POETIC ADDRESS.

CUNDRY original poems, grave and humoress, will
- be recited at the MEcRASic's HALL, Alexandria,
ON SATURDAY EVENING att o'clock,
and after the rehearsal contribution will be taken up
for the benefit Sf the authors family.
One of these Poems is q collegiate production, that
met with the applause of very respectable audience
wien delivered in college, and the author subsequent
ly declined solicitation to make it public. The au-
thor ayouth orespectable parentage and honorable
connections. BY an affective dispensation of F-ovi-
dence superadded to the expences of his education.
and train of misfortunes, he has been deprived, in
great measure, of the of providing for young
aud rising family. Further particulars viii be given on
the evening Of rehearsal.
The known character Of the citizens of this place
induce the fond hope, that the friends of literature and
the friends of humanity, will unite on this occasion to
reward. by their attendance, the honest efforts Of
youth, who sacrifices for the good of his family, his
tive feelings of pride, and submits to the humating
necessity Of soliciting public attentonto the efusions
of his unaspirng muse. Although the result Of this
his first debut will be little less to him than life DEATH
he would scorn to receive contribution unless the
dence deemed his performance merited reward.

The House then went into Committee Of the
Whole, Mr.. Condict in the Chair, on the bill
for the relief of the surviving Officers of the
Revolution. Mr.. Burgess Of Rhode Island,
moved to strike out the whole Of the bill re-
ported at the last session Of Congress, except
the enacting clause, and insert in lieu thereof,
a bill reported at the present session, providing
for the relief Of Officers only, with view that
provision might be made for the Soldiers in a
separate bill. The Committee refused to adopt
the proposed amendment. MIR. Burgess then
moved to amend the bill by striking out all at
ter the enacting clause, and inserting the amen
datory bill reported at the last session by the
Committee on Military Pensions, providing for
all classes Of the Revolutionary Army. This
amendment was adopted, and the blanks in the
bill having been filled, the Committee rose and
reported it TO the House. And then the House
Adjourned.
