No doubts his honesty Of purpose, or his ability
to redeem all the certincates he issues but he has
violated the laws, and set an example, which, if fol-
lowed, may lead to disaster and ruin.

By the Mexican schooner Aquila, Captain Ynchos-

have received broken files of papers from Vera Cruz
and the city Of Mexico to the 10th ult.
We learn verbally that shortly before the Aquila

Fifteen days since the Chamber Of Deputie elected Juan

The chief clerk sent to the Chamber draft Of bill

ments were made for that purpose. The procession
was formed In the afternoon, and proceeded to the
church on the principal plaza. Nearly all the cit-
Zens of Matamoras took part in the ceremonies. In
secretly decided to join the revolution and second the
plan Of Jalsco, had anticipated this occasion as a
favorable for the accomplishment Of their object
Their plan Of operations if we are correctly in
formed, were as follows-Taking advantage Of this
public demonstration, men were secretly TO be placed
commanding officer, General Avaos, and at all the
other strong points of the city, and at precon-
certed sgnal-the firing of two guns from the plaza
they were to make simultaneous rush, secure the
person of the General and possession OF his defcnces
Owing TO some accident, however, the plan was
prematurely divulged, and the General had time to
partially defeat the intentions of his enemies. The
insurgents however, succeeded in taking possession
Of the most favorable positions, and combining the
General to the single square in which his quarters
were situated.
The General retained all the artillery and the ma
jority Of the men. while the insurgents, under Col.
Quintena with the remainder Of the regular soery,
and portion Of the citizens, took positions immedi-
atey around and commanding the quarters of Gen.
Ayalos and thus the firing commenced the pro-
nunciad0es from the church and neghboring house
tops upon Gen. Avalos' troops, who returned the
compliment with iron messengers from their artil.
The firing was kept up until about II o'clock at
night, when a parley was sounded, resulting in a
cessation Of hostilities.
From that time to this (Monday) the respective
parties have been negotiating with each other though
with what result we unable to say correctly; we
trust in manner to stop all future contention The
side, is said to be uncomfortable. Great suffering
among the citizens Of Matamoras must, however, be
the inevitable consequence OF the affair.

According to this, there has been an increase,
from June to December, in loans and discounts, Of
$l359s l54 in circulation, 5475 ,l53; in deposits,
$3.50 1885, and decrease in specie, Of 81 ,ol0,6l3.
From September to December an increase in dis

circulation So 4sl 443 and in deposits Of So 46
From June to December the increase in discounts
was much greater than in deposits, which is rather
an unusual thing. The general movement shows an
expansion unprecedented in the history of banking
in this State. 1t is full time to give turn or two to
the screws.

branches for the LIST Of January 1862 and 1853 pre-

A great many Of the inhabitants were by this time
thoroughly frightened, and believed the city to be
doomed place. So, with this impression, they re-
solved to smigrate to some other safer part OF the
island. The two steamers plying semi-monthly be.
tween st. Jago and Havana were entirely engaged
for three voyages in advance; and very many not
wishing 10 remain longer, Of for their turn in the
steamer chartered small droghers to transport them
to the western part Of the island.
There can b no doubt that these series Of calam-
ties will produce q disheartening effect upon the
commerce of the southeast part of Cuba during 1885,
but should there be return Of such misfortunes,
