I 10 believe that ms u'tcrIor PROJECTS
and intentions, which ! thus freely
ayow, will not lesson the cordially
with which the first and more mme.
diate object Of my mission to your
shores will be received. The land
now covered with the descendants
81 the puritan Pilgrim Fathers, and
the offspring Of those noble and
unyieldug spirits, who, fleeing 10 the
uncIeared wilderness as refuge from
tyranny and persecution, found in IFS
primeyal forests the liberty they in
vain sought for in their native homes
and whose posterity, while filing these
forests with cities, and covering the
wiIds with civilization and religion,
have never yet forgotten those lessons
of Freedom which their ancestors
first taught by their practical prlva-
tons and sniieri u 5, an, :.a,en sealed 4
cemented by their blood;- such land
is not likely to refuse its shelter to
one whose past history may give him
some claim to the sympathy Of It's
possessors, whose present labors may
be productive of intellectual grailiica-
ton to themselves, and whose future
undertakings, ii blessed By Divine
Providence, may sow the seeds, at
least, of benefit to other widely scat
tered regions Of the earth.
To you, then, the People Of Amer
lea, frankly submit this appeal: and
at your hands doubt not shall ex'
perience that cordial and friendly re-
ception which may smooth the rug
! gedness of a Pilgrims path and soothc
the pillow Of an Exile's repose.'
FRAUDS or BANK OFFICERS IN Bos
roN.-The investigation into the a.
fairs Of the Boston Banks by the Leg
islature Of Massachusetts has RESULTED
in the disclosure OF the most stupen
dous acts OF perjury, fraud and swim
ding by some Of the officers Of til
banks. The cashier of the Ffankli
Bank, Mr.. Hathornc, and the teller {
7 the North Bank, Nj. White, have al
: sconded. The speculations, whic
: Bank favoritlsm engendered, have a
7 ready produced n great Iaxity Of MOI
r ais all over the country. Men sect
/ to have brought themselves to thinl
e that if they obtained money, the NEAR
q and the mode were matters of indl
a ference. The examination OF tt
u Banks all over the United States, :
e far as that examination has yet e,
'i tended, shows an extraordinary pc
al ton of bank means in the hands
te bank directors and other bank officer
IS 1t must now be obvious that CORFU
a. ton has made rapid progress with
lie the last few years; and tho people
81 whom, and Tor whose benefit the
10 corporations have been chartered, oy
o. it TO themselves and the country,
&c institute the most rigid scrutiny in
ms their condition and management. Y
'ur do not see that the public money wot
be any more secure in the hands
for such men than in Mr.. Van Burc

Try be released from the system of spe,
