have been much gratified to perceive by this
mornings Herald, that the attention OF your acute
mind was directed to the frauds being perpetrated
on the public by this latest OF humbugs, which, on
examination, will be found not TO have been got up
so much by commission merchants for the benefit
of receiving the return premiums, as by families
having manrais sujft to pension on the public-a
broken-down businessman, or politician, to be pro-
vided for, or peculator, who, having even broken
down three companies before, is determined to
have living and salary in some easy way. If
merchants interested will emily look back, and in
quire or recolect who are the managers, the tale
will soon be told. Who that has done business
down town can forget the Triton, and who were its
managersl To come home to the question, the
called Trustees OF at least company are, in ef-
feet, no Trustees, as the most responsible amongst
them say their names have been put down without
their consent, and others say they only allowed
their names to be used to give the poor devils
sartbut no note of theirs has been among the cap
ital." The charters having been obbied through at
Albany by specuator he has only to make the Of
fer to a HARD cAsE' of good family, and ne can
get sufficient names for Trustees. The $lOO,OW
capital is thus made up by notes OF no value. Then
the capital in reality consists OF the office furniture


and the premiums as they come IN, will answer for
salaries the overplus to pay losses which, coming
too quickly, can be easily ltigated by cunning
lawyer, who, of course, ought to be Director and
deeply in the plot. Can the public see real pic
ture EXPLOSION.
