The ATLANTA BANK UNDER PRorEsr.-We are
informed on reliable authority, that the bills of
the Atlanta to the amount of 81 900, are now UNI
der protest, that legal proceedings will be forth
with instituted to forfeit and annul the charter.
The following the circumstances, we are
informed A gentleman from Illinois called at
the Bank Immediately after the opening of its
doors in the morning, and presented $35 900 for
redemption, and during the whole forenoon the
Bank only counted $lO,000-which could have
been accomplished easily in thirty minutes, the
packages were made up of bills of IS and up
wards, and put up in packages of SIS 600 EACH In
the afternoon the payment of the remaining $685.
600 was demanded by Notary, who was paid all
bu, $4,000, when he was ordered by the Bank Of.
fcers out of the Bank, whercupon he proceeded
to protest that amount.
At the former period, only few weeks since,
the Bank of Atlanta, and the Bank of the Interi-
or, ut Griffin, kept an agent waiting about eight
days, before they paid him 100000 which was
presented by him.
Our Statutes requires that all Banks shall pay
their bills "promptly on demand" and in case
of failure, the Governor, on proof, there Of, is
required to proceed against them to forfeit and
annul their charters.
That the Bank of Atlanta has in this instance
clearly forfeited its charter there is reasonable
doubt. For every man, familiar with Banking
custom, knows, that S35, 600 could be counted
and paid as we'll in two hours as two days. And
the Bank failed to pay sspromptly" in the Ian
guage Of the law, it has therefore forfeited its
Charter. rx,

DISCOVERY OF DIAMONDS IN VIRGINIA.-On Mon
day, the 9th of August, a most singular discov-
cry of two diamonds was made ut ''Dudley's Fer
rvs" King and Queen county, the residence of
William Brooks, Esq. A correspondent of the
Richmond Wing, details the circumstances of the
discovery of these diamonds, which are indeed,
somewhat remarkable. 1t appears that as Mr..
Taylor was engaged saving the timbers for a boat
out of an oak root, his saw struck some hard SUBJ
stance, which upon being punched out and exam
ined, was found to be diamond of the size of a
black eyed pea-shortly after a smaller one was
also found in the same root. The teeth of both
saws were knocked out by the contact.
The oak tree to which this root belonged was
probably hundred and fifty years old, and was
growing a few weeks ago in the ground bordering
upon swamp upon MIR. T.'s place. These 6ia-
monds were in shape octahedron,a s most diamonds
in their naturalstate-- course they cut glass
finely and were translucd, apparently of the first
water. When found they were imbedded two or
three inches from the surface Of the root, causing
a defect in the wood for some distance around.
Can any one state another instance of diamond
being found as these were, buried in a root be-
meath tho ground probably for hundred and
fifty years.
1t will be remembered that about year ago,
lahorer while digging in the streets Of Manchester.
Just opposite Richmond, discovered diamond, a
few feet below the surface of the earth, which
proved to be one of enormous size, and was valu-
ed at some four or five thousand dollars. Con-
meet the recent discovery with the of last year
and it would seem that there are Macy of these
precious stones inbedded in the soil Of old Vir-
ginia. 1870 ra.at 300

states that some weeks since a gentleman OF
Boston was travelling in the West and while

cred at his house there, was 81 IS per Dbl.
