Gov. Walker RESIGNS.

Root. J. WALKER, the "Great Pacif-
Gator" has found that he could not suit the
Administration, 4. e., the S ave Power, and
has been ~"relucIantly compelled" to resign.
He has written an address 10 the American
people on the subject, which is said TO be
quite a voluminous document. The fight
thickens. WALKER and the Illinois Giant
are waging a war which viii shake the
Democratic party 20 its foundation. We
give extracts from DOUGLASS speech on
the Lecompton swindle in to. days paper
If he should mainta n The position he has
taken. the Administration will find him
hard to h ndle. He is far the ablesi De.
batter tie party has on the floors of the
Sena!e.

restrain their operations within proper limits,
andthereby insure to the country all the benefits
they are capable of comforting, without the ac-
companying hazards of wild speeulations and
ruinous revulsions.
In closing my observations on this subject, it
is proper to state that these recommendation are
not formed in any spirit of hostility to these cor
p~orations and companies, nor am l insensible o
their vast importance in the commercial system
of the United States. Nor have any disposition
tie denouuee any punishment,nor to subject them
to any loss, in the present conjunction of their af-
fairs. My object is to place them in subsection
to wholesome LAWS, SO that, while the benefits
they yield to the community may be preserved,
their excuses or errors will be counteraeted or
prevented.
The details of any act, formed on the principle
l have suggested, should be adopted after an
enlarged inquiry into their condition, and should
embOdy the most liberal provisions for the secu-
rity of the rights of the persons interested in
them. \ reasonable time should also be allowed
to the corporations wi;ch are nov in default, to
reestablish themselves before this act becomes
operative.
A great variety of topics rela tive to the fnan.
eial operations of the g-overnmentare ably treated
in this report. 1t is probable that an issue o
treasury notes to the amount of twenty millions
of dollars will be neeessitated to meet the -exi
gencies OF the government. The entire report
may he read with interest and profit by all bust
ness men, and to their attention We commend it

from the brain OF any American Statesman,
(the Hulseman letter not a%ccepted,) say
that the Constitution on ght to be submitted
tosthe free and unrestrinaed vote of the peo-
pie! Now in view of all this, why is it that
you follow thus a losing suit" in endeav-
to uphold the administration? You
know too, that it was nothing but the as
surances made by your party, that the peo-
pie OF Kansas should have the privilege of d
fair Impression Of their opinions, and a
vindieatien OF their rights at the ballot-box,
that placed Mr.. Buchanan where he is.
And can your party think you will remain
trm and united, if he continues his present
course! Now, we as a friend, would just
like to warn you that there are breakers
ahead. Mr.. Douglas you know is anxious
10 be President, and from present appear
ances we think it likely be viii be the next
Democratic candidate for that office. And
as success seems 10 be the only point aimed

becomes you to wisely consider the 'signs

In conclusion We would just like to ash
you a civil question or two. In the

which you published a few weeks since; it
appears as if by some means or other. yo:
made a very important omission. viz: The
latter clause of the 18th section, which
reads: '.Jut no alteration shall be zIqds L

before Us, you have printed it in full. Now
did you honestly priut that l4th section TIT

did you insert i. now! Did you think th
PEG pie would not read it, and therefore you

BALTIMORE, Sept. 26.--Baltimore
Banks.-The suspension since ten o'clock
has been total, with the exception Of ac-
commodating their customers with few
dollars in change. There is no run on
the Savings Banks: we have but three,
and the most ignorant know they are as
safe as the mint.
The merchants seem to be gratifedwith
the suspension. Money on the street,
which YESTERDAY commanded two and a
half per cent, has fallen to-day TO one. -
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Stock
has advanced five dollars per share.
The Farmers and Mechanics Bank is
cashing all its notes and paying its checks
in notes on the other city banks. All the
other banks have fully suspended, bui
are sill furnishing their customers with
change. The excitement is subsiding
and the money market is easier. Much
surprise is expressed that the banks o.
