lins has nearly completed his large brick build
ing on the corner of Main and Bird streets
The rooms fronting on Bird and Main, on the
first floor were leased some time ago for bank
ing house, though not at present in actual use
for that purpose; yet outside and within they
are fitted up in very handsome style. a large
store room, also on the first floor, fronting OH
Maine street, and running back the whole
length Of the building, will shortly be occupied
BY Wilson & Brothers, who have rented II for
hardware store, and intend keeping very
NaTge stock. The three rooms in The second
Npry over the banking house have been rented
1or the use of the Directors and Engineers of
the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad. The
front room is already carpated and partly fur
nished. ... H.. .t
The remainder of the building is not yet fin
ishsd, but the rooms on the second and third
Aoors, are we'll arranged for Offices, except a
largo hall in the third story, which will proba-
bly, b used FOR public meetings, or rented to
societies. "a. .-...
Altogether so much taste and judgement have
been kisplayed by Mr., Collins in the construc-
tion and arrangement of this building, that we
hope others who may build hereafter, will EN-.

We notice every day that the side walks, all

SO muddy that it is impossible to walk outside

SO covered with lumber, that there is scarcely

SILVER CctS.--We observed yesterday, on
eur wharf, ihirty-fve boxes containing n,
many thousand dollars, in charge of Col. South.
cashier of the Palmyra Branch of the Bank Of
the State Missouri, which he shipped on the
Die Vernon. .,. .....,..' ..'
bee We understand that the Colonel was ship.
ping to be re-coined, under the late act Of
Congress. II is to be hoped that silver coin,
and small change will soon become now plenti.
tul. AT present, silver is commodity Of COM
merce, and has ceased 10 be the standard Of val
0e. The premium on it, over gold, and the
common currency of the country, has driven it
sut Of general circulation, .. BON ....t
s To supply this vacuum, the merchant, me-
chInic and laborer have been compelled to re-
ceive and pay out the small bills of unknown,
and often the most esponsible banks of distant
States. r A
Meantime they are driven 10 hoard up gold
and silver, and to sell it TO the banks for ex-
change, and such money as will be received for
goods in the East, at the very points from
whence comes large proportion of the shin
plaster currency which they are compelled to
receive. We wonder not at the unnatural posi-.
ton into which they are driven. But we do
wonder, and are astonshed, at the neglect and
refusal of Missouri, SO long protesting devO-
ticn to hard money, and sound and converti-
Die circulation, why she should fail to compel
her bank TO supply the small bills as substi-
tute for silver, which the laws of trade with
draw from the State; and by which the worth
less trash, foreign shinplasters, might be ban
ished, we cannot divine! The local position of
Missouri, and the commerce OF the States in the
valley Of the Mississippi not only require, but
will sustain. the largest banking facilities of
any section Of the Union. This is known and
acknowledged! Why do not the representa-
tiyes Of the people avail themselves and the
State Of these advantages? The State is of age,
and is no longer, under dictatorship. Why
will not the people act?
The idea of banishing from our borders
sound and convertible paper circulation, and
substituting gold and silver with the premium
thus invited and secured, does not now exist,
except in the Imagination of the most gaseous
political fanatic.
We are opposed to one currency for the office
holder, and another for the people-whch is
now in full practical force.
