The Great Question.
The question Of suspension by the New York and
Boston Banks is still the great topic of discussion in
Wall street, in Broadway, in the public houses, in
the private boudoir. Philadelphia is savage because
our banks will not suspend-so was the fox who had
his tail Gu, off for stealing, hatthe other foxes would
not also cut off theirs. The Philadelphia prints call
US every thing and threaten every thing. Their
passion and feeling make them act like the bay,
who told his mother, "ma, if you don't get angry
I'll cut my throat ~
In Wall street. groups Of anxious, reasoning, silve-
r socitous persons lounging about all day long,

does not take place This is all folderol-sheer fol-
derol. If the banks remain firm there is no danger
of suspension. The miserable trash uttered by the
press Of Philadelphia is not worth moments notice.
They are the rawlings Of the disappointed.
As 10 the Providence banks, they have cut their
own threats Their ridiculous suspension does not

ten per cent exchange-as compared with New York
funds-but BY their suspension, they lose circnla-

be returned and taken ont Of circulation They lose
by their foolish suspension on every hand
We are all right in New York Here, il specula-
tors are not permitted to rule and ruin, nothing

in sustaining the banks The collector OF the port,
by advice and consent Of the President, distributes
his deposites to such banks require aid, on ample
security; aad the comptroller Of the state throws
