er beg leg leave to add that when this class was IS
sued few persons if any, anticipated in the least the
late panic in the money mark ct which has almost para
lyzcd every kind of business, and has caused such SIN
gular and unprecedented stagnation in trade. The
distress of capitalists and moned institutions has not
been confined to any single state in our contederacy
but has been severely felt from one extremity OF the
country the other and has been general in several OF
the Oldest and wealthiest foreign countries And it
will be considered matter of surprise, that the
same causes which have induced recently the post
the drawing OF an important lottery should
have similar effect OH ofmuch greater magnitude
But it is hoped that happy change for these reverses
has already commenced, and that all classes of ct
zens in every part of the Union will participate in
the returning tide of prosperity. The scheme now Of
