THE PLEASURES or ENGLISH PAUPERISM

THE PLEASURES or ENGLISH PAUPERISM
Mr.. Stansfeld, who Introduced into Parlia-
ment the Public Health bill, has recently in
stituted an inquiry into the system OF supply
of food, clothes, stores, and material provided
for the use of the Lonbn warehouses. The
reports concerning owe, twenty-nine work
houses are not in the least pleasant documents.
The fashion of providing supplies of food for
the paupers is often nasty without being cheap.
For wine, beer, and spirits the Metropolitan
warehouses; Westminster excluded) spent last
year f32,0OO; that is, f10,500 more than was
spent on groceries, f4,5OO more than
was spent on butter AMI cheese, only E36OOO
less than the sum spent on bread and flour,
and one fourth of the amount spent on meat.
And after all, the papers got horrible
beverage. The sherry turned out, on inspec-
ton, "a common mixtufe;" the brandies were
manufactured from corn, potato, or grape
spirits, and only one sample of gin, sent for
the workhouse of st. George-in-the-Ea was
fit for use. The teas were notwithstanding
but "Foochow siftlngs' worth seven pence
per pound. AT Camberw,ll, tea meant dust and
sweepings mixed with coarse green and some
spurious leaf and worth in bond from three
to four pence per pound. The milk was half
milk and half water.
But naturally the examination made the
strongest developments in respect of butter.
We are told that this article as furnished to
the paupers is ga terrible and odious COM
"poundn 1t had been made, by a trick
known to the trade, to take up water to in
crease the weight. Some of it passed OFT on
the Guardians as "fresho or Dorset was
really nothing but hOrse-fat, manufactured In
Hamburg into a greasy sort OF ointment,
known to the trade as "bosh butter" OF
course, under the influence of such an extra
ordinary diet, the paupers die. Here the dill
ference in the expenditures of the several
warehouses is very apparent. 10 bury a
Whitechapel pauper costs one shilling; at
Lewsham a pauper's funeral involves an ex-
penditure of thirty-sx shillings-and very
glad we should think the Whitechapel poor
would be to be buried, even at lower rate.
Readers have thought the descriptions Of
Mr.. BUNDLES economy in oliver Twist" ex-
aggerated but in this, as in so many other
cases, we find that the great novelist had a
solid substratum of fact for his fiction. What
astonishes us is that the Guardians should
think it necessary to furnish, even nominally,
such matters as butter and tea. OF course, the
health of the paupers would suffer infinitely less
from deprivation than from supply of these
spurious and horrible nesses. Horse grease
"worked up in Hamburg" or " Foochow. sift-
"ings" can hardly benefit, can hardly fail of
destroying the human stomach. Spurious sherry
and port, corn, potato or grape spirits, are
fluids without which inyalids would be much
more likely to regain their health. cheap
and healthy diet, with everything like deli
cacies excluded, but with sufficient attention
paid to variety, would be infinitely better than
a display of adulterattd wine, spurious tea,
and butter made of hOBe-fat.

DID HENRY WILSON ISLANDER THE
LEHSf

Mr.. Senator Wilson has fled in the news
papers a sort of general denial of all charges
against him which are bottomed upon the
particulars of his somewhat cratic and varie-
gated political life. Having been Wing pure
and simple, Conscience Wing, a Free Soiler,
a KnOw-Nothing, Massachusetts Coalitionst,
and Republican, his printed speeches are
necessarily full of sharp criticisms upon the
men and measures of all parties. When any
body wants sharp pin to stick into him, it
is only necessary to go back to his most mis-
cellaneous record. When people will do so,
Mr.. Wilson assumes the dignifed and
virtuOus with the least spice in
the world of the clustering. The
extracts are "pure inventions, wicked for
geries, and absolute falsehoods." What Mr..
Wilson would seem to imply is that he has
always loved everybody, and that he has never
spoken q sharp word of anybody. Whoever
says that he has, charges him with "abhor-
" rent sentiments, insulting to God and man.
The truth is, that the gentleman has talked so
much that he can hardly be expected to re-
member all his own golden, or brazen, or
leaden ntterances. He finds himself charged,
for instance, with sneering bitterly at the
Jews. 1t is. of course. perfectly easy for him

