course of charity ! Many years have since elapsed, and it is doubtful if they have yet been forgiven by those who most profited by their prudence.
Indiscriminate charity, the result of ignorant bene- volence, is a positive injury to the poor. This is a truth which cannot be too often nor too strongly im- pressed upon the public mind. Want of discrimination not only diminishes the fund from which the poor is to be supported, but it greatly increases the number of claimants. There are monasteries..., at the gates of which food is indiscriminately distributed to all applicants, and the consequence is that the surrounding districts are always on the verge of starvation. " It is not money only, " says Rousseau, "which the unfortunate need, and they are but sluggards in well-doing, who know to do good only when they have a purse in their hand. " Civilization constantly tends to increase the sphere of active benevolence ; it enables the poor to be bene- volent to the poor, for it shews how very often great good may be effected by humble means.
