JCdltor Daily Neict : I auk a BinoU space In your
columns to call attention to a fow facta with refer
ence to tlio distribution of corn among tbo indi
gent of our country which Room to linvo OBCapod
tho notieo of thoso who havo initiated measure*
fur relief. Contrary lo tbo usual aim of philan
thropic-, i' bos been thought necessary to aid
only thoso who, from auy oauso aro unable, in tho
disturbed condition of our industrial system, to
procuro bread for themselves and tbolr families.
Of coursu it is important that tho destitution of
thin class of OUT citizens Should bo rclioved; but it
ie a midtako to suppose, it solely important to con
fur chanty upon auch, whilo a largo and respect
able working class, upon whoso energies and ulti
mate success our country is dopondont for
subsistence next year, are suiTaritig tho keenest
tortures of hunger every day, Thousands of these
aro working daily without broad, and trusting to
souio unforeseen ciroumstanoo, whioh oven the
imagination cannot deflno, for means of support
until tbo next harrest. Tho mere fact of their be
ing ablo to work, and of our dopendor.cn upon
thorn, makes it of paramount importance that their
sufferings bo rolioved as speedily as possible.
Thoso pooplo before tho war were living compara
tively in a state of oaso, and it is from no lack of
energy or industry on thoir part that they hare
been thin rcducod.
I hr.vo travelled extonsivoly through all parts of
this D.strict, and acquainted myself thoroughly
with tho condition of the pooplo; and I state facts
which aro known to mo when I say that hunger, sb
a postiloneo, is dasoUtiog our lands; like a
cloud it has obsourod the sunshine of thousands of
homes, and unloss help oomos from abroad to tho
latbring classes of tho District and State the pros
pects aro that a fnmtno will en m uo. whioh it may taek
tho philanthropists of tho world to conquer; for
it le m inifest that thoso pooplo can not labor with
out food; and bosidos the rotinuo of ovile i whioh
will follow in tbo wako of starvation, elokndal'and
death, would dishearten the veriest misanthrope
that over contempla tel with ' stallen the terrible
ravages of human distress. " ' , i.
I respectfully call tho attention of tho authori
ties to these facta, Uiat thoy may seo tho proprioty
ot relaxing tho rule which excludes tho laboring
class from participation in tho benefits of thoir
charity, and to ahow tho necessity ot limoly.ro
liof if thoy would accomplish any real good in our
midst. : lXONIDAS.

Tim nbwirpopoT controversy over- tbo authorship
I of tho popular song, "Rock Mo to SIcop, Mother,
has been followed by a vindication' of the claims of
Mr. Alex. M. W. Ball, of Elizabeth, N. J., mado by
the Hon. O. A. Moreo, of Uatorry Vnlloy, N. Y.,.
which M. W. Dodd, of N. Y., prints for him in a
thin quarto shape, aud Lao & Sbopard havo for
solo. It is claimed that Mr. B. wrote a poem of
fifteen stanzas in 1850-7, and that a coloetion of b!x
of these stanzas forms tho popular Bong, which
Mrs. Akors (Florence Percy) avers ehe wrote in
Italy anu forwardod to a Philadelphia nowspapor
in 1800, and thoy aro inclnded in the'volumo of her
"Poomri" publialicd by Ticknor fc Fields in 18 CC.
It is alleged that Mr. Ball could write the poem u.
dispute, bocaus,o ho has written others equally
good, nndeomo of his unpublished US. is glvt- i
for the reader's own. conclusions' It is alleged
liiat ho did writo tho oocm, on tbo strongth of the
statoincuts of sundry persons, who say thoy heard
him road it an. hin own, two "or throe y earn before
alic published her copy. Th'OfO statements are In
lottere, twu of whioh nave full names attached as
tho writers, aud initials ara only given to others.
It is claimed, also t rat internal ovidence shows
ono mind's work in the fifteen stanzas ; that other
pooniB of Mr. Ball's, said to have been wrjitten four
years boforo Mrs. Akor's claim, show parallelisms
of thought and stylo to t lie poem in dispute ; and'
that Mr. Ball's original draft with interlineations'
could bo produced. We presume Mrs. Aker's will
feel herself called up?n to answer this implio I
charge of literary larceny. Tantaene animU axils

Mr. W. Carow Hazlitt, who has done good work

Iiis reviewers gays very, frankly tuat it doos not
corne, up , to the mark, the biographical portions
being far from Batlalactory, while thbee which in
terest us most ore almost exclusively due to Haz
litt1 s own correspondence. Strange to Bay, ho
adds, tbo author makes hardly any attempt what
ever to convoy to his readers - clear and true ideas
Of Hazlitl's intellect, or his nature. Ho is, r.tr.ctly

collector of lot torn and oxtrocts, who interweaves

' Tho subjoct of Amusement as a For a in Chris
tian Training, is treated in four dlBCOursos by tho
Rev. Marvin It. Vincent, of Troy. In tbo opinion
[ of the author, when the church has touched the
subject of amusement, it has generally done so in
I a censorious spirit. ' It has issued its d cr tais
j and resolutions aga nst cortata forms of social re
creation, and prescribed penalties for enRcging in
them, while it has left alono the broader relations
of tho quostion. Mr. Vincent tai.es a more liberal
and comprehensive view of the whole matter, and
contends that Uxo devil Is not neoossarily at work
in a theatrical-representation, a game of billiards,
or a fi stive banquet. v\< ., j
