SEVENTEENTH WARD. Mr. Oreutt’s Soup House in Seventh Street—Donations from Generous Neigh- bors. Those who question the usefulness of soup had engendered. This feeling had growa so strong ‘on the part of the poor that, it is said, plans were | actually concocted to burn and pillage the city. Weeks of idleness alter the panic, aud empty lard- ers and stomachs on every hand, heightened this | fever and increased this anger of the masses. Hun- ger began to make these men, usually 80 indus- | trious and orderly, furious. They held meeungs and cried out for work or bread, Many who read of these assemblages over their coffee at breakfast or wine at dinner laughed and said:—“It is al Dosh and bombast; no one need go hungry in New York, Why, there’s the Department of Charities! | (where a {amily 1s to be provided with @ dollar @ week) why don’t they go there?” } The HERALD undertook to find the truth of this matter, and it has done so, It has sounded some | @f the depths of this misery, and IT HAS PUBLISHED PACTS ‘which get the great popular ieart throbbing with pity, The generous hearts of our people grew big ‘with each pulsation. The most cultivated, beauti- ful and wealthy ladies of the city have vied with | each other in their efforts to sustain and comiort | their weak and uniortunate sisters. Strong and | earnest men have divided their days between | ‘their business and the poor. And men who were fierce with rage and cursed the rich when hunger | urged, now fallon their knees and bless the kind | hearts and hands that have saved them, THE DEPTHS OF DESPAIR.

The “Albion” Society—An Appeal to Englishmen to Relieve Such Cases as Richard Stoaks. To THE Epiror OF THE HERALD:— The case of Richard Stoaka, an Englishman, named in your issue of March 1, is indeed sad, and is but one case among the many. And beyond charitable to relieve the present distress in this city and throughout the country. Among the many socteties is the Albion Soctety for English- men in this country, which was organized in November last, with officers who devote their time and services ireely for their distressed country- men. The objects in brief are:—First, mutual as- sociation and protection; second, a benevolent branch to assist the deserving in distress, and third, a bureau for information and assistance in procuring employment and to open up @ communication between employers of labor and deserving Englishmen who are iz to toil faithfully for an honest livelihood. ‘AS a rule the English who come to these shores do not come to beg, and their reverses and trials are borne with silence and patience, and but little coming to the surface. Since the society has been formed many letters have been received from the distressed English, both tn and out of this city, which have been indeed piteous to listen to, and scarcely a day passes but appeals are made for food, clothing, &c., &c. Now, there are some 40,000 or 50,000 English residents in this eek & and will they not come forward with their English hearts and hands and aid their distressed coun- trymen and women in this their time of need? As @ society we appeal earnestly to the opulent and success(ul English to come forward with their help to aid this young Dut much needed organization. Tue society will only be too giad to furnish par- | ticulars and invite eM! from all and any who will do so. . H. CAHILL, M. D., No. 386 Broome street, New York, MarcH 3, 1874. York Poor in the Southern States. One cannot too much admire the generosity ex- hibited towards the poor of this city in their pres- | ent exceptionable distress, whereby so much has been done by their charitable neighbors to alle- | viate their sufferings. Of course the scope of this charity lies within the narrowest limits—that is to say, it 1s immediate, and intended only to supply a dire necessity effectually on the spot, at once, without special reference to the future. This hav- a public duty to devise if possible a permanent cure for so gigantic an evil, Allow ug to make tne following suggestion:— You know, perhaps, that througn the South, as has been especially manifested of late in South Carolina, the people earnestly desire an ac- cession of white labor to render productive their vast extent of idie lands. Here are two.wants, each immediate and pressing. Cannot something be done which shall supply both at the same time by bringing these would-be employers and em- ployed togetier? To-day we stepped into one of the soup houses, where one day recently no fewer than 1,010 persons, of whom 695 were males, had received relief. We put the question, “Would | you like to go South?” to the crowd of miserables Whom we there saw, and a very large number answered ‘Yes.’ If would want some effective agency in the different States and in this city to carry Out the idea, and the means of transporta- tion are wanted. Will any one volunteer to help in any way to do this thing, provided really good homes and permanent employment aré guar- anteed? If so we would like to hear irom them. PUBLISHERS “THE SOUTH."

To THe EprroR oF THE HERALD:— Those who read Sunday's HenaLp must have been struck with the forcible remarks of “J, M.’ | on “Model Farms." He hit the right nail on the | head, Will you please allow me to follow it up with @ further suggestion? Our wortny and | wealthy fellow citizen, Mr. A. T. Stewart, owns some 5,000 or 6,000 acres of good fat prairie land called Hempstead Plains, only fifteen miles from the City Hall, on Long Isiand, which he purenasea some five years ago for the purpose, as [ was ine formed, of tarning it to some charitable account, to using itin a way to ina \hose who are disposed to heip themselves. He proposed balidin; a very large number of pretty cottages ant letting them, at @ very low figure, to respectavie | artisans, mechanics and clerks of mall means, iD order that they might get mto ahealthy locality With their families, and away from the contami- nating influences Of Vicious assoclations and over- crowded tenement houses, This scheme was in- trusted to his friend, Mr. John Kellum, but the sudden and untimely death o1 that gentleman ap- peared to put a temporary stop to active opera tions around Garden Uity. Will not Mr. Stewart give 2,000 to 3,000 acres of this tract, orthe use of it, lor the purpose that “J, M.” snggests—for a model farm—where the vast crowds of men and women in the city, who are not mployment, to profit and health.

