The official mind in Prussia seems to be

the policy pursued hitherto with regard TO

happens in Polish Silesia is seemingly
somewhat as follows: With the liberal
sums received from the Prussan govern

Polish proprietors HQuidate their debts
and devote the balance TO founding bank
ing establishments in the towns. IN which
they carry on a lucrative business by ad-
vancing money at reasonable rates CT in
