Investigation has resulted in the iEforma-
tion that number of the poor houses Of
New York are filled with able-bodied tramps
This is no new thing. The majority of the
poor houses and jails of Pennsylvania are in
habited by the same class of vagabonds, who
have made it a system to find shelterin such
institutions. The condition is one which
grows out of this system OF keeping paupers
and criminals in idleness. There is false
notion that working criminals in county
Jail is an insult, and an injury to the honest
labor, encroaching ON il in competition. This
is mistake, in that no labor which is made
supporting is an injury to any industry.
The criminal who, while undergoing pun
ishment, is not productive, and is consum-
er at the expense of the community, is an
injury to every class of labor, burden
which ought not to be imposed Oh any pco-
pic. The condition in the New York jails

The contents of the North 1mcHicni Re
rie,r for March must win the attention of all
by the timeliness of the topics discussed.
First, We have a thoughtful and moderate
article by Bishop Coke on Theology in the
Public Schools" The author would stern
ly exclude from the schoolroom all sectari-
an dognas whether Papist or Protestant,
but he insists on the retention of the Bible,
first because that book Is the prin-
cipal fountain of our English speech, and
secondly because it is really the base of our
social system. The second article is by Cap
tain Eads, who endeavors to show the prac-
tieability of his ship-railway, its advantag-
es over ali canal schemes, and why the
United States can without risk guarantee
the payment Of G-per-cent. interest on S50,-
o0oO 600 OF the capital stock OF the proposed
company. Judge III. H. Chalmers, writing
on the Effects of Negro Suffrage" bespeaks
for the Southern States, while engaged with
the solution Of the great problem that has
been forced upon them, the sympathy and
counsel of the North. The other articles
are THE Free-School SYSTEM by John ID.
Philbrick, being reply to the recent stric-
tures Of Mr. Richard Grant White on the
public schools Theological Charlantism,"
by Mr. John Fiske whose typical theological
charlatan is Mr.. Joseph Cook and, finally,
a review of some recent publications in
Physics, by Prof. A. w. Wright.
