lsualness on the River.

Business on the river, is increasing. There
were but few arrivals of passengers, by the
first boats after the opening of navigation (;
but this can be accounted for by the fact
that navigation opened approximately
early, and before the usual spring emigration
had set in. The Gdlcnn arrived Saturday,
from Dunleith, however, having brought
nearly three hundred passengers into the
State. Her officers assert, that the Packet
Company were in receipt Of letters, daily,

A Santa Fe correspondent of the N. Y.
Herald gives a graphic account of the hard.
ships attending the journey of Captain
MARCY from Fort Bridger, the headquarters
of the army of Utah, across the mountains,
to New Mexico. The party, numbering
forty'thrce all told, left the Fort on the 18th
OF November, and reached Santa Fe about
the 25th of January. The route they pass
cd over had never before been traversed in
mid winter. In the mountains they en-
countered snow storms of great severity
storms such as the intrepid Fremont was
compelled to turn his back upon. In one
stretch OF two hundred and fifty miles, the
party waded through snow from two to
twelve feet in depth.
For eleven days they subsisted on mule
and horse meat, without bread or so much
as a pinch Of salt. 1t is marvel that, not
withstanding these hardships, but one Of the
men died on the route, though many of them
were badly frostbitten. The animals of the
expedition suffered severely. Forty out OF
sixty Of them died Of cold and starvation
Capt MARCY was sent TO New Mexico to
purchase animals for the army, and was to
return to Fort Bridger as soon as his ar
engagements were completed, escorted by a
force competent to protect him from the at
tacks of the Mormon guerrlas.

The great demonstration, heralded by
three distinct calls by THE State Central

Courthouse, and was very Indifferent fule.
A small congregation assembled at late

characteristic speech from Gov. GoRxAs.

A statement which originally appeared in
the Pioneer 4 Democrat, supported by na-
merous instances Of the safe and beneficial
experience Of American States, who have
loaned their credit 10 Railroads, was repeat.
cd by the members Of the Legislature, and
also by several newspapers, and because the
Minnesot,an sapposs that some triding ex-
captions to The general rule have occurred in
New York, charge Of alsehood" Ia
thrown pronlscuously about.
Our opinion was formed after careful in
quiry, nor DO We think it necessary to yiBdi'
cate our own sincerity, or that Of those who
have repeated il on our authority We
found that Canada has in this way material
ly aided her Trunk road-that Massacha-
sets has loanel the public credit to the
amount of 5000 j5 and will doubtless
assist the lIo0sac Tunnel to the same tx.
tent that Maryland has thus aided one
company III the sum VI S3,200000, and
another in the sum Of 81 5O0,000-that
Tennessee has authorized $4,000 900, Of
railroad bonds, Of which about 81 5000. 900
arc issued that Missouri has granted her
State Credit to $24, $50 900 with 81 900,
600 already issued, while Virginia, South
Carolina, Florida, Alabama and Texas, ac-
cording to newspaper account, have swelled
the aggregate TO one hundred millions Of
dollars, with this remarkable result THAT
sor STATE HAS LEVIED OR PAID SINGLE
DOLLAR on TAXATION FOR INTEREST OR rRIS-
cIrLg oY BosDs 20 Issued.
We should have mentioned New York as
an exception but our impression was and
ia that the aid TO the New York and Erie
road. and other Less important enterprises,
was intended ~ a gift from the start--as IA
compensation to the Southern counties and
other sections, not Immediately interested in
the canals then in course Of construction,
and therefore not analogous to what is pro-
posed here. Whatever the form of these
transactions, such was their real nature.
Accordingly Now York released the New
York and Erie road from the whole amount
advanced-na namely, three millions Of dollars.
Until the force Of the numerous exam
pies above cited is broken, the attempt to
impute to us, or to the members of the Leg
isaturc, purpose to utter falshoods in
this matter can pass for what il is worth.

THoMPsos's Reporter Of the LIST inst,
mentions, as gratifying fact that Of the
great number Of banks which were thrown
out and proclaimed broken by the Suffolk
Bank of Boston and the Metropolitan Bank
OF New York, only very few have really
failed. The Reporter says:
Maine had ~ banks in good standing in
August, four of which have failed, viz ::
HaIlowell, Grocers', Hancock and Sanford
New Hampshire had So banks only one
the Exeter, has failed.
Vermont had 43 banks two only the
Dandy and the South Royalton, have failed
Massachusetts had l73 banks one only,
the Western Bank, Of Springfield, has been
closed, and the notes Of this are redeemed in
full.
Rhode Island, the only New England
State where stockholders are individually
liable, has caused more loss to the people
than all the other Eastern States. She had
100 banks, o: which have failed, viz. ::
South County, Farmers, Hopkinton, X. l.
Central, Republic, and Tiverton. Most of
these had large circulation.
Connecticut had 50 banks 4 have failed,
viz: North America, Colchester, Mer.
chants Exchange, and Granite. The first
will resume soon, and the two last were
shut up before the panic commenced, 10y the
Bank Commissioners, because they were not
properly organised.
New York City had 55 banks in good
credit when the panic broke out. the notes
of which are all redeemed at par, and the
depostors OF all except the Island City are
being paid in full.
New York State had 213 banks in active
business and good credit, of which have
failed to redeem their notes, viz: Orleans
Hamilton Exchange, Ontario, Pratt OF Buf
iaio, reciprocity alias Sacket's Harbor, and
Yates County. Several Others have gone
into liquidation, and il is uncertain yet
whether the depositors can oil be paid in
full.
New Jersey had SO banks; the America,
the Bergen County and the Morris County
are the only ones now remaining in diseredit.
II is contidentially stated that the Morris
County will resume soon.
According TO the recent report OF the
New York Bank Superintendent, the Sa-
wings banks in that State hold On deposit
upwards OF tor,y-ont m'iIIons Of dollars, be-
longing to 203,so4 deposi,ors. The aver.
age TO each depositor is s2O3 "a. During
the last year upwards of two millions OF
dollars was paid as interest About oue-
fifteenth Of the entire population are deposi.
tors in Savings banks. As a general thing,
the management Of these institutions has
been unexcepticnable, Between two and
three millions OF unclaimed deposits have
lain so long in the banks that there Is it'll,
if any probability Of any owner ever calling
for them
