An Ode to all Mankind.
BY ]. C. YOUNG, M. D.

All We who suffer, ponder whilst you read
As tits your case, alone. not mine, plead
Ye who have felt, or feel them, Know the pangs
Mans doomed to bear, when the remorseless fangs
OF dire disease is fasten'd in his soul.
When he would seek the Dagger or the BOWL
To end his misery by the potent spell
Of deadly poison, or the polished steel.
Yc who have wrthed and groan'd from night to morn,
Cursing the hour that ye were born!
Seeking your pillow thinking to find ease,
Then wildly rushing forth to court the breeze
Hoping 'twould quench the flames that mady burn'd
In evry vein, as if your blood were turn'd N
To molten lava
To him who hath felt this,
| need not speak, as he knows what it is.
But such as only feel the incpient spark, -
Should read this Ger, and evry sentence mark
Upon the tablets of their memory,
As none may tell how he'll tomorrow be.
But all should know, in dark afflction's hour,
Where to apply to one who has the power
To case their pain so prompt. they'd think my hand
Must surely grasp Necromancers wand,
Like some good Genii of the oden time
Whose ev'ry act bespoke his power sublime
Within this city--throughout all the State
In eyry town and hamlet, small or great, ..
Some can be found who know the power WELD
Having tried it-know it to the n a shield
Stronger than that which Achilles of yore,
Upon Scamander's banks, in battle bore. rt.
They know it sav'd them from the blush of shame,
Preserved their health and dearer far their name, "
For who'd confess the pain that spoiled his rest .
Sprang from source impure, to say the least.
Ye suffering thousands who may read this DER,
REMEMBER ALONE can you restore
To health and usefulness. tt
az
That you may know
have the means and power for doing So
| here will state. Let each note what saw.
My motto always is-NO CURE NO Pay

the sense in which it becomes practically ap.
plicable, calculated to misIead the public mind.
The advantages derived by the Glass; referred
tofIom the enhanced value CT the public lands
in the new Territories, resulting from the in
lux OF population, are comparatively small. 1t
is the INSCRIPTIONS spectators, who never re-
side upon or cultivate the lands, the non-pro-

rive the advantage, because they have the
capital and means Of combination, aud WELD
the political power which enables them to
represent their interests in Congress and 10
legalze by special enactments ali violations Of
law in which they have pecuniary interest.
For practical examples, respectfully refer
you to on act pas ed on the I'd of March last,
and to the Act Of 1852, upon which it is
based recognizing certain presumption claims
in the Fort Smelling reservation, original
made in violation of existing laws, by when
the town Of Mendoza is secured to its prOpr:-
etors. Mr.. Sibley, late Delegate in Congress
is the principal owner of this town. and there
are others, prominent as spectators and poll
ticians, whose names are not material. also
refer you to all the circumstances stated in
this communication and to the LIST of the
names of the parties interested in that part
OF the Reservation lying on the east side OF
the Mississippi, among which will be found
that of Henry NJ. Rice, the present Delegate
from Minnesota.
In view Of these considerations, I cannot
but believe that it is due to the public, and
to the preservation Of the integrity Of natio-
raj gislation, that an investigation of all the
facts and circumstances connected with the
settlement and sale of lands within the Fort
Smelling Reserve should be instituted; and
that all patents for these lands now pending

ded until an official report can be made upon
