May he give nothing away, because he is

These are serious questions OF con
science, | think, and not always easy to be
settled.
Indeed there IL no general rule, applica-
BILE TO all cases, by which they can be set

some families will need more aud some

not safe for rich man to GO in laying mp

for them to have thousands Of Il cast into
the sea, than TO have 1t all laid up for them.
IL is proverbia1 hat very few rich mems

They ought TO succeed n great deal better.
And why do they not The reason Is too
apparent not to be known and read of all
men. Their money brings along with IL
temptations to idleness, extravaganza,
| dissipation, and other kindred vices, which
| but few of them can resist. Poor human
nature IL too weak to endure such an or
deal. The sad experience Of ages and gen
erations prove IL.
A rich father might just about as well
charge his executors to load boat down

his sons aboard, and launch her upon the
broad Atlantic without compass or rudder,
as to leave his hundreds Of thousands to

that he Is exposing them to ruinoas temp

no reason to expect they will resist. And
yet, after all, how many are INJECTING this

lay up something tor their children, they
are not bound-they kdps no right, TO lay
up so much as will, in all human probili-
", do them immeasursbly more harm

From UTAH.-.Captain Gibson
passed through this city on Saturday,
on his way to Washington, as bearer
of important dispatches from Utah to
the General Government. We IN
derstand these dispatches embrace
propositions from Brigham Young to

States, the saints to evacuate the
Territory and remove to some point
on the Pacific coast, either in the
British possessions or within the
boundaries of the United States,
where they will establish a new home
for themselves and followers. There
is no doubt that Brigham Young is

last term of Gen. Jackson's Admins
tralion the entire debt of the United
States was paid of, and the large
surplus remaining in the Treasury
was deposited with the States in the
ratio of their representation in Con
gress. At the close Of the Mexican
war. and after the S5,000,000 had
been paid to Mexico for California,
Arizona and New Mexico, the entire
public debt was $7s,000,000. The
increased business Of the country from
1850 to 1857 increased the revenues
of the country TO such an extent that,
after paying the current expenses OF
the Government, this debt was redu.
ced to $25, OOO,0 900. In 1857 came
the great panic or reaction in business,
which reduced the imports to an ex-
tent that the revenues therefrom were
insufficient to meet current expenses,
and the Government have been obi
ged to borrow, in all up to the present
time. $4,000, This, added to
the SOS, 900, 900 of the war debt yet
unpaid, makes the aggregate of our
