MILLEpeEvlLLE, Nov. 9, 1889.
DEAR SIR-I have again returned TO this city oil
Gotham No 2. There 10 quite crowd Of people
collected here, comprising all sorts and sizes bank
and anti bank are the division of parties, with
sprinkng Of internal improvement and anti inter
nal improv But the bank question is the all
topic Of conversation in all circles. Some
are for giving the banks plenty Of time to get out Of
their dificultiss-sOme advocate even four gears
Tor a resumption. Others propose one year, and
others month. Some again are for closing those
that have been suspended, and knock others in the
head as fast As they stop payment. Then again
there is another set that for prohibiting the
banks from pushing their debtors as long they
don't pay their own debts. This is making rascais
Of bank debters well bank directors. Some OF
them cant pay their debts with all the facilities
watch the law can furnish for the collec of what
| is due to them.
Whilst all this is going on, some Of the banks and
their creditors have fallen oat and the latter have
CONNER ced forcing them to do the honest thing
late cashier Of the branch OF the bank Of Medge-
vile, has proceed to protest this bank in about
thousand cases, for the sum OF ten or twelve thou
sand dollars The cost and damages, if prosecuted
to Judgment in the magistrates court, will be
than four thousand dollars
The United States Court is now in session here,
and am told that case there pending, which
will come on for trial this rim, in which the
aty Of the celebrated per cent law will be deter
mined
Another important QueStlOn Will also De decided
1t is action against the Central Bank for the
very Of some OF her promises to pay, and the Bank
pleads that the State is the only stakeholder, is
suing the State, and that the State cannot be sued
This question affects the interest Of the Phesix Bank
| which holds Central Bank Bonds TO the amount Of
$500, 900. This will determine whether the
Phenix Bank will have to await the pleasure Of the
State or whether she resort To the strong Of
| the law to enforce her claim. The debt however,
will be good some day or other the State is not
deeply in debt as to be tempted o act dishonor-
\ ably.
There is a strong disposition on the part Of some
Of the leading members Of the legislature TO resort
to strong and energetic to relieve the State
Of debt. Her resources are ample and by judicieus
measures she can pay in tive years every thing that
is due, including the thirty year bonds which she
has egotiated. Georgia has been charged with ne
is mistake-she has paid il promptly, and without
doubt will continue to do so This State has not the
credit which she is entitled to-she ought to stand
No l. She pay all Of her debts without resorting
to loans taxation.
There is no change among the banks-the suspend
ed still refuse to pay and the redeemable continue
launch out the hard stun Yours.
