DEING thoroughly convinced Of the
Dimpolicy of contracting debts, and
of the impracticability of discharging
(at all times)the amount of them, have
determined to desist from that slaUish
practice in future: Hence it is, that all
persons are required not to credit the
subscriber to the value Of even soIita-

they will not only much oblige me, but
serve their own interest--a point ever
tobe attained. To those who may incau-
tiously suffer their feelings to prevail il
may be proper TO hint, in word, that
from this date, l will not hold myself
responsible for the payment Of any debt
which may have the misfortune to con-
