"^'^^- Gilfxirt's works on Banking have attained a ju$i celehrity. Plain and practical, they are ssttnblo 

 w the character and tha position of the writer, and lo the wants and inclinationa of the banking and 

 mercantile commuiiity, for whom they aro chiefly intended. They are not, however, without much in- 

 terest fiir every inquiring mind, while for statesmen and political eeonomuts they are sources of much 

 nseftti and even indispensable information. The present work treats of banking a:* an art, and its menta 

 nave already been recognized by the public. The principal chafitcierislic ofMr Gilbari's twok is, prac- 

 iscal common sense, a due subordination of all the parts of the auhject, so that none has an uwiue prom- 

 ™nce: which, bein* joined with a perspicuous stvle. accounts for the i^vor his works have Jdserv*^!/
