THE CINCINNATI BRoKERs.-The Chicago Tri.

article with the following just and well-timed
observations. But suppose the disease should
extend, and become contagion among the
sympathisers and abettovs of these Cincinnati
money changers, the bankers and shinplaster

"While we cannot but regret that great in

deed, every class of community from these fail
ureS. we have little or no sympathy for these
Bankers. They are receiving but a just return
for the course they have pursued, as brokers,
towards the paper money institutions of Ohio,
Indiana and Illinois For years they have
been leagued together in war upon all char
tered paper money institutions which they
could reach, and have been successful in Grip
ping them SO as to mcasurabiy destroy their
usefulness. The President of the branch OF
the State Bank of Indiana at Michigan City
informed us, several weeks since. that that
Bank had been compelled to pay about Sl25,-
900 in specie on its paper to these Cincinnati
Brokers, in the course of three months and
all the branches ofthe State Bank have been run
npon in similar manner. The object of the
Brokers has been to break down the good
banks or drive them out of business, depre-
clate the currency, and then loan money and
sell exchanges at their own rates and buy up,
alta discount. the very paper money which
they had discredited.

received up to the hour of going to press
They very clearly indicate the choice of the
whole fusion State ticket by considerable ma
jortics, and of three of the four fusion candi-
dates for Congress, viz. Messrs Howard, Wal
dron and Walbridge. The chances, we think,
are in favor Of the success Of Mr.. Peck in the
Fourth District. The returns from the senate
rial and representative district are meagre, but
we do not doubt that a majority Of ftisionists
have been elected to the Houses.

MAINE BANKs.-We find the following para
graph in the Portland Advertiser of the 9th:
Papers abroad speak Of trouble among the
Maine Banks The only trouble thus far is
with the Ellsworth Bank. The Shipbuilders'.
Brunswick, and Bank of TIallowell bills are
now received currently, and the Ellsworth bills
are taken by many traders. There are no
sounder banks in the country than those Of our
State. if in fact there are any on such good
footing.'
In addition to the above, we are requested
to copy the following extract from letter
dated
"HALLOwRIL, Me-. Nov. l, 1854.
The Bank of Hallowell is not broken. crip-
pied. or in anywise troubled. The Suffolk Bank
threw out the Hallowell bills, on account of the
neglect of the agents of the Hallowell bank to
redeem on the 25th ult., but that has had no
effect. and the bank has not been called upon
for $4,000. The bank is probably the strong
est bank in the State. 1t has never lost dol
lar-it has not a dollar Of bad paper. and is
strong and sound in every way aud shape"
