nature yours, yet help carry your beautiful

sand dollars per annum and will give one hundred dol
lars ten per cent? And propose that every person
poyed BY the government, from the highest TO the
lowest grade make donation Of ten per their
salary for the same purpose this would produce sum
10 tho aggregate which would astOnish the contributors
and am sure that there Is not at least ought to
