 | Letters of J. Downing, major, Downingville militia, Second brigade, to his old friend, Mr. Dwight, of the New-York daily advertiser |  |
From the Philadelphia Gazette.
Major Downing's letter to the Cabinet proper is a document
of unusual interest. His views on the nature of the U. S. Bank
and the currency of the country develop an intimate acquaintance
with financial business. The analogy between the bank
and the Conestoga wagon is good, and the steamboat simile is
not less excellent. The Major's letters evidently increase in
interest.
