THE POOR

We understand the committee Of the Provi-
dent Aid Society charged with that duty. had
yesterday, an interview with General Howard,
IN regard 10 the proper course to be pursued
toward properly relieving the poor OF the city
After full and pleasant Interchange OF views,
II was decided best to close the several soup
houses on the ist of March proxino. After that
time the Freedmen's Bureau will assume
charge of the freedmen, snd the society will en-.
deavor, far as its means will permit TO re-
heye the other classes requiring assistance
We understand that il Is Gen. Howard's in
tention 10 use any appropriation made by Con-
gress for the relief of the poor under his imme-
diate charge for the purpose of providing work
for them, and paying for the same At fair rates,
rather than to expend it as purely Charitable
iund-in the meantime relieving, of course the
wants OF those who, from any cause, are not
able to work. This Is the true course, and in
adopting it Gen. Howard shows his usual
sagacity and good sense.
To enable the Proyident Aid Society to carry
out Its undertakings in this arrangement addi-
tional funds are needed, which it is hoped will
be supplied without delay, otherwise its opera
tons must be brought to a close at a time " hen
there Is still great need for them.
