The public lethargy which for so long a time was our-res ■ ::? proacb, has passed off, and our people, are now " wide'awake and not likely to slumber again; that others may win the race. And it has not been to ' those measures which in this fleeting life yield - their reward; that this commendable spirit has , been directed.

A Cmivenrinn ol Delegate?), clioson by Ilia dis tnclG or Allcghnny county) wns held at the Court- House, in the City or Piuaborgli, on. the 6th day of February, 1851, for the purpose of consulung upon the propriety or obtaining an Act of the Legislature, Tor the establishment ol a Poor House and Farm, for the use and employment of the Poor of the Bop. ouaha and townships of. said-county. ThatOpnvcti liej,r W i,i, great unanimity,;pasted {resolutions f-i --vorahlo to th'o establishment of a Hmiae of Employ ment, and appointed the undersigned a committee to addreßs the citizens of the county upon the sulk ioct. Jo discharge of that duty, wo beg loavo to lay before you .the' following facts and reasons, showing the great utility or a House of Employment, and earnestly call you' attention to tho same. Ihe shortness of time, allowed, tho committee, by the near approach of the adjournment p| the, Legisla, tore, has prevented them from receiving as full sta tistics as could have been obtained by further time . from tho neighboring counties, which provide lor their.Poorby the means contemplated 10 this coun. ty, showing tho result of tlieir experience since he establishment of Poor Houses therein.,: From the county of Washington, however, the only one yet heard from, we have obtained must .satisfactory information. Tho obliging Steward ,of thoAVaah. ington Poor Houso, under dato ofthe:6lh mat, .writes h» follows: . , “ The average cost (or each pauper for a period of 19 yeara, is about 80 cents per week. This in cludes Juslicea’ and Constables’ Ices,clothing, board* ing, lodging, medical aliefdancc, and the intereat of money invested for farm and The year before entering upon the Stewardship of the Inati* lution, rvisited the different townships to the coun ty, . and from-' the best sources of information to which' I. had acceas/I learned that itcostthe county about nine thousand dollar* per annum for the ten year* previously,on the oM. sytteJn>\ Since then, al though there has been an in&iosetfpwpertm, ihc average estimate; of expenditure has been $4*001); or just one half what H was under the old plan.— The present plan ha* greatly lessened the expends turey while it has at the same tithe unquestionably augmented largely the 'coinforls of the unfortunate objects of the public charity; - Tho Poor House in Washington county was in*, corporalcd in 1830, fince which time the plan hat ! realized the expectation, of its friends, as the above extract wilt show; Fayette coanty is.similarly pro**, vided, and some years the poor house maintains itself. In Dauphin and Lancaster counties the houses of employment arc frequently sources of revenue : and profit to the' respective counties. If -each are the results in .those; counties, may wcnot anticipate far more favorabio ones in Allegheny—a county offerings superior market for the sale of the products of the farm and house of employment. It will surprise many, afterseeiog these facts, that this coonty should be so far behind her neighbors in ] this respect. That the present system ol supporting:; the poor, by separate districts, by rendering a toavy > tax necessary, is oppressive, must be apparent to overy taxpayer. \Ve can make itmore snin actual figures. From the heat information derived, it apw pears that the cost of supporting the poor in the ooghs and townships of this county, is about twenty thousand dollars per annum. When they are board: ed Vn any comfort, tho cost is about two dollars and a half per week for each pauper; and in cases of •ickoesa or helplessness, often coils five dollars per wceki To this must be added clothing, thn sums paid physicians and overseers, and justices* feesr— The number of boroughs and townships in the county i* 38. Tho amount paid annually, by-cacb district, to the overseers, is certainly set down low enough at $75, which makes $2,860 in the county. The amount paid physicians is at least equal to that paid the overseers. These sums added make $5,700, from-which deduct the salary of a physician at this Poor Houto, day $7OO, and there will be a sating of $5,000 per annum to the county for these two items —because a House of Employment would abolish the office of overseer and tender the services of physician to the poor in the several districts unne cessary. This sum, in four years, would bo more' than sufficient to purchases farm and erect a Poor House Tor the whole county. Besides, then the pro* fits of produce, and work of the farm, &c.,'vnald unquestionably go far towards meeting the current expenses of the institution. The expense will be further reduced by the tact that there will bn fewer poor to support. It is known to all overseers that they are frequency Imposed, upon fry the indolent, who might procure work, and by those actually having money io their possession. This knowledge comes to the overseers after they have-expended money id the support of such per sons. Whereas, if they had a House of Employment to send them to, they would bo relieved of this claw. •After the ciliev of Pittsburgh and Allegheny' estab lished their Poor Houses, the first year, they found that tho number of paupers had decreased one third from what it hid been under the former system.— Part of these had refused to go to the Poor Houso, ami removed into the boroughs sod towoshipv. and became chargeable there; and it is now necessary, in self-defence, tf for no other reason, for the county to establish a itmUsr Hoove to protect iuelffroratbis tmmerons fur ;hc:present and prospect*, ively. ' r -' ' -5 . '•- These facta must make H apparent that theitiift policy of supporting the poor is.by means of a farm and House or Employment. But apart from tbo eco nomical view of ine subject, we think that humanity should prompt nv to change the picsonl micro.— We are bound by charity, not only to supportUhe poor, but to render them comfortable. Such is and ever baa been the purpose of the poor lawsof the State, The method bf carrying out this beneficent purpose, tlie law, at prcßentfcdelcgates to tho Ofrcr aeersof each district, To prove that this discrc liou has been abused,hod the poor made an object of traffic, la minisierto the cupidity of man, we could relate instanceaobat are a disgrace to civilisa* tirin'; Suffice Hto Bay'that in a great many districts I of this qounty . the support oT-tbo poor is given out j to the lowest bidder, who will take a particular per- ! son to board iand lodge. As -a consequence, the ; successful bidder is often ho who baa the least con- j science.- Frequently a dilapidated oulhouesor tarn . ‘is the eieepihg place nf tee pauper rn the severest i ; season. He is tasked with work when his health will nolpcrait it. aDtf a scanty subsistanco is all that can bo afforded, to allow him to he profitable. Another abuse of the present system exists in those districts, which give the pauper money.each: week to sapportliimseif. In many cases a portion of this money .is jtquandcred in purchasing intoxicating liquors, bUghtning to his soul and body, and insuring his support upon tho district until disease and doalh removes him. * -m Such ate the fruits of the present system; and, howeverattentive tho overseers may be, unless they devote their whole lime to the care of the poor, lor which no district would pay them, they cannot pre vent these abuses, The remedy is, to provide a houso !df employinenufor the joint benefit ol the townships and boroughs,-under the.management of thrcejdirectbrs.-; In it tho; sick would, be carefully JjuTowi.; industry and temperance would be.jtcquir6Uj and the objects of charily comfortably provided for, and all this at a tithe of the coat of the present plao. Petitions to the Xegialature are now in circulation, in the, coonty, for the incorporation of hbQso' of employment,; We appeal to every taxpayer to examine ioto; the economy of, the pro 'pospd plan ; and to every, philanthrophist, to aid th & scheme foramelioratiQg the condition: of the un fortunate poor. ■ r* GEO.
