THE PHILADELPHIA BANKS.

For the information of our friends at distance,
we may state that not doubt exists in the minds of
the community, as to the entire solvency of all these
institutions. They have doubt suffered some
what by the failure of some of their customers but
they are all well managed, and under the control of
skllful and experienced fnanciers and enjoy the un-
bounded confidence of our citizens IL il shall be
determined on the part of the New York or any
other banks to suspend specie paymentstcnporarily

viii be the last to resort to such remedy, although
from present appearances, it is our conviction that
no such remedy will at any time be rendered neces-
sary for them. We believe it is an admitted fact
that the amount of specie in volts at this time, is
larger than at any former period for number of
years.-BickneiF8 Reporter.

SATURDAY, May 6, 1897.

The committee appointed to report rules
for the regulation of the convention, sub
mitted great number, which after much
discussion and various amendments were
adopted.
The following just and highly merited
tribute of respect to the memory of DAN
CALDWELL, decd, was delivered in the re-
form Convention, by e. BANKS, Esq of
Mifflin on the Sd inst:
Mr.. PREsIDENT:-Before proceeding to
the business of the Convention this morn
ing, allow me to remark, that although
there is a very full attendance of the dele
gates elected by the people on the 4th of
November last, to prepare and propose a.
mendments to the constitution of the state,
there is one absent, and lOhO neUer can be
here.
One who, on the day of the election
which made you sir, and every gentleman
on this floor, with one exception, (the gem
teman who fills his place. members of
this Convention, had as fair prospect of
being here, as any one now present. One
who could not have been detained "by
light and trivial causes" from being here
this day, ifip being, but who submissively
bowing to the will of O,nnipOtence, said as
has relatives and friends have and should
individually say in relation to his loss, "the
will of my God be done.' will be un-
dcrstood to mean Dan Caldwell, of Union
county.

Caldwell, hut l may be allowed TO state,

THE NEW SCHEME.

There is, we doubt not, a settled deter
mination on the part of Mr.. Biddle, and
other leading individuals connected with the
United States Bank, to procure, if possible,
re-charter of that institution by congress.
To this desire may be traced, in a great
measure, the cause of the pressure which is
now so generally complained of in our
business cities-because, part of the plan
is, so to unsettle and derange all business
regulations, as to induce the belief, on the
minds of the people, that prosperous state
OF affairs cannot again exist, until new
National Bank shall have been established.
So confident are these gentlemen of the
success of their scheme, that they are al
ready beginning to let their humble satel-
lites into the secret, and we have been in
formed through a source entitled to credit.
that wager to large amount has actu-
ally been laid within the last two weeks.
by a jealous and active partizan of the
Bank, that this design would be accom-
plished, and National Bank established
by Congress ,0ithin t1C0 gears!
The pressure under which the individuals
very extensively engaged in business in the
commercial cities of the country, for some
time past, has been attempted to be attribu-
ted to variety of causes, the principal one
of which, appeared to be the operation of
the Treasury order issued under the direc-
ton of Gen. JACKSON, few months before
his retirement from the presidency. To
his interference" as the Bank Wings are
pleased to call it, with the currency and bu-
siness relations of the country, all the evils
were traced. The abuse which has been
heaped upon him for several years past,
was redoubled, and threats are now openly
made, that unless his successor consents to
an abandonment of his policy, "pistols
shall flash, and dirks gleam, T" and commit
tee of "ten thousand armed free men, pro-
ceed to Washington to "relieve the coun-
try from the grievance" complained of. A
fire-eater named Gould, belonging to the
city OF New York, has avowed his readi-
ness to engage in the enterprise, and more
than one lncendiary Wing press has openly
advocated the adoption Of such a course.
The Columbia Democrat. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1837-1850, 1837-05-13

