%. The wings have issued notices calm

u The wings have issued notices calling a
convention in this county-and pretty general
movement Of thu kind in all the counties of the
state, we perceive, is agitating, preparatory to a
state convention, purely of their own party
We care not how strictly they draw the line of
distinction, nor how soon they set up business for
themselves, and have not the least objection to
the representative of this section of st. Joseph
county declaring at once the side on which he
depends for future support.
That party. since as party it is hereafter to
show itself in Michigan, may rest assured, that
the democrats will be the last men to lament over
any movement, which shall stimulate to fair
trial of strength. And we do not apprehend
the drowning of the land, y any flood of tears
that might flow, from the few presses on the fence
getting down to their aid. We do not perceive
that the call of wing state convention, nor the
establishment of second leading paper at De-
trot, the "Spy in Michigan" has yet alarmed
any body.
We notice that the Advertiser calls upon the
"real friends" THAT may be the new name of the
wing party] of Michigan to bestir themselves in
season, preparatory to the election on the 2lst
and 22nd Of August, of a representative in Con.
gress.
That is the time the Legislature have just fixed
upon for the election to fill that Office, and it will
be fair opportunity for the first trial in state
of the ''real friends" and the democrats.

Here arc two millions of funds in hand to meet
elevenfmillions of debts payable on demand!-
What an excellent condition-how perfectly able
to assist the merchants in New York. to cooper
ate with the other banks in affording relief!
On the first of May this bank was in still
worse condition. Notwithstanding the sale of his
foreign bonds to the amount Of four millions, by
the returns of the bank of that date, his specie
amounted to s ,282, Sl3; balance of Indebtedness
to state banks, 799 ,226; balance of specie, 1885,
500: circulation and dspostes, 10,039,9 1854.
Here is less than half a million of funds to pay
ten millions of debts on demand
Let it be remembered that but few days after
this Mr.. Bidde's bank stopped payment, and wo
shall know how true his statements then MAIDS
were-'ihlt had it, the bank, consulted merely its
own strength, it would have continued its pay
ment without reserve,'-that is, he would have
paid ten millions with half million. We shall
know too, how true was his statement that he
stopped because the state banks would not pay
their balance when in fact there was a heavy bal
ance due from the United States bank to the
state banks
Another reason for stopping payment he gives
in a letter TO Mr.. Adams, in these words:
"Whil, the vaults of all the other banks were
closed, the government would have no resource
TO procure specie but the bank of the u. States,
which ought not TO assume the risk of being the
only source of supply for bullion TO the govern
ment and the land offices, as well as for exporta-
tion."
Alas, for the government! alas, for the land
ofices alas, for the exporters of specie! Mr..
Bidlle has closed the doors of his vault, which
contains four hundred thousand doLtdrs!-Onei-
