THIS System of Business now being tried as an experiment only, if successful, may be taken as an effort to infuse fresh vigor and more enterprise, into one of England’s most favored distant communities ; and English merchants may contemplate with pardonable pride and complacency the efforts made by British emigrants who go forth to make a home for themselves in a distant land without forgetting their Mother Country; reproducing with necessary modifications the Institutions which flourish so eminently amongst those left behind, anj| approximating so closely to the manner doing Business at Home.
