The very recognition, however, Of 80 many evils is in itself an
evidence that they are not so dangerous nor so pernicious as they

imperfection can provide them.
There is no other city in the world where public and private
funds are SO literally granted for the advancement Of the welfare of
the weak as in New York. Here, at least, We do not need any aid
