Here is all that Mr.. BArARD said on that

upon this subject, respecting the illustrations

and cover the entire field of taxation, and
through the agency of the Federal Govern
ment raise all the money tn,
States may need for their loca
purposes. But it does not stop there
Such a system is gross invasion, con
fusion of ideas an overthrow of every in
tent Of this supreme law of the land. Blu
it goes further; it declares, whether the Fed

the State Government shall need it or not!

The reasons why the poor are always with
Us i Be might worth while to inquire into
much more carefully and systematically
than has yet been done. In general the
caeses of poverty in the United States at
least are susceptible Of being determined,
yet there is in fact very little definite knowl-
edge on this important subject. The exec
utiye committee Of the Associated Charities
of Boston have been at the trouble Of col
Letting the statistics in regard to the cases
brought under their notice. These they
have given to the public in an elaborate re-
port. Four principal causes are given, which
cover all but very small percentage of'he
total number of instances brought under
The sOciety's notice. They are intemper-
anee, ignorance, laziness and pride.
Nine-tenths of all the poverty was found
to be owing todrunkenness, leaving the 9TH
er tenth to bediyided among the other causes.
Only very small percentage ofreal want was
found to be due to illness or bad luck, no.
withstanding these two causes get the credit
of great deal of the misery in the world.
What was found to be true in Boston would
doubtless be found to be true the country
over if the same care was takeu to gather
the statistics and snslyze the causes.
The reader viii say that there is nothing
new in this statement and that everybody
knew these facts before. In general way
this is true, and yet the presentation of the
fact and figure is advisable whenever and
wherever possible. The charitable associ-
atoms in this city and the country over
could do no better work than to collect sta
tis6stics on this subject, and publish them,
too. Preachers and teachers should i'm
press them and reiterate them before their
audiences and pupils.
1t has become the fashion of late 10 sheer
at the Poor Richard idea of insisting upon
the principles Of economy, temperance and
industry in training the young, and henc,
the increasing tide of paupers and mendi
cants. The line upon line method of in
sitting proper knowledge into the public
mind is old-faShioued but it is the only
method that is good for anything, after all.

Figures for Dir. Blaine.
Boston Gloss.

If newspaper influence counts for any
thing. Mr.. Blaine will have hard work to
,urrv the State Of New York
The leading papers Of the city Of New
York are almost unanimously against him
and are hurting their strongest arguments
at the Republican ticket
We presume that the combined circula,
ton of the Sun, Herald, World, News, Tel.
egram, Times, Post, Graphic, Star and
Truth amounts to 650,00n copies per
day. These papers have at least 3,O00,-
900 of readers in New York State and out
oft.
And in this list we do not include tn,
German and the religious newspapers, no.
Harper's Weekly and Puck, which are agains
Mr. Blaine.
On the other hand we have the Tribune,
the Mail and Express and the Commercial
Advertiser, with combined circulation Of
so, 1000 to $4,000, fighting for Jim and
Jack to the best Of their ability.
We commend these figures to Mr.. Blaine
careful consideration. II will also be well
for him and his friends to remember that
the influence of several of the newspapers
which are now against him have usually
been in favor of the Republican ticket.

They Met n Cold Wave.

The enthusiastic gentlemen who met here
yesterday, ell route for Augusta to notify
Mr.. Blaine of his nomination. had their ar
dor chilled By the failure Of the Boston Re
pubGcans to welcome them aud speed them
on their political mission. They should not
lay this to any lack Of hospitality on the
part Of our citizens, for this was not the
cause of the neglect. Boston Republicans,
who have heretofore been foremost in such
eiyilities and attentions have no idea of
aiding in the election of Mr. Blaine, and
viii not participate in any movement for
that purpose. But it may be pertinently
asked. Where was the Republican State
Committee on that occasion. The Blaine
committee needed all the comfort they could
obtain; with the otherwise chilly surround
ings. They departed for their Mecca with
sOrrowful hearts.
