Semi-Weekly Wisconsin (Newspaper) - January 22, 1870, Milwaukee, Wisconsin THK ADMISSION OF we announced tat the for admission of Virginia to representation passed the lower and to The Utter body Xk the subject after ae the bin which it and to the dis of House but adjourned coming to a vote on The rote r which the Senate was tabled was w noes The which was be the Senate provided that every mem of the legislature and every tte before entering upon of should take i oath that ha had never sworn to support Constitution of United States and forward engaged in or that the imposed upon him by the 14th had been removed by 1 the event of any person swearing falsely i this a penalty of fine and arnent was The House pro ides for the admission of Virginia to presentation without any The fact that the Senate substituted the for its own indicates that it vors unconditional and the is that the House will be con Irred would have been ell enough to impose some such tns as those contained in the Senate is doubtful if it would do any The th amendment contains sufficient guaran against trouble from the rebel id if these should not be observed by ths neither would additional though multiplied The tople of the reconstructed states will have be trusted to a considerable degree ia le matter of carrying out the work of re and if they prove false to the lain requirements of the Constitution jere is power in Congress to call them to as has been done in the cose of It is desirable that the states be as soon as consistent with peace md the security of lift and property and and if the people of the show something of a disposition to the situation and do their work faith it is but just to give them a The Virginians have so far shown a to act in good and t is but simple justice speedily to dmit their representatives to seats in Nothing will be gained by de and while thereby the of the malcontents may be provok and ground be actually lost instead of Our faith in the integrity of politicians is not and never has Kson but we think there is as good for trusting the Virginians as any I them and therefore we hope to see the Emission passed without further de Some of the reconstructed states behaved and Virginia may fol w their The people are onx UB to see the work of reconstruction com and the troublesome question out 1 Congress that more time may be had r that body to attend to the financial and interests of the THE LONDON The London correspondent of the New ork World gives a sad picture of the con ition of tue people of The story he tells is and if as it fpears to there is little cause for Eng to congratulate as they iten upon the happy state of their The writer states that there are u the twentyseven parishes of London women and children who fould starve to death were it not for the which they receive from the parochial Of this number are in and the are what are denominated outdoor poor and of these ore nd the remainder There are now more paupers than at this time last Terrible as this story the writer darkens it by the additional statement that the number mentioned does not embrace ths whole of the pauper lation of Besides this number there is another vast army of persons to a certain are dependent upon charity for but who have not made good their claims to regular relief from those in charge of the charity Think of a city containing within its lim its a pauper population of more than double the entire population of this city Yet with this sad and shocking reality staring the British Government in the millions of dollars are bestowed upon the sprigs of royalty who squander it in revels and de What the rotten royalty of England costs the government would place in comfortable circumstances the poor of or send them to the agricultural regions of this where they could maintain The poor rate tax in the various parishes of London ranges from Is to Sid per or from about to one quarter of every cues What would Americans say to such taxes No people can long continue to suffer such drain upon their resources without bo coming No wonder that business in the city is reported to be very although prices are reduced to the lowest point In this condition of the London lace there is a question for philanthropists and economists to With these facts before us we may well ask what would have been the condition of London had there not been a drain of her population to thin Vast numbers of the paupers ot that city are paupers because they can get no work to Without emigration the population would have been much than it is and work so much difficult to But there will a time whan emigration will cease to and the question of how to re lieve the poor will come home to statesmen And philanthropists with redoubled In the cane of the first step toward bettering the condition of the poor should be to decrease the expended and the to encourage industry and frugality by making it easier for poor people to ob tain a hold the secure homes of their With such laws as prevail in England there must of necessity always be very large class of the people very if not actually To be born poor there is almost equivalent to being born to of for the chances for of property are small and there are few circumstances that stim elate one to labor to that Cheap labor and low prices are not always pro motive of prosperity among the

number of buildings erected hist year was more than in any pre vious When it is considered that the greater portion of these buildings are fine stores aud elegant costing from ten to fifty thousand dollars the real magnitude of this growth of the City of Churches will be better Al though rents there are what would be con very high they are not so high as in New York hence many New Yorkers are
