AIR" She ,cOre Preaihe OF Roses
He wore glossy beaver the first time that we met
Raised up behind, DER his left eye most iauntiv it
set,
He twrlcd a slender cane between his finger and
his thumb,
And " Fly with oh, fly with men 1 heard
him gently hum:
saw him but momcnt-yet methnks see him
now,
With that cane betwixt his fingers, and the bea.
vcr on his brow.
l knew it was the same hat when next we met he
Wore,
But the beaver and his features were more faded
than before;
And standing with him there was one really do
not know
But heard him say, "Pd like to have that little
bill you owe"
saw him but momcnt--but methinks sec him
yet,
With the faded beaver, and the man who asked
him foi the debt.
And once again him no glossy tile was
there,
But very shabby hat, from which stuck out his
matted hair
His coat was closely buttoncd up, although, it was
in June;
He looked with fear right and left, and passed
me very soon
! saw him but a momcnt-yet methinks see him
now,
with shabby hat, without cane, and fear upon
his brow.

VIM. Cos, johnson, of MARYLAND

VIM. Cos, Johnson, of MARYLAND. a
prominent wing, has written a letter 10
tho Journal of Commerce, in which he
contends that our title TO the whole of
Oregon is as perfect as the title to any
portion, and insists ,ha, i, should be
maintained. In reference to the Benton
and Webster proposition he says:
"There are song. who, for peculiar
considerations, desire the abandonment,
of our claims TO Oregon, and speak of a
separate republic. l humbly conceive
lha. they will have but a few 10 join their
standard, either ready to parcel GU, our
territory to a foreign power, or to coun.
,enance the establishment of an indie pen.

and durability Of the nation is in the
magnitude Of its surface.-'remporary
excilenen,s in one section are spen, al.
most before they are known a, The ex-

In expressing the opinion tina, the title
Of the United States is good TO The entire
Of Oregon, and The hope tina. the nation
will never abandon It's claim, l would no,
be considered as entertaining the desire
that !, should act precipita.ely, bu, with
dignity and courage, which avoid all OK
