A FRANTIC APPEAL.

Congress, stop talking, or soon will The nation at your speech, strung
 out; Your volubility has no utility, Save to ensure you q rout, We are tired, all of us-list to the At the way arguments stalk, Rhyme, right and reason, and sound
 sense in season
 All drowned in an ocean of talk, Your time you are taking this tarir
 in making
 In House and in Senate alike; Until it's construction is making . As slowest thing comes down the Free sugar, free leather, free wool and
 free weather,
 Free everything that one can see; With popular patience, with hopes of
 the nations, $ You also are making too free. The sound of your. voices no other For sure 'tis monotonous stuff; They go on repeating, hope of end de-
 feating,
 The country has got quiet enough, With talk we are dizzy, so, Congress,
 get busy,
 Revision is getting a cult; Cut out more debating; for action we're waiting.
 So get to some kind of result. Baltimore American.
