Mr. Colquhoun, in his "Treatise on Indigence," page 7, ob serves, that" poverty is a most necessary ingredient in society, without which nations and communities could not exist in a state of civilization." Perhaps it would be easy to show that there is a much nearer connexion betwixt poverty and crime, which is the reverse of refinement, than poverty and civilization.
