Extract Of a letter from Hon. ARUard FILLMORE
81 have read it (Merchants' Magazine) with good
deal of attention. and have hesitation saying that

ever published. To the merchant 1t seems quite indis-
pensable and to the statesman general ior-
nation almost equally desirable 1t is grand repository
Of useful facts and information, which be found
where SO well dgesed and accessible these num-
bers only regret that do not the whole work"
