Three killed six woun ed-besides large
number OF prisoners Do you ask, where :?
answer, herein The city Of Washington.
Their names have all appeared in the public
papers within The last monlh--since the writer
came 10 your city:


Now, suppose the city Of Washington
contains 10000 inhabitants. and the U. States
2O,OOO,OOO, and the 1Jraat King had his agents
in proportion. II | calculate right, il would
be killed and 2 wounded, for every 10000
per month, which would make, per the whole
Union, 10000 killed, and $4,000 wounded,
per annum, besides the Prisoners.


Had these aggressions been committed by
British soldiers in Oregon, or had one OF our
Commodores had his throat cut on the Colum-
bia river, the nation would have been called
TO arms, and millions appropriated in defence
of our NATIONAL HoNoR


But, strange as il is, this arch enemy is suC-
Tered 10 sap the very foundations Of our Capt.
tol, and make captive, 1T his will, so,ne of the
nobest and best blood Of the nation


II is but few days since, that saw one of
the members Of the House making sport for
the rest-lookng as often at the south corner of
the gallery, at the centre of the clock, 10 see
whether his hour had expired,


inquired of d stranger, who stood by, who
| II was I? and was told il was the Hon. -
-, from the commonwealh II Of -,
one who had been one OF the most able and ia
Tented men in tile State. The last time saw
this gentleman he was in the lower regions of
the Capitol, Prisoner at the Bar


He; with many others, may be numbered
with the killed or wounded, unless the mem
bers of the legislature, come 10 the rescue; and
at least, remove the temptation from Our Temple
Of Liberty. Rally, then, rally, and save these
men before il is TOO late. 1t requires no sacri-
flee OF national honor-no appropriaiion-no-
thing but erample-Ex xAMPLE-EXAMpLE
