Opinions Differ.

The affairs at the Merchants
bank are apparently at & stand
still. The report Of the special
examiner is now in the hands Of
Comptroller Eckles and the off
Gals are anxious!y awaiting his &C.
cision in the matter.
Opinions differ very widely as
to the early adjustment OF the dit
fculties and opening Ct the bank.
Some are led to believe that with
the intervention of corresponding
banks in New York, interested
friends and large creditors in
Jacksonville ard our senior sena-
tor at Washington, the afairs will
be put in shape fer an carly re
sumption Of business. Others
who cl4im to be well posted Oh the
true status of affairs declare that
nothing short Of miracle Will
cause it to oper; that he affairs
are even in a worse shape than
they have ben represented and
that alltha dePos;tors can look for
will come through the hands of a
receiver.
