ever trusted-and we had such an opinion of his
honesty and integrity, that we would have trusted

eloquent letters the necessity of not paving his
debts to us-had the sublime GOODNESS to come to
New York with his "pocket full of rocks"-to en-
ter our office, and to demonstrate with us for the
unheard OF impudence of refusing to give him more
credit He even wanted to make a bargain-and
to buy our agency in future, with the proceeds of
our own property. He has brother in business in
White Plains, in this State, who actually wrote
very strong letter demonstrating with us for refusing
to increase his debt.
In few days, we shall publish in a brochure the
correspondence of David Mitchell on this new and
curious case ofprivate reputation. 1t will be fit
companion for the pamphlet of iBoorman & Johns

lists OF Bankrupts, issued for the information and
