NEW YORK, September 20. - The
Fourth National bank is meeting all de-
mands upon it, and they are now nu-
merOus. At one O'Clock notice was
given that general clearance could not
be effected today, owing to the fact
that many dealers find it impossible TO
get checks certified in a proper manner.
All statements, dockets and checks will
be returned to dealers on application at
the Gold Exchange bank. Gold was INA
at one O'Clock.
THE BANK OF NORTH AMERICA
has closed its doors. An effort is said
to be making to get public and private
bankers to act in concert and close doors
simultaneously, not waiting for three
o'clock. The Bank of North America
has not suspended.

lowed the announcement in the stock

the statement that the ship might have
aided the party on the ice, all are agreed
that it was impossible after the Polaris
broke adrift TO learn even the where
abouts Of those left behind. Every sf-
fort was made to find them, but to no
avail. Captain Markham, Of the royal

STOCKS AND BONDS.
There was better tone to the stock
market at the opening, arising out OF
| the announcement that the treasury
would buy ten million dollars worth Of
| bonds. At noon to-day there was an
improvement of from two TO six per
cent. in values, and great hopes were
I entertained that the end had been
reached; but these hopes were soon de-
/ strOyed when it was announced that the
Union Trust company had decided to
stop until Monday. That institution
has had very large offers Of assistance,
and its officers believe that they can re-
sume business on Monday. The suspen-
sion Of the Trust company was followed
by the bank Of Commonwealth, which
closed its door at an early hour. The
excitement and panic which followed
the suspension of these institutions were
beyond description. The stock exchange
resembled a madhOuse, and the streets
were blocked with peOple-all iabOring
under great excitement and fren-
zy. Prices tumbled from two
to sixteen per cent, and stocks
we're slaughtered without any
apparent regard to values amid
the surging of the excited crowd
in the stock exchange, and the
continued destination of values,
there were some few cool and level
heads. These men conceived the idea
Of initiating the Vienna plan Of closing
exchange, and Immediately the govern
ing committee was convened to take
action thereon. In few moments the
board was called to order, and from the
the rostrum it was announced that the
exchange would be closed until further
orders from the president. This was re-
eeived with great joy, and the exchange
resounded with cheers. The gong was
sounded, and in less time than it takes
to record the fact, the wild excitement
was over, and the surging crowd of fran
tic brokers disappeared, and the stock
exchange was nothing but deserted
hall. All this happened in so short a
time that 1t seems almost impossible,
and only those on the spot can realize
the remarkable change. All dealings
on the street was prohibited under PEN
atty of suspension, and therefore Ne
business was transacted. The following

only called for three hundred thousand,

From the Black Hawk Journal of June 18th,
we obtain the following particulars regarding
the proposed tunnel through the Rocky Noun
tains
The tunnel will be about twelve miles long.
It's greatest depth will be 200 feet, at James
Peak. Ii will make Middle Park readily aceessi-
Dle from the eastern portion OF the Territory !;
will show what is the mineral and geological
character Of this section, and will tolerably ex-
tensively advertise the country the scene OF
an enterprise twice as large and hundred times
a. import ant as the Mount Cenis tdnnel. Col.
Heaton will use the diamond-pointed drills. and
titus not be obliged to keep in operation mum
erous blacksmith shops. They will be driven by
machinery, and it is expected that the tunnel
will progress at the rate OF five feet per hour, or
sixtv feet per day. Early next year work will
commence from Middle Park.
Already considerable work has been DONE
The mountain has been graded down for the
faco of the tunnel flume 800 feet long has
been built FROM the creek by which fall OF
twenty-five feet il obtained for the purpose Of
turning an oyershot wheel, by OF which the
tunnel Is to be supplied with air strong levee
has been built to prevent the waters OF the
creek from oyerhDwlng aud embarrassing opera
tions in the tuunel. large boarding house, six
ty by twenty five feet and two stories high, has
been built substantial bridge has been built
over the creek on the road leading to the Lake
Gulch country,
The objects Of the tunnel are to afford a
means OF working the discovered mines rapidly
and cheaply. to discover and open new veins and
TO afford track for railway. 1t will strike the
BJbtal first OF known mines, and four hundred
feet below the present tunnel. The effects of
the success OF this enterprise hardly be estl-
mated. II may cause TO pass through our sec
ton and under our mountains all or nearly all

PHIIADsLPHIA,s MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS.

The vote ct the Republican nomination cleo
tion, Tuesday, is set down at about so 900, but
1t is believed TO be enormously over-oounted
There was q conspicuous absence OF any very
deep, interest in the result, except among the
professional politicians, and the OF this s
not hard to assign. 1t consists in the fact that
there is general readiness among a great num-
ber OF Republican voters to act with entire inde
pendence, this year. in voting upon their local
ticket. They feel that this time there Is nothing
ct tstAke more important than their own munich
pal government, aud that the time has now come
when they may pick and choose among the can
ddAtes set up, IN such manner As will produce
the best attainable results.
The probability therefore, is that, at the Octo-
Der election. this year, there will be more OF a
mixed vote than has been seen for some time,
and that some slAtes will be broken. This may
not appear. Immediately fer the Managing Ring
will doubtless count in all their own candidates,
without regard to the actual vote they get, but
II there is : resoluts effort made these frauds
may be uprooted, even under the present cleo
ton laws. The experience Of the Eefomers
Association, who have determinedly prosecuted,
In the Courts. several scandalous abuses In the
various city departments proves that much good
may be done in this way. The Courts are not
oil SO good as they might be; one or two, at
least, OF the Judges are fairly open to the sus
picion Of catering to the Rings desires bu'
none OF them dare openly defy the force OF pub
lie opinion, in plain CASE Without an lmpor
tant exception, the judicial forces may be count
ed on for the maintenance Of the public rights.
whenever determined and earnest effort is
made to bring the municipal wrongs and frauds
to trial This was the experience in New York,
aud we are perfectly confident, from an observa-
tion of Philadelpha's case, that it will be so in
that city, There is a code Of laws which public
opinion has framed for application to Courts aud
Judges, which holds them to severe and strlct
account for every lapse Of duty, and this at least
gives the people some protection from the pill
