BANKING House or TALLANT & WTLDE.--An
illustration of the amount of capital which often
lies unemployed in this city, is shown in the late
Withdrawal Of their funds by the dcpositors from
the bank Of Messrs. Talant & Wilde. 1t had
been the custom of the house TO keep in New
York a reserved fund in the hands Of James
Robb a. Co., Of 100000, for contingent expen-
ses, such. for instance, as the meeting Of the
drafts from California. During the financial
troubles eastward, Rsbb becoming involved,
used that money for his own purposes as o
partner of the house--an act which resulted it
is well known. in their drafts being returned
protested. Messrs. Tsllant& Il Wilde immediate
ly notified their d"positors here Of the facts
and TO draw out their deposits--an act of 40
honorable character as to increase II possible
the confidence had in them hy the business com
munity. The notification had the effect Of pro.
ducing run on the bank. so that in three days
5000, 900 were Withdrawn. reducing the amount
of deposits to $50 000 II is fair 10 presume
that 5000 900 Of this is now lying idle in pri-
vate vaults or in special deposits. awaiting the
time when the house shall have settled accounts
with Robb Il Co.. when it will be re-deposited.
Thus above half a million Of dollars are set
aside from the nsnal requirements Of trade.
showing that II there bc any Ftrngcney in the
money market, it is owing not so much to the
lack Of specie. ms to the nervous anxiety with
which capitalists ragard the securities upon
which to loan its. +. Times.

Brigham Young and the Indians.

A correspondent connected with Col John
sons Utah Expedition, denies that the Indians
are anxious to lend assistance to the Mormons
in the contemplated war with the U. S. troops.
He says:
Brigham Young has been very anxious to
secure the aid and cooperation of the Indian
tribes of Utah and its vicinity in his present
reasonable aad rebellous opposition 10 the Co
vernment of the United States have 1t from
the best authority that he spared no efforts to
induce Wah-sa-kee, the Chief Of the great Sho-
sbonee or Snake tribe, to become his contede-
rate, promising any amonnt of -four. provisions,
&c. for himself and tribe, If he would Ouly side
with the Morm0ns in the approaching contest,
But old Wah-sa-kee, who, for one of his race
is very intelligent aud wise man, was neither
to be cajoled or Inveiged by the sanity Brig
ham; or bribed by his -four and bran, into enter
ing into any such league with him. His reply
to Brigham have from one perfectly familiar
with the Sh0shonee language, and who was
present aud heard it. The skin Of the Mormon
is white, that OF the blue-coats is also white
My skin is dark. / will war with none Of the
white race; II white man strikes me will not
return the blow. If the Mormons will fight the
blue-coats, Wah-sa-kee will stand upon a hill
and look on, but will take no part His skin

are dark like his own, and if they trespass up
on his hunting grounds with them he will hghtr
When the armed hands of Mormon maranders
made their appearance on Green river and the
Sandy. Wah-sa-kee and his people withdrew
from there and pitched their lodges on the north
of the Red river mountains
AS the Shoshonees are powerful and nu-
merous tribe. and as the scene of the operations
of the army would to greater extent be in
their country, it was deemed advisable by Col.
johnson to have an interview with Wah-sa-kee
to confirm him in his good intentions, and to as
sure him that his people should not be molested
or interferpd with so long as they pursued the
wise and prudent course he had determined up
on. A runner was consequently despatched
after the Chief and the next evening he made
his appearance, with three or -four Of his tribe
at our camp. and Col. johnson and he had q
grand pow-wow which. ! believe, was highly
satisfactory to both sides Old Wah-sa-kee is q
splendid specimen Of his race, with most cx-
pressive and intelligent face"
