Wheat is put down at $1; Kye, Corn and Buckwheat at 50 cts.; pork 5 cts.; beef 4'y, lard 10; tallow 10, and garden vegetables at a fair average price. The column containing expenses of Poor House, over and above net pro ceeds of mill and farm, as paid out exhibits $2,103 74; the last column, containing taxes collected each year, exhibits an average of $3,180 89, show ing a difference of $1,076,05: this difference is ac counted for in the consumption of beef, pork, gar den vegetables, &c., not put down In the column of expenses, not being paid out, but connted in as resources of farm and garden, in order to ascertain what the property has been paying as a separate and distinct property from the Poor House. This difference, added to the average cost of each pau per per head, as above, makes the average cost of each one per week, for the last ten years, $1 71. This includes all expenses of Poor House, embra cing Steward's salary, his family, Physician's sala ry, Directors, Clerks, <£c. From a thorough and rigid investigation of every Treasurer's and Stew ard's report, which involved an examination of ev ery single item in each one for ten years, nothing was detected but a fair and full statement of in come and outlay. Some bills wore allowed occa sionally, which looked extravagant, but they would not have been paid without checks being granted by the Directors. There is some room for econo mizing, hut the secret of so much tax and expensa is the unavoidable cost of a very large family, of say, 60 persons, (including Steward and family) to le fed and clollicd all the time; following in its train, physicians' hills, medicines, burial expenses, Clerks, Directors, Justices, making out warrants, Constable's fees for bringing paupers, Nc., <se. These latter things make up a large hill of items each year, which are not seen, but felt. The mill and farm taken together, exhibit au as tonishing result. No real estate property in the County pays like it. The mill is a source of steady income, yielding as much as most farms alone, al ter paying all its expenses, whilst the farm and garden are still more astonishing in their results It is not a grain-growing farm, but with a large meadow, and its yield of corn, with work done principally by the Steward and paupers, the net in come is large, and the garden still larger. From 2,5(H) to 3,000 beads of cabbaee, 200 and 300 doz. cucumbers are the annual yield of the garden, in cluding beets, parsnips, beans, <£c.. in proportion. The best thing about it is, the work costs nothing, or very little. It is a kind of work paupers can and will do. The above table is as near correct as it could he made from the Reports. From the mixed manner in which some are made out, it was impossible to get items separated so as to get them exactly un der the proper heading. It is suggested, hereafter, that, for ready information, and a clear exhibit of facts, the Treasurer and Steward keep their ac counts, and make out their reports showing the in come of the Mill in one column, the expenses in another, and the same with regard to the Farm and Poor House proper. They ere three separate con cerns, and the Recounts should be kept so. The varied amount of expenses in different years is accounted for from the fact that more checks were lifted in some years than others. The first three of the above ten, shows the average cost of paupers small; the next column of receipts by the Treasurer explains it in the amount of taxes re ceived, and consequently the small amount paid out. Too loose a practice has prevailed iri allowing exonerations to Collectors; a more rigid rulewould save tbo honest willing taxpayers a Jatge amount. Collectors, if allowed, get in the habit of putting everybody on the scape list who don't pay when asked; this practice has been a source of consider able burthen to tne taxpayers within ten years.— Collectors should bear in mind that no man can BEDFORD INQUIRER. plead the three hundred dollar law against taxes, I and tliis rule enforced, will leave very few in Bed- I ford County unable to contribute their mite to the support of ihe poor. The yield of 12| per cent, on the investment at original cost, may probably admit of a small de duithn, lut very little. Under no circumstances could it pit 111< w 10. The board of Commission ers appointed to si ll the property and buy another, kc., are satisfied that such a change would be use- I less and unwise. The objection to the property be- j icg or the turnpike is no objection, when it is ta ken into consideration that the wayfaring popula tion must be supported anyhow, it will not do to let them starve. The Poor House is made for the poor, and the whole people ot the County m3y as well keep them as those who live along the road; the taxpayers along the turnpike have, as it is, more than their share ol beggars. Besides this, if the Institution were eight or ten miles, or three or four miles from town, on a farm, a great many way farers would resort to it at all events, the physi cian would have to ride further, and charge more; the paupers' clothing would have to he hauled and carried to them; the Grand Jury would have to visit thtru at a big expense; a Steward and a hand or two would have to he constantly on the go to furnish supplies; the expense of several hands up on a farm; a large number of horses and cattle constantly to feed, and all the other expenses at tending a grain-growing farm with its vast amount of labor, make it, in their opinion, highly expedi ent and proper to keep what fhey now have, rather than ventureon untried experiments. An improve ment, however, should be made: a new house ought to be built for the paupers; this can be done without much outlay, and should be so arranged as to have a place or apartment exclusively for the sick, and another place separately for the way farer. These places properly attended to, and cieansed as they should be, will relieve the rest of the paupeis from suffering, and the Steward from a great deal of trouble and odium. It is to be hoped also that the Institution will hereafter lie kept from all entangling alliances with polities, and that an intelligent and good business man may be retained as Steward, so long as he be haves himself well. The business must be learned as well as everything else. An honest man, with sorao of the people's funds, could buy grain, grind it out, and supply the whole town of Bedford, in additiou to doing the grist work, this should he done. Such a use of the property would, in a short time, greatly relieve the taxpayers. Entertaining these views, after a careful exami nation of the subject, the Commissioners, believing they bad discretionary power, under the Act of Assembly, and appointment of the Court, respect fully decline carrying out the provisions of said Act, under a conviction that the people of the County, would not be benefitted thereby.
