A bold proposal indeed from Mr. Conda.<p>It is a melancholy object to those who walk through this great city, or travel in the country, when they see the streets, the roads, and cabin doors, crowded with beggars, all in rags and importuning every passenger for an alms. These beggars, instead of being able to work for their honest livelihood, are forced to employ all their time in strolling to beg sustenance for their helpless infants: who as they grow up also turn thieves for want of work.<p>I think it is agreed by all parties that this is, in the present deplorable state of the country, a very great additional grievance; and, therefore, whoever could find out a fair, cheap, and easy method of making these beggars sound, useful members of society, would deserve so well of the public as to have his statue set up for a preserver of the nation.
