Whitchurch Council. Poor Laws. applipauts for , the sure~ CHARITY. Whitchurch, Feb. 30, 1867. But apart from pecuniary considera- tions, motives of humanity should im- pel us to action ; is there no duty re- quired for the poor unfortunates in our midst ? It must be unpleasant and lacer- atng to their feelings, to be thrust on the cold uncertain charity of the world They are at present tossed about on so- ciety; how much exposure and misery is caused. We see the blind and lame wandering from house to house, how often is thedoor of charity shut upon them and they are left to exposure and want! Should they not be kept in a. more respect- able and honourable manner. Should not our indigent have a home, and one in which those who are able ,to support themselves can have the satisfaction of‘ doing-so, and of not being burdens on‘ the public. ‘ He states there; are? “improvident young men in our County Council, inâ€" heriting fortunes from their parents.and thus rush thoughtlessly into this Poor House speculation. He afterwards wishes these young men to wait for further light on the subject. “ Ratepay- cr" has certainly a high opinion of the talent, economy, and honesty of our County Council. He lectures them as extravagant young men, censures them for seeking information through a comâ€" mittee, and then wishes them to wait for further lightl He defies any one to prove the poor can be more cheaply supported by a county poor house, than at present. When we consider ,how much productive labour would be gain- ed by the county, there might be even a. pecuniary gain. There are many who, at a proper employment, would support themselves; bet that employment they cannot find. In a house of industry things would be different. There are others who speculate on the public, they get more than a livelihood, some money is boarded up; and alas, how much is' spent in drink, there is every chance to impose on the public; we do not know who are the real indigent. “ Ratepayer” rushes to make the assertion that “everything done for the publie costs about three times what it ought." \Ve are surely a corrupt generâ€" ation. I suppose he meant to insinuate our descendants may be less speculative and build houses of Industry more cheap- ly. A house of parliament being ex- pensive is not to prove that a house of Industry .would be the same. There is little fear of political jobbery in the latter case. ‘ “ Ratcpayer” asks “ is- it not time enough for us to shoulder the ’brudens of the old countries with their poor rates ?” I hope and expect we will never “shoulder the burdens of the old countries ” We will have burdens of our own to bear, and, no doubt, will be cheerfully borne. “ Ratepayer" does not surely wish to reflect on the wisdom of such rates. If the time for action has arrivedâ€"if a duty is required to be done, will we be deterred by threats of old country burdens? “ Ratepayer" says “ let other Counties try it first.” That is, let others leadâ€" let us lag behind, and if it is a paying institution let us gallantly follow. But let not the County of York presume to intrvvduce any innovation. Let its wealth and intelligence never embark in any en~ terprise for fear of loss; but be content to follow Where others lead. This shows a true spirit of progress. If every one would leave action to others, where would there be progress ? Society would he at a. stand-still. It is evident, from the heading of' “ Ratepayer’s” communication,he eonsid- ers the County of York is already in the “frying pan,” and that the establishment of a House of Industry would be a leap into the fire ;‘ it. is strange such a bad state of things has remained so long un‘ known. But this is a world of wonders,‘ and geniuses are not born every day. “ Ratepayer" beseeehes the county Council to take a. little time to consider this Poor House afl‘air,â€"a little thought would convince him this is what they in- tend to do.~A notice, for the appoint- ment of a committee, shows no unneces- sary haste. There may be a long time for consideration betwuen such a notice and the final establishment of such a scheme . - Alarmed by such active proceedings, 3. “ Ratepayer" rushes into print cen- sures the council for its haste, and warns us of financial ruin. A notice of motion for' the appointment of a com- mittee looked ominous, a dire step was taken, and it was full time the note of alarm was sounded. Sinâ€"By consulting the. minutes of; the proceedings of the County of York, at its first meeting for this year, I ob- serve a notice of motion was given “ for the appointment of a committee to report to the council as to the necessity of es- tablishing a. house of Industry and Industrial farm, to be located in some part of York.” The House of Refuge and In- duatrial Farm.

