The receipts at the Philadelphia office of the Colum- ‘bia Railway, from November 80, 1348, to February 17, 1849, were $35,666 36, against $30,360 26 for the same period in the previou howing an inor f $6,306 10. This is a link in the main line of the public works of Pennsylvania, and this increase in business Jooks very encour: ‘The great caso pending in the Court of Appealsin Virginia, of the Benk of the United States wa. Steinberger’s Trustees, has at last beendecided. By this decision, the Western Bank of Baltimore reseives about $40,000; some preferred individuals, $60,000 ; and between $20,000 and $80,000 are divided between the Farmers’ Bank of Virginia, the Bank of Penn Town- ebip Philadelphia, and some of the other Baltimore ‘ban About $130,000 have been released by this decision. The President of the Baltimore and Susquehanns Railroad Company has recently remitted to the Trea- e@urer of the State of Maryland, $5,000 on account of dnterest on the debt due by the company to the State. This isa large payment at this m of the year, when the canals are closed, and is an indication of the growing prosperity of the company. This remittance amakes $20,000 which has been paid to the State for the fiscal year commencing on the lat of Ootober last. ‘The annexed statement, compiled from official re- turns, exhibits the movements of the leading depart- ments of each bank in New Jersey, on the Ist of Janu- ery, 1840:— pages or New Jeusey, Janvany, 1849, fanks.

The proportion of specie on hand to paper fa cireulation, according to the latest report, was as one tofour. The aggregate capital of the above banks amounts to $3,500.700, The excess of discounts, over and above the total capital, was $1,093,299, being more | than fifty per cent as mach sgaia asthecapitel. Since 1844, there has been a very great change in the position of the banks of this State—a change by no means fa- vorable. The Committee on Banking, in the lower house of the Legislature of New Jersey, have reported that the adoption of neral bank system, similar to that in operation in this State, is inexpedient, as it tends to s rapid increase of banks and banking capital. The report urges upon the House the necessity of guarding very strictly the bankiog system, and pre- venting the increate of cupita’ employed in banking, except for good and sufficient reasons, It is about time the Legislature of New Jersey adopted some measures to prevent the establishment of such banks as the Plainfield, the New Hope and Delaware Bridge, and other similar institutions, and, if possible, give her banks generally @ better character than they have for some time past enjoyed. We do not wish to be understood that there are not any good banksin New Jersey—institutions judiciously and properly con- ducted—for we have no doubt there are as good banks in that Stave as in any other; but the existence of such concerns as the New Hope and the Plainfield banks, for such @ length of time; the impunity with which they carried on their swindling operations, and the difficulty experinced in getting the Legislature to in- terfere and arrest the movements of the parties en- gaged in swindling the public, have given the banking system of that State a reputation rather detrimen- tal to its credit beyond its own limits The liquidetion of the affairs of the Bank of the State of Alabama and branches, progresses with as much rapidity as cireumstances will permit.

Debts due most of the banking in- stitutions in different parts of the country, whicharein & state of liquidation, have been paid up much better than generally anticipated, and tho improvement going on in the financial and commercial affairs of tho ‘Weatern and Southern States will give the trustees of these institutions more facilities for winding up their affairs, The circulation of the Bank of the State of Alabama and branches, forms part of the State debt, and the collections made from the assets of those institutions, are spplied to the redemption of this por, tion of State indebtedness.
