The whole matter, hativever, contains a lesson of wisdom which, it is to be hoped, will not be without an impression upon the public mind, and we may at least say, that the assertion of the *Roman, Consul,' that men's promises and ,perfoi mantes sel; dom correspond with each other, has re ceived - another striking. vertfication,—.
