The HON stead Exemption.

Why will not the citizens of Washington and
vicinity interested in the mensure-and who is
not Join their brethren in New York and other
places in sending respectful petition to Con-
gress in favor of this great national object? An
earnest appeal in its favor from our citizens
would have its weight in Congress whereas q
neglect to second the object here might
strengthen the belief in the minds of some repre-
senatives that tie people not in favor of it.
There is sufficient evidence in the progress of the
age in the melioration of the condition of the
masses, in the general adoption of State exemp-
ton laws. that this great measure of giving to
every American, who will go and cultivate it,
farm from the public lands, is merely question
of time 1t will be carried through eventually by
the force Of enlig htened public opinion The point
for us to consideris whether we and our contem-
poraries will enjoy it, or our children. The land
is now lying idle, ready under cultivation and
the blessing of Gods rain and sunshine, to yield
its bountful products: and how many strong
hands would labor, and willing hearts be glad
dcned now in destituton and sorrow, Mt the
thought Of making themselves and children a
sure home.
We have now liberal Congress in session, and
the object may rs well be attained at present as
at future day All that is required is an ex-
preston Of public sympathy with the measure.
Not only the poor and destitute who need this
bounty, but the forchanded who do not are in
terested in it, 1t will relieve society of many
burdens and some yagabonds. 1t will be better
than a house of refuge for many an idle boy. 1t
will carry off many n widow with her boys and
girls, and place them in circumstances to better
their condition. Although labor is in demand
and well paid in our city, and every branch OF
business furnishing there are hundreds Of young
mechanics among us who would find it for their
interest, rs well as morals and health, TO accept
n prize thus offered, and become true treemen IN
being lords Of the soil Not only these, but we
recommend office clerks not only to take hold of
this measure. rs one Of public utility, but 60
themselves and take farms. Leave Uncle Sam to
keen his own books Instead of coming short on
n thousand dollars per annum, go where beef and
potatoes fail not, if money does-where there is
no danger of dismissal, and where it will be for
their health and independence to fatten their
own turkeys, rather than buy them.
Are there no pubic-spirited citizens to start
the petition? W. y
