Congress and the Poor.

The committee Of colored men appointed by the
mass meeting held in East Washington on
Wednesday evening waited upon the chairman
and other members of the House Committee on
the District Of Columbia, at the Capitol, ysster-
day morning, to urge the necessity Of some action
on the part Of Congress for the relief Of those
now suffering from want Of the necessaries Of
life. They were told that if it was possible to
get quorum Of the committee together this
morning bill would be introduced on Monday
morning regarding the appropriation of ten
thousand dollars for the relief of the poor of this
District. 1t is not improbable that the commit
tee will have sufficient amount Of means 10 pre-
vent the absolute starvation of some Of those who
are now hopelessly calling for aid. Another
meeting was held last night, at which the above
facts were reported, and the report was approved
The committee were instructed to use their ut
most endeavor to procure O larger amount than
ten thousand dollars, as II was thought that sum
would fall far short Of the amount necessary to
and positive need Of assistance.
