speaks in language that can't be mistaken;

most incredulous Of the inevitable fate OF
paper currency But it seems that man, in
his rapacious desire to become suddenly
rich, not only risks his own property and
character, but is inclined to be wholly regard
less Of his neighbor's rights and welfare; re-
sorting to all conceivable means within the
penal law, for the purpose of transferring
the property Of others to his own possession,
without regard to the moral laws. And that
the last grand effort Of the wings in their
State Bank and Branches, will in few years
put the Continentals to the blush, needs ne
prophetic vision 10 foretell, other than to
fully understand the fixed and immutable
laws of Cause and Effect. Our forefathers
issued theirs in hopes Of aiding the grand
struggle for Liberty and Independence
But at the present, there is no such inde-
psndencs, no necessity whatever, other, than
in accordance with the standing whig argu-
ment, that "banks enable men TO make mon.
ey," and this, in truth, is generally false
as banks only enable few TO accumulate no
make, what the many have earned. Ane
that they often do this by fraud and villain!
