lHE NAoRANTs.-What can be done
Grid us Of these pests They are as the
locusts of Egypt. A great stout able
bodied man approached us the other day,
all curled up into the very quintessenee
of an Uriah Heap, aud gave us II long
gutteral humble, the only plain words
of which were "a piece of bread" which
was plain enough. We generally hand
over the bread in such cases, but taking
look at the athletic man before us, an
parently strong enough to put any dozen
ordinary men to flight, we referred him to
the first selectman, and the more we re-
ferred him to that officer the more he
seemed inclined to leave town. We
therefore continued to explain to him the
duties of that official as one who would
investigate his application Cor board
whereupon hemade very fair timei in exact
lythe opposite direction we gave him from
the headquarters of our worthy select
man, and so far as we know actually left
our beloved village. The Brattleboro
Recordspeaks of hefrequent applications
OF this class, and says the "only way to
to get rid of them would seem to be to
let them starve themselves out. As long
as people will continue bestowing upon
them, so long will they annoy the pub
lie with their presence" And yet there's
the danger of neglecting some who may
be worthy of our charity We see no
sure remedy at present, but if hauled
up for investigation, they are pretty
sure to retreat Suppose we have a va
grant investigator?
