666. BANK (U. S.), Dividends of.—
The
bank has just notified its proprietors that
they may call for a dividend of ten per cent.
on their capital for the last six months. This
makes a profit of twenty-six per cent. per annum.
Agriculture, commerce, and everything
useful must be neglected, when the useless
employment of money is so much more
lucrative.—
