The House Of Delegates has been to day pripci
pally engaged in the discussion of The Bank bill
The subject, however, excited but little interest.
The Wings, verify believe. are anxious to see the
experiment which Loco Foeo wisdom seems de-
r'ous 10 try upon this question, fairly tested and,
ou' Tor the heavy responsibility which they would IN
cur oy permitting these destructive theories to pass
without opposition, have no doubt they would si,
with folded arms while the ultra radical notions IN
which Mr.. Smith Of |. of w. and others seem 70 he
wedded,were incorporated into The Banking system of
The State. The truth is too, that, while in The
House OF Dele Gates the Wings and the more liberal
oil the Loco Focos have decided ascendancy on
TINS subject IN the Senate ii is otherwise and il
matters therefore very tlle what shape NAV be given

When tins is done, the grinding effect of the with

which no Imagination has vet conceived, and which
The people neither can nor will bear. But of one
hng all parties may be assured and that is that the
bio" which a blind and Infatuated hostility to the
Banks may aim at these institutions must be felt by
those who infot it. When Sampson pulled down
