In .Senate yesterday, tho Joint Committee on Banks made the following lleports, which were adopted: “The situation of the Planters* Hank js fully shewn from its statement. “The soundness of the currency of the State depends upon the prudent and judicious manageme nt oflhu hank ing institutions by thr.su to whom they aro entrusted, and the value nttiiched by tho public to tho paper bills issued from them, w a criterion which fully tests that soundness.
