The poor- laws hold out a certain provifion for their fupport, without making hardly any diftin&ion between thofe who have rendered themfelves poor by in- dolence or vice, and thofe who are reduced to a irate of indigence by unavoidable misfortunes. And hence the moll flothful and criminal are well lodged, clothed, and fed, at the public expence ; while the moft ufeful and deferving members of fociety fubfift on a more fcanty pittance, and on- ly recei ve what they earn by hard labour. Some hav...e thought that all, who have not large families to fupport, fhould be compelled to fubfcribe to fome friendly or parochial club. The idea however of compulfion is revolting to the mind. Compulfion would impofe a fecond poor- tax, and that to be levied from a clafs of men who are leaft able to pay it. Parliament certainly meant to proteft and encourage Friendly Societies by the acl paffed in their behalf; yet it has excited fuch alarms among them *, that * On this account, the focieties at Sunbury have declined to have their rules confirmed by the Magiftrates.
