TAE UNITED STATES BANK, This
institution which the bankites IN their
political rhrenzy, hailed as the great ar
only regulator of our currency ard =
changes, and which under its charters Ma
tional aud State, has entailed more misery
upon the people Of this nation than any
other one cause, has again, from acknowl-
edged inability refused to liquiadte its
Liabilities, Notwithstanding the great pre-
palntons that were made to enable it to
lead thy way in resumption, IN obedience
to the law OF the Pennsylvania Lesisla
ture. This suspension serves to strength
en- us in the opinion we some time since
advanced, that the loans obtained by this
institution from the various banks in Penn
sylvania, were merely nominal, and were
contracted with no other object than to
revive public confidence ia these worst Of
enemies to popular freedom; and thus en-
able this header in the work OF plumber to
pour forth floods Of lis ever-to.be-redeem-
ed promises, and open the way for the lesser
Of its kind. II this dnesse could have
succeeded, bankers might again, as they
have been wont to do, have grown rich on
the products Of our national industry, by
legnlized system Of swindling which has
well nigh beggared many parts Of the
Union. But confidence being a plant ol
slow growth, requires much fostering care
IN lis cultivation, could not be SO easily
resussitated, hence The scheme failed, and
the "great regulator" will most probably
not again attempt the payment of lis
liabilities until they shall have become so
deprecated that they can be purchased at
one half, or less than one half OF their val
ue; and thus will it swindle the people oil
millions. Notwithstanding the rotten
condition of this miserable concern, we
learn that but few days since, 1t took
four hundred thousand dollars of the Penn
sylvania State loan, splendid commentary
on the honesty of such institutions.
The Free Trader states, that on the
reception of the intelligence OF this sas-
pension, in Natchez, the notes OF the U.
s. Bank deprecated twenty five per cent.
ia that market.

MORE BANK SUsrENsIoNs.-Th The sus-
pension Of the United Slater Bank, has
been followed by a suspension Of specie
payments,hy other banks, which in extent
are but little inferior to the great suspen
sion Of 1897, and which will perhaps
prove but little. Inferior to il jim their impor.
tant aud destructive consequences. Atho'
the other banks ofthe city, and county Of
Philadelphia, had determined in conven-
ton, not to suspend tAc payment Of specie
on their liabilities, they were necessarily
compelled 10 suspend on the 9Th inst, in
consequence Of the great run, the holders
Of their liabilities had been induced to
make on them, by the unexpected suspen.
sion Of the regulator"
In consequence of the great run made
on the Baltimore banks, on the 9Th and
"n inst, they met in convention on the
ON, and unanimously determined not to
make further payment Of their liabilities
IN specie. A number Of the New Jersey
banks suspended on the 9th and 9Th.
Inc news Of the suspension Of SO great
number Of banks in the eastern and mid
We States, created much sensation in
view York, but the banks Of that city had
MOI suspended up to our last dates. AT
vu' last adyices, the banks at Richmond,
'a' had determined not 70 suspend.

or THE Elior Of the Natchez Couri
er, speaking Of the remarks of Mr. Benton
ia the United States Senate, in relation TO
tho dccease Of the Hon. Felix Grundy,
sa,s:--" Better were il for the country,
that on that Identical day, Senator Grun-
dy, had been prouounciag the customary
funeral discourse over Mr. Benton" No
one placed a higher estimate upon the
eloquence, ability, and patriotism OF the
Iameated GraniyShan ourselves, nor does
any one feel a greater reverence Tor his
memory; but we cannot concede, that
even this great man, who was indeed great
among the great, could have rendered
more valuable service to the country, than
Thos. II. Benton, whose firm and unde-
vating course, in defence Of popular
rights, has called forth flood of abuse,
from those, who aspire only 10 be the
scavengers of their party.
Better we're it tor the countTy that q
thousand such beings as the Editor of the
Courier, had died "unwept and unsung,n
than that it should have become necessary
10 pronounce a funeral discourse over
either Benton or Grundv.
