An humble proposal for relieving, reforming and employing the poor. And herein by vertue of one new general law, instead of near forty statates, relating to the presmises. We may comfortably maintain all th' impotent poor, judiciously employ all the capable poor, probably reform the profligate poor; and gradually sink, and in time, totally discharge all our poor-rates, - And we may further receive, from that new-law, all other political benefits, which populousness, arts, and industry, can possibly produce.
