The above extracts undoubtedly from
the modest penof MIR. Dallas himself and
it's difficult to determine whether it is
most remarkable for its want Of truth or
its alatcbless impudence. IL Mr.. Dallas
had been in league with our brokers, he
could not have pursueda course more for
their interest. Neither can those cap
itaIists complain who are DESTROYS of be-
coaing possessed of stock ct low rate.

No lit is the people at large who have
most reason to complain. Look at the
