Mr.. EDIroR-
A general resumption Of specie payments by the
banks of Maryland took place yesterday. Those Of
our city were not called upon for the precious me-
tails more than under ordinary circumstances
Every thing went off, so far as they were concerned
in peace and quietness. All, except the Franklin
Bank, have come into the arrangement. Since her
failure, some eighteen months since, she has obtain
ed new charter, and what its provisions are, I am
unable to say She had not gone into operation,
however. under this charter, and consequently will
be exempt from a compulsory liquidation under
the late act Of assembly. The Chesapeake has but
very small circulation, and will redeem it with
specie on demand This bank, you are aware, was
in slight difficulty some time since, owing to a
gross and inexcnsable neglect upon the part of the
State to return the money it had borrowed, amount
ing to about Sl76, 900; she will continue operations
upon somewhat Independent system. 1t is a truth
admitted on all hands, that the stock in the Chesa-
peake, is as well secured, as is that Of any other
bank in the State.
Business continues without much Improvement
Our merchants make out to wag along as well pro-
badly those of other cities, but in comparative
point OF view It is slow wagglng. Flour has taken
slight rise and may now be quoted at 1878.

Claims OF U. 8. Citizens upon Colombia
President Tyler.

How Is II that nothing has yet been done towards
adjusting the claims which some of the people OF
this country have on the late Government of Co
lombia, s. A.
1t will be remembered that this Government was
dissolved in the year 1881, and then reverted into
the existing governments of Aquador, New Grena-
da, and Venezuela. Now we have had a lapse Of
eleven years since the gross spoliations commit
ted upon the property of our citizens by Bolivar
and yet nothing has been done. Many of those
whose property taken and destroyed, have
long since passed 10 their last home but many
OF them have left widows and orphans to whom the
amount of the money would be great blessing at
this time. There are hundreds OF these cases. to be
found in different parts of the Union many Of them
unable TO bring forward proofs of the recti
tude oil their claims upon those existing govern
mens; and unless something is done shortly, by
way of settling this matter, the whole of the proofs
that might now be obtained by the claimants wi
pass from their possession and become useless.
We wish that our government would look serious
ly into this matter and take the necessary steps
have it settled. England and France have long
since adjusted all the claims which their citizens
have had upon those governments, and the monies
have been paid but government has absolutely
up 10 this hour done nothing whatever that has
transpired In the premises. The government of
General Jackson did nothing that OF Mr.. Van Bu
rem followed in the footsteps of his ustrious prede
cessor, and did nothing also. We have sent out to
those countries one Charge d A6aurs after another
al a very great expense, and what have they done
They have actually never made the first movement
towards adjusting these claims.
Now, therefore, we hope that soon as members
of Congress get done quarrelling and snaring, and
disgracing themselves, and acting like school boys,
They will turn their attention TO this matter. Cap
tain Tyler stands ready 10 back them by every
means in his power. His manly, patriotic, pure,
and independent course hitherto pursued, with sin
gle eye to the greatest good of the greatest number,
Is guarantee that he will do every thing that is
just and for the benefit Of the country ut large
One thing is certan-that those South American
governments will never do any thing unless they are
driven into it by peremptory demand from our 60
vernment Why not then, have mixed commits
sion to examine and adjust all these claims After
this, those governments should be compelled to give
bonds bearing interest," and payable at some specific
period This would Immediately satisfy the claim

Associates Custom House Rcmorais-- Stocks &c.
PHILADELPHIA, May 3, 1912.
A gentleman told me to-day that there was an
affidavit in this city from Hosea ]. Lewis, late
cashier Of the broken Schuylkill Bank, in which it
il distinctly sworn that the officers associated with
him in the Bank were cognlzant of the frauds prac-
tsed upon the Kentucky Bank, and that thesc frauds
pcrpetrated with the view of bolsterng up the
sinking condition of the Bank here. That there il
such an affidavit in this city is possible. though
think hardly probable but if here, is much more
likely TO be false than true In the frst place, no
considerable number of persons, ike that of Bank
Directory, would be likely to keep such frauds
quiet for 80 long time those were kept. In the
second place, there were among that directory Sc
veral gentlemen, whom, amid all the corruption
here, have escaped the faint Of suspicion, though
there were others who were never esteemed any
better than they should be. In the third place,
Lewis is known to have been an invetcratc shaver
during the last few years OF his connection with the
bank, and therefore likely to have use tor mnch
money, and in way to use much. Bearing all the
odum of the transaction, 1t is but natural that he
should seek to make his late associates, by truth or
fasehood,. relieve him OF a portion OF 1t. Still II
