THE cousTRY AND THE CITY BANKS.


We are pleased to see that our country
Banks, or those in the valley Of the Susque-
hanna, have not succumbed TO the measures
adopted by the city Banks. in suspending
specie payments. A meeting was held at
Northumberland, on Wednesday last, at
which the Banks Of Northumberland, Shame
kin, Danville, Lewisburg. Wiliamsport, Jer.
sey Shore, Lock Haven and others, were
represented by their officers, who, after due
consultation, resolved to adhere to their
original position in refusing to follow the
action of the city Banks, in regard TO sus
pension. These Banks are all well couduc
ted aud sound in their resources, and depre
cate the policy Of the Philadelphia Banks,
which have, in effect, placed themselves and
their assets into the hands OF the brokers'
Our Banks oil have large balances due them
in the city Banks. With their country Gus.
toners they anticipate no trouble or difficulty,
aud il any of the city fnanciers should endea
vor to speculate in the currency, which by
their action they have deprecated, they will
we presume, be readily accommodated by
drafts on their own Banks for any amount
they may present. We are gratifed to see
that our Banks have the ability and inGepen-
dence to cut loose from the city Banks, in
refusing to adopt policy as injurious to their
interests as it is disagreeable 10 its opera.

have refused to suspend, and we regret our
Pbiadelphi institutions did not pursue the
same policy.

Personal CoINcIDENCEs.-The Pittsfeid
Eagle records some interesting condolences,
Alternative and others relating to three honored
and venerable citizens of that town. Rev. Dr.
Heman Humphrey aged 81, Hon. Henry h.
Childs, aged rs, and Hon. Henry HUBBARD
aged 76, respectively the oldest clergyman
physician, and lawyer in Berkshire County
and all holding high positions IN their pro.es.
sions. With respect to DIR. Cmlds, we are not
certain that DR.. TYLER, of Adams, is not his Sc
nior in wears. although his Junior IN medical
nractice Or Cbilds is President and was the
founder of the Berkshire Medical College, of
which Mr. Hubbard has long been Trustee,
and in which he was for years Professor of
Medical Jurisprudence. DR.. Humphrey was
for twenty years President of Amherst College.
DR. Childs was, formerly Lieutenant Governor
and ex-ofiicio a member of the Executive
Council, OF which Mr.. Hubbard was, at another
time, member Mr. Hubbard was also the
Massachusetts Commissioner to defend the
rights of Massachusetts colored seamen at
New Orleans, at the same time Mr.. Hoar, IAN
other of the Hs) was sent on a similar mission
to Charleston-and, by and by, had the same
warm welcome which was extended to Mr..
Hoar.
All three gentlemen retain their mental vlg-
or and activity. Dir. Childs is in full practice
of his profession, and attends regularly TO ms
professorship. His health being perfectly
good and belonging TO long-lived fanny, ms
promise is strong for many years usefulness
DR. uumpbrey writes for several newspapers,
and as those Who read our "Short Sermons,
can testify, with a clearness and strength of
stvle which younger men might envy. He is
also President of the American Education So
ciety. and takes lively interest in every good
work. from the planting OF tree on the high
way to the grandest movement in the moral,
RELIGIOUS or political world. Mr. Hubbard is
this winter reading very interesting reminis.
cences of the Berkshire Bar, to the present
members of the bar and to other associations,
and whenever occasion offers, shows the pow
er of liberal and philosophical mind. All
three gentlemen present claims to esteem
which need not be spoken Of in paragraph
simply designed to call attention to some curl
ous condolences in their names and history.
May it be long before the trio is broken.
