MosEy Abrams IN NEW YoRK.--AAas Bank.
A slip from the office Of Thompson's Bank Note Re-
porter informs us that the agent in New York foI
the Atas Bank at Cymer, (Chautauque COZ has
stopped redeeming the notes OF the institution. This
is the bank relative to which there has been some
complaints against the Comptroller for taking q
bond and mortgage of $4,000 security for Its
circulation.
The same authority says that the value of the notes
Of the Snsquehanna County Bank Of Pa, and the
New Hope and Delaware Bridge Co.. will probably
be rs to 30 cents on the dollar.-N. Y. Commercial
