WE have concluded, that as for the last
w month we have refused every thing IN
the shape of money except specie, or the notes
of specie paying banks, for our goods, our
friends and customers are entitled to some ex
PLANTATION for such an unusual proceeding
While our Books are on our shelves we feel
safe so far as concerns the payment of the
debts which we incurred m the purchase of
these Books. for this reason, that they may be
returned TO our creditors at any time, and cred
1t received for them: if we exchange them for
paper which is only worth half IFS nominal val
ne, we loose by the trade, although we may re-
celve 100 per cent. more than the originas
cost, for we are then minus the expense and
interest on the amount of said property: be-
sides, not having the wherewith TO nav for our
"bread and BUTTER" which, contrary to the
opinions of some, we hold to be Indispensable.
To the oft repeated question, awhy do YOU not
take the currency at its discount !" we an
swer that we do not keep sharing Shop.
We pledge ourselves coGseientiously to re-
duce our prices to a consistent scale with the
value of the money received, which VIII con-
tinue to be par funds IN all cases. In settling
accounts We shall endeavor to make the pro-
per discount on all articles which may have
been overcharged on the score of deprecated
currency. So mote 1t be.
