-We have no alteration tc

note in the money market, except as to the New Orleans
banks. All of these but the Citizens' having resumed on
the 14th, their paper has much improved, though we are not
able to give a quotation. Some have supposed on the autho-
rity of letters, that two or three other banks declined re-
sumption; but the truth is, that all resolved to resume but
the Citizens' Bank.

One of the banks in this city commenced paying specie
to-day in full, and the others, though they do not announce
it, are, we believe, paying all demands actually made upon
them.—Louisville Journal.

The banks of Virginia;ill resume specie payments on the
Ist of August.

THE BOUNDARY QUESTION.
The States of Massachusetts and Maine have appointed
Commissioners, with full powers to arrange with the General
Government the question of the North Eastern Boundary ; so
that, it is to be presumed, this point in difference between
the United States and Great Britain will be satisfactorily ad-
justed—as it is not to be supposed the two States named
would have been invited to take the step they have unless
some basis of arrangement consequent upon their acqui-
escence had been previously established.
In other matters in discussion, the papers leave us entirely
in the dark as to what is doing, though the settled sentiment
of the country, it is understood as well as of Congress, is
that all will be harmonized. To such an extent indeed is the
House of Representatives pushing its confidence in uninter-
rupted peace, that it is busily engaged in cutting down army
and navy to the minimum of a peace establishment. The
plea is economy—but the wisdom of such an exercise of it
just now is said by some American authorities to be ques-
tionable.

ATTEMPTED INSURRECTION IN RHODE
ISLAND.
A menacing insurrection in one of the States. (Rhode
Island,) has quietly evaporated without bloodshed, and the
respect for law and authority, instead of receiving attaint,
has rather derived strength, from this attempt to overthrow
both. The firm countenance and conduct of the sound
people and magistrates of the State, sufficed of themselves,
to dishearten the revolters • and the certainty, that the Fe-
deral Government, as bound by the Constitution, would, if
necessary, interpose to uphold the government de facto,
nipped rebellion in the bud.
