 Tuscaloosa, December l7th, lS41.
 An important bill, on the subject of the Branch Tn Mobile has been introduced into the Senate by Judge Thornton of Greene. It prohibits further issue of notes restricts the operations of the Bank after day certain, say 10th of Juy) to business paper and ex- change. It authorizes issue of notes redeem able in specie on demand and authorizes the appoint ment of commissioners take charge of the suspend ed debt.

It seems thus far, to take better than any project yet offered, and influential men of both sides tell me they think it will pass. But am induced to think that the mass of the Wings doing every thing they can to embarass and cripple the banks for the purpose of making party capital out of the mischies that arc sure to follow. The majority in the Legis- ature is small, and few democratic votes, carried of by side questions, can prevent any settlement this session, which the wings who are laborins to produce confusion, will charge tothe Democrats, because they have majority which they cannot command on these questions. Some of the leading Wings have pro- CIt'iHeu k Iluuec, tHat Nih 'oS M '"~ es to support the State Government, but leave it to be supported out of Bank capital, unless the whole system is aboi ea at It may not be unwise to abolish ihe system, but it is faction and nothing else, to proclaim that they will not support the Go yernment but will consume the capital of the money the State has borrowed from foreigners, in paying he State expenses, with the intent to charge that

 do not think either of the State Branches will be wound up this session. There is too muck uncer- tainy as to the effect of so strong measure, and too much fear of the results; and may say, too much personal interest in collateral parts of the question, to make it probable than any of them will be wound up. But there will be strenuous effort made, to restrict their operations, and compel them to reduce their cIr culation. The Bill of which spoke above, has been ordered o third reading in the Senate, tomorrow (Mon-
