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.” SPECIAL NOTICES. GEORGIA COMMANDERY, NO. 1, K. T.
