who have on this trying occasion, and not
withstanding the great and general pres
sure of the times, acted in the most liberal
and handsome manner towards US, making
us further voluntary advance Of ESQ, 900,
we we're enabled to resume our payments

our debts by 100000; and on these
grounds il is that we feel fully warranted
in soliciting continuance OF that confidence

hitherto honored US.
Although not The smallest restrictions are
imposed upon our operations, yet We con-
slider ourselves 10 honor bound not to en-

have reduced our affairs within the scope
and management Of our own capital, and
we are, on this account, under the necessi-

gagements. We trust however, that the ar
engagements we are making for the RAPID Ii
qnidaiion Of our pending concerns, will in
short time be carried into full effect, and
enable US to enteragain into active cores

We have great pleasure in adding that
our temporary suspension has not in the
least affected our friends, Messrs. Ceilings

to give them every claim to the utmost con-
fidence of their numerous friends. Refer

subject, we have the honor to be, Sir,
