FULTON BANK.—The run upon this institution yester.;-
day Was `. prodigious, but every thing was promptly met,.
and to-day all is quiet. We passed the bank since twelve.
o'clock, and there was nobody at the doors.
THE FRANKLIN BANK.---There are so-many - coin,
panics bearing the excellent name of Franklin, such as the

holders of bills came in, they found such lots upon the
counters, and boxes opening, that most of them, after tit

12 o'clock there were no persons there, and the extra
clerks were standing idle. It was quite amusing to tit
and watch the holders of bills—to see the long frightened
visages as they came in, relaxing into a smile as theflook-
ed upon the piles of specie, pocketed their bills egani,end
marched out. So much for our rambles among the banks
and brokers to-day.
The.Tridesmen's Bank, it is presumed, will recom-
