friends of sound currency, and bitter gall to TIE
paper-money dnanclcrs
Last week confidence in all Bank notes was so
much shaken, that, it was feared, the people might
grow troublesome Every Bank saw before it nothing
but ruin aud bankruptcy, and resumption was the
Only means of escape.
1t is supposed that the Citizens, the Canal, the
Consolidated and the Commercial Banks will not be
able to hold out in the good work, but the people and
the other sound Banks heed not what may happen to
those Institutions Resumption has been forced by
the strong arm of public opinion and if every Bank
in the city closes her doors in consequences, there will
be no backing out on the part of the people. They
are resolved to have a sound currency. The bank
ruptcy of the four Banks aboyenamed, will be a
blessing to the community, and the influence OF that
fact is felt The citizens want no Bank unless tcan
pay coin on a ! its demands.
SAID above that resumption has been forced Oh
the New Orleans Banks by public opinion. Tha
opinion has been corrected and turned into the right
channel by the almost hercuean horts OF Mr. Sac
then, OF e Morning Advertiser, of this city, Ever
since last October, he has been urging resumption,
