ROAD FROM FREDERICKSBURG
ALEXANDRIA.

To the Editor Of the Alerand,ia Gazette
When newspaper statements have the cfec
to produce conviction on the public mind it
not surprising that those concerned should pro
nounce them gratuttous and, on erroneous
grounds, assail the party making them, in Tx
absence of argument sustained by proof. y
this motive ascribe the remarks of the Frede
ricksburg Arena.
No reference was made by me TO the Rag
Road from Fredericksburg to Richmond: no.
did speak Of the extension Of the Road tro'
Potomac Creek to Washington. An experiencf
ofnearly twenty years, to an unprejudiced minc'
is amply sufficient to determine the proprieyo.
improving the road between Fredericksburg ana
Aexandria-the prophecy Of the Editor of the
Arena to the contrary, notwithstanding HeE
welcome to his opinions, but is assured that they
have no weight in opposition to the propose"
measure of improving the said road. In tne
winter of 1912 the navigation Of the POtomav
was closed three months and the shortest peIloo
of obstruction is never less than five or six weeks
which, according to the necessity Of a regular
nunctual, and certain transportation of the gres'

A mord for the Poor-The poor we are 10
"have always amongst u.s." 1t is the trueS'
charity the purest benevolence, to soothe the
distresses and relieve the wants OF those WIFI
us and of us. There is nothing spec"SaltDe Ia
comforting the widow, befriending the ,ofPhai'
clothing the Naked feeding the hungry, ana Vi
sting the sick. These are the kind oflces re-
commended by the precept and example OF tne
Redeemer of Mankind, and eminently Dehtuhg
the Christian life and character.
The poor, at this inclement season, must SUI
fer much. Now do the
"Houseless sons Of want
feel the rigor of winter and the consequent MI
serv of their situation. Many scene OF SUI
fering may now be witnessed amongst those
who, under mder Skies continue to make
themselves comparatively comfortable.
Around the few poor embers of their hearth,
They shivering, covering, sit, and bow the head;
The children have no smile, no sign OF mlrth
But eriefs and fears and wailings in their stead
The storm without assails their shaking she'd;
The snow through gaping board and window
flies;
Beneath the coverings Of tattered bed
An infant child lifts up its plaintive cries,
And then again the tears start in the mothers
eyes,"
The contemplation Of such a picture must
move the hardest heart
Need say then, let the good work COM
mence at once and in earnest! Let the rich
man pour out some of his treasure into the lap
of want! Let female virtue tighten up with its
lovely smile the dull eye Of the wretched mo-
Their, wife, or daughter! Let youth exert its &C
tivity in a cause which will do it honor Let
every hand be
Open as day to melting charity!
The blessings Of gratitude will follow us--the re-
collection of good deeds will always abide with
us-the prayers Of faith will be offered for us!
+" Friends Of your race! Co. break your loaf,
and bear
It's fragments to your poor, who suffer SO.
IHev too are human beings Let them share
Your kindness, nor sink down to hopeless Woe"

The Lynchburg Virginian justly remarks,
that the manly independence of former days
has been superseded by the fawning devotion
Of those who want office to those who dispense
the patronage of the government. Partizan
zeal is now the passport to Distinction instead
of intellect, virtue and patriotism. Honest diff
ference of opinion is punished as a crime hard
ly less odious than treason Parasites flourish
in the purlieus Of the court, and they who would
have the courage to speak the truth in the ears
of power are a prescribed race Such has
been the necessary consequence Of introducing
the principle of rewards and punishments"
into the administration of the government.

duct-or is il from any political feeling or par
TALLY? If the last, we for one lift up our hands
against it. We would reprobate such political
persecution. 1t can come to no good Let the
friends of the Administraton-let the friends OF
our free Institutions be assured of the fact"
Bravo! Well done for the Enquirer We
would return thanks to the Enquirer at length,
but for fear that praise from such an excom-
municated hereto, as we are, might brighten
our old friend from his present "propriety."

1t is stated, by the Pennsylvania, that the CT
ty Authorities of Philadelphia lately removed
upwards of sixty watchmen from their employ
ment, on account of their political opinions
Such an instance Of unadulterated JacksoniSm
we did not look for from that quarter. Pro-
Scription is hateful to us, come from what
source it may. The Pennsylvania says, that
the proceeding excited disgust in Philadelphia,
and several of the men have been reinstated.
If the facts stated are correct, those concerned
in this business ought to be ashamed Of them
selves
