Porter, with* that promptness for which'he is remarkable* immediately upon the suspension of specie payments by the Banks, ad dressed a letter to .the Attorney General, requiring him to take instant measures to enforce the laws and protect the community from another inunda tion of the abominable shinplaslcr currency. The Attorney General thereupon addressed a circular to each of his deputies throughout tho Commonwealth, enjoining it as a duty devolving upon them to en force tho law in every case where an attempt is made to violate its wholesome provisions. - This prompt and efficient interference on the part ofthe Executive, at onco’scttlcs tho question. We shall have no shinplasters—thanks to our democratic Governor. Vi Repbrta arc Hie that tho United States Bank, '/tfhich .was the very first.to suspend, will not be a ,blo to resume the payment of specie. It is confi dently.,predicted that that mammoth institution will shortly burst the boiler, and with its fato. in volve the destruction of all tlie fond hopeq of the federal, whig party. Tilings look squally in that direction—Jirst, Mr. ..Biddle’s. retiVacy—secondly, tho issuing of post notes payable one year after date—thirdly, its drafts on New York and in Eu rope dishonored—and, fourthly, a suspension.— All these things considered; as having followed each dthor-in-rapid succession, andtbepublionccd not bo surprised if the next movement is a pulsory winding up of its multifarious monetary transactions—in other words, the next intelligence may be that this great “regulator of the currency” has gone by the board. The -Banks of-Philadelphia- suspended-specie payments the next morning after tho election.— Why did’nt they set public- opinion at defiance the day before, and not wait until after tho people had! spoken at the ballot boxes? The reason is obvi ous. Had, they suspended the day before tho e-1 lection, the democrats would have carried the city as well, as the county, and Would have driven back the array of bank directors and their dependants with confusion and dismay into the gloomy, reces ses of iheif own polluted caverns. ' . Pennsylvania Elections*— Truly has the Key stone State responded to the call of her sister states to keep the ball in motion.. Such a flood of victo ries has never before poured in upon us, as the dif ferent counties, one after the other, tell their ing tale. .In many counties where the federalists have heretofore carried by largo majorities, the or der of things is completely reversed, and democra tic .Victories ate made j»r^®4ho ? place—whilst in the strongest holds of tlid enemy, their majorities are now merely nominal.

Eby, Esq., Robert Snod grass, Esq., Peter Gufshall, George Math ews and John Irwin, Esq. were selected to draft a preamble and resolutions expressive of the sense of the- meeting, during whose absence Hugh Gaullagher, Esq. addressed the assemblage. The committee then re> ported the following which were unanimous ly adopted: , Whereas, A crisis has arisen in the mon etary affairs of our country, that calls for an immediate and decided expression of public Opinion, as to the manner in which the evils that threaten us from a corrupt system;of banking afe fi) be averted. Therefore-, Resolved, That we view with alarm and indignation; a second suspension of specie' payments by,the Banks of the state of Penn sylvania, at a period when oUrFarincrs and Laboring men,were by honest thrift and in-’ dusliy enjoying in a supetrabunilaircc-of the products of the soil, mor-eithan ample means to meet all their pecuniary engagements. - Resolved, That we deem the policy of suspensions of specie payments by the banks at all times , ruinous in .their tendency, Snd calculated to aggravate a thousand fold the evils tjjey pretend to remedy—and, we. be lieve, at the present moment, their true pol icy \ypuld have-been- to"haye-paid: out" the whole amount of specie in'their vaults,' and thus by evincing a .disposition to meet the demands if their creditors, to merit the con fidence and sympathy of the public.; Resolved, That we deprecate a return to' a miserable shin plaster currency, such as polluted oiir. land after the suspension of 1837, and that as advocates of the SUPRE MACY OF THE LAWS; we cordially ap prove of the recent instructions of the Gov ernor of this Commonwealth to his Attorney General and Deputies throughout the Stale, for the.purpose of preserving inviolate the statue book, which places heavy penalties on the makers, i issuers, or receivers of small bills.. . , . i Resolved-,' Thaf.'tve pledge ourselves to oppose the emission of . notes in any. shape or form, and calf upon all good citi zens to unite with us in bur; “effort to keep in circulation the Gold'and bffiyEh that is now undoubtedly in the country,':jtb, an: a rnount sufficient for all the purposea^bf••’ex change, and which must circulate if:' notes’:- below the amount of f ive Dollars .are np^: emittedf •' ' .j-; r Resolved, That we believe our present, banking.

