hs Last Words of n Respectable Man.

Tbs Last Words of n Respectable Man,
Such were the last words of one, universally
spected, whose memory will ever be cherished
Y inconsolable relations
A rich man dying call'd bis son,
To hear his last advice;
Whispering he spake-hls sight was gone
His feet were cold as ice!
Beware of evil spendthrift ways,
find wasteful company;
Be wise and frugal all your days,
If you would %yirtuous be,
Opinions current in the world
Adopt with deep respect,
New tangled thoughts and things, at once,
My prudent son, reject.
'O'er word and deed keep constant guard,
Your bright side let men see;
Society lays down certain rules
Fof all morality.
BE your attendance at your church
Constant; your prayer-book new;
Dress well, and do not fail to choose
A handsome, central pew.
HI illeHuSIIp have d WdhCiul cyeJ
Avoid a needy friend {:
He's not your friend--something he wants
Borrow not--neither lend.
AN men in troubled waters, shun,
find all things out o fjoint
Good tables scotland dinners give,
AS your best interests point.
IF any woman you have wrong'd-
Vice caused, and expense
Have foltitude--oh, fly from vice.
Leave her to Providence.
'For marriage in my will you'll find
A safe directing voice,
Where birth and competence combined,
Will bless your fathers choice.
Something l had to say on truth
Something on honesty
My memory flils--but stick to both,
When the best policy.
Gather my bills up--pay my debts,
And call my credits in;
With all men I would die at peace,
And all good memories win,
Zone debtor--he is very poor
A carpenter by trade
He'll never pay;-so by this man
You'll get my coffin made

to Dec. 18th, and bring the Important intelligence
that the Peel Ministry has resigned and Lord John
Russell has been invited to form a new set Ii ap-
pears the Ministers had determined to repeal the
Corn Laws, and the Duke of Wellington had u
greed to move it in the House of Lords subsequent
lythe Duke backed out and therefore the Ministers
resigned This leaves the Oregon question more
dubious than ever Russell was very decided in
maintaining the British claim when Folks naugur-
al was received: but he was then in the opposition
having tho responsibility thrown upon his Shout
ders, he may now initiate the more prudent course
of the late Ministers. Mr. Barring goes into the
new Cabinet, and is decidedly for moderation and
peace We anticipate war blasts from the next
British papers, by the steamer which was hourly
expected at Boston on Tuesday morning but The
Government will probably keep mum. new e.
lection of Parliament is almost certain, and this
may defer the action of Ministers upon the Oregon

The QUESTION UNDER DEBATE. The
apprehension which we yesterday founded upon
the tone of the debate in the House of Represent
atves, is certainly in some degree qualified by yes
terday's action ofthe Senate, in so far as the delay
OF month before acting cannot but be favorable
to a calm consideration and wise decision.
We embrace the opportunity to say that, in our
yesterdays reference to this subject, our only
purpose was to guard our readers from relying too
much upon our own specuatons on the probabi-
ties Of peaceful rather than hostile termi-
nation OF tho debated question, and cur expressed
confidence IN the former result, which they might
suppose based upon facts known to us and not to
them. We still think that there will be peace be-
tween us and old England, but we do not feel the
same confidence Of it since the disclosures made
in the debate going on in the House of kepresen-
tatiyes This IS all we meant to say.-.Ndt Intel
