Warrington. the belief became general that Bal
timore and Phila. telphia would next fall into their
hands. A run upon the banks began Immediately,
under which those IN Baltimore suspended, those
of Philadelphia suspe,diDg on the Both, and New
York two days after Vet, only six days previous
TO their suspension, the New-York banks resolved
that in the opinion of THIS meeting, there does
." not exist any necessity Tor suspension OF
" specie payments" Thus unexpectedly did the
blow fall upon them. This suspension was EVIL
IDENTIFY precipitated by foreign invasion, generct-
irg political, not monetary panic.
The suspension we now witness Is the direct
offspring of political panic. Heretofore these col
lapses have been regarded as periodical, actually
occurring every twenty years or 30, and there
fore likely to occur no oftener But into the
MISUNDERSTOOD programme Of commercial psncs
causing monetary suspensions We seem to be
n danger of interpoatng the political panic,
showing itself az suddenly and running its course
as dsastrously. Financial eloquence has been
exhausted the world over, to detect the causes Of

ing imports, coin must speedily begin to flow in
this direction.
In this newly-opened field of investigation, there
are facts which stand up with great prominence.
Chief among them is this--that every bank sus.
pension We have had in this country, excepting
that produced by the landing of the British army,
has been caused, directly indirectly, either by
the oyershadowing influence of the slave interest
on the policy of the country, or BY the fears
which its threats have excited.

lack competent and trustworthy leaders. But

sUsPRNsIONa.

The philosophy of bank suspensions is not one
of the exact sciences. There is no certain for
mula by which to calculate the when, the how
or the where, of their appearance. They are
more erratc than the comets. The advent Of
these eccentric luminares may be calculated Il
the day. but bank suspensions come upon you
like thief in the night. In March, 1887, Gen.
Jackson quit the Presidency uttering mock hero.
les of having used his humble efforts to restore
the Constitutional currency, and Of leaving "this
great country prosperous and happy" In
about sixty days succeeding this magnificent
flourish of the spread-eage, the whole banking
fabric Of the country topped over into suspen-
sion, uncoyeriDg, in its progress from suspension
TO liquidation, mass Of moral and pecuniary
rottenness that staggered public credulity. The
transition ia even more sudden now. Who, four
weeks ago, could have believed that the banks
south Of this city would before this time have
been forced TO suspend No mans experience
could supply fact in his history, or in ours as
q nation, TO justify the suppositiOn. But there
stands the fact, astonishing though it be TO US,
and still more astonishing as it will appear in
the eyes of oil Europe.
This suspension is the second in this country
growing out of what may be called political
panics. During the war with England the Gov.
eminent of this country was compelled to rely
on the banks for means TO prosecute the war
In March 1914, Pennsylvania chartered forty.one
banks in one bill. The Government offered great
inducements to these and other banks TO sub
scribe for loans, and the whole banking interest
responded not only by subscribing, but by dis
counting largely, so that others might subscribe
This system of paying for Government paper
with bank notes resulted in an enormous expan-
sion of the currency. Coin was at one time 40
per cent dearer than bank notes, or rather the
latter was 40 per cent below coin. All kinds
of merchandise rose to war prices, not only be-
cause OF redundant currency but because our
ports were blockaded by the British Some of
the New-Engand ports were not very vigorously
bockaded, no doubt with the design of permit.
ting specie to escape. Through these ports, and
into Canada, specie did find an outlet for the
purchase of goods, and to such an extent as
wholly to demoralize the currency.
On the 9th of April, 1914 the New. Orleans
banks suspended, and the news reached Philade.
phia in the latter part of May. Yet the intel.
gence created neither excitement nor panic. as
the citizens OF NewOrlcans alleged the suspension
to proceed from local causes and want of har.
mony among the banks themselves. The Northern
banks continued cash payments through the Sum
mer, unaffected By the occurrences ut New-Or.

An interesting point for speculation just bow
is found in the question whether Virginia will
ultimately go with the Cotton States in TIA
formation Of their Negro Confederacy, or whether
she will remain in the Union. An intelligent
writer in The Journal Of Commerce argues hat
she must Of necessity join the reyolutionists, be-
cause otherwise they will exclude her neros
from their markets and will supply the demnd
Of their planters for more slaves from the cheaper
product of Africa. BY going with them, Virginia
will still be able to keep possession Of their mar.
kets and to prevent the reopening Of the African
slaye-trade. There is some force in these sag.
gestions, but they can hardly apply to tina. part
of Virginia which lies west Of tho Aileghaoy
Mountains. In that portion of the State tbers
are few slaves, and negro breeding is by 10
means the predominant interest of the people,
who may not wish TO go into q Confederation
based on negroes alone. OF course, while State
is seeding from the Union it cannot cOnsistsoly
object should any considerable body of its cs-
zens also secede from the State, and organic
new central authority for themselves.

We learn that the Hon. GEORGE BRIGGs, N.

Washington. In common with others of our
statesmen, Mr.. Briggs feels patriotic and anx-
iOus interest in the dangers of the crisis, and is
resolved, if possible, to act the part of media
tor between the seeding States and the Union.

the Missouri Compromise line west to the Rocky

plan Mr.. Briggs will doubtless bring forward at

speech appealing to parties on both sides TO allay
their angry passions and join in n devoted fra
