of last week in reading to respectable as

IMPEACH MENT.

We copy the following from Washing.
ton correspondent Of the N Y. Tribune
we trust it is correct. Nothinl would graft
fy Mr.. Tyler more than to be impeached,
in the present state of things at Washing
ton.
A great effort seems to be now making
in some quarters to create the belief that
the President is to be impedched, &c. &c.
1t is scarcely necessary to say to you that
this is mere nonsense, and believed here by
no men of sense. True Mr.. Bolts did threat
en- something of the sort but even if he
intended it as more than joke, / am sure
that none of the W igs considered it in any
other light. The Wing party have surer
and better mode Of attaining their end than
by attempting to do any such thing asthat.
That such end will be at last attained seems
now almost certain.

ECONOMY OF TEMPERANCE.

"a penny saved is penny earned is a
maxim Of the most frequent occurrence
Few, however, who quote it seem TO suspect
that, although, so far as it goes, it expresses
truth, yet it is far from expressing the whole
truth. This we shall endeavor 10 Illus
trate.
If the object of men were only 10 supply
themselves and their dependents with bare
subsistence the maxim might be considered
as. perhaps, reaching the whole truth. But
suppose the object of man to be, in addi-
ton, that which we call thrift; that is, in
effect, the mn wishes to save something
out of his earnings, and lay it by for cap
iial-a possession. Thrift depends no; SO
much upon what comes into mans hands
as upon what is retained there. One thai
spends as fast as he earns makes no pro-
gress towards possession. Now, in The
case of men of ordinary means,-as, for a
strong instance, that Of the day laborer.-a
large part Of the earnings must, of necessi-
ty, be parted with, to support the laborer
and his family, or other dependents. Out
of the dollar day, ninety cents, we will say,
is necessary 70: the expenses of life; the re-
manning ten can be laid aside and kept
To save ten cents, therefore, requires dol
lars worth of labor. II economy is used
respecting this small daily amount one finds
himself able, in single year, to purchase
an acre or two, or three of land, or Some
other valuable possession; but, if the small
sum is daily wasted, all that can be said Of
the laborer and his family must be that they
have iued,-but they have made no pro.
gress towards comfortable independence.
"A penny saved is ten pence earned
that should be the maxim when We talk OF
thrift. The common maxim goes but a
little way towards explaining the reason of
that vast difference which we observe be.
tween those families which cast off habits
of needless indulgence and those which have
some among them who throw awny a small
sum daily t.the bottle. But, o, says the
man who swallows his ten cents at a taste
or Two, that is a trife; one hours work to-
morrow, will make 1t good. You mistake,
neighbor, all tomorrow must be spent TO
make it good. And may not this explain
how it is that you, hardworking man as you
are. always feel the pressure of straitened
circumstances, while your friend across the
way, being totally abstinent man. i'm
proves his home lot and house and enldrges
his little stock perceptibly every year,
o, lei the poor man think of this; PEN

munity think OF this. Let both think and
