The Banking (Question, from fhc course that was pursued last of the General Assembly, "will, in all probability, engross a large portion of the time the next Session.

Look to the particular nature i' Cotton's character!

Aaron before th public as one of my informers this is false. 1 only called on Col.

Aaron to prove that he heard the statement from Rakestraw's own mouth, but 1 said, at the same time, that Col. Aaron was not my informer of what 1 wrote. My information on this subject was a general report about Salisbury and Milton: audi refer all, who have a desire to be particularly informed on the subject, to Mr. Henry Clay, of Milton, who will, no doubt, from his own knowledge, state more than I have written. He says it indelicate to call on Col.

Aaron in this case 1 have no means of knowing what his standard of delicacy is but I know he called upon his own wife and children, on the day he declared himself, as witnesses to prove his innocence 1. He says I will loose but little time before I prcfei other groundless charges. This reminds rne of an unprincipled, eye, time-eer-vaiit, "who is forever flinching for fear of the lash or if he wishes to banter, I cau add yet more to the catalogue of his crimes: He loaned John Morehead, Esq. when in great distress, a sum of money, at an enormous percentage, and took a deed of trust on a tract of land lying on Wolf bland.

Morehead obtained Bethell's Bond from Lenox, which, being due, it was thought to be sullicient to To the People of Rofkingham County.

I therefore think, and have ever thought it good policy if our Legislature were to establish a Bank on the credit or faith of the State altogether, and have it under the immediate control of the Legislative and executive power. I have ever, in writing and speaking of General Bethel, boldly asserted that he was more celebrated for falsehood, and downright LtEiNo any man in the Community. How far I may fall short of proving this fact upon him, out of his last Circular, I leave the reader to judge. He states that he had formed a resolution to pay no attention to any thing I might write or speak and that, hitherto, he had, dcclineiHaking any notice of my publication of the 5(h March.
