provisions will exclude entirely the votes of the New York stockholders, and place the power in the hands of those who will act for inc interest all concerned. Ifupon an ex- animation by the new directors, and the Bank Commissioners, they shall be of opn- ion that tho safety of the public and the, in. terests of the innocent stockholders require that its concerns be wound up, the Commis- sioners are directed to apply to Judge ofthe Superior Court for an injunction against the bank, and are authorised to wind up it's con- cerns. This course proposed, received. the general acquiesence of tile House, and shows that whenever bank violates its charter and conducts improperly, it will receive no fa- vor from a Legislature of Connecticut.

Whether they are or are not, is an- other matter. see but little to object to him. He is, however, still the nominee of the Wings.

 Storm ia Charleston Our Southern cities seem to have been visited with severe floods and storms intely. The Charleston Courier of the 5th inst. says: q" On Wednesday night last, we were visited with n succession of thunder storms, delugiDg our already flood ed city with rain, and about half past six o'clock, yesterday afternoon, we experience ed another dyluging visitation of a like na- ture, accompanied for about ten minutes with n thick fall of the largest hailstones r we have ever seen. We have often read of hailstones as large as hens eggs, and been disposed torcgard them as fabulous-but, in this instance, we have been eyewitness to the fact. The stones were for the most part like flattened rosind pebbles of a snowy whiteness-while there were others of differ- ent shapes, and some, both in, shape and ap- pearance, jagged fragments Of ice. The damage to our gardens and the breakage of window glass was very eXtensive!a One of the hail. l-sioheS measurement was 6 1e9 inch 'ee in 'circpmferenec, and we have heard of -lhtger ones.
