Missouri Loan C61ce.-yve learn that
the legislature Of Missouri has determin-
ed to limit the further issue of oan-office
certificates to loans to individuals for spe-
citic purposes only-such as, the cs,a-
blishment of iron manufactories, salt
works, steam mills, sc. Loans from a
state to its citizens, appropriated to such
objects, will be permanent benefit to
the country; and only in this way can
they be considered as affording relief to
an embarrassed community. The effect
Of the loans from our State Bank amply
proves this. Combining our observations
to this district, we find that between
eighty and ninety thousand dollars have
been loancd to upward of eight hundred
individuals, in equal sums, the greater
Of whom, instead Of paying their honest
debts, (lf we may judge from those in
debted al this officc) have squandered
their money Encompasses worse than use
