A Noble Son.
The Portsmouth Journal rslates that Clement March, Esq., a son of Joseph W. March of Greenland, N. IL, is paying the debts of his father, who died fifteen years ago. The estate was administered upon as insolvent,and demands amounting to thirteen thousand dollars were approved by the Commissioners. 7'o meet these there were less than three thousand dollars, and the estate was settled in 1815. The son now honors his father’s memory by coining forward and spending ten thousand dollars in paying his father’s old creditors in full—a shining example of magnanimity and filial respect.
