MR.. DAVIS'S SPEECH.

The substance of the remarks Of Mr.. DaUiS
of Massachusetts, upon the bill to amend
the act for The relief Of certain persons en-
gagged in the land and naval Seryice of the
United States, IN the acar Of the revolution.
Mr.. Davis rose, and desired 20 he inform
ed Ivy the chair, what the amendment, pro-
posed by the gentleman from Rhode Island,
(Mr. Burgess was. The Chairman stated
that the proposition was, to strike out the
third and fourth sections of the bill, which
made provision for the miltia.] Mr.. D. said
he regretted that the gentleman, whom he
knew to he friend of this meritorious class
of veterans, had felt it to be his duty to
make this motion. He supposed, however,
it was not done in hostility, hut, through an
apprehension that the bill, incumbered by
these provisions, would not meet with the
appreciation of the House; he trusted, how
ever, that such fears would prove inbound
ed. Let US, for moment, look back and
see what we have done, and the principles
upon which we have legislated, before we
exclude, from participation in the benefits
of this act, class of citizens to whom we
owe, the deepest obligations, the most lively
gratitude. In 1918, this government pass
ed the first law on this subject, which made
provision for such persons as had served
the country nine months or more upon the
continental establishment, under one enlist
mont. The Interpretation given to this act
excluded all State troops and militia from
its benefits. A second act was passed at
the last session, but it was for the benefit
of officers and such soldiers as enlisted for,
and served during, the war. The bill now
under consideration, proposes to make pro-
vision, first for State troops, rs they are
generally called who were not considered
as belonging TO the continental establish
ment, and secondly, for such militia as serv-
ed more than nine months during the war.
tprovides for the relief of those, only, of
each class, who stanI in need of assistance
from their country, for their support. The
motion OF the gentleman proposes to strike
from the blll the militia, and, AS cannot
yield my assent to proposition so unjust
towards most meritorious class Of men,
must ask the Indulgence of the Committee.
for few moments only, while state nv
reasons.
Sir, said Mr.. Davis, why have you be.
slowed pensions upon the soldiers of the
line? Because they went into your service
when your country needed their aid be-
cause they endured the hardships and pri-
vations Of Il calamtous war, with that for
titude which patriotism alone could sustain !;
because they assisted to achieve your indie
pendenre, and to establish the free and happy
government under which we live because.
in their old age, they were found poor and
naked, having received no adequate reward
Tor distinguished services; because your
own poverty had prevented you from paw.
ing their lawful demands. think. sir
these must have been the considerations
which induced this government 10 pass the

THE OLD MAN IN WINTER.

THE OLD MAN IN WINTER.
On! there's a charm in morn like this.
For who is old as 1,
love to see those teeth-like caves,
And the snow that is drifting by,
1t gives my heart youthful thrill,
And love the wind and the blast.
l love their shrieks, as they pile on high
The snow that is falling fast.
This Winter Morn this Winter Morn!
How long to be wading out,
And be the first to tread the snow,
And be lost in the drifts about;
would dare the crust-so lightly step
AS to leave not pint or track;
But now I'm old, and dare not 90
AS would ifmy youth were back.
Those bending trees those breaking trees
That have their icy letters on,
1 mark those rainbow hues and tints
Their branches wear, in early sun;
And as look, those letters break,
And set the stifIened branches free,
They slide upon the crusted snow,
And in every piece new tints see.
And see those Joyous skaters go,
And turn upon the dazzling steel,
They dare the ice, those merry boys,
Which bends beneath them as they wheel
Methinks hear their shouts alar,
And see them start. and half turn back,
As glancing through The CLASSY ice,
They look far down and hear it crack.
Away away We merry boys!
The cold wind bids We HE away;
III were young, would lead your throng,
Or join you in your noisy play.
Away away cannot come,
For age is on my withered brow,
But still know your ars and joys,
For have felt, as you feel now.
Away away it must not be:
These pleading limbs, this hoary hair
Are eloquent to keep me back
From the holiday spirit there;
My heart springs up, and | fain would 60
And join you as You sweep along,
At every shout my blood is up,
And my aged pulses strung
Farewell, my boys; and think, oh think
What the old man passing by,
Though his hair is gray, still feels for ycu,
Ye boys of the sparkling eye.
My Summers ended, and my heart,
Though | number threessore years
OF Winters chill, at a sight like this
Overfows in youthful tears.
