CONVENTION OF BANKS.

We hail with unmingled satisfaction, the
following movements of the banks in the
city of New York. 1t is we sincerity trust
the prelude to the resumption ofspcie pay
ments. The Banks are bound by every
consideration, to adopt every measure
which may lead to this consummaiion, so
much to be desired. If they pursue a
different course, they viii be withered by
the frown Of public indignation. The
force of the Legislative will-the force and
majesty Of the laws, will be directed against
them. 1t is not only their duty, bit it is
their interest 10 pursue the most efficient
MEASURES for resumption. 1t is with them
case, of life and of death.
Let them meet--designate some certain
day for the resumpton-and the People
will become gradually satisfied. Public
clamor viii abate-Confdenc will be re-
stored. Political dissensions will cease.
and some general defnitve system be de.
liberately adopted, for the administration of
our Federal finances. The decision will be
made without passion and upon due CAL
culation of the consequences of tho meas
ure.
The Convention .ofthe Banks may effect
great deal for restoration of specie pay
ments. The relief acts of the last Extra
Session Of Congress may also contribute to
the same event. If carried out in the
spirit in which they were passed, they will
facilitate the resumption. We mean espe-
cially the two acts for the relief of the De-
posite Banks, and for the issue of Treasu-
ry notes. 1t will ease off the people, with.
out sacrificing in any degree the funds
and interest ofthe Government, TO the ben
eft Of the Banks.-But it is not the Banks,
whose interests are TO be consulted.-It is
the relief of the people, who are indebted
to the Banks, or who use their paper for
circulating medium, which is the great
object TO be attained. We trust that the
following sentiment from the Globe may
be carried out by the Convention of the
Banks
eve are happy TO see evidences of re-
turning sanity and healthy action in the
commercial community. We hope the
Banks will no longer stand in their present
false position towards the country and its
laws, but will lose no time, even at the sac
rifce Of the enormous gains of the two last
years, TO resume the payment oftheir obi
cations.
