Tae American says:— ts capital was small; its resources limited; deposits light, and its credit rather below tian above par. | Tae loss will fall prinei- poy. on the stockholders, although the few jepositors may fail to receivethe fall amount credited in their bank books. Tne only thing about the failure that excites any comment is the singular condact of certain gen'lemen from New York, who bought up the stock of tue bank but never paid for it, and took pos- session of the bank only to abandon It. Ac cording to the statement of Mr. Savin, the casbier, about the only official act performed by the new president was the drawiag of a cheek for $f on a bank that had no existence. Part of the assets of the Union Banking Com- omy is a claim for $65 against its presid he money that the obliging cashier ba to him over the counter was genuine, bu’ check that he gave tarned out to bs bogus.

Mortou’s return to the Senate was discusses that Mr. Morton expressed a hop? of being able to attend the regular session, but had given up expeciation of atteudiog the extra Session; that he (Mr. McDouaid) urged. Mr Morton to take care of himself, and said if be found the daily sessions of the Senate too fatiguing he sbould rest himself by pairing off with him.
