TO THE EDITORS.

GENTLEMEN: have observed with much pleasure that
your paper frequently presents it's readers
lques Of former days, and that its columns beauted
by extracts from the poets Of oden time Will you per-
NIT me to offer for introduction into your columns
tract from old and fayorte author lines which
would earnestly recommend to the members Of Congress-
and ask them while sympahirng in the sentiments ex-
pressed to those sympathes to the full extent
doing justice to ALL especially to the widow and the
phan to whom in so many instances the demands Of jus
tice have descended?
How little knowest thou that hast not tride,
What hell it is in suing long to bide;
To lose good days that might be better spent
To wear long lives in pensve discomfort;
To speed to-day, to be put back tomorrow;
To feed on hope, to pine with fear and sorrow;
To have thy princes grace, yet want her peeres;
To have thy asking, yet waite mamie yeares;
To fret thy soul with crosses and with cares;
To cate thy heart through comfortless despairs;
To fawne, to crouche, to waite, to ride to rome;
Tospcnd, to give, to want, to be undone
Unhappy wight, borne to disastrous end
That doth his life in so long tendance spend"
Spsncers Mother Hub6arfs Tak.
An old story, not the less true.
The quotation might have been extended But will the
members read this and clay it to hsart and especially
Will the members Of the various committees before whom
claims are presentedf G.
