Tlia gentleman's argument*, like hi* wit, if

We regretted thi* doubly—first for the foci J

Tsppnn is held by tbe New York public—
and we are perfectly assured that ninety nine
out of a hundred of the merchants asreniblrd

ings of our.ine-chants. regarded Mr. Tap-

pertinent intrusion. But tha faet of hi* ap

It wwuld serve to gi**e color to the dativ tni«-

Whigs, ami seeks to identify the Whigs with

From the Boston Statesman.
The Providence Merchants have taken bus
pension the coolest of any body. They talk
it right out that they suspend in order to
make money by it. That is, they have got
debts due them in Philadelphia, and they
owe debt* there. If tbey take Philadelphia
currency for these debt* and pay what they
owe in good currency, they lose five per cent.
To save this difference they violate every
obligation of homr and honesty, aod refuse
to pay their own debts. Nor do they stop
here. After depreciating their own currency ,
they set ro work to make a brokerage on it
out of Boston and New York who continue
to be houest enough to pay their debts.
Thus they make five or ten per cent, by their
voluntary depreciation, iu refusing to pay
what they owe, while they sell what is owed
to them in Bosom and New York at 5 per
ceur. p.emiunj. In the meau time the banks
are getting six per cent, interest on every dul
ler of their irredeemable bills.
