The LAST VESSEL FROM THE WRECK OF THE
CENTRAL AMERICANA MORE LIVES SAVED
Boston, Sept. 24.-The mysterious or unknown
schooner which passed under the stern of the lost
steamer Central America on the evening of the
wreck, and regarding which mention has been
made in several statements of the passengers
proves to have been the schooner FL Dorado,
Captain Stone. She arrived at this port this after
noon, and the captain makes the following report:
Son the 18th instant, in lat. % 40 long. rs 90
experienced terrible hurricane, during the prev
alence Of which she lost her mainsail On the
18th, at half past p. m, in lat. 81 %, lon n 10,
spoke the steamer Central America, the wind at
the time blowing a gale. We laid under her lee
until 80 the following morning. Her lights dis
appeared at 40 minutes after the previous even
ing. Wore ship and run as near as possible to
the spot, but saw nothing of the wreck or the
passengers, either from the deck or aloft"
1t had been hoped that this schooner, the lights
Of which had still been seen by some OF the res
cued after the wreck, had succeeded in picking
up some of the unfortunate passengers bat she
neither brings any nor did she see anything Of
them or the vessel on the morning following the
distressing calamity. The painful inference is,
therefore, that the remainder of the passengers,
officers and crew will meyer be heard from more.

Bank Suspension.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 25--The Bank Of Pennsyl.
vania in this city, has suspended specie payments
by resolution of the Board Of Directors.
There Is much excitement in consequence.
The Bank of PennsylvIia's suspension Is com.
plete but the President says it was caused by the
action of other banks against it, and the losses
sustained by recent failures of dry goods men.
He so says that it will be only temporary, and
that the capital is untouched.
The Girard Bank is giving specie for its notes,
but depostors' checks will not be honered until
one o'clock a lag Hs
There is heavy run on the City Bank, and all
the counters Of Banks are beseiged with depos.
tors and not holders.
There is much alarm, and almost suspension
Of business.
1Hp.m.--The Girard Bank is only paying specie
fr Sc" and los, the larger notes and checks
being refused.
The Commercial Bank, and several Others, are
taking the same course, promising to resume full
business tomorrow. r.
The excitement is intense 49,. g.
