu-
larly if we are to Judge from the unparalleled
amount of pauperism and crime which exists in
the New England States, as compared with that
which exists in the Southern States, according
to tie census of 1860, from which volume the
figures below are taken:

Improvem ent in Havre de Grace.

During the past year much Improvement in
the way of building has taken place in the town
of Havre de Grace, and there are in process of
building, and just Finished some very excellent
dwelling houses. Among those lately put up,
is one by james T. Wilson. On Union Avenue;
another by George F. Brston, on Franklin St.,
and Mr.. William B. Morgan has in course of
erection very fine building, intended as a resi-
dence.
One of the leading business men of the town
writes us that at this time there is much valua-
BILE property in the place for sale; and suggests
that there is no better location for merchant
mills or manufactures to be found than may be
had at Havre de Grace, and in this we entirely
agree with him. There certainly is no point
witt greater facilities ofegress and ingress. Stu
ated at the head of the Chesapeake Bay, and di.
rectly on the shore of the Susquehanna, with
tn Tide Water Canal on one side and the
Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Rail-
road directly through its centre, it would be
difficult to find place with greater facilities for
almost any kind of business particularly do we
regard the location us one of the best for the manu.
facture of grain, to be found in the State. Be-
sides having the advantages of the large grain
growing sections of Cecil and Hartford counties
in the very midst of which mills located at Hav-
re de Grace would be situated, they would
enjoy the benefit of the grain trade of the Susque-
hanna River and the Chesapeake Bay.
Another very great advantage of this location is,
that the manufacture of grain could be extensive
~ carried OH without the incumbrance and ex-
pense ofheavy teams.
There are many other reasons why this loca-
tion is peculiarly adapted to this particular
business, but we have not room now to pursue
the subject further, but will refer TO il again.

NEW ENGLAND STATES,
Total, $685. 93 74,462 1877
Totll, 6,493,532 1890

FROM this it appears (omitting fractons) that
while there is in New England pauper to eacu
40 and a criminal to each ia OF the population,
ton, in the Southern States enumerated there
was only pauper to each 45l and criminal to
each 8, 42l ofthe population. 1t is evident that the
much boasted superiority Of New England, on
account of her great moral purity and high in
telligence, tells better in rhetorical tlourishes
than statistical figures. What a story it tells
for the culture of Massachusetts, with her SUBJ
lime system of free schools and her innumerable
churches, tn It she has 81 $50 paupers and H.
773 criminals, while Alabama, one of the dark
corners Of the earth--a.fied of missionary labor
and phil nthropic effort two-th irds as large a
population had only 5s2 paupers and l79 crimi-
mails.
Massachusetts has in every forty of her popu
lation one pauper, and in every one hundred and
seventy-four of her inhabitants one criminal; or
ulalion OF l,23l ,OO6 has 81, $3.50 paupers and H.
773 criminals, Virginia, with population of
1886, 1913, has 927 paupers and COS criminals
From this it will be seen that the saye-holding
State of Virginia, with a population of three
hundred and sixty-f thousand and twelve
persons more than the free State of Massaehu-
sets, hats, according to the census of 1860, &c.
953 less paupers, and IL, l65 less criminals. Yet
with her paupers and criminals numbered by
thousands, in excess of the former slave States,
with her parsons turned into political lecturers,
and the pulpits and the Sabbath desecrated from
one years end 10 another with vulgar and vio-
lent political harangues, we are asked to draw
upon the wholesome atmosphere ofMass lchusetts
for the breath of moral and religious life. The
land of Hiss Committees and fortunate Generals
is to furnish us with morals and our children
with school books. The system of getting Mas
sachusetts school books and Massachusetts teach
ers in our schools has been too much the habit,
even in this State, and should be abandoned, be-
fore our children's minds are poisoned with the
same fanaticism that prosecuted Quakers and
drove Roger Williams into exile

RE p Q r T
CIR A ND JURY ,
ON THE
Condition of the Almshouse and
Jail.

To the Honorable JOHN H. PRICE,
Juoye ot'the Circuit Court for Hartford
county.
w L the Grand Jury of Hartford coun.
w ty, after acknowledging the cour-
tesy and kindness Of your Honor and the
officers of the Court, beg leave to report,
that in obedience to request of your
Honor we visited the County Jail,
through which we were conducted by our
worthy Sheriff, William Carsins, Esq,
and found it admirable kept, but the
building reflects no credit upon the ccun-
~. There are nine prisoners confined
therein, for various offences. After Il
thorough inspection OF the building, we
were invited into the sheriffs apart
ments, where we found table beautifully
spread with the whcrewithal to comfort
the inner man, TO which. we did ample
justice, aud for which we tender our
thanks
We also visited the County Almshouse
aud farm, now under the supervision of
john W Paca, Esq. The crops raised
the past year show that the farm has been
we'll managed, but We regret to find the
buildings SO entirely inadequate TO the
necessities of the county, and therefore
recon mend that the County Commissions
ers take the necessary Legal steps to en-.
II lie them to sell tie land IN the opposite
tide of the road from the buildings, and APP
proprlate the proceeds to the erection of
buildings suitable aud necessary for the
comfort Of the poor and destitute who are
thrown upon the charity of the county.
All of which we respectfully submit.

Sister. thou vast mild and lovely,
Gentle as the summer breeze,
Pleasant us the air of evening,
When it floats among the trees.
Peaceful he thy silent slunber
Peaceful in the grave so low,
Thou no more wilt join number
Thou no more our songs shalt know.
Dearest sister, thou hast left u.s.
Here thy loss we deeply feel
But It's God that hath hcrelt us,
He can all our sorrow heal
Yet again we hope TO meet thee,
When the day of life is fed,
Then in heaven with joy to greet thee,
Where no farewell tears she'd
The birds shall sing in the warm spring
And flowers shall bloom about thee,
Thou wilt not heed them, love, but obi
The loneliness without thee.
Father, VIII be comlortcd,
Thou vast the gracious Giver;
We yield her up not dead, not dead,
To dwell with Thee forever.
