civcd in this city, by the way of New V'ork, 



contain little matter of interest. The nev

 j which were taken from the paunch of an Ox, 

 sUuightored a few months since in East Sudbury,-

 appeared otherwise than well, and made excellent 

 beef. [Concord Paper.]

 by the vast increase of the Venetian Commerce, 

 induced payments by transfers, ' or by writing oif 

 tiie sum to be paid from the account of the payer 

 to the receiver, without the trouble and inconve-

 thus interested in mutual exchanges, obtained a

 tlieir joint concerns and thus produced the bank of 

 Venice, the first bank ever established in the world.
