The above table comprises the returns of banks
made within the past six eight months, and shows
the banking movement Of the principal States in the
Union. These banks show much larger amount Of
specie in proportion to their circulation than those of
the smaller States, those not so intimately connect
ed with the commercial affairs Of the country large
Since the date of the above respective reports there
have been great changes in the banking move
ment of the country generally. There has been
increase in the line of discounts, and in the
amount OF paper issues while the amount of specie on
hand and the amount Of deposits have materially d
minished. Tho returns made about the month of No
vember last give the most favorable report Of the item
of specie, the expectation of precious metals had
not at that time, been very great and the immcn
importations of the previous nnc months in the
country. The shipments since, have been about
millions of dollars most Of which has out Of the
banks of the country banks.
The revolutions which have taken place in Europe
within the past ninety days have deprecated prices
abroad for our principal exporting staples to a
lower point than those ruling during the COM
nmrcial rcvulsion just previous, and there has
therefore, been no time to realize; the consc-
quence of which has been, that the producers
have been compelled to hold and the banks had prcv-
ousy become involved with them, that they
obliged to aid them in 80 doing to great extent
The prospect at present in favor Of an advance in
prices, is by means very hattcring, and we
immediate probability Of the banks getting out of
the position in which circumstances have placed them
If they realize at the present market value they must
DO heavy losers and those who have received advances
must submit TO immense sacrifice Of property;
IL they hold the banks will be in danger of serious
barrassments The nexcd comparative statement of
prices for our principal staple products at New Or
leans will show the fluctuations within the past few
