While endeavor 10 make the suspension pass along
as easily as possible mast not forget to nculcate in
these hard money times, economy, simplicity neat
ness, and entire suspension of all costly ornaments
and expensive dresses. With your aid, sweet fair
ones shall be able to moderate the pressure, and
make the awful CONFUSION in commerce pass away
as mildly as possible Young ladies, just entering
upon life, should be particularly careful in beginning
on the proper principle. neat simple dress, small
sleeves, if you choose with moss rose in the hair

the true characteristics of the cash system in human
life.
In making disbursements OF the coin give them in

II Great popular Indignation exists in Philadel-
pna against the suspension Of specie payments by the
banks The following is from the United States Ga
zette OF yesterday Nne-tenths of the people OPP
posed 10 the banks and will yet hur them TO dcstruc
ton.
GREAT MEErINo-The largest assemblage that we
ever witnessed in Philadelphia, met yesterday IN the
State House yard in pursuance OF a call published
for two three days previous, signed by Mcssrs
Farrell Hogan, Thompson, and ether gentlemen con-
nected with the Trades Union Society, including
three of those who acted as presidents OF that body
The meeting was fixed at four o'clock, but for two or
three hoprs previous the crowds began to assemble
and the business of the meeting commenced few
minutes before the appointed time at which period
there were not less than twenty thousand individuals
present. three-fourths Of whom It IS probable, were
drawn thither from motives OF curiosity and took
part whatever in the proceedings. We could not get
near enough TO distinguish the names Of the officers
who were appointed by the meeting, nor to hear the
resolutions that were road the speeches that were
delivered upon the occasion. A committee was APP
pointed for the purpose so far as could learn Of
carrying into effect the object OF the meeting, which
was declared to be "for the purpose Of taking into
consideration measures for retaining the specie in the
country for domestic and national purposes, and
against the introduction Of small notes." Among
the measures proposed at the meeting, and we be-
eve adopted for ehectng SO desirable an object
was the commencement of prosecutions against all
corporations Institutions or individuals, who have IS
sued notes contrary TO law and also for commencing
suits at law, against any bank which shall refuse
payments Of Its notes IN specie. Steps will be taken
at once to test the efficacy and efficiency Of this
mode of correcting state OF affairs which every
member of the community has so much reason to de-
plore.
After listening to several eloquent addresses the
meeting at five o'clock adjourned to meet again on
Thursday next for the purpose of hearing the report
of their committee. The immense assemblage quiet
" dispersed, without the slightest indication of die
turbance whatever indeed it may be safely affirmed
that no instance can be adduced OF SO large meet
inc ever having convened for the consideration oil
matters so Immediately and directly pertaining to
their own personal interests, and conducting them
selves throughout with more good order and perfect
decorum, than we take PRIDE in saying was manifest
ed upon this OCCASION We are sorry that our re-
peaed efforts to obtain copies of the resolutions were
unsuccessful.
In addition TO the above we learn that another
great meeting was held in Philadelphia yesterday
and that the streets were crowded before the boat
started i'm the morning. 1t is feared that the excite
ment against the banks have broken out into riots.
We shall know today.
MvrrrSsASp CRuMp-HIrs.-Until lately, there was
a company keeping store in Fulton street, who car
ried the business of making backing, ink, and mi
rabiie dictu Mullins and crumps! The principals
Of the firm were brethren of the name of BackmaR
in partnership with two ether individuals named Har
man and Mott. These latter separated from the
Blackmans and set up on their own hoek causing
great umbrage and heartburn to the Blackmans. Both
