We are so much indebted to Mr.. Roberts, the able
editor of the Boston Times for the handsome compliment
he has recently paid TO U.S. and the following anecdote
reflects so much credit upon Mr. Beach, that we cannot
forbear giving it place in the Union. After the mag
nifcent dinner which the retiring editor gave to the
editors of New York, he invited the employees of the
Sun establishment TO a farewell splendid banquet On
this occa7on Mr. Roberts appeared being prevented by
his enga sements from attending the first entertainments

proprietor of the Boston Times" Mr.. Roberts, who had
