Another New Discovery.
After severe 1 years of a veiy good
natured, loose way uf doing business,
I discover, that 1 owe more persons,
than 1 dou’t owe, and that, my credit*
ors are signifying that 1 must settle,
or hunt uew friends. And as I am
too poor to move, and furthermore
discover, that 1 am brought face to
face with I’/ fact, “that something
must be did,’* 1 therefore make an
appeal to those who owe me,—espec
ially lo those who have tor several
cars remained in arrears. 1 feel fuly
greatful for the patronage of the dedr
public,and If we could ail now square
up,I feel that I should be glad enough
to treat all round, and then like’ a
clever fellow go along and have tfnft
fun of the credit business, ail erttr
again.
I hope this will not be taken Hi a
joke, and 1 intend to so apply myself
to the subject, as that no such Mis
takes will bu made.
Bo after dog-days, and carap-’Ateftt-
ingH are over, 1 shall have an ear f
response. JOHN WALKER.
