BANK SUSPENSION. Tho banking

Democrat, closed its doors on Thursday afternoon,
Aug. ], being unable to continue further payment.
The liabilities ofthe bank aggregate abou, SIS 900,

amount six times as large, deposltors will not
suffer by the suspension, further than the incon-
venience to which they viii be put by the delay
