Extract of q merchants letter.
VIcKsBURGH, May Goth,
You can have no idea of the state of things in
this State, EUeryt4ing looks worse and worse,
In several of the counties, they have quashed all
the bonds-in others there are no courts-in 9th
ers the sherifs pocket all the money and refuse to
pay to any one. Indeed the officers and Sub
Treasures are quite willing to take the respon-
sibility." ! do pity, from my heart, the merchants
in this State, they can't collect any thlng-the on
ly money collected is byIforeigners in the United
States Court, The Legislature in their superla-
tive wisdom last winter repealed the law aulhori-
sing the County Courts TO have special terms to
it of doing after the time had expired. Now in
several countless they manage to have the whole
time of the Court occupied with the criminal
docket, and by the time they finish that the term
has expired. In Gallatin, Copiah county saw
white man receive thirty-nine lashes for stealing
a hog, from the woods-and the day before man
for murder was just branded on the hand The
same week, man for deliberate murder, had a
verdict by jury of manslaughter, and had not vet
been sentenced There is no prison. and three
men by the name of Scott, Zone ofthem had killed
E. B. Hatch,) volunteered their services to guard
the prisoner He protested to the court, stating
that he was afraid of his life The Judge ordered
the sheriff to procure other persons for guard ;
but he took the responsibility" of refusing to do
it, and was fined the enormous SUN of SO dollars
Well, at night, the Scots took out the man and
literally cut him in pieces with their bowie knives
After shooting him, one arm was cut off, and they
left him in the street and fled. The deceased had
killed their uncle. They were all married men,
and two of the Scots are we'll off. The Judge in
that county has quashed all the bonds, so that
every thing that was well secured, is now doubt
full. When a bond is quashed the securities
are released, and no bonds will be given again.

A meeting was held al Danville on Mon
last under protect Of recommending to the
Legislature measures for the reform Of the
Banking System ofthe State. A long pre-.
ample and resolutions were introduced by
]. Cooper, Esq, which abounded with but
little else than threats and denunciaions a.
gainsl banks and the State Administration,
They were hastily crowded through and
passed by the feeble response of a few
voices. We have not yet received the pro-
ceedings, but shall probably in time for our
next.
The Columbia Democrat. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1837-1850, 1839-11-23

Much has been said and written within
few weeks past, in regard to the present
position assumed by the banks, and as to
what position the Legislature should assume
towards them. There appears to be three
classes-the two extremes, and the middle
or moderate class. The one extreme is for
tearing them up, root and branch-striking
them at once from existence The other
for placing no mole restrictions upon them
than now exist, but rather extend TO them
the additional power of issuing bills under
Eve dollars. These two classes, however,
are small in comparison to the third or mid
ding class, who are opposed TO any extern
sion Of the present banking capital of the
State; but are for placing them under whole
some restrictions-such as will protect the
people from the evils flowing from the too
often extension and contraction of their bu-
siness, and placing them upon foundation
that will firmly fix the confidence of commu-
nifty in their stability and usefulness. We
were originally opposed to all banks, from
belief that the best interest Of the country
would be better subserved without than
with them-but others have thought other
wise, and either from desire 10 advance
their own interest, or 10 promote the gene
raj good, have succeeded in placing through
out the country, innumerable banks, and
their managers have so successfully man.
aged as TO interweave their operations into
all the ramihcations of the business of the
country, that one cannot be destroyed with
out bringing the other to the same grave
They have therefore become so closely con-
nected that it is now impossible to separate
them, and q banking system must be con-
tnued as necessary euii. Although this
is apparent, yet they should, and must be
restricted in their operations so as to protect
ihe community from their graspng avarIce
and their readiness TO overreach the people
To do this, will devolve upon our next lie
g;slature, and 10 them we look with conf
dence for the adoption of measures that vii
regulate them, and secure the people from
the curse in future, of the revulsions in bu
siness, which have shaken the country to il:
centre, and destroyed its thousands Of active
and industrious citizens within few year:
past To our worthy governor we look
with still further confidence, to recommend
and urge some judicious measures, as he
has already shown steady determine
.ton to protect the rights of the many a
gainst the encIoachments of the few. Tha
something must be done to secure the con
fdence OF the people in the stability of banks
but few deny, the only question appears IC
be wha! measure shall be adopted. Moth
ing, however, should be done without due
reflection, as wehave already had too mucI
