so: notwithstanding the technicalities of

I''- Bills of Credit are Bank Bills, it requires no

K independence of character to declare, that

Kards the banking privileges as well of the gon-
Kits of the State Governments. So muehso, in.

B Our intelligence from London and Liverpool is
later than the ad vices published in our
Bet. The news from Poland is most cheering.
B will be recollected that our previous accounts
fcly anticipated a general engagement between
fciwe great armies commanded by Skryanccki
pd Dithitsch. At that time the it relative po.ai-
Bpns warranted such an expectation—but that
Etpeciation has not been realised. ' Diebitsch is
