PrObity and Honor.

The Boston Transcript thus speaks of the
important virtues of probity and honor:
"How few people there are who have no,
had occasion, some time in the course oi
their experience, to echo that apothegm oI
Falstaff s, "Lord, how this world is given to
lying, How rarely is speech to be receiv.
ed in its verbatim ct literatim" sense, and
how often must the key to sentence be
found in the little extenuating phrase "as

the "errors excepted of bill of merchan-
disc, but carefully kept back a mental re-
serve to be brought into action only in case
the victory is doubtful. There was time
when, in mercantile circles, mans word
was like his bond, but with the increased
number of persons engaged in trade, and
the consequent eager hurrying for riches,
the. strife for profit and the contention for
business which the great centres of CONNER
cal life exhibit there has come also an in
difference to those nice points of moral
honesty which formerly /. surpassed the
strength Of law itself. Much of this laxity
of commercial morals is no doubt owing to
the substitution of modern recklessness for
the slow and sure mode of conducting busi-
ness which characterized our fathers. The
eagerness to extend the field of operations,
which is SO noticeable a feature of modern
enterprise, does not admit of the coolness
and deliberation which should be the essen
tials of every business transaction. But
there is an opposite side to every PROPOSE
ton, and what is thus gained in speed is
lost in nIsecurity. Indeed, in many of the 80
called business operations Of the day, the
probable chance Of snccessi is small indeed,
while the stakes in these games of chance
are to be reckoned in hundreds and thou.

One OF the most beautiful tributes ever
paid to iAdiVidual worth, was rendered to the
late Samuel Appleton of this city. 1t was
question as to the authenticity of sigma
ture to note. The sum of the note was
small, but believing it not to be his, although
the same name, he refused to pay. The af-
fair in due time reached trial. Various
witnesses were brought whose united testi.
mony appeared too strong to be shaken
They were opposed only by the simple as
sertion of Mr.. Appleton, who denied that
ne gave the note, for what he deemed sutfi-
cient reasons. The case was given to the
Jury and mark the result. The award was
in favor of Mr.. Appleton. The strict integ-
rity of his life, the unfinching and scrupu-
lous honesty of all his business transactions,
gave his word value which outweighed
all the opposing testimony. Subsequent
events proved the justice Of the result
The note had been given bp another indi-
vidual by the same name, who was not in
country at the time of the trial. If those
who are on the stage now, covet such con-
hdence, they must have character which
will outweigh swift witnesses, and offset
combination of untoward circumstances.

Sandwich Islands.

There are various rumors about the sup
posed treaty for the annexation Of these IsI-
ands. Among others, the Albany Journal
has the following summary, said to be the
substance of the treaty:
The Islands are to be at once admitted
into the Union, not as Territory but a, q
Sate-with full State sovereign powers
In consideration of this surrender of their
National sovereignty, the United States. be.
sides agreeing to respect all existing chas-
ters, land titles, &C., are to pay some $500.
900 or 100000 annually as life annaities
to such persons as the sovereign authosities
shall designate. 1t is believed that the num-
Der who will be declared entitled to share
in this annuity, will not exceed thirty in
dividuals, including the King, his two sons,
and the members of the House of MOBILES.
all of whom are now rich, and constitute the

ages will average about 40 years; and the
sum to be paid to each will cease to be q

Besides the sovereignty of the Islands
all the Government Property-includinR
buildings, claims upon foreign Governments,
&c.--will, it is understood, be transferred
to the United States Government by this
Treaty. The value of these Buildings alone
are said to exceed 81 500, 900, and the Claims

: Clay on FsreIaners.

HENRY CLAY, in 1861, made this speech
in the United States Senate:
''Mr. President, there are some foreigners
who always remain exotics, and never be.
come naturalized in our country; whilst hap,
PLY there are many Others who readily attach
themselves to our principles and institutions.
The honest, patient, and Industrious Ger.
man, readily unites with our peoples; estab-
fishes himself upon some of our fat land,
fills his capacious barn, and enjoys in tran.
guilty the abundant fruit which bis dill.
gence gathers around him, Gl,cGys ready to
fly to the standard Of his adopted country,
or of its laws, when called by the duties Of
patriotism" ~
Again: "The gay, the versatile. the phi
