LOCAL BANK N0TE4.

In comparison with Government cur
rency, which is universally and thankfully
received by all creditors, which is unques-
tionably good in Kansas and in New York,
and which in itself has the power Of regu-
lating exchange between the East and the
West, how poor, mean, unsafe, inconveni-
ent and tormenting appear the notes Of the
shin-plaster shops called "1ocal banks" i"
Torn, greasy, issued by nobody knows
whom, payable-ifpayable at all-in other
scraps Of printed paper like those in
demand, not one in five Of
which is as good as the note,
foran equal amount, Of any solvent bust
ness man; yet all are clothed by custom
md prescription with the attributes Of
money! One fortunate result Of the war
will be to wipe them out OF existence. and
next to getting rid Of Copperheadism in
politics, and slavery in the Republic, the
deliverancc Of the country from the domi-
nation of State banks will be the greatest
good effected by what We have endured
and are still to suffer from the rebellion.

The writer states that the troops were
forced on board Of the transports at the point
of the bayonet; that several regiments refn-
do so, declared that they might bo sent to
Vlcksburg, but could not be made to fight.
lie also states that the I'D Illinois infantry,

guns, and on new ones being furnished them,
thrcw them into the riTer, scattered in the

transport BY gunboat shelling the woods.

Quinby's division embarked IN q quiet, or