The object of the Bank and IFS satellites,
is evidently TO create "pancj' to spread
confusion throughout the land, and force,
if possible, from President Van Buren,,
repeal of salutary and wise regulation,
and from Congress an act of incorporation
for a National Bank. Those who have
read the articles upon the subject of the
pressure, which we have recently laid be-
fore them from the Washington Globe and
other able opponents of sound principles,
understand perfectly well, how the Treasu-
ry order,so obnoxious to greedy spectators,
operates, and the beneficial results which
must necessarily flow from its continuance;
and it will also appear perfectly evident to
them, that whilst it affects njuriously, only
the few who sought, by system of speeu4
lation upon the public domain, through the
medium offictitious capital, to enrich thems
selves speedily at the expense of the many,
it is calculated materially to improve the
condition of the poor man, and secure the acA
mal settler of the public lands in the possess
sion of his rights.
With this knowledge before them, thew
know full well, how little truth there can be
in the declamatory assertions of the Bank
Wings, that to this cause the existing mon
etary difficulties are northumberland they
will, we are confident, unite with us in the
hope, that the President will, under no cir
cumstances, take any steps in relation to its
abrOgation, which would have the effect of
again awakening the extravagant system of
land speculation, which the order itself SO
effectually curbed.
tits not the effect of the treasury order,
but the operation of the United States bank
itself, which has produced the present de-
rangement in the monied affairs of the coun-
try. Its object is the one we have already
adverted to, to grind and oppress the peo-
pie, until it forces acharter from their rep
resentatives in congress. The bank has
found that it cannot act as extensively and
profitably as it desires to, under the charter
granted by the Legislature of this state, and
1t now aspires to be at the head of affairs,
where itmay exercise unlimited power, and
"make money plenty or scarce at its pleas
ure."
What do the people of Pennsylvania
think OF this project! They have been ac-
lively engaged for several years past, in
combating this monster in all its forms.
They condemned in loud and emphatic
terms, the recreant representatives who vi
olated their solemn pledges, and gave the
bank new existence--They instructed
their delegates to the reform convention, TO
use all proper exertions to repeal the charter
so mysteriously obtained; and they have on
all occasions, manifested most decided
and uncompromising hostility to every mea--
to G6Mhlch had even the slightest tendency

fourth page that we have given quotations with re-
gard to number of the eastern and western Banks.

that i'll allthc relations of life in addition to
being afl'ectionate and kind, he was active,
energetic and useful, upright in his deport-
ment, good citizen and an honest man.
Therefore
ResotUed, That the Convention, as to-
ken of their regard for the memory of Dan
Caldwell, allow this notice of his death to
be placed upon the journal.
Mr.. MERRILL did not know that he could
suggest any thing to whathad been presented
by the gentleman on his right, Mr.. Banks. J
He deemed it proper, however, as a citizen
from the'county where the deceased resi-
ded, to say that in all the walks of life he
had been respected, honored and esteemed.
He had known the deceased long, and al
though they differed on some points, yet as
intimate acquaintances and friends, they
had always agreed; and he could say with
truth that there was no one among his friends
for whom he entertained a higher regard
than DAN CALDWELL. The convention in
the death of this gentleman had met with
a serious loss; for although he was attached
to a party, he held the interests ofhs coun-
try above any feeling of party; whatever
respect therefore could be paid to his mem
ory by the convention, he hoped it might
be done, as there was no one more deserv-
ing of it than the deceased.
We shall continue our notice, as above,
of the diurnal proceeding.

CONFINEMENT.

My conscience is my crown,
Contented thoughts my rest;
NV heart is happy in itself,
Ny bliss is in my breast.
Ny wishes are but few,
All easy to fulfill
make the limits Of my power
The bounds unto my will.
Lear no care Of gold,
Well doing is my wealth;
NY mind TO me an empire is,
While grace afordeth health.
I clip high climbing thoughts
The wings Of swelling pride;
Their fall is worst, that from the height
OF greatest honors slide.
Since sails OF largest size
The storm doth soonest tear,
Ibear so small and low a sail
As freeth me from fear.
No change Of fortunes calm
Can cast my comforts down:
When fortune smiles, smile TO think
How quickly she will frown.
And when in froward mood
She proves an angry foe, a.
Small gain found to let her come
Less loss TO let her 20.
