not surprising TO those who have known some Of the
recent details Of his behaviour in that capacity Bot
that he should have had the audacy TO publish the fore

We have had the pleasure OF visiting Poughkeepsie

basis Of Its malicious libel.
The correspondent OF the Evening Post commences
with statement of the organization Of all the banks and
other interpretations at Poughkeepse and then follows

The list of banks contains the Duchess County Bank,

is vet director of that bank and has connection
with either Of the others, and probably never entered
either OF them. Here then is truth to tro hes,

add here, that James Hooker tho principal man in the
direction Of the Farmers and Manufacturers Bank,
