We extract the following ieud'esprii from the Bos-
ton Courier Of Tuesday.
WHEN WILL CONGRESS- RISE I'VE were about TO
propose this question, which we believe every man
in the country wishes TO see practically answered
with all possible despatch, when our eye lighted
upon the following scrap, which some wag has
thrust into our advertisement box.
MEN MISSING.
Len their homes about the beginning Of last win
ter, number Of middle aged gentlemen, who have
not since returned. Their friends being alarmed
for their safety and reputation would be exceeding
" thankful for any information concerning them,
and would bestow very handsome reward upon
any friend Of humanity, who will restore them 10
their anxious families and connexions. Were last
heard of in the city of Washington, where they bad
got into bad company, and were laboring in such
manner as 70 reflect no credit ON their character.
Had on when they left home, good stout breeches,
which are probably BY this time, entirely worn out
by their long sitting. Any charitable person who
should meet with them is earnestly requested to fur
nish each of them with new pair as il is notorious
that the unfortunate gentlemen are constantly er-
posting themselves. Information thankfully received
at this Office, and all necessary charges paid
