uict, during the present canvass, and that 1t has
been reported, that thai bill was introduced

pie. Now, Sir, it passes my comprehension
how such false reports can get afioat. assert,
'sha, that bill was laid on the table without any
opposition, and that no cote was ever taken
upon it. Byrefaring to the Act Of the Leglsla

be seen that what here assert is true. k"ow
that the gentleman who is now charged with

posed to it and would have rotcd against ii, II

BANK RESUMPTION.

The Philadelphia Banks have recently
had "IAConventiou," to consult when they
Should resume specie payments, that is,
when they should discharge their obliga-
tions in honesty and faith. Soule OF them,
i, seems, were ia favor Of immediate re-
sumption, hut this was finally abandoned
in consequence of the condition Of The u
uited STATES Bank, aud also, 10 doubt, be-
cause it is their policy to keep 'harc
tines until the election is over. They
agreed to resume on the 18th day of jan
uary uex,-the day on which the law com.
pels them TO resume, or forfeit their char
ters.
The City Banks have agreed to aid the
United States Bank wien the lime ar.
rives, in order 10 enable it TO resume with
the rest. Wha, comment on the char
acter and conduc, of that iustilutiou!-
The "grand regulator" the ''mammoIh,'
the giant dependent on the local Banks
for help 10 meet Its obligations! Some
years ago, when this Bank was (atienng
ON the peoples money, its stock was sell
ling in market at lao per share,-now ii
is down to CD per share.
Well may The Journal Of Commerce,
Wing paper, Say that this Bank "has
caused the ruin of more business men than
all other causes put together Tor years
past,-and yet we see the Federal party
using their utmost exerIlnus, aud deIer-
mined if they get in io%rrto establish an
other one--one with double the capital Of
the preseu, institution. Webster, in his
Saratoga speech, so much lauded by The
Federal party, plainly indicates that tins
will be the course if Harrison is elected
Bank aud a Protective Tariff are the
main features Of their policy. MIR. Pope,
the brolher-in-Iaw of John G. Adams, but
last session introduced bill for Bank of
Seventy millions Of dollars capital. The
whole policy Of the party tends to this.
No honest man will deny 1t.

Ercitiag Incident.-We saw letter.
within lew days written by young la
hy who, many weeks since, was journving
from this place to the West. IL narrates
very exciting occurrence which took
place ON board tue steam boat in which
she was passenger, aud of which she
was an eye witness. lnpassing down the
Mississippi river, our narrator was sum-
moned from the cabin by alarming shrieks
and great commoliou on deck. On going
up, she found that young lady had fallen
overheard. aud The boat in her progress
was fast leaving her behind. A gentle.
lnan on board Immediately dlvested him
self of par Of hi, clothing and sprung into
lie river. lie reached the drowning per-
son, and upheld her i'll the water, until a
small boat came TO the rescue Of both. TIE
young lady, thus snalched from sudden
death, was the daughter of an elderly gen.
tleman who was Oh board the boat-fnr-
eiguers, neither of whom could speak En-
glish. Oh reaching the deck and recov-
eriug from her fright, she paSsinnatey en-
braced her deliver and bestowed kiss after
kiss upon him, as the only way she could
express her gratitude and lhankfuluess;
while the father rushed from the cabin ca
gerly profered him roll of bank bills.
These being refused, he ran to his cabin
and returned with bag Of gold which hr
likewise pressed upo, his acceptance; nor
