Dating the run on Messrs. Taylor and Lloyd's, on
Saturday, a post-chaise and four dtove up with a sea-
sonable supply of specie and Bank of England notes.
The time occupied in travelling from London was under
eight hours. A further supply has also since been re-
ceived. We are happy to say, there has not been the
slightest run on any of the Banks since Monday.
FROM THE WOLVIRHAMPTON CHRONICLE., DEC. 22.

The panic which has prevailed in the money market
of the Metropolis would have been scarcely felt in this
town or neighbourhood, but for the unfortunate stop-
page of Messrs. Gibbins, Smith, and Goode,of Bit ming-
ham, which created an excitement and alarm amongst
that part of the community who act not from discrimi-
nation but from momentary feeling. This was met here
as it ought—those who well knew the responsibility of
the Banking establishments in this town drew up a re-
solution, which received the voluntary signatures of
upwards of 400 of the principal inhabitants, copies of
which were issued early on Monday morning, and the
con,equent and natural result has been, a total allay.
went of agitation, and restoration of confidence.

NORWICH, Decegass 23.
We are sorry to be obliged to announce the stoppage of the banks
of Aleuts. T. H. and W. Day, of this city (having also a branch
at Swaffhani), which took place about five o'clock on Friday
evening. The consequence waa, that the following being market-
day, many of the country people pressed upon the other banks,
but such is the confidence of both Citizens and Agriculturists in
the county, that it was observed scarcely any persons of import-
ance joined in the " run." which was, therefore, very incon-
siderable, and the following declaration has been very numerously
signed by the merchants and traders:—
" We the undersigned having the greatest confidence in. the
banks of 'Messrs. Gurneys and Co. Messrs. Harvey. and Hudson.,
and Messrs. Thompson, Barclay, and Ives' agree to take any notes
of the abonmentinned banks that may be offered to us."
