From ike Aurora,
It is with the tnoft grateful sensations of
pleafurc that we mark a disposition in man)'
' members of the present congress, to procure
some eftettuai relief for the surviving foldiws *
oftiie revolution, who are unable to pass the
remainder of their days bie&d with a portiou
of the comforts of life, all of which they dc.
serve from their services and their wounds.
The number of those living is but small, ifit
were greater, the obligation to relieve would
still bp the fame; in molt inftanccs, theft?
worthy invalids havelargcfamilies, for whoTe
education at lead it-is the duty of the state
to enable the parents to provide. This hon
ora hie disposition to relieve manifefts itfclfin
a puoad and prosperous period of oiir country,
v/hilft the bleflings are univcrfally felt from
a corredt adihinillratibn of our conftituHon,
let those whose blood was spilled tp procure
them receive that mark of gratitude bell a
dapted to their wants : by granting relief the
present government will gain ,an additional -
portion of the applaufc of the prefentand fu
ture generations—the aft will be recorded
among the other evidences of pure patridt
ifm and humanity which have been given for
the last 4 years. Let it no longer be a fe
proach to our country that the men who
fought for our liberties atenot fa well pro.
vided for as thefoidiers of England are by
their government, who fought for our en.
/lavement. Let the tear be wiped
that flows down the check of the war worn (
veteran, on a recollection of the treatment
experienced from the man who, f 1 has left
no equal behind him j” and let a Icflbn be
given to those who may be hereafter called
to rhe defence of their country, thatalthoagh 1
they may receive injustice at one time, the
day of retribution mud come.—
