AUGUSTA, O-A,:
Sunday Morning. October, 3, 1875.
The Coming Winter—What Shall Be
Done for the Poor ?
The most serious problem .now agi
tating the thinkers of the North is
how to take care of the poor, hun
dreds of thousands of whom are out of
employment and, so long as the insane
attempt at resumption of specie pay
ment continues in force, this vast
army of desperate men and women will
grow larger and larger, and more and
more terrible. Even in the day of pros
perity there were multitudes among the
“dangerous classes now, in the day
of wrath, hunger, thirst and wicked
ness, the offspring of compulsory idle
ness, are adding legions to the host of
crime. The grasshopper plague of the
West will be as nothing compared with
the tramp pestilence of the East, unless
wise and prudential measures are
adopted to alleviate a distress which
cries to man for work and bread and to
heaven for vengeance.
We have all seen in our daily experi
ence how the great struggle betweeu
principles and potatoes works the de
moralization of some of the supposed
highest types of men and women, the
well-born, dnintily bred, elaborately
educated and born to the loftiest as
pirations. In many instances, when
money and inherited comforts have dis
appeared, how frightfully, how Insidi
ously, has the spiritual principle suf
fered a melancholy eclipse! We have
seen pride turned to abjectness, culti
vation to grossness, uprightness to
chicanery, truth to lies, and the love of
honor to the companionship of shame.
It is one of the saddest things
in life to know that people who
have, whe* fortune smiled upon them,
been regarded as models of every vir
tue, descend, when the power of cash
left them, to paltry meannesses which
shock the stoutest faith in the inte
grity of human nature. If the gifted,
the aristocratic, the haughty and re
fined have resorted to acts that the
very mention of, as possibilities,
would provoke the swift shedding of
blood, how shall it be wondered at that
the lowly, the ignorant, the children of
social bans and the familiars of gaunt
poverty, even when work was plentiful,
should, when outlawed and outcast,
lose whatever confidence they had in
the Supreme Being and wreak upon that
society which has cursed them a fear
ful reprisal and a consuming maledic
tion ?
There are many men and
women, thank God, who, no
matter what cruel fate betides
them, live and die martyrs to the in
justice of a bitter world, but never
sully their souls by theft, pollution or
blasphemy. Upon such the salvation
of society itself depends—upon them
and their seed. For these the heavens
will be opened, and a place of health,
light, refreshment and everlasting re
pose granted by the Father of the Poor.
From their loins will spring the race
that must redeem the degenerate
stocks that now revel in ill-gotten
gains, but for whom, if they do not
prove genuine stewards of the Lord,
the day of retribution is coming with
a giant stride.
It is to the credit of humanity that
a minority of the wealthy recognize
these truths and are preparing to do
with their superabundance whatever
they can within the demands of
prudent charity and reason. Well
will it be, here and hereafter,
for these generous souls. The
prayers of widow, orphan and
friendless wiil ascend like incense for
them, and a blessing will return four
fold upon the chlldrori of the merciful.
It is upon the women of the land
that the season of cold and privation
must fall most pitiably. A man in
health should be able, in the South,
where land is abundant and cheap, to
keep starvation at leart from his
threshold.
For women, unfortunately, there are
fewer opportunities, and it will be the
most philanthropic deed that could en
gage the attention of the prosperous to
provide an outlet for their industry
and talent. Alluding to this subject,
the Baltimore Sun says: “The scope of
female industry has been of late so
greatly enlarged that there would
seem to be no difficulty in the way
of their working in any business
for which they are really fitted. They
have engaged successfully in storekeep
ing, in hand-sewing and on machines,
in watch factories and other mechani
cal employments. It is belived that
they would make good stenographers,
copyists, telegraph operators and
photographers, in all of which some of
the sex have made their way already.
It deserves to be noted that in France,
where girls are specially trained for
trades as boys are here, there is little
of that extreme female destitution
which is found in this country. There
is also another reason why the cry for
work and bread does not rise so fre
quently and principally from the
women of France as from those of
England and America. In France
thrift and tact in household manage
ment are well nigh universal. A late
intelligent traveler in France has sta
ted that a large portion of its popula
tion could be comfortably fed on what
is wasted in American kitchens. While
in this country, as in England, ig
norance of the art of cookery prevails,
the peasantry in Fiance are cooks
from their cradles. They waste noth
ing, throw nothing away, and are able
to make a palatable and nutritious
dinner for a large family out of a
few scraps of meat, vegetables
and herbs. In fact, we see in
our country the Sisters of the
Poor collecting from our'kitchens what
is not consumed by ourselves, and sup
plying with them the wants of the poor
for whom they care, and, we venture to
say, making the refuse from their skill
in cooking and manipulation more
pleasant to the taste and more nour
ishing than the badly-cooked dinners
of which they were the remnants. A
valuable suggestion has been made in
England, which is equally applicable to
this country, that cooking schools be
established in all parts of the kingdom,
to be presided over by competent per
sons, at which women would be able to
learn how to cook a meal, and to qual
ify themselves for marriage or domes
tic-service. It would not seem to be
beneath the dignity of our youug
American women of any condition to
learn an art which, if they are wealthy
will enable them the more intelligently
to supervise the labors of others, and,
if poor, will, help them to live economi
cally, and secure them in the last re
source such employment as will save
them from utter want.”
