UNITED STATES' BANK.—An elaborate statement has
lately been prepared showing the condition of all the
banks in the United States, their capital and liabilities,
both in the shape of circulation and discounts, and their
stocks of specie. From this it appears that the total
number of establishments is 1,059, of which 312 belong
to the State of New York. There are also 149 branches.
Their total circulation at the commencement of the pre-
sent year seems to have been equal to 41,000,0001.,
while their specie was a little above 10,000,000/. Their
deposits amounted to 37,000,0001., making their total
liabilities 78,000,0001. Although the bullion held against
their circulation is only one-fourth, while the standard
proportion in this country under the old system used to
be regarded as one-third, it is probably fully equal to
the amount usually retained. An important considera-
tion with reference to this point is, that the Govern-
ment hold a total of nearly 6,000,000/. sterling, which,
being locked up in their own vaults and unrepresented
by paper of any kind, is as valueless for all the imme-
diate purposes of commerce as if it were at the bottom
of the sea. It is also believed that there is more gold
and silver in circulation among the people than at any
previous period.
ST. PAUL'S.—The removal of the hoarding at the end
of Cannon-street has enabled the passers-by to see St.
Paul's Cathedral as it was never before seen, and has
shown what we have often spoken of—the unequalled
beauty of its outline. In aid of the endeavour which is
being made to keep the plot of ground at the end of
Cannon-street open (and we are forced, by the remarks
of one or two of the speakers at the Institute the other
night to remind them that it was in our pages the im-
portance of effecting this was first pointed out), we
would once more appeal to the corporation and to the
metropolis generally. The view of St. Paul's Cathedral,

shall know where we are----what we are aiming at—and
what we have to do. At present the public is entirely
in the dark on these points. We are like children look-
ing out of a window, who expect some procession, of
some sort or other, at some time or other, to pass by.
We are looking out every day for news from the Black
Sea, from the Baltic, from the Danube. What, if we
hear to-morrow that Sebastopol is battered down ? To
what previously defined object will this be a means or a
step ? We know not, but we are entitled to know, and
we want to learn.
We hope the cluntry will insist on knowing, and at
once. It is understood that the session will certainly
not extend beyond the latter end of next month. The
houses ought not to separate until we ascertain in a pre-
cise and definite manner whether or not it is meant that
we should accept a peace thatshall leave Russia the power
to pursue the course she has taken systematically for the
last hundred years. If the ministry is prepared to accept a
peace having this character, and the nation acquiesces in
its decision, we have nothing further to say. If, on the
contrary, it is not so prepared, then the sooner France
and England proclaim the independence of Poland, and
the restoration of Finland to Sweden' the less of our
blood shall we shed, and the sooner will a certain and per-
manent peace be established, bottomed on the only sure
ground. Thus alone can the moral sense of the European
mind find that repose and satisfaction, which protocols,
treaties, congresses, and holy alliances can never give.—