IlAßUisuuua.Oct. 10, 1839.-5 To the several Deputy Attorneys General of the respective counties of the Common wealth'of Pennsylvania; ■ I received the subjoined letter from Ids Excellency the Governor of the Common wealth, this morning, and hasten to comply with the directions therein contained; For lie purpose of facilitating, refercnce-lo the acts,of Assembly, furnishing our guide on the subject under consideration, I nave ap pended copies of these acts to this circular, and.jnvitc jour attention to their several provisions. Tor detailed instructions'’ on the nlode.of proceeding to be adopted, in carry ing out the-views of the Governor, - It will be leadily perceived, that these acts of.-Assembly, although they seem at a cursory glance, to contemplate in the first instance, a private and civil proceeding, in case tlieir provisions are violated, are yet highly penal in their character, and are ex pressly designed to operate penally upon of fenders. The evil which they were intend ed to correct, had been experienced with great severity, by the people of Pennsylva nia. No citizen, whatever his circumstan ces might be, could claim exemption from '■ ;» ifsTinconveniences and losses. Frauds in a .thousand forms had been its offspring—pub lic credit had been blighted, and both public and private morals deeply debased by its in-,, flueuce. That these things were the direct result of the indiscriminate issue, by private individuals and corporations, of notes, bills, checks, tickets, &c. &c. of sniall denomina- lions, in the form, and for the purpose of a circulating medium, is clearly shown in the history of the tjmes at'the passage of the first law on the subject, and by our own fresh re collection of .4110 events of the last three years. No species of speculation holds out such strong temptations to violate the law,- as that of manufacturing at'will, ami-paying out, bills, notes, tickets, or something that resembles anil-passes for money. The mas ter motive of human action is. appealed to, and the honor and honesty of too many, are found to yield, " It is generally those of des perate conditions, that avail themselves of the opportunity of palming off on the cotn : munity, large, nominal amounts 1 of", Small notes, during the suspension of specie pay ments by the Banks, because they have lit tle toirisque, in setting the laws at defiance, and can obtain a- circulation for their spuri ous'money, as a substitute for the specie that is withheld from circulation. In the end the imposition is discovered, or the resuinp-' tioh.ofspeqie, the. citizens, often those least.able to bear it, arc the sufferers. Similar inconveniences,though not in so great a degree, are experienced by the public, even when the small,notes are is sued by corporations and individuals per fectly solvent and willing to re,deem them. They become worthless a few miles froin the place where they are issued, or must be pass ed at a great Sacrifice—are soon multiplied to such a degree as to expel most of the bet ter money from circulation, and so debase and taint the currency tf the country, as to render its purification amfieform extreme ly difficult, if not impracticable. Considering the subjecf-in these aspects, I think there will be no difference of opinion as to the measures to be adopted.' It would be idle henceforth, as it has been hitherto, to leave the enforcement of these laws to ir regular, accidental, individual interposition. Few would be" willing to undertake the la bor; and perhaps fewer, (he responsibility of bringing the offenders to justice. The truth of the honiely adage will be again realized, that “what is.every body’s business, is no body’s.” The violators of the law will es cape, while the public is considering who shall prosecute, and the country will be a gain flofJded with spurious notes, in open defiance of the law. I can perceive but one efficient mode of accomplishing 'the laudable desires of the Governor oa this that is to as sume at once, the duty of .resisting any in fringenient of the acts of Assembly. You are therefore hereby instructed to institute ■promptly, if not done by any other person, the proper proceedings pointed out by the provisions of the several acts of ’Assembly, against alt individuals, or corporate bodies in your respective counties who violat' all . your respective iu»,, fe . pr aity of the provisions of., the acts of As sembly, prohibiting the issuing and circula ting of notes, &c. of a less denomination than.five dollars. . ! You are further hereby instructed, to be vigilant in ascerfainingMiiy such violations 'otj.lio said acts of Assembly, and' unflinch ing in lhe prosecution of-the same, wherever, and as often as suck violations are commit ted or repeated. You are further instructed, after deducting from the portion of the fines or penaltiesac cruing under said acts of Assembly to the person instituting proceedings, such reason able compensation as 1 may approve; to pay over the remainder of said fines or penalties, to the use of the poor, or to such persons as by said acts of Assembly, arc entitled to one moiety thereof. As the design of the proceedings herein directed, to be adopted by the several De puty Attorneys General, in the Common wealth of Pennsylvania,'is the total aqd.en tire Suppression of all ilj.egaf notes of a less denomination than five dollars, and the faith ful.execution of the laws, ! shall expect, on the part of every gentleman who holds this official relation to mo, a ready and thorough compliance \vith these instructions. Noth ing I am sure, is wanting in.this.crisis of our , hnonetaryalfairs, to extricate the public-from embarrassment.and difficulty, but ioolness, deliberation, firmness and a steady adher > „ence to the laws oh the part of the govern ? irnent and .of the citizens. Let -no step'be ‘ taken without due reflection. Let us not , ftirght that ample redress, is guarantied for J : all existing derangements of the currency by the laws—and that in the hands oftheiegis laturei iS placed the'only power of'alleviat ing thA difficulties under which the pfiblic lalmr3,-:So"far' as the operation of the laws may be supposed to,extend,.and of prevent,- ing the recurrence of similar evils in future.' • It is not my desire or intention,:, in.tlje in structions lierehy giveni to advise or counte nance Vexatious and harassing; proceedings , against the banksOr individuals in this em ergency, bat raere{y to ; ensure the execution of these wise' enacted, to protect the people, ftpm-fraud and decep tion. . .i- I-am respectfully yours, &c. - OVIDF. JOHNSON, - : v -Attorney General. Executive CifiAMufcn, Harrisburg. October, 10,1839.