AS the same causes for n fall prevail in Walls
to-day that prevailed for the last twenty days so tho
tendency OF things was tho way. The "fanccs'
are particularly the fancy of any and even the
Investment stocks rcuograde little before General
Panic The decline has been very great to-day, but
the yesterday and tho day before and alto.
gcihe stocks lower than they have been for long
time past aud until tho fog clears up little which en-
yclops tho movements of those destructive friends Of
the dear people Washington scarcely look FOR
any Improvement
In Foreign Bills there has been but little doing
and tho heavy. Sterling % 81 Francs %
Rix.dolars ISL % 7es; Marks Banco 35i a 35i; Guild
ers 39i a 39t.
The Bank of New York has declared dividend
of four per for the last Elk months payable on Tho
Is, Of May.
The Mechanics Bank at Augusta has declared
dividend of four dollars per share
Private information from Washington induces us
to believe that the Sub.Treasury bill, it pissed The
House ia not in favor with the majority Of tho Senate
Committee and it will be presented the Senate
with essential notifications and II passed at all will be
psssed with these changes The Chamber OF Commerce
of thI. CITY held warm debate Of aud half hours
TODAY ON the memorial prepared by Committee of the
Chamber and passed slmost unanimously after adopt
ing several amendments. As passed II demonstrates
against the passage OF the Sub Treasury project unless
accompanied by bill establishing simultaneously tine
housing system and also one establishing Branch
Mint in this City 1t also demonstrates against 1t unless
tho time fixed for its going into operation be postponed
and the requirement Of the specie clause be gradual
Aud this we have to think will be in substance
the shape in which the bill will be reported to the Senate
in addition which provision Will be madefor the
issue Of int certificates, or something OF the sort by
which the sting may be drawn out of the animal
The Banks of this City, we learn, have now as
much specie when their report was made In Feb and
before the lat May will have half million more. The
rcc,p,s are large from the interior and there is de-
nand excepting for few rsnc pieces for France. The
necessity for putting themselves in shape for the usual
quarterly farce has been why the con,rac.
lions az the Banks has been larger than would have
been simply under the Sub Treasury impendeucy