Gen. Butler has made a speech at Milford Mass
at which village metaphorcally, OF counsel he pros
traed himself before the President and so to speak,
kissed his great toe Gen. Butler has no fear OF the
One-Man Power-n0t he He declared in this speech
plainly that 1--WE want four years more of Grants
rule" The General was so pleased with this state
ment that presently he repeated it, 1--WE want four
years more of Grants rule" And then he said to
the men of Milford: "Recollect when you vote
that to vote for Horace Greeley is a vote to burn
school-houses a vote for murder and the violation
of women; vote to pay for the emancipated slaves
and for the payment of pensions TO the rebel
soldiers" When Butler does mako up his mind
which way he shall go. he goes it; thongh it must be
admitted that in this he goes 1t a little too
strong Its evident, however, that he has quite a
genius for forgiving injuries what be at one time
thought to be injuries. Still. we think for man
who has suffered from misstatement and exaggera-
ton, that he is hardly so sweetly charitable as he
should be. How would he like it to have an oppO-
nent come into his district and say: "A vote for
Butler is a vote for stealing spoons and for the
brutal and illegal treatment of yirtuous women'f

There! We told you SO! The Administration
organ did not invent Wood and Blumenburg the
North Carolina bogeys for nothing. Having over
and over again claimed the State in spite of the
Vaccinations of this compound DOGGY, w. and b.,
the organ now crashes its teeth and says:
'The whole Of their misdeeds will be unmasked and
the American people clearly shown by what arts the
reeeytes have attempted to give the politics of this
State a complexion TO their liking"
Again: "The precise whereabouts of neither APP
pear to have been known" And yet again shrieks
the frantic organ:
I is not too much to say that the Republican victory
has robbed OF its just proportions II 1t has not
been entirely snatched away solely by the Vaccinations
of these two disreputable tools Of the Reformers"
So, then, we have Wood and Blumenburg not only
attempting to color the politics of North Carolina to
their liking but actually snatching away the
half-earned victory from the lips of the expectant
ADMINISTRATORS. By all means, let us have these
fearsome bogeys unmasked, hurled headlong from
the ethereal sky exposed in all their true coors, and
made generally uncomfortable. "Chops and tomato
sauce gentlemen of the jury!"

laVe-Hunting In Muscat.

A correspondent of the New York
World gives the following account of a
slave-hunt in Muscat
A slave-hunt is conducted with much
formality: and the strategy called into
req1lsltlon IN one partakes of a military
character. Cavalry and infantry are
sent into the interior of the country, in
disciplined order, to take the negroes
unawares, and the troops employ natives
as their guides. These guides are usu-
ally shepherds or traders in the skins of
wild animals, their wandering occupa-
tons rendering it easy for them to act
as spies. and to lay snares for their
wretched fellow-countrymen. When the
night for the attack arrives the troops
advance, moving forward in breathless
silence. They have SO well calculated
their distance that they arrive at the
place to be attacked before daybreak,
and without risk of being betrayed. The
cavalry, taking the lead, at gallop, now
turn the flank of the village, forming a
crescent on one side of it, while the in
fanny, by concentrated movement,
blockade the other. So soundly are the
inhabitants asleep that they seldom
wake up IN time to make good their
ESCAPE; nor does it often happen that
they have already done SO from having
received timely warning. Suddenly, at
the near approach of the assailants,
they wake up, and flying in every direc.
tor, make for the thIckets that surround
the village, the women carrying their
children in their arms and on their
backs, while they drag after them the

like an ant-hill that has been intruded
upon.

DYSPEPSIA OR INDIGEsrIoN.-Who of

ills and varied forms of this hydra
headed tormeuter, which originates
from loss of tone in the stomach, or

scribe all the symptoms and various

there IS nothing more certain than that

EsS-ARENEWER,

Every year increases the populari-
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which IS due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. It removes all eruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from filling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, MD,
State Assayer of Massachusetts,, says,
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and | consider it the BEST PREPA-
RATION for its intended purposes"