The Proposed Amendments to the Char- ter and Bylaws—The Merchants Greatly Interested and Opposed to Changes An Emphatic “No” to the Board of Managers. A special meeting of the members of the Produce Exchange was held yesterday afternoon to con- sider several proposed amendments to ite charter | and bylaws, adopted by the Board of Managers February 12 and 17, There was a very large at- tendance, Mr. Franklin Edson in the chair. To say that the result of ve meeting was a Waterloo de- feat for the management is putting it quite mildly, as all the proposed changes and additions, with but two exceptions and those unimportant, were sig- nally defeated, CHARTER. First brought up for consideration was the chang- inz of section 2 of the charter by the addition ot the following :— The twelve managers who shall be elected at the next election after the passage of this act shall. immediatel: after their election, proceed to divide themselves by 10 the first of which shall hold ofice for the period of one year, and the second for the period Of (Wo years respectively; and after the aforesaid eloc- tion’ oly six managers’ shall be elected each year, to serve jor & period of two years. This was lost by @ large majority, whichno doubt, at thigearly stage of the proceedings, re- vealed to the management the strength of the op- position, MEMBERSHIP, Next came the question of raising the initiation fee on and after May] next, from $500 to $1,000, ‘The objections to this, and strongly advocated by several members, were substantially as iollows:— In June, 1872, the initiation fee was fixed at $300. After February, 1873, the initiation fee was Mixed at $500, and now we are called upon to raise the initiation fee to $1,000, this is asked in the e of the fact that nota single “ket for Membership has been sold during the past year, many new members have bought their tickets from ulators in them. ab less price than Is fixed by the as- tion. Some of these speculators have no name in the “Directory” nor any established business nor any place of business. Others are in the dry goods and other trades, If these applications for membership and the bylaws had not been neglected or disregarded a surplus of tickets would not now be in the hands of unknown speculators Clamoring for @ turther increase of price of membership to $1,L00 for no other purpose than to make the greater speculations in tickets, and thus perverting and using the New York Produce Exchange for speculating in its tickets. We tind that the assessment of 1,691 members, 200 each, amounted to And 546 members, $300, Interest and materials $338,200 163,800 7,523 oT a ——= 200,500 Making a total o: Paid tor building Paid tor repair: Leaving 1n the treasury., If itshould be said that recom- mended tor the purpose of raising a tund to build, we reply that this Was the pretence when we were assessed $200, but Instead of carrying it out the same parties who urged the assesment hought the old Exchange buildin and expended some $30,000 in alterations, saying it would answer for ten or twenty yea! But suppose we do conclude to rebuild some time, is is just and equitable for the managers to take our money to loan to one of their number or others at seven per cent, and they in turn loan it in ways of question- able justice and equity to trom twenty to forty per cent? Is it Just and equitable for the managers to assume guar- diaaship of our property, or at least so much of if as they. choose ask for ostensibly for building, but really to Joan or use? Some of us Go not feel that we need guar- dians just at present, and that it we are allowed to keep and use our money (except that which is necessary ior actuel expensed in & just and equitable manner, may be able and willing to pay our share of the cost of anew building when we decide by our vote that it is best to re- uild. But the naked facta, that the Produce Exchange has not sold a ticket for membership the past yoar, aud that many new members have been a¢ded who buy ticaets ot speculators cheaper than they can get them of the managers, show clearly that those speculators knew of the scheme to raise the price of initiation fee from time | to time, not to inure to the association. but to mere speculators wbo were allowed to secure tickets at the | low price in tickets, The proposed amendment was lost by even a larger majority than the first. MEETINGS OF THE BOARD. Then followed the proposed and unimportant changes 1n the matter of the meetings o1 the Board of Managers and the routine business to be ob- served at all such meetings, which were approved. “SURPLUS FUND.” The matter of amending section 22 of the bylaws It referred to tue “Surplus Fund,’? | and the Exchange Was asked to so change the sec- | tion that a majority of the Board of Managers vot- | ing could .make appropriations to an amount greater than $5,000, such vote to be taken by bal- Jot, after twenty days’ notice stating the object of such appropriation. The objections to this proposed change were that irregularities had grown out of such power. The number of the Board of Managers 1s twelve; seven 13 & cegaed § for appropriating money, and it had better stand. The members let it stand, SALARY OF THE SECRETARY. sate the Secretary for his services— the Board of Management to Mx the sum—was the proposed amendment to section 26. It was lost, the Secretary being a member of the Board, | and the members thought that honor enough. MATURING OF CONTRACTS. It was also proposed to add the following sec- tions to the bylaws :— | Sxett0N 49.—In the event of inability on the part of any | member or members to meet his or their contracts or other mercantile obligations at maturity it shall be the | duty of the President, on the voluntary statement of the insolvent party, or on complaint of their alleged in- solvency, to appoint a committee of three members of the Board of Mansgers, who shall immediately pro- ceed to determine the question of inability by summon. | ing the party or parties in default before them, with such | others as the committee may deem necessary for this purpose. If the committee shall find that the inabnlit Of such member or members to meet his or their obl} | ations arises from unforeseen circumstances, and that his or their conduct has been consistent | and honorable, the committce shall so report to the Board of Managers, whereupon the case shall be dis- missed. But if the party or parties in default shall fail to appear, or if the committee shall not be satisfied with | the case as presented to them, they shall refer the same | to the Board of Managers, who shall proceed therewith | in the same manner as if referred to them by the Com- plaint Committee Sxc. 50.—The inability of either party to meet a contract shall forthwith work its maturity, and settlement shall be made or damages fixed at the priees current when the inabihty 1s declared. ‘The question of such inability shall be determined as provided in section 49. A failure or ree fusal to put up A cash margin, per terms of contract shall_ work the forfexture thereof and be treated as an act of insolvency. These were objected to on the ground that their provisions were abominable nonsense. The great principles of business were contemplated to be in- To com & ‘inged upon, and, upon motion of Mr. Bingham, { they were referred back te the Board for further consideration. ‘The meeting then adjourned. + > + ___ DEATHS.
