WORTHY Of IMITATION.

WORTHY Or I'M ALUM
1t is with pride, as men. friends OF
honor. as citizens Of Richmond, that
We bring to the readers election a
transaction which has lately occurred
in this city. A few months ago the
conduct Of Scotch tailor. Who misra-
ted "a Richmond, rung through the
English and American Papcrs-he
Was held up az pattern OF honesty.
and Justly did he merit the compli-
menis which were paid him. He
had left Great Britain in debt, after
pledging himself to repay his credi'
mrs, as soon as it was in his power.
He adhered TO that p-OmiSe-he did
not see that space or time could part
him from his honor-as soon as he
had gathered a small sum OF mo-
new from the wages oil his labor IN
this city he RENTED it to his creditors.
The act was aPplauded in the British
prints. ant the American prints re-
peated the strain.
A memorable case Of honorable
dealings may be drawn from the late
conduct of two of our own citizens
We cite no names, but the persons
here arc Sufficiently known-We name
the act out of respect TO them-1re
Nish to pay them the poor tribute OF
onr res 1ect-but they have their re-
ward, not in the fugitive columns ola
newspaper, but in their own breasts.
Some weeks past, an advertisement
appeared in the public prints, that
{" The Assignees Of - and -
having been furnished with funds, arc
ready to pay the remaining s.5ths
of the balance Of the debts which re-
NAMED unpaid after the final dividend
of the said estate. They are al
so furnished with funds for the pay
ment Of the balance Of the debts pro
we'd against Zone Of tic partnersl
individually. Apply at the counting
house of -"
Now, what are the facts ? Several
wears ago. two gentlemen engaged IN
business in this city, were unfortunate
enough 70 fail. On sUrreRdcring
their effects they obtained discharge
from their creditors. Their reputa-
ten survived their misfurtuucs, and
they again embarked IN the same bu-
siness on their own accounts, each
upon his own footing-Fortune smi-
led upon their industry and enterprise
and made them comparatively rich.
1t was then the solidity OF their
principles were manifested. Though
discharged in fact and in Law from the
claims Of their creditors. they did not
conceive themselves discharged in a
court of conscience. With an honora-
bic spirit which reflects on them the
highest credit, they determined to sa.
tisfy those debts from which they had
been released. They set apart funds
for that purpose. to the amount oil
nearly $4,000 dollars. Comment on
such conduct is superauous. On such
rs have no heart to feel the dignity Of
the transaction, words would be onl.
thepwn away.
