THAT the evil of poverty may be
traced to unnatural conditions has
been forced upon the consciousness OF
every student OF social conditions.
That the force is not to be met by
charity is well established But that
It may be overcome and society re-
ueved of its distress is as sure rs that
right will conquer wrong. Nor is
this to be done by empty appeals to
men that embrace one or another re-
ligion. satisfied with empty forms and
observances The evil comes neither
from nature nor God. and, therefore.
prayer Is not to be invoked as cure.
Human law is responsible for the ills
Of society. Human effort is to be the
weapon by which the reform is to be
accomplished Not by an upheaval
that shall destroy society; not by a
revolution that shan remove the good
already accomplished. but rather by
such logical affort to so order soeisty's
movsments that progress toward g
higher civilization may Be accomplish

q still larger share of his fondness for

that he does not know what poor

DEEPENING THE HUDSON RIVER.

At the last session of Congress, as many of
our readers are aware, a commission was APP
pointed to examine and report upon the ques-
ton of the feasibility of deepening the channel
of the Hudson River. By the terms of the act
creating it the commission is
thoroughly TO examine the distractions to navga-
ton In the Hudson River, between NewYork City and
the State dam at Troy N. " and report project and
estimate the cost Of widening and deepening said river
between New-York City and the city Of Albany, and
also between SevYOrk City and the state dam at the
city of Troy for the navigation of seagong vessels
drawing twenty feet of water and also separate eti
mate Of the expense of improving the river between
New Baltimore and tie state dam at Troy, to such an
extent as 10 secure naylgable channel twelve feet
deep at mean low tide
The commission is to give hearing to those
interested at Albany next week, and the Mayor
Of that city has invited prominent business men
in all parts of the State to attend it. 1t is
likely that the attendance will be large and that
the question will be fully discussed in all its
bearings. Practically speaking, the PROPOSE
ton to deepen the channel of the Hudson is
merely part OF the proposition to improve the
canals. For obviously, it is comparatively USE
less to lengthen the locks and dig out the bot
toms Of the canals II the Hudson is not to be
placed and kept in condition effectively to
