Our very able Rictnnond correspon­ dent took up the cudgel last week against tlie new county poor house, which was voted '9 he built at th* last meeting of tlie Board of Supervisors. Now we hitve neither the ti«qe, $pa<% nor inclination to go Into any lengthy controversy on tl^a question, and. as It has been definitely decided beyond re­ traction to build such an institution, it will in time prove for Itself whether it was a wise action or not. But our correspondent truly says thefe are two sid«$ tq the Question, bt|t as We see It he has presented bqt one tide and that the mq^t extreme. Now it has been our fqrtq:{e to live in a county t|^at took care of their poor and insane in just the manner the Board propose to do iti this county, and we have not the least particle of doubt but what it will prove here as it did there, not only cheaper for the county, but that our poor and insane will be better taken care or than they could bp in any other way. Thft cfy that such institutions are sites, for great abuses is hutcbug. True, th« State Board and eyen Ben Butler l,q Massachusetts, may have found cases as bad as the one eur correspondent speaks of, but they are the exception, not the rule. Does any one for a mo­ ment tltiglt ti|i>t the Board qf Super- Visors qf McHenry County, after such an institution has been built, would permit "the congregating together In one institution of yqijng and old, male and female, insane and idiotic;" etc., as pictured? admit this would be charge that our Board was com­ posed of brutes, not men. The fact is no institution or this kind cau be found fu the cqtintry where such a state of things is allowed oreyen thought of. Each have thoir ojvp separate apart­ ments and are takqn care ot as theif several needs demand. That inhuman keepers are sometime* found Is un­ doubtedly true, but 41 ere said before, they «£re t.l|e exception ^nd not the FHle, and fhepld. (hey n» doubt would be, ftirued out af soon af feutid. Our correspondent says "when it comes to the cost ol' keeping the poor, an alms-house will be an expensive whistlp." Here we again disagree with h|tn. Will any one pretend to say (Juu a farm of 2Q0 aere*> |i|ii and taken pare of as it should be, w il| qpt do anything towards support)iig the poor who may be taken care of there, and lifat tiielf maintainance V«|| fall entirely upon the tax payers ot the comity ? In other words, is there nothing to be made from a farm or 200 acres, and must a man who persists in workii) * it be sup­ ported by his frjepd#? j'hat m^at be tlie conclusion if w# ad 11 It that ft costs tlie tax payers ^ist iff much |f thefg were -ten inmates as If there prepre fifty. The facts are, as the records will show, a large part, and in many cases the whole cost of supporting the county poor is made from the farm. And then again, after the farm Is bought and buildings built, every town Is at liberty to tike care ot her own poor If she choose*, and if she dot* *0 will not be taxed for those taken care qf at the county bouse. I'here are many other pofift* which mfght JDcntiqn, but refrain. We have said ll)i« much because we be- liey# it is i)qt fair to qya isolated cases to prejudice the people agalpst wjiat has proved In no many cases peal b.eneflt to the unfortunate qf our land, and alPO because we beliejre ii; the end it will b» money in the pqwk^tf of tax payers qf the county. t|>,« T^xes !

Why will not some politic!su of influ­ ence secure some remedy lor such ,<?ase* --some way by which such "countless thousands" might he drawn frei^ the treasury and expended for the benefit of suffering under the clrcnmstances herein related. Why not mako so|-^ dlers' homes homo In reality as well as in name. "If lie comes he will bo Obliged to sleep In one of the out- bouses." He can do as we|l as ^hat an'y- liere. It Is a disgraceful boast--8300,- 000.000 In our treasury, ab|e statesnieu contending what sha|l bo done wjtli it, and tlie poor so|diejr sleeping in aii out-lieuse with the mercery forty de­ grees below ssjro.
