The Bank of the State has, it will be perceived by
this comparative statement taken the lead in the
duction of the principal departments but its condition
is yet anything but satisfactory. The influence of
this institution upon others in the State is much for
good for evil and its expanded condition has doubt
less tended to general imitation in the banking
ment. The aggregate amount Of specie on hand on
the 31st of July in all the banks above AIMED in
proportion to their circulation to four whereas
the amount Of specie in the Bank of the State in pro-
portion to its circulation only in eight, show
ing that institution to be in dangerous position
with the improvements made within the past two
months, than any other bank in the State. If all
these banks go strengthening themselves rapidly
the above returns exhibit few months may suffice
to do away with the Impressions which have gone
abroad relative to their solvency; but, on the
rary, If the drain of specie continues to mode
rate extent, without corresponding a crater
traction in all the other departments, they may de-
pend upon result not at all satisfactory With few
exceptions the banks Of South Carolina in less
favorable position than those of any other State in the
Union, in good credit and in active operation.

Since May last there has been very important i'm
proyement in the leading departments. The returns
for July compared with those for May, exhibit a de-
crease in the circulation of $780, in the deposits Of
S74 $50; in loans and discounts 1921, $685. and in
in the amount of specie on hand $S6220. The
variations in the circulation and specie items give
hope that the position in which Of the banks
of the State have been placed within the past six
months will induce caution for the future, and bring
about a healthy contraction Within the past four
months the amount of paper issued has been duced
more than four hundred thousand dollars, and the
discounts nearly the same amount and If the next
four months brings about further contraction for
similar amount there will still be for improve
ment. The Charleston steamer brought to this port,
early in the week. nearly eighty thousand dollars in
specie, drawn by banks and 1t is highly probable,
from the existing condition of exchanges that mo-
derate drain Of this kind will continue for some time,
in the face of which possibility Of any great
increase in the supply of bullion in the Charleston
banks. The onlyway to prevent any injurious effects
arising from this is to steadily adhere to contraction
in all other departments
