CLOSE OF THE SESSION

The Legislature, in all proba bility, will ad-
journ on Saturday night, leaving unfinished a
vast amount of the public business Not
withstanding the limitation of biennial ses-
sions, and of ninety days to each session,
there has been no limit of the quantity of
speechifying. Even the vast accumulation of
business at the close of the session, is not
sufficient to arrest the mania for talk 1t is
true that the disease is not epidemic, but
where it does take hold, it shows no mercy,
andproduces a general paralysis of Legislative
action.
Virginia is no nearer the consummation of
her great plans of Internal Improvement
than she was when the session commenced
The Covington and Ohio Railroad, upon
which she has appropriated million of dol
lars, is given the go-by, and this in face of
the prospect that two years must elapse be-
fore the Legislature will assemble again
What consideration of State policy has ar
rested the progress of this great work What
consideration of State policy does not demand
its vigorous prosecution? Why, then, is
Virginia left without this connection with the
West? We can find no reason for the hu-
initiating position to which she has been re-
duced, except the contracted and miserable
local jealousy, which, lift cannot accomplish
its own sectional advantages would see the
whole State thrown century behind the
age.
All around us is the roar of an active world,
and, on every side, rival States are rushing
onward with the wings of steam, to grasp the
rich fruits ofthe Ohio and Mississippi Valley.
In the midst of this great battle of enterprise,
the flag of Virginia is furled, and her bugle
sounds tie note of retreat Oh, for few
men OF the spirit and patriotism of those who
founded this Commonwealth, to arouse de-
generate race to deeds of energy and patriot
&c devotion worthy of their sires

Ran Ks,

There is great commotion in money mat
ters and what the end is to be, no man can
with certainty tell. Thus far, all Ohio
paper, except Circleville, is passing at par
Those who are best informed, think Circle
vile notes will yet be redeemed at their
face, and bill holders are advised not to suf-
fer heavy shave.
The City Banks Of Columbus, Miami Val.
ley Bank OF Dayton, and Canal Bank Of
Cleveland, have all suspended; their notes
however, continue to pass at par, as they
are secured dollar for dollar, by Ohio and
U S. Stocks Some have feared suspen-
sion of the State Bank, we do not be-
lieve this will take place. The State Bank
is believed to be strong, its circulation not
large, and it will be strongly for the inter,
est of each and all the branches to sustain
each other. Indiana Free Banks get into
worse and worse repute. The Auditor tells
the public that he will not sell the Stocks
to redeem the notes till he gets ready. We
advise every body to keep clear Of Indiana
Free Bank Notes. The old State Bank Of
Indiana is considered good.
Illinois money looks squally, i: is no bet
ter secured than Indiana. we think it not as
well. Three or four petty Banks in Chica-
go. have already failed. We advise our
friends to be shy Of Illinois money.
Michigan money we believe is accounted
safe. except Macomb County Bank, which
is regarded as somewhat doubtful.
Let all the people be determined, as SOON
possible, 20 have Banking System in ope-
ration in this State, which shall secure the
bill holder in any event
