ACCORDING to the official reports Of
Pennsylvania, there are no less than
twenty thousand alien paupers, let alone
those who are native born, in that State
at present, and Of tramps there, accord
ing to the reports of reliable men en-
ployed to make them, no less than
sixty thousand. Pennsylvania Is a
State largely engaged in mining and
manufacturing. But with 80 many
paupers and idlers, the assertions OF
those interested in uttering them, to the
effect that business has revived there
and that the long desired prosperity
has returned, cannot be credited,
though every body wishes it could be.
One thing is certain, and it is that if the
dawn of prosperity be visible in Penn
sylvania, clouds still obscure it in Vir-
GINA, and, 30 far as heard of, every
where else. But as Pennsylvania cast
three hundred thousand more votes
for the republican, than for the demo
cratic ticket last fall, her people should
not complain.
