day rejected by our brokers. Each day adds
aew ones to the list. Where it will end cannot
be determined There is now but one safe rule
and that is to take rs little paper money as pos
siblc, unless you know that the bills are secured
by safe stocks, and keep no others on hand
. This is necessary finale TO such an increase of
banks as we have had for the last few years.
So great an expansion of the currency was sure
to bring q crash, and Notwithstanding the re-
peated warnings. the banks have continued to
increase in an unprecedented ratio Here is the
list:
Maine--Bank of Holowell, Shipbuilders
Bank.
Indiana--All free banks.
Ohio--All banks except State Bank and BRAN
ches.
Connecticut--Wood bank, Middlctown
bank.
Ne,c York--Lewis County bank, Exchange
bank of Buffalo, City bank Of Buffalo.
Kentucky--All banks.
Minois--PhGnx bank, Farmers bank, Mer-
chants and Mechanics bank, City bank, of Chi
: A n l..
BelIvidere bank, Rock Island, Naperville bank,
of Rockford.
LATER.--We learn tonight that the State
banks and branches of Ohio and Indiana are re-
fused by the brokers of this city. If this is gen.
orally done, the effect will be far reaching, and
it would not surprise us to see a very general
suspension by the banks of the country. Stand
from under those that can.
