this practice is never resorted to except
by banks which are either too weak or
have too little credit, 10 issue their notes
at home; their only object in sendingthei

to avoid it's early, and perhaps ultimate
redemption. Our advice 10 our readers
is to refuse all such currency, and to re

and credit Of which they are acquainted
