The original enterprise has been carried out,
according to the purpose of the orignators. The
new institution bears the name of the Bank of
the Metropolis, and goes into operation with a
capital of S2,0O0,00O, under the Presidency of
Mr.. James Mccall The jobbsrs, wholesale gro.
GERS, &c, are taking a large interest in it; and
the whole capital has been bespoken, though the
intention is to have it distributed in small sums
among the largest practicable number of stock
holders. 1t is to operate on the plan of the Suf
folk Bank at Boston, and attempt to compel all
the Banks Of the State TO redeem their notes in
specie in this City at par

remittances are received at San Francisco from
