II COURSE. all tho talk Of our exchanges, north
cast, west and south. As usual in all such cases
spectators profound and deeply and dimly
mystic pretend to account for the cause of al
tho Suspensions Of the Banks and eolapscs o.
private individuals. Like the timid people in
tho song
.one snid q vs. ev0ar ioaf,
It strikes us the sugar part OF the song is al.
together applicable these times The papers
arc all busy advising the banks to hold on to
the specie and tho people to hold on to the
banks "All hands round" is good, sociable adj
vice, whether In q dance or in money matters.
Some Of the papers seem to think that the
banks do not deserve as much clcmency as the
people, tho business men, hayo extended to thom,
Tor thatgcneruliy they consult then own interests
Without reference to the good of the commune
les In which they arc located. We do not
think that our business men here in Wheeling,
!csl 80 towards our banks, because We think that
1t Is undcnlsblc that orr banks have been dis.
posed to help all sound enterprise. However,
the rcbulc will nat DO lost perhaps, when all is
right again.
We sec that the Presidents of some of the
principal New York Banks have published the
following:
The undersigned, having been called upon to
give their opinion as regards the effect likely to
30 produced upon tho banks Of this city by tho
suspension of the institutions of the neighbour
ing cities, reply, thatit IS their decided opinion
that tho banks Of tho city Of New York are ina
safe and secure position, and that they can not
only sustain themselves as Specic-paying banks,
but from the natural flow Of coin and produce
to this point asa common centre, they will soon
be ablc to furnish further and more efficient aid
the tho mercantile community.
Some of the Baltimore papers arc after New
York. They arc in a bad humOr with New
York, and it breaks out in one Of them as fol-
lows, which doubtless is true:
Il Is true that the banks Of Massachusetts and
New York continue as yet to pay specie on de-
mand, butt docs not follow from this that they
arc In q really better condition than the banks
Of Pennsylvania or Maryland. Public conf
dence alone SnstainS the Eastern instituhonsi If
that was wanting they would be compelled on
tue instant to succuInb. We ventuae, however,
TO assert, that if New York had not been large
" aided by liberal disbursements from the Sub.
Treasury, the institutions there would have
been the first to suspend.
In reading through pile Of our State OK
changes, NO find that the Virginia banking law
provides that upon the formal Judgment OF in
formation Of the suspension of specie payment
by bank of this State, it must be put into
liqidation. OF course everybody feels assured
in thebclicf thatthe Legislature, at its aPProah-
ing session, taking all the circumstances into
consideration, viii rclievo the suspeuding banks
from the penalty.
Besides tho bank news there is little else Of
interest in the papers. Tho news by the for
cign mails contains some accounts of recent
fighting In India. There is an account of an
other horrid massacre Of Europeans
In tho New York papers we notice that tn
Jurdeil case is up in tho shape Of the fec bill
Of the NJ DIS, who OGiciatcd at the time Of tn
bogus RceOuehmsnt, when II was thought dc
sirablO to ascertain about the "blood in th
