the statistics relating to paupers in
almshouses in the United States in

against &c, 203 in 1880. OF these
40,741 were males and 32,304 fe-
males, the colored people included
in the number being 6,467. In
1880 the ratio of almshouse pau
pers to population was 1 to 75S,
and in 1890 it was ! to S57, the de-
crease being very marked, although
not as great as it should be. The
Rev. Il. Ii. Wines, VINO acted as
special agent in collecting the sta.
tistics, calls special attention TO the
fact that there has been a marked
decline in the ratio of paupers to
population in the North Atlantic
states, where the decrease has been
not only relative but absolute. OF
the G6,57S white paupers, SO, $50
are native born, 27,64S foreign
born and the birthplace of 2,274 is
unknown. The numerical order of

the Eastern Shore road out right
