National Hanks Having had many inquiries made a s to the consequence of a failure of an v one of the National Banks, ant: eiaed by the government, and their some uneasiness felt at the report of the failure of four of them in the north, we cony the following from the “Con.a*eroial” of the New Orleans Crescent, which explains the whole question: “The failure of four National Banks at the north redeem tfeir ein ulation in the u'ited States treasury notes, lias created a petty pan e an ong sums holders of this currency . Yesterday, we are informed, at one, at least, of the city markets, it was refused by thr butchers. 1 ’.der these cireumstar ces. and in order to prevent ill-informed * holders from selling at a di-count, (lie First National Bank prom; t-'y gave no tiee, throe _h the press, that it was rea dy to redeem ALU National Hank is sues, at its counter, at par, in Edited States treasury note% In the mcan* t me, some money dealers were ex changing city treasury notes for them a’ par, anti all the banks ami dealer* were receiving them on dci-nsit, and in some cases, exchanging legal tender notes tor them to accommodate t.mil holders. “It is evident that the public do not appreciate the fulness in the pros visions of the National Hanking Law to save the holders of the bank cireu- j Jation from loss. In the first instance, ! the bank is compelled to deposit with the comptroller of the currency Lr ifed j States Bonds to the amount of at least j one-third of its capital. The c< mp* , troller then issue? to the banks, in I circulating notes, ninety per cent of, the market value of the securities de posited—but in no case more than par reserving'the ten per cent as a margin for the protection, not of the. holders of the notes, but of the Government, hieh, in any event, is bound to pay the full face of the not-- in lawful money of the United Stab that is, if the securities deposited were sud denly to become valueless, the Gov ernment would ba the loser, not the note holder. “The proceedings in the case of a bank failure are prompt and simple. The hold cr of the bank’s bills presents them at the counter for redemptiom in lawful meney. It is refused. The holder then protests them formally, and the notary sends the protests to Oontroll of the Currency. The Con troller makes further investigation in to the facts, and on being satisfied of the Lilurc, is bound, within thirty days thereafter, to declare the depos ited securities forfeited to the Govern ment. Thereupon the secretary of the treasury .is required Mo direct the j holders of the notes of the broken j bank to present them at the United ■ States Treasury, at Washington, for payment, w! en they will bo paid in lawful money of the Unite 1 States. There are other provisions in the law to guard the government against es sential loss, but, standing in the posi tion of endorser of the notes., the gov ernment is bound to pay them in law ful money, whatever may be ttic result j to itself.’’ - - . . TIK PRKNtm-lVr, UEX, UK l\T AtViJ Tils: SOI ril In a recent message to Confess the President expressed the following views: “From all tjie information in my possession andfrom that which I have recently derived from the most relia ble authority, I am induced to cherish the belief that scetional animosity i surely and rapidly merging itself into a spirit of nationality, and that repre. sentation, connected with a properly adjusted system of taxation, will result in the harmonious restoration of the States to the National Union.” The President also furnishes a com munication from General Grant, in which that officer says: “I had free conversation with the people of the South during my recent tour, and I am satisfied that the peo pie have accepted the present situation of offairs in good faith.” General Grant also says. “There is an unusual acquiescence in the au thority of the General Government The President's Message to Congress was received to-day.
