From the London Times, March IL.
The language of Lord Clarendon and
Lord Aberdeen, in the short discussion
which took place last nightin :he House, on
a motion for the correspondence relating
to the last Oregon negotiation, reflects
honor on the temper, Judgment, and good
feeling of those eminent persons. That
every exerlion, consistent with the ma.
tional honor, will be made TO preserve the
peace, was the gracious declaration made
by Her Majesty from the throne, and no
one in this country has entertained the
least doubt that it will be strictly adhered

emphatically repeated, for no distrust has
ever been expressed upon the subject.
But we have now abundant evidence from
the United States that the moderation of

With roses on thy cheek
And heart as guileess as birds
In summers green retreat;
And the sunlight of the beaming eyes
In memory will float back
As the vessel spreads her snowy sail
Upon her ocean track.
