Pauperism in England.

This years first monthly return Of
pauperlsm in England states the num-
Der of persons receiving relief from
the rates at the end of January, 1877,
as rs per cent. less than at the cor
responding period of 1876. The 1885,
$40 indoor paupers show an increase
of 1893, the 532, S24 outdoor paupers,
decrease OF 1854; but there must
be about per cent. added to the total
for Migrants and lunatic paupers in
asy]ums. which TIVE classes are not in
cluded in these monthly returns. The
present return shows an improvement
ID the extent of 6.5 per cent. on the
eastern side of England, from the En-
glish Channel up to Yorkshire, and
50 per cent. in the South-Midland,
and 50 per cent. in the North Midland
division. In the Metropolis the de-
crease OF paupers is 30 per cent, and
in the Southwestern Division "a per
cent. But Wales has the merely NOM
inal decrease of o. per cent, and the
Northwestern Division only 90 per
cent. the West Midland an increase
of OIL per cent, and Yorkshire an in
crease of 2.l per cent. The Northern
Division shows decrease of 0.S per
cent.-LondOn Times.
