Thou hast thy faults, yIaGNIA!-yet own
love thee STILL although no son thine;
For have climb'd thy mountains not alone
And made the wonders of thy valleys mine,
Finding from mornings dawn till days decline
Some marvel vet unmarked-some peak whose
throne
Was loftier; girt with mist and crown'd with
pine,
Some deep and rugged glen with copse DER

The birth of some sweet valley or the line
Traced by some silver stream that murmured
lone;
Or the dark cave where hidden crystals shine,
Or the wild arch across the blue sky thrown;
OR else those traits ofnature more divine
That i'm some favored child of thine had shone.

full sound when agitated by the storm. At pre-.
sent our woods are leafless, but Spring will soon
clothe them in the bright array of flowers and
leaves: when Summer heats are passed away,
fruits and rich foliage will succeed, to please the
eye and CRAFTY the taste
According TO the picture recently drawn oya
Member Of Congress, our District is now decked
in scanty suit Of wintry rags. The Metropo.
lis Of the Nation is in a state with which there's
hardly parallel in the civilized world. Let
those who are pleased with such scenes enjoy
them; for ourselves, We still take our portion Of
day-dreams. We are pleased to look forward
to the prospect, of hundreds Of vessels OF all
kinds which will one day fill our Canal basins
and our harbors with rich cargoes-see thous.
ands oflaborers employed-towns springingu up
in tile interor,-and a mutual exchange taking
place ofthe necessaries and comforts OF life. In
casting our eyes over the we'll filled columns Of
valuable matter in the journals of our large
cities, we cannot avoid wishing for state
of things which would bring us such desirable
communications; and If the spring, summer and
autumn, which we covet, should produce US such
a luxuriant crop, We can assure our less fortu.
nate brethren, that we will endeavor to look
down upon them with all the good nature and
best wishes that we can afford them.
When the late Philip Doddridge, whose me-
mory is dear to our recollections, was appointed
Chairman Of the District Committee, he entered
on the duties OF his station with the intent to re.
ceive the National Legislature from the labor and
expense attendant on regulating its affairs. Not
willing, however to do this without due enquiry
as regarded the Nation, the District, and its sole
Government, he became, in the course ofhs en-.
quiries, completely convinced, that justice had
not been done them. His character for talent
and integrity, gave him weight and an infu.
ence which,, we believe, would have gone far TO
have cleared us ofour difficulties, and, by well
considered system, have eased Congress ofthose
labors Of which they complain. Since his day.
our case has been better known, and our friends
have increased; and amongst these friends, We
cannot omit to mention the present jealous and
efficient Chairman Of the District Committee
Mr.. CHM, of Virginia. We hope, their, good
wishes may produce change in our affairs
We cannot believe that there is single member
of Congress who would not rejoice to see the
District in prosperity. We are confident that
to effect this, we do not require more than those
who follow the example Of our deceased friend,
will be willing to afford to us.
