1t is with profound pleasure that we an
nounce that James ii. Lucas, Esq, the head
of the banking house of James III. Lucas d
Co.. will, to morrow. hold meeting of his
friends. and arrange for the immediate issue
o. certified chicks for all the deposits of this
community in that banking lsouse. And
these checks will bear interest at the rate of
ten per cent per annum, from Date until paid.
And not only SO, but these checks will be
secured by mortgage on millions of dol
lars of real estate in the city of St. Louis
His certified checks, bearing ten per cent,
and secured, as he with his princely fortune
of four millions Of dollars can, will be hailed
IA better than gold, even by the suffering,
and they will be as current in paying debts
as tire bills of. The bank of the State of Mis-
souri,. What other banker will initiate this
noble example!
The Democrat protests against the
issue Of these checks, and insists that
they will depreciate in value and the
loss will fall upon the faboring classes.
