that the Bank IS a monopoly; ms if the peo- !
pie had forgotten that when the Bank was
chartered, it was with the greatest difficult

scribe for the stock, and that when the re-
turns of subscriptions from different sec

deficiency of more than two millions of dol

few other en,erprising citizens of Philadel-
phia, would probably never have been taken

ment, instea! of monopolizing profit, the
bank was suffering severe losses and the
stock deprecatng and it is but within the
last few years that the pro2rietors have re-
ceived any income from the capital they
had invested, and the Secretary of the
Treasury is aware if we are not misinform-
ed, that the dividends do not exceed five per
rent. for the whole period. Why, then,

looked for manner. an daahl16aif ee o@neo' by
a Mr.. Doran, on the Hill opposite the city,
lately took fire, and in order to allay it, it
was stopped close at the mouth. On
Wednesday last, however, it was opened
and Mr.. Doran, along with two GOLFERS. en-
tered the pits with lights in their hands.
They had not proceeded far before their
lights simultaneously went out, an oppres-
siyeness at the same time seized them all.
Mr.. Doran being nearest the mouth of the
pit, with difficulty was enabled to return.
The other two sank in the pit, overcome by
the smothering and poisonous influence Of
the foul air, which had accumulated while
the pit was closed. Mr. M'Cord, a wagon
er, entered to rescue the sufferers if posi-
Bile, as soon as Mr.. Doran gave intelligence
OF their situation, hut when he reached
them, he too was seized with the same OPP
pressiveness, and endeavored to retIeat-
bringing one Of them with him. In spite of
all his efforts, he sank down with his bur
den near the mouth of the pit, and was only
saved BY the exertions OF some persons who
hastily pulled him out. The two men who
entered with Mr.. Doran, when taken out
were dead. Mr.. M'Cord and Mr.. Doran
barely escaped with their lives.
