We have jus, received from Rocka-
way the (, flowing 'pelIiIon' from oav
irl,rl the MAJOR addressed Ia Cong ress
the Representatives o he people
We have, we confess, bcen led iitO
the popular belief TINT nothing short ef
m,iahip p0mer- something OF mdalGc
character at least, could M ms ont oi our
4 pre- sent ditlic,lty y-bnt W. find that we,
in common with large ard extended
cicle, are in crror-and that wh,n We
come 10 lifting we want a poner of di-
recilv opposite charncie'. We further
confess that we never have seen thR
credit :, stem stationed jo,ih more adron-
" and more appropriated The Major
will see, when hc comes 10 go the Pre-
SidcnI's Message to-dav. that the Presi-
dent don't agree with him as to the ,rpe-
diency of getting "tf' the W. Tollies or
any other Polly though h" does indi-
r,cily hint 1T he use al something not
unlike III" Majors plan. in the way of

iloSonABLE GENrLEMEv--I have
hten waitin fer this da, 10 come ever
since the Two Police was run on shore
by Captain jumper, so that ] could lazy
the case ri9ht aio'e the bnll people IN
one swing, Tor there is no way of gcttin
any matter well attended Ia that belongs
to the people, ill their rrpre sc niatives all
git together at Washington in Congress.
J. look upon YOU ics, a. | would on a bar
rel OF cider billed down to qnat-for
the hull barrel s in that quart, and Jest
so the hull people are in yru.
suppose YOU all know that the Tw"
Polcs is on 81 ore, and that OWN TO that
condition she is in considerable peril
both masts are broken "l, and very
lretlc more than her hull j. LETT. 1t IL
pretty we'll known how she got in this
snarl-and the neat thing is to see IL
some plan can't he fixed on to get her
out ont You have the power TO do
this, and as every body knows and feels
that there H. no. and never has becn aud
never will he ngin, any vessel ailnat that
can compare with the Two Pullies-it
Is your duty TO see that some means are
taken to get her of shore. Every body
" ho has been off to see the hull of this
vessel says there aini noihin that floats
that comes any way nigh her for beauty
and s,rcngih-icr tho she has now bcen
thumpin on The beach for a considerable
spell-she is as sourd and as strong from,
her keel 10 her deck tnnbrrs ms ever
she was-ihis is OWN mainly to the man
nor she WAS FIRST built for y"n know
and if you don't know, ] now tell you,
that she was built jest at the close Of the
last war, and all the imbprs IN her wa.
carefully taken from every State ,f the
Union-nnd she was built h, ahe nation
-rvcry State sending u caryc nter 10 see
that cvry part Of her was well put togeth-
cr-and evry carpenter too broUg ht TIM
b"r from his own State to put into her
live oak-locust- pitch pine-eedar-
aud all kinds used in ship hnildin-and
n compleier Job never was launched INTO
the water. So long as she belonged to
the nation all wen, on well enus-she
could do coastin trade and foreign
trade-she has been round Capes and
Pints nf all names and nalUr-"Capc
Ilorn," "Capc of Good Hope" "Cape
liaternss," Pint "Look out, "Pint Ju-
dnh," and "Pint no Pint, and every
body at home and abroad that know'd
any thing about sich kind Of craft, has
been hearn 10 say there warn1 sich a
vessel in all creation. Well, il turned
out in an evil day, that "The Govern
ment" haul'd down the national flag, and
said il warn't accordin 10 the constitution
TO own sich vessel, and that States on
ly should own and sail 'em. No sooner
said than done, all the States turned to
and built in hurry n hull batch Of vcs-
sells pretty much nlier the fashion Of Mr..
Jefferson's gun-boats-- but "old Penn
sylvnny" KNOWN old critter, and we'll
KNOWN what the "Two Pollies" was
composed on, struck in and boisted her
flag on the "Two Pollics.7 She knew
"a things was goin, if all hands went on
shore, the "Two Pollies" would stand
the best chance Of gct'in off with Ies,a
dsmage-and as things now stand, /
don't see bot she was about right fov
the 1.-TWO Pollies" ~ M sound now -
