large amount of its issues will be post
notes, according to the act Of the
Legislature, bearing interest at the
rate of five percentum. The balance
Will be a quantity Of small notes
redeemabie with specie on demand
This will certainly satisfy an nnpor-
tant desideratum, which has long been
seriously felt. Since the general sus-
pension st spring, we have all found
much. difficulty in obtaining sufficient
specie even to pay our postage. The
issue Of redeemable paper by this
Bank will undoubtedly be sufficient to
obviate this difficulty.
We do not, by any means, profess
to be the advocates of banks; nor do
we hesitate in declaring our decided
opposition TO flooding the country
with irredecmable bank paper. Still,
so far as we are acquainted with the
condition of this infant institution. its
plans and objects, aad in view of the
industry, enterprise and perseverance
hitherto pursued by its officers, we
must say that it possesses peculiar
claims TO public confidence. We
have every assurance that its issues
will be so regulated, that it will be at
all times capable and ready to meet
its liabilities. 1t has now what is
equal to cash capital of $4,000
having Yesterday received $4,000 in
specie, and having in New Orleans
an amount of cotton valued at $4,000.
With these means at command. and its
capabilities still increasing, it must,
ere long, with iudicious management.
obtain a creditable standing for itself,
md be capable of afording important
benefits TO the community.
While on this subject, we would
SUGGESTION the consideration of orr Lee
sisIature, the prop&ty Of adopting
ome course by which all the Banks Of
he State would be placed upon a par,
:, to their privileges and iiabllties.
The best method would undoubtedly

A-D Uriel Spencer, Justice of the Peace of
York Township, in Lucas County, we the un-
dersigned, do certify, that we have viewed
and appraised a certain stray mare, taken up
by Elisha Williams of said township, and find
the same to be dark bay, having small scar
on her right thigh, a saddle gall on her back
with some white hairs, a small spot of white
on her left side, a scattering of white hairs on
her sides, and an irregularity or protrusion in
the bone of her nose, and that said mare is
fourteen and half hands high, supposed to be
twelve years old, and we do appraise said
mare at thirty seven and half dollars.

OPINIONS ABRoAD.-The Boston Mer-

race on the Hudson, between the High
lander and North America, says:
ave labor under an impression that
public opinion, expressed in variety OF
ways, had put stop to the abominable
practice of racing in steamboats, on that
river-and that persons could travel in
those splendid packets, without any great
danger of being blowed sky high"
We regret that we were in an error,
and wish that law could be enacted,
by which any person covicted of runn-
ing race, and using an extraordinary
power of steam-while having passen-
gers on board. should be sent to the
state prison for term Of years. If they
wish to risk their own worthless lives,
let them do it--but prevent their spor-
ting with the lives of others.

than 700. All this is good news, and
we rejoice with these hardy and indus