The attempt to hire a person to com- mit an nnwarrantable assault on an un- Ofl'ending citizen, and offering a promis- sory note, hearing date Newmarket, Oct. 7th, 1863, for the sum of £2 59 (18%, asa consideration for committing the act would seem to fix the fact beyond dispute ;nor is the lapse of time to be taken into account, when judging of the matter, unless it could be shown (which I am confident it cannot), that his con- duct has since improved; hence the ne- cessity for arresting Mosier, as I said before, to prevent his giving testimony; with an affected air of su eriority your correspondent, whom I tago to be Mr. The next to whichI would refer, is contained in his of the 12th instant, wherein he asserts that McMaster and Dr. Hunter procured the arrest of , Mosier, and then went his bail. That they went his bail, I will not deny ; but that they procured. his arrest, I assert, Without the slightest fear of successful contradiction, it to be one ofthe most malicious and willfully false concocted statements that could possibly eminate from the hand of man. The first and only suspicions that, to my knowledge, were ever cast against Mosier, were made by persons manifestly in the interest of Mr. Boultbee,and his supporters; made, in my opinion, with the full knowledge that theyqeould not be substantiated or even a coloring of support given to them ; but notwithstanding those suspicions, so , erroneously cast, they must be followed 1 by arrest, and for what ? why, to prevent him from giving evidence, which can be mere readily explained by reference to another statement made in his first letter, above alluded to, viz 1â€"" That before “the Report was printed the thinking “portion of the community were pretty “well satisfied that neither Boultbee nor “ his supporters had anything to do with “ the matter.” Rather suggestive phra- seology. I admit,it was before the pub- ‘ lication of the report that the public were apparently so well satisfied: not‘ after,â€"from which I should infer, that since of the publication of said report that matters were not so favorable,which wouid seem to suggest a query. Was it the Report, which displayed an unusual amount of white-washing, that unsettled the public mind '2 Or was it that cer- tain information has since been procured, under afiidavit, connecting Alfred Boultbee and others of his supporters, with the contemptably mean and das- tardly act of conspiring to have a certain law'yer, formerly of this place, mal- treated, for no other reason than that he was not on favorable terms of intimacy with our late Reeve. If this be true, and it IS alleged it can be supported by by two aflidavits, one of which I have seen, I ask what guaranty have we that a. similar course was not determined and acted upon in the case of the doctor ? for assuredly if the doctor’s most earnest supporters can be made the subjects of such grave suspicions, I see nothing wrong in suspecting his avowed oppon- ents,- especially when their previous con- duct is characteristic of such rowdyism. Judging Irom the rapidity with which your correspondent can concoct and put into circulation unfounded statements, ’your readers can form some idea of the nature of the task before me, 13 e, if I keep pace with him in their refutation ; I may therefore be excused if I fail to notice matters of minorimportanee for the purpose of attending to those which. form the greatest objections and portray the most dishonesty in dealing with the sub- ject under consideration. The first statement to which I would allude is contained in his letter of the 8th, whereâ€" in he asserts that Dr. Hunter attempted to get up a white-washing committee ; and in dealing with this statement allow me to say that I was present in the council room when Dr. Hunter asked tbr a committee of three for an investiga- tion, which was very reluctantly grant- ‘ed, two were selected by the council. the ‘ Dr? selecting the third, which he did 1 from the ranks of his bitterest opponents; and be it remembered that the council elected,were also his opponents,which was abundantly manifested in the restrictive conditions which they sought to impose, makingr it one of the express conditions of voting for the committee, that it should be gone on with at once, knewâ€" ,ing well,as they did, that the very next morning the Dr must leave to attend the lCounty Council; now, what chance of ‘White washing was there, with a oom- Inittee thus chosen, to say nothing of the character and standing of the committee, it being composed of'men entirely above such truckling as is here hinted at; such statements, serve as a convincing proof to my mind that he knew nothing what- ever of the facts of the case, or else he wrlfully prevcrtcd the truth,to serve his own purpose. Your readers may rest assured that no attempt at whiteâ€"wash ing can be shown, unless it exists in the brain of your illustrious correspondent,1 and I leave this part of his epistle, with 3 the kindly advice to him that if the malady, under which he apparently la‘ l bours, fails to take a favourable turn,‘ to yield strict obedience to the convic- tions of duty and hoist his shingle, pho- tographed from the negative of a pail, a little lime, and a long handled brush.

Earl Derby. the first Lord of the Treasury, says olficrally the alarm has passed. All the peasants are loyal. The Government will treat the prisoners justlv, and if need be, severely. The Irish Secretary, Lord Nazis, says that no new rising of the Foninns is apprehended. There were only 1'20 en- gaged in the late revolt. Notwithstanding these denials the Government is still sending troops to Ireland. The Lwncers Guards have received orders to depart im mediately. Lennon, Feb. 18, eveningâ€"tho cause of the Fenian outbreak in the south of lreland is yet buried in obscurity, through the tele- graph lines which run through the dis- =alien-ted district are again rworlcing, and communication has been restored. Some say that it was caused by the arrest of the American officer Capt. Moriarty, while other say that his prompt arrest tn‘evented a general rising ofthe Irish. The British Government bad news of the aiTair early on the 12th instant. An upper servant in the household of the Earl ot‘ Kenmare lttlti received two anonymous untes. stating that a rising; was planned in Killarney. and that the leader would reach Killarnev from Caberciveen that night. Constables were immediately sent to inter- cept him. They meet a wagqon, on which r they found Moriarty, whom they took into custody and upon searchingr his person found letters confirming the assertion in the anonymous notes. A courier named Duggan was sent to Caherciveen to warn the police. A party of rebels caught thim while on his way and deitmnded his ldespatehesuvhieh he refused to give up, and ‘attempted to esear‘e. Thev tired unon him and he was badly wounded. As far as is (nown at present. he is the only nersnn who ilHIS been hurt. The police of Cahereivreu I 'got. news of the trouble by other messen'rers ‘ and from several spies among the Fenians. They were strengthened by a detaohment from the l‘lllln-“fâ€"Wal' Galdt'ator which was » lying off Valentin, and saved their station from attack. One band of Fenians, 90 in z numher,took a horse at Kell's for their lead- ‘ er O’Connor, and another band stopped the l mail on the road from Killarney to Caber- eiveen, but they did no violence to anyone. ' In fact nowhere has lite been taken or pro perty destroyed. The Fenian plan was . to attack Killarney, capture the place and then march to Cork, but the immediate des- pateh oftroops from Cork to Killnrnny, by Gen. Bates,and the eeleritv of Col.IIors- ford’s movements, defeated the whole plot ‘ and caused the insurgent band to disperse. The horse of a Fenian Courier was caught by the troops, a couple of swords were picked np,but no men have been captured.
