This sel- dom. lasts long. Unless some unlooked for turn in affairs come—oi‘ the victim has the courage to out the Gordian knot, by getting rid of the house almost before he has livedin it.—momentary difficul- ties come to a crisis. The grand house and the extra furniture and the high liv- ing have actually destroyed his credit, :and failure speedily follpwes What tort of greeting a debtor gete from his credi- toes, when he calls thent together for -the purpose of offering a composition .0n making an assigurn.ent, most of our read - era can sarmise. He finds, to his aston- ishment, that his creditors had been watching his upward progress with a singular amount of keen observation.. They knew how many people there were at his last grand. party, and could tell him, within 0, few dollars, how muth it cost, and how mac,h they were going to lose by it. They could remember per- fectly. the day when he began td drive his little carriage,and when the " mail" was put into livery. He hears lectures on economy as eloquent as were ever de- livered M the Music Hall, and enforced by most homely personal examples and warnings. . He finds that his. creditors have calculated exaCtly how much he could afford to ,spend, considering his capital and resources, and that they have been making mental memorearda about him for months back. Even his wife's last new shawl or seal .skin jacket is brought up to tornient hint. And cer- tainly he is to be pitied. here, for he did remonstrate when it was bought. But Itis remotetrances wiliro over -ruled with the clever, reasoning: " If you . have your little indulgences, I must have mine.. You built this house, you 'fide down to business every morning, it is surely a pitiful business if year wife can't indulge her fancy a little, too:" And now he has this thrown ia hie teeth by his creditors ! Creditors are generally over indulgent. but occasionally they do get savage with i a debtor who has been makine "a dash." ,and has " come to grief" by extrava- •gance. And it is certainly provoking .for a plodding, economical merchant to be asked. to accept ao cents on the dol- lar from a man who never was worth a tenth what he is, but who, nevertheless, has lived in a style of luxury that he neve er dreamed of. There can be no wonder that creditors give some very sound, wholesome advice under such eireum- _stances. - Young inerefiants can never sufficient- ly remember that capital grow. slowly ;at the beginning, end that a style of ex- penditure which will be borne easily af- ter 20 years.' of accumulation, would be absolutely ininout if adopted now. The tendency of the times, as we have seid, is .-be luxury and expenditure. Men -always have occasion to be on their guard against something or other. And those who have liabilities, and. depend - on credit, will do well to be particularly on their guard here-aeconomy aud good credit, Gee may say—walk arm in arm. 1st does it man good when his creditors .observe what a little bit of a cottage his debtor lives in, and. that he is not asham- ed to be seen with the .aust and soil of business upon him; but let ta man be- ware of kid gloves and patent leather boots and the carriage, until he has got into suck a position as to be independent of credit altogether. When he can ,buy everything for cash and- carryon his business without discoantieg, he may live in a palace if he likes, and nobody will have reason to find fault. But men have generally a long road to travel be - fere they reach that elevation, and we ma Y depend upot it that every yard of that road is paved with carefulness and .economy.—Xonetary Ilintes. . .• • , The Vote op. Anaitesty.. The vote on the anmesty resolution of the Government, is, perhaps, as impor- , tiat a one as will be taken during the sessios. We are not sure that the Op- , position e-xpeeted to carry the day against the Ministry, lent they. certainly expected to make a good show on the occasion. The total: strength of the Op- position on this -question would include 'those opposed to amnesty altogether, like Mr. Bowen; those in favor .of un- conditional amnesty, -like Mr. Molisseati; and those who were hostile to 4 mere n form on "constitutional" grounds, like. Sir John. Such a union of forets, hos- tile to each, other, in a coalmen laostility i to the Government, mightle have , en ex- pected to produce a. moderat -sized phalauX, but it did not.
