The earth ylelded nothing, Heaven opencd its floodgates, and the eye of the Osmanil was watching grecdily the smallest prey. That which the storms did not destroy went Into tho granary of the oppressor, and Lappy the oue who succecded {n sccreting o crust of bread. Tho winter was there,—the frightful winter with his whito robes, who brings pleasure to the rich,—to the poor, misery and want.

Two Storles of the Martyr President, Exeme plifying the Goodness of Lls Fleart and Mis Bense of Justice, Arpletons' Journal for Jannary, During tho summor of 1802 I liud veeaston to call upon President Lincoln ou bebalf of an officer who had falled to secure an edjustment of a clabin sgatost the Government. This of- ficer, attached to thestal of n Brigadier-Gen- cral, had been among the first to respond to the call for troops after the firing upon Fort Sum- ter, and had, during the first year of the War, secn most arducus scrvice in organizing snd sending regiments to the front, getiing scarcely more than four hours’ sleep out of each twenty- four for months In succeselon, durfug which be had never drawn a dollar of pay, His brigado belng stationed near Washington, bie applicd at the Papmaster's, and learned, to his great sur- prise, that, inasmuch ns the appointinent of bis General had not vet been confirmed by the Sea- ate, nons of his stafl offivers could besecoy- nized as entitled to pay. On the case bolng presented to the Becretary of \var, the justicn of bis claim was admitted, and Le was Informed that it should be promptly adjusted, but repeat- cd applications sceured unly empty promiscs, the great pressure at the Department of mat- ters of grave natlonal import superseding alt {udividual claims upon officlal attention. There- upon, & full statement of scrvizes rendered was drawn up, fodorsed by somo forty brother- officers, and, accompanied by a certificate of the same from his General, Iald before the House of Representatives, It was favor- ubly reported ou by the Committee on Claims, but Cougress adjourncd befors uny action was taken upon the report. Thus the matter stood when I undertook to lay it before the Prestdent, Sending In my card, the time belng opportune, I was at once shown into the nudience-roomn, where I found Mr. Lincoln along, and wos re- celvod with s cordinl grasp of tho hand, I eald that I had not called to ask for an uffles for my- sclt or any of my {riends, *‘1 am glad to hear It. Bit down, sir; that will make the conyersa- tion casler,” was hls responsc as in & froe, un- cercmonlous way he drew tne a chalr facing his .own. stated my errand and the facts of the case aa concisely us possible, and handed him a certified copy of tho documents that kad been 1ald before Congross, with the favorable report thereon. He listened attentively, Wheo 1 had concluded my statement bis first remark was, #Mr. G—, when you entered you said you had not called to sk for an ofiice for youraclf or any of your frlemls, but you have presented a mattet hiero that [ am afrall I suall find more dlifieulty in. disposinz of than I should bave found in an appiivation for an oflice.” “ Yes, sir,” was my reply, * for you could readily hiave rofused such an application bad you_scea fit; but I canngt sce how you can dm‘)‘y the justice to this aoplicant that fio has failed to fing any- wheru eise, snd towhich ho appeara so fully enti- tlednt the Lands of the Government. He thercupon, somewhat to my surprise, opened the tormidable roll of papers, read them entire- 1y through, and nearly through a second thine, ‘hen, speaking very dellberately, he sald: ©1 da not see how the Government of the United States can atford not to pav fis oftivera for ren- dering It thelr sorvices; and this case ls cvident- lyone of meritorious services that should be 11 for. :Now, sie, where sliall I send you to ve it dono '’ **Do notseud me," [ answerod, #t0 the War Department; 1 know the delay to be encountered there.
