HoARDNe.--Among the foreigners a.
mong us there are many who have con-
siderable sums in coin, which they prefer
tokeep on hand without income, to put
ting it out of their hands on any terms.
They willnot even trust the Banks. This
disposition arises partly from ignorance,
and partly from worse opinion of men
than it is necessary to entertain in this
country. Our own citizens are general
ly too intelligent, too confident in the re-
sources other country, and too enterpri-
sing withal to let their money lie rusting
in the insecurity Of an old chest. There
is foreigner, in business, near us, who
we happen to know has had about three
thousands dollars in coin, which he has
kept on hand SO long, that the papers in
which it is rolled up have become rot
ten. He might have sold it for ten or
twelve per cent. premium, but he had
no confidence in any thing but the silver.
So he doats on it, and stays at home on
Sunday to count it, and congratulates
himself that he has at least so much safe.
while in truth it is much less safe than
it would be standing to his credit as a
bank deposit, and really chains him to
the spot as fast as if he were fastened to
it by a chain around his ancle.-N Y.
