Bank of White Pigeon.--As this insiitu.
ton will commence operations, in few
days, we think it proper to say few words
in relation to it. We understand that the
most ample securities on unncumbered
real estate have been offered and approved.
The mortgages being on lands of the best
quality, estimated at very low rates--a
great deal lower than the owners would be
willing to sell them at.---Such securities
being given, the Bills ofihs bank must be as
safe as any debt can possibly be made,
more so than if two specie dollars were de.
posted in the vaults for every dollar in bills
issued because the vaults might be robbed
or the deposites might be removed but
when the security consists of good farming
land, which is constantly increasing in val
ne, the permanency Of the security will
give character and standing to the insti.
tuition, much above the chartered banks Of
this state.
Mr.. Daniel Howell Of this Village has
been elected President of the Bank o.

sResolved, That committee of three be ap

duct a monthly periodical, devoted exclusively to
the subject of common school education and if
thought expedient, to employ such editor and dc.
wise ways and means for tho remuneration Of his
services"
Having been appointed said committee, the un-
dersigned, after mature consideration of the SUBJ
ject before them, have come to the unanimous
conclusion, that a publication of the character
contemplated in the resolution, would be eminent.
ly serviceable to the cause of education, and en-.
titled to the countenance and patronage of every
enlightened and patriotic citizen. Its design is
to awaken deeper interest throughout the state,
in the import ince ofprmary education, to elevate
the character of common schools, by communica.
ting important principles and suggestions con-
nccied with the management and instruction of
youth, and to spread before the community such
facts and information will interest all who feel
any concern in the subject of popular education.
The committee have great pleasure in announ-
cling that they have engaged AZ editor of the pro-
posed journal, the Sup arintendent of Public In
struction, Mr.. john ID. PIERCE. To literary quail.
iications OF high order, Mr.. Pierce unites the
advantage Of former experience as a practical
teacher and of minute and extensive acquaintance
with the condition and wants of every portion OF
the state. Under such auspices, the committee
cannot doubt that the publication will be valua.
BILE auxiliary in the cause of education, and they
appeal with equal earnestncss and confidence to
their fellow citizens to encourage and sustain the
enterprise.

Bank Conpenfion.--A convention of delegates
from banks under the General Banking Law, as
sembled at Detroit on the Goth ult. We pub
lish, to-day, memorial, drafted at that conven-
tion, to the legislature, asking the privilege of
purchasing portion of the state stock. We al
so publish Governor Mason's message to both
branches off the Legislature, upon the same subject
accompanying the memorial. We hope the le-
gislature will grant tho request of the memorial
lists, as it is matter of vital importance to every
citizen of Michigan. At present tho banks un-
der the General Banking Law, furnish nearly the
entire circulating medium Of the state. If the
legislature should grant the prayer of the memo
rialists it at gives them funds at the east to
draw upon; and the merchant or business man
can then pay his eastern debts with the money
be sold to the chartered banks, exclusively, it
would not only be unjust and oppressive to the
safety fund banks, but it would be ruinous to the
great mass ofthc people ofthe state; and it would
place weapon in their hands with which they
could destroy every bank in the state. formed un-
der the General Banking Law. We learn that pc
titions are in circulation, and numerously signed,
in this vicinity, which will be forwarded imme-
dately to the legislature, urging upon that body
the importance of granting the request made in
the memorial referred to. We hope the people of
this county will make the exertion upon this SUBJ
ject, that the importance Of the case deserves.
Every man receiving and discussing money is
more or less interested.
