loss, and that by accepting Mr.. Fishers pro-
position to receive interest On their deposits,
and give him little time. be paying as rap
idly as he is able, they viii get their money
sooner and much more certainly, than by
pressing hin, to the wall.
The difficulty with Mr.. T. appears 10 be
that the bulk Of his property consists Of
real estate, upon the sales OF which he de-
pended somewha: 10 meet his accommodating
Liabilities But the season has been SO back

consequence so stringent, that he was una
bic TO effect TIE sales he could otherwise
reasonably have counted upon, and finds
himself momentariiy embarrassed. That his
property, if he is allowed time TO husband
it in such way Is TO bring anything like
rs real value, is doutly sufficient to pay ali
his debts, no one who has any knowledge OF
his affairs appears 10 doubt fer moment.
The building lately occupied by Mr. Eis,-

NAN, Bankers, who had hitherto occupied
rooms in Nattinger's Block. They propose
TO continue the banking business On their

to the rooms vacated by True & Waterman.
