CONDITION OF TuE NATIONAL RANKS.

CONDITION OF THE NATIONAL BANKS.
The Comptroller of the Currency has
received about 900 quarterly reports,
showing the condition Of the national
hanks throughout the country on the morn
ing of the l7tn instant. As far as the
same have been examined they are found
10 show the banks generally in good con-
dition. They appear 10 have demands for
all their available funds, and the loans and
discounts are unusually large in the aggre-
gate. vet the lawful money reserve re-
ouircd by the national currency act is
well maintained. In regard to the reserve
Of lawful money required by the banks,
the Acting Comptroller Is requiring that
the banks keep the two-fifths Of fifteen or
one-hsf Of twenty five per centum OF cir
culation in legal-tender notes and specie
entirely. The banks have heretofore been
allowed to keep compound-interest notes,
10 certain extent, for all purposes.-Nd-

THE NEW RADICAL PAPER.
The projectors of the new Radical paper
70 he published in Washington announce
that they will commence regular issues
about the Ist OF February. Ii is to be
printed in the evening only, and called the
Erening Leader.
Mr.. DAVIS.
The Washington correspondent Of the
New York cypress states il is understood
that the Judiciary Committee on Thursday
last re0pened the case Of Mr.. Davis, and
agreed 10 summon Surratt to testify there
in when he arrives.
The PROTEST AGAINST THE COLORADO BILL.
II will be another proof of Radical ras-
Cality if Colorado be forced into the Union
against her will, while the southern States
are forcibly kept ont. Here is the pro-
test:
"DENvER, COLORADO, January 10, 1867.
al am instructed by the House of Re-
representatives. Of this Territory to send you
the following resolution, passed by that
body:
Whereas il is announced in the public
prints that it is the intention of Congress
to admit Colorado as State into the Union
There fore
=" Res0lued By the House of Representa-
tires of this Territory, That, representing
as We do the last and only legal express
sion of public opinion on this question,

law admitting the State without first
having the question submitted to vote
Of the people, for the reasons 4: First. That
We have a right TO a voice in the selec-
ton of the character of our government
Second. That We have not sufficient
population to support the expense of a
State government.
"For these reasons we trust that Con-
gress will not force a government on us
against our will. Respectfully,
ALEXANDER CUNNINGHAM"
THE PENNSYLVANIA SENAToRsHIP.
The Radicals are very Respondent over
the fact that Thad. Stevens only received
seven votes in caucus for senator. The
selection of Cameron is regarded as a GER
tain indication that Forney will be turned
ont OF his secretaryship of the Senate
World.
FEMALE SUFFRAGE.
A practical test of the honesty of the
senatorial advocates of female suffrage will
soon be made from an unexpected quarter.
II will he remembered that Mr.. Sumner
and others tacitly agreed to the PROPOSE
ton that women should be allowed Ia vote
aud hold office whenever they ask for it..
