Pauremear AND VAGUANTS.—That the township of Grey contains a number of poor who claim public: attention is evi- deut frow personal knowledge. That the Council of Grey supports its own poor is an honorable foot. That tho presence of those pour end the charitableness of the Council calla forth two distinct actions in this matter is certain, viz., the levy- ing of a poor rate tax by the Souocil and the lawful payment of the same by the electors of Grey. Now this motion of the Council and the people is as it should be, and all other townships should do the same. But, if on the other hand all other townships do as Grey does, why is it that our people have forced on their charity paupers and vagrants from sur- rounding townships ? Why is it that molly farmers should be bound to house and bed disreputable and vermin cover. ed. vagrants, who oome in with ovary show of right, being travellers of the tramp kind, and next thing to demand your hospitality for the night ? Why should wu be posted with these vagrants who olefin to come from the vioinity of Toronto, in search of work ? as if no work meld be got between here and there, and when offered a job on con- dition of which they are to got shelter they shoulder their traps and clear, when only a minute before they wore la - mooting about the storminess of the night and the fatigue of their bodies brought on by overwork? In answer to these questions 1 would say that we who support our 0000 poor are imposed ou and unjustly so when the above einem. stanthe occur and they do occur, and that very often. As an example some twenty tramps have °Riled at or passed near Robt. Elliott's during the past nine or ton menthe. I believe in bestowing charity on deserving persons end X also believe that it is possible to entertain angels unawares, but no ono ever oxpeots to see or even hear tell of such visitants coming with a train of attendants of the vermin class. Only those who have been put to the ineonvenienee of bedding such oharacters osn form any Judi idea of the trouble to which they aro pet, and it is the women who have to suffer in these drama:edemas. I venture to say that is good halt day of haul work will no more thamstraighten things to say nothing of the dieeomforturo of doing such work. Its wrong to have our oh:teens exposed te such vagrants and it seem to be eon- trary to our constitution to allow de - °aptly° ohmmeters, for such they are, to go eauntering around the country with no other object 111 View, than to gain livelihood by the charity of others, Wherein lies the remedy ? Surely not in housiug Siam with the best of care and treatment as is the usual autism ? Yes, house them up, but let that house be O Poor House, What the 000007 08 iltiron wants is 09000 honee, and what Iluron WILMS, it good memy more oonnties want. A. poor 'tense would prove tho moans of reforming many of the vicioue oharacters who loiter about the ooentry, at any rate they would get diet:nod, A. poor house would have the very desirable offeot of making tho tromps strangers to oto' county. Waterloo County hits a poor house of long standing and the citizens are not bothered with tramps, They shun it aSn great enemy becalm every vagrant found within the county is at onto arrested and soot to the poor house.
