GREAT BRITAIN.-The London Times, of
the 9th, publishes in its city article an anony-
nous letter from Washington in regard to the
Presidents views of the Mexican question, and
pretaces the letter with remarks, condemning
both Mr. Buchanan's and Mr.. Douglass prof.
eet for absorbing Mexico, and insisting that
Great Britain, on account of the large debts due
her from Mexico, ought to be admitted as a
partner in the proposed protectorate and dis
memberment of Mexico.

The poetry of Burns was all written within
the brief space of eleven years. His first verses
were indited when he was sixteen, addressed
to ''sonsie lass" who was fellow laborer in
the harvest; and he died, like Byron, at the
early age of 81. How brief the years how
great their work
The wish has often been expressed that
Burns might have lived under circumstances
more favorable to the development of his ge-
MUS. The opinion is advanced that he would
for fame, had he been placed above the carking
cares of the world. This wish and this opin-
ion are kind and sympathetic, but are express
ed without a true insight to the real character
of the man, or correct appreciation of the
circumstances which surrounded him. Had
BURNS been reared in affluence, he had never
given US those delightful scenes of rural life
that have found response in the hearts of
millions of the laboring poor. The Tyre might,
indeed, have been swept by the same fingers;
but its tones would have been for different and
potter ears. The Few would have praised,
where the Many now adore.
1t was the common people who appreciated
him most while living; it was they who mourn
ed him most sincerely when dead and his
popularity to-day is greatest among those who
are linked to him by their common joys and
SORROWS. BURNS, therefore, is prominently
the Poet Of the Poor-although the sweetness
of his strain, the faithfulness of his language,
and the briliancy of his wit, challenge the uni
versal admiration of mankind.
''Praise to the bard his words are driven,
Like hower-seeds to the far winds sown,
Where'er, beneath the sky of Heaven
The birds of fame have fown.n

SAD DEATH FROM INTERCHANGEABLE
have further painful facts relative to the death
of Mr.. Aaron Eames, in Upton, and the dis
covery of his body on Saturday last. The
search had been renewed that morning, on the
departure of the snow and the body was
found near the house of Luther Legg, in the
North part of the town. He was lying on his
face, with two bottles of rum for his compan-
ions. Horrible to relate, his nose and cheeks
had been eaten away by some animals of the
woods, leaving most CHASTITY spectacle. He
had fine physical organization, and enough
of mental activity, when not paralyzed by
strong drinks, to have been useful and valu.
able citizen. The circumstances of the case
were SO unequivocal, that no inquest was
deemed necessary 1t is the same sad and
oit-repeated story, and but another illustration
of the frequent yet terrible ALTERATION, rum
and ruin"
The Rev. Mr.. Ball, in his afternoon dis
course, on Sunday, made this solemn event
the subject Of some very sensible and forcibe
remarks. His text was, the "wages of sin is
DEATH" The object of the sermon was to
show, that there could be no violation of the
moral and physical laws of our being, without
retribution. Punishment might be long defer
red, but was sure and inevitable. Impunity
and sin were incompatible and impossible
The whole was kindly and admonitory, and
was listened to with great interest.
