deem its notes in COIN" Now that is ex-
scty the Western idea of a specie-payiOg
bank They think out there that o bank which
pays lie own notes, and nothing else, in gold
and silver. is specie-paying bank. The
reason for this belief is very obyious-our
Western friends necer had a specie-paying bank,
and therefore, do not know what such an in.
.aIutlon is. 1t is not redeeming their circu-
latiug notes in coin that ever troubles our
banks. They generally have from three to
five times more of coin on hand than OF bank
notes out. Even now our banks viii pay
specie for their notes, and so they generally
did during the suspension of 1851. 1t Is only
when the deposits are called for IN coin that
tie banks are obliged TO suspend. Western
bouk never dreams Of such an utopnn absurd
ity as paying checks and discounts aud collec-
tons in gold. They never knew what such
crazy fnabciering meant, and probably VIII not
for some wears to come. But their notes they
have generally pretended TO pay in specie. and
some d them have really done il. However,
the Western banks which pay specie on their
notes have very few out. They generally pay
over their counters tue notes OF distant banks.
and II requested will shave them at the usual
a5ominabe rate 10 which the Western people
have unhappily become accustomed. The State
Bank of Indiana is one Of the strongest and
most respectable Of the Western banks. But
il never paid all deposits, discounts, and col
lections in specie on demand as our banks do
when not state of suspension. Nor ia 1t
probable that the State Bank Of Indiana and
is branches pay out notes redeemabe at the
place where paid out; but notes Of distant
branches are PAID out, so that the State mus.
be tlayersed 10 get the gold. When the West
ern people really do get a specie-payiug bank
such as we usually have in the Eastern cites,
we shall be glad to hear OF It.