Luckily, in the South, we have not to
fight against a rigorous climate and
the legend “root, hog, or die,” as ap
plicable to the softer sex, has not yet be
come a fixed fact in this region. But
even here there are some objects of
tenderest commiseration, whose lives
are tragic and whose days are full of
weariness and despair. To put some
sunshine into these dark existences and
to provide hope and work for a
wretched sisterhood, who only need a
chance to strive profitably, Is the
noblest career now opened to those
who know not the pangs of hunger,
the frown of a landlord, the impor
tunity of a tradesman, and for whom,
unlike many otheis, the sky is not as
brass and the earth as iron. It is
better to leave this world stripped bare
of possessions, exhausted by acts of
mercy, than to confront the Judge as
one who had accumulated millions and
held on to them penuriously, in the re
morseless grip of death.
Repudiation. —The New York Tri
bune, the organ of Jay Gould and the
RiDg Gamblers, piously ejaculates as
follows:
The national debt was incurred in the
effort to save the life of the nation. If
these bonds had not been bought, we
would now have no national existence.
They could never have been placed except
under the pledge that interest and princi
pal would be paid in the only currency re
cognized throughout the world. The reg
ularity with which these obligations have
been thus far met, has enabled us to fund
them at a lower rate of interest. If this
miserable rascality and folly of the repu
diators had never been heard of our credit
would to-aay be as good as that of auy
other country on earth, and wo could bor
row, if desired, at the lowest rate of in
terest.
The national debt was incurred to
kill the Republic of Washington and
Jefferson. If the people of the East
and West had only known what they
know now, there would have been pre
c'ous few bonds bought or sold to aid
a lot of Abolition lunatics to ruin the
country. The Government, under Rad
ical rule, repudiated its own money at
the Custom Houses, and as the Repub
licans made the “ rag baby,” they shall
have their dose of it before they get
through.
Wilson. —Vice-President Wilson is
thus quoted : “The South has suffered
from mismanagement and the destruc
tive results of the war, and was im
peded in her efforts to recuperate by
many adverse circumstances. But she
will come up. With her well known
natural advantages it is impossible for
her to remain in her ‘present paralyzed
condition. She will rise from her ashes
with renewed vigor and strength. My
efforts for her success shall not be
wanting.”
The South has suffered from Wil
son & Go’s, mismanagement beyond ex
pression. Her recuperation has been
in spite of all his efforts to keep her in
the dust. No Southern State has pros
pered until the Wilsonian theory had
been virtually destroyed. The South
will rise again, because Wilson’s war
against the laws of God and Nature is
ending disastrously to him and his fol
lowers. Much obliged to Mr. Wilson,
but we can dispense with his patron
age and would not give a copper for
his superfluous offer of assistance.
Let him look to his own side of the
line and to himself. He and his will
need sympathy and help before long.
Moody and Sankey.—lf the great
evangelists do not have a care they
will suffer the fate of Aristides. We
read that while the clergymen of Chi
cago were discussing this question last
week, the Rev. Wm. Alvin Bartlett
suddenly got up and said with vim :
If God had been importuned one-half as
much as Moody and Sankey we should
have had a revival before this. It is Jesus
Christ we want and the power of the liv
ing God as manifested in the Holy Ghost.
The spiritual power of Christ is in the
churches, and nowhere else. The church’s
work only makes tolerable, and even possi
ble. outside work. The English churches
have been dead for a thousand years, and
when one of the corpses wags its tail they
think a great revival is in progress. I have
been there myself and know how it is. Let
us come together, lay down our egos and
our big I’s and lay ourselves down and
pray for the descent of the Holy Ghost.
Evidently, Mr. Bartlett thinks the
multitude may worship the preacher
and think they are worshiping God.
Marriage.— Madame Roland defines
marriage as an institution in which one
person undertakes to provide happiness
for two. Lady Mary Wortley Mon
tague declared that whether you mar
ried or not you were bound to regret
it. When LaFayette visited this coun
try he was, of course, introduced to a
vast number of people. He accosted
them in this fashion: “Married man,
Mr. Smith ?” “ No, sir !” thundered
Smith. “ Happy man, Mr. Smith !” re
sponded the Marquis. “ Married man,
Mr. -Jones?” “Yes, sir,” plaintively
answered Jones. “Happy man, Mr.
Jones 1” quoth LaFayette. The bach
elors and Benedicks were left to draw
their own conclusions ; and we would
not have it otherwise for a wilderness
of diamonds.
Specie Resumption. —The New York
Mercury shows how rapidly prepara
tions are being made to change “rags”
for coin, thus : “Oh the 16th of Jan
uary, 1875—two days before Congress
has passed the so-called : Specie Re
sumption Act’—the banks of New York
held in their vaults $33,222,100 in specie.
Within a month, thereafter the supply
of ‘metallic money’ in the banks de
creased to $15,162,400. On the 18th of
the present month it was but $7,386,-
200, and yesterday only $7,269,200. That
is the way we are coming nearer to
specie payments through contraction
i even of specie itself.”
