Of specie paying banks, for our goods, our

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 in the purchase of
tn sc hooks, for this reason, that they may be
returned to our creditors at any time, and cred
it 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-
ceive 100 per cent. more than the original
cost, for we are then minus the expense and
interest on the amount Of said property; be-
sides, not having The wherewith to pay for our
bread and butter" which, contrary to the
| opinions of some, we hold to be indispensable.
To the oft repeated question, "why do you not
take the currency at its discount !" we an
swer that we do not keep sharing shop.
We pledge ourselves conscientiously to re-
duce our prices to consistent scale with the
value Of the money received which will con-
tinue to be par funds IN all cases. In settling

per discount on all articles which may have
