These the returns of SS0 Banks and Branches
 of which 400 suspended, and will in all probabil-
 ity never resume. The returns not to be depend-
 ed upon with any great degree of accuracy. The
 looseness of manner in which the Banks get up their
 returns, forbds any approach to certainty. The
 general results, however, show that during the past year the Banks have not in any great degree varied
 their position. Those of the suspended sections have been kept in check by the uncertainty of resumption.
 Up to the final failure of the U. S. Bank it was sup- posed that general resumption would be brought about; this compelled caution the part of those Banks desrous of preserving their charters At the same time the specie buying banks of the North and East, having confidence in the promised resump- ton, studously abstained from extending themselves
 in any degree likely to place themselves in the pow CT of the weak banks, which particularly those of Philadelphia, anxiousy watching for the New York Banks to commit themselves by any imprudent policy, in order to take advantage of it and consum- mate the attempt to force a suspension, which was made in the fall of 1889, according to the evidence contained in Mir. Cowperthwae's letter to Mr. Bid de. This uncertainty of events served keep nsti- tuons in state of repose, during which the real b- siness of the country has progressed with the most unparalled rapidity.
 If the Sub-Treasury law had been confirmed, the l uncertainty of affairs would have been removed, and the New York spece-paying policy would most un- l doubtedly have taken the lead and business would l have improved on firm basis, gradually compelling | the resumption of the several banks and forcing the insolvent into liquidation. There is possibi ity now that national bank will be chartered. Its operation will not be to assist the movement com menced under the Sub Treasury law, but it will come in conflict with it, and create desperate struggle be- tween the different systems, which must tend to check the progress of business.

 The proceedings at Washington are increasing in
 interest. The sub-treasury law is repealed in the senate and will be so in the house. This will bring the law of June, ls36, or the pet bank system into operation. This system nearly ruined the banks that received the deposites under il. And in the present suspended state of most of the banks, but few are eligible as fiscal agents south of New York. This
 law is meant to be in operation only until the national bank plan can be carried into operation. The pros- pect for this grows more precarious Mr. Ewing is about to submit his plan, which understand is to embrace capital of $50 1000 O0O, the principal bank 10 he located at Washington. One third of the stock to be subscribed by the government The general details of the plan are very restricted general bank movements. Tins will not suit the Clay party, who want a large bank, of extensive powers, and should such bank be passed, the President will veto it without hesitation The President is avowedIy willing to go far the constitution will permit in giving banking character to the Government fiscal agents, but the punder party will acquire no adyan- lages in the proposed change The Secretary of the Treasury in his report has the following passage:
 "The present system is also in many respects cumbrous and inconyenent. It's tendency is to centre the disbursements in some of the Eastern cities, chiefly at New York. That being the great commercial emporium of the United States, is the point at which funds valuable and therefore the most sought; hence, those who entitled to payments out of the Treasury claim them there"
 This is the great objection to the Treasury plan Tn ms OplnlOn NeW IS the great centre of merce and the pivot of exchange operations. The nature oftheir operations and the course of trade therefore, make funds more valuable there than any where else. The remainder of the report is occupied in recommending National Bank, that shall 'sco- operate with the business of the country facilitate exchanges" and "regulate the currency" In the paragraph quoted the objection to the system is that under money is paid where it is most valuable This surely facilitates exchanges, and co-operates with trade Will National Bank "facilitate ex- changes" and "reguate the currency" by paving the public money where it is least waned Such in truth seems to be the argument of the Secretary and as confirmed by his proposed plan of establishing the principal bank at Washington, which will indeed be far enough from the commercial and financial centre

not in favor of repeal of the Subtreasury and, by

forcement of lis exactions Finally, he goes for Ma
tonal Bank such Congress may choose TO make and
as TO its constutionalty and all that he signifies that
he will be quite as easy Mr.. Madison was. Nothing
could be more explicit and nothing more desirable, at
the present. than the Presidents declarations. They
put at rest all doubts his willingness to pursue
such the Wing party in Congress may agree
upon He takes lead except perhaps, in the repeal
of the Sub-treasury. The Cabinet can assure you,
were in some perturbation TO their condition, before
they conferred with Mr.. Tyler l know that SEINE OF

that "ifthe exgences of the country require National
