TO THE COACH.MAKERs OF NORTH.
CAROLINA.

TINH L UNDERSIGNED, COACH-MAKERS, ARE
painfully impressed with the idea that they are not
sufficiently remuner'ed for their labor in carrying on their
business.
While they have reason to complain Of the patronage
they receive and feel under the highest obligations their
customers and friends yet they find themselves instead Of
realizing moderate profit, with which they would be con-
tent, struggling from year to year to meet the liabilities
they compelled to incur in the prosecution Of their bus
mess They not prepared to adopt the conclusion that
such condition Of things exists in NortCarona as ne.
cessay 10 cause enterprise and labor in their line of bust
to 20 without just compensation and hence they are
inclined 10 the opinion that considerable extent The
fault lies with the CoachMakers themselves How stands
the with their brethren elsewhere throughout The
Sate2 Are they in thriving circumstances or noiY II not
do they agree with that the thing adnis Of remedy
feel confident if they carried the result would be
alike favorable TO our patrons and ourselves but prefer
have friendly conference with brethren throughout
the State and therefore deem it improper to make any sug
gesiions here.
In urtherance of our object propose that Conyen
ton Of the CoachMakers of NorhCarOina be held at Ra
leigh before the end of the current year. for the purpose
taking the matter into consideration; and we would sg
gest the meeting of the State Agricultural Fair the most
suitable time.
We invite brethren to respond without delay this
call either through the newspapers or by letter addressed
to any one of u.s.

BANK OF THE STATE OF Souri, CARoLNA.--The
Charleston papers confirm the Geographic reports Of
the suspension OF specie payments oy the Bank Of
the State of South Carolina. A writer in the Char
lesion Standard (who is said to be familiar with the
subjecD says 1T is not known, nor is II believed
that any special cause has Occosoned this result
by reference to the monthly Bank Statements for
the last few years. it will appear that the circulation
deposits and other liabilities of the Bank about
the same they have been its specie, exchange for
eign and domestic and other cash assets have not
been diminished; and the calamity, therefore, is one
to which all the Banks in Charleston, and particu.
larry the Bank OF the State, must be always liable
under the present system of exchange.
The Charleston Evening Netcs of Saturday says
This banking institution of the State was compel
led by unavoidable circumstances to suspend. A
good deal Of excitement on the announcement, per.
vades our community There is however no just
cause of panic-such panic as will induce an unne-
cessary run on the other Banks. The liberay Of
this Bank in accommodating the people, when mel.
ther funds nor currency could be obtained from 9th.
er quarters had extended its discount and crcu-
lation lines, that when the other banking nstitu-
tons, insisting constant discharges Of balances
in specie between them-an unwise and incongruous
measure at this crisis, press upon it, its sus
pension became inevitable.
The notehoders and depostors need not however
apprehend any loss unless in their panic they choose
to sacrifice their securities. The immediate liability
on bills and deposites is about million and half.
This is but small proportion of the assets Of the
Bank, which are unquestionnble. Its discount line
Of promissory notes, its bonds, its exchange, its
stocks &c. all of which are readable in a limited
period, are nearly treble these liabilities.
In addition to the amplitude Of the assets and the
general soundness Of the Bank, the State stands as
guaranor ofits eventual liquidation Of all demands.
The rumor of the suspension Of other banks is
unfounded. We have reason to believe they will
pay on to the last

the liquidation of the actual Indebtedness Of the

correct thinking and udicious persons, as well as
my own that it would DO sound policy and economy
to dispose Of all the stock owned by the State IN
Banks and Internal Improvement Companies, or
otherwise as soon as II be done on advantageous
terms and to apply the proceeds Of the sale OF the
same to the reduction Of the actual Indebtedness OF
the State and for the State practicable to
become entirely disconnected with all corporations