- 5 To Ovid F. Johnson Esq., Attorney Gen eral-of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania , Sir:— The suspension of specie payments by most if notall of the banks of this common wealth, seems likely to produce the same debasement and derangement of the curren cy of the country, that have attended, the same occurrences on former occasions. The several acts of assembly prohibiting the issuing and circulating of notes, tickets, and other papers in the similitude of bank, notes, under.thc denofn.inalion of five dollars, afford ample protection -to the community against the evils arising from this illegal and spurious currency,-if properly, enforced.— The only defect in these laws is, the omis sion to enjoin the duly of enforcing them, Upon some particular officers of this 'com monwealth. To this omission it isprobably'owing, that these salutary laws have been practically disregarded, and treated as a mere dead letter. ,As the Executive’of the common wealth, bound to, “take Care that the laws be faithfully executed, 1 ’ I feel it to be my duty in this emergency, to prevent as far as pos sible the violation of these laws. I owe it to the people of Pennsylvania, whose dearest interests are involved, not to shrink from tlie'pcrformance of this duty. It is my de sire therefore that you as (.he proper officer, should immediately adopt such measures as you may deem best suited to the Attainment of the object in view, to wit: the entire sup pression of all notes, bills checks, tickets-or other papers, of the similitude of bank notes, or promises to pay 1 money or other things under,the denomination of live dollars, from being issued or circulated wjUpn this com monwealth, so far as .the laws in relation to the subject furnish adequate powers for that purpose. . It is proper I should state that in direc ting this proceeding, ! "do not intend or be lieve that it will,operale.to shake the confi dence of The public in (he ultimate ability'of most, if notall of the banks of this common wealth to meet all their obligations and. to redeem their faith plighted to (he community; nor do I think it will-throw'any .obstacles in , the way of their doing so; on the contrary I firmly believe the exclusion of all small notes from circulation, will (end more di rectly than any other measure that can be now devised, to protect the public from frauds and imposition, and to enable (he banks.to fulfil theiivrcspcclive engagements., ■ The circumstances by which we are sur rounded Will doubtless lead to the cultiva tion of a spirit. (UWimUual forbearance and moderation on aljstdes, as the'course best adapted to restore a sound and healthy con dition ofaffairs. Every attempt toagrayateex isting embarrassments unnecessarily, should be discountenanced by all cool and reflecting citizens. ‘ . There is beyond question, abundance of specie in the country to fill all the channels of domestic circulation, without distressing its private ladders or the banks; and as the suspension of specie payments by these in stitutions, cuts off'a great portion of the for eign drain upon it, it must readily find its wayjnto the. hands of the people. . N Respectfully / Yours, &c., DAVII) R, POUTER.

This morning about 9 o’clock the steamer Liverpool arrived, bringing us London dates of the 20th September, and Liverpool'papers of the 21st,the day of sailing, both inclusive, The commercial news is of the highest in terest. In the cotton trade the prevalent, feeling that cotton would fall to the price which it bore two years ago, which feeling connected with the dishonoring of the drafts olTlie United States Bank, and the very un-. certain state of the. harvest had given a gloomy aspect to commercial affairs gener ally. ' , ' " , ; '. ' - . The greatest excitement was caused in London during the week preceding the sai-' ling of the Liverpool, By announcement, made in the London prints, of the refusal to accept bills to a large amountdrawn by the Bank of the United States by Messrs. Hpttiriger & Co. of Paris and Havre. This house, which had hitherto acted lis the agents of the Bank of the United States, had refu sed to accept any more drafts from that cs tablishment, and. had allowed bills to the amount of two millions and a half of francs to be protested. These bills were sold by the bank in this city previous to the last sai ling'of the Liverpool, and were subsequent ly negotiated in London by various bankers and merchants, into whose.hands they had come in the regular course of The following comments from the most prominent ofthe London journals; show in what light this transaction is veiwed by dif ferent parties in ■ England. ‘ The London Globe says:— . " . “At first it was imagined that the procee ding would destroy the credit of the Bank, of the United States, and lead to other, un pleasant consequences; but.upon inquiry it. :was ascertained .that many of the bills had been accepted by third parties: for honor of the endorsers, and that'the remainder would prObably.be taken up by Messrs, llothschild & Co., for-honor of the’United States Batik. This arrangement would leave the affair in a satisfactory state, merely changing the agency, from one house to ;another. ’We shall hear furthdron this subject next Wed nesday,"There were some bitlsj on. Hatnburg aud'Ainsterdani sold at the sameitiine, drawn, •by the United States Bank, which fherb is reason to believe ,will be dishonored.!’ . The London says,; “Wo have brought together all the information' which ■lms 'transpired concerning of-a> banking house .at Paris and Havre, to-, hnii swer the drafts of thpLiutetl.

A serious blow to its credit will pro duce very important effects ~in trie Unified States, where it .is the principal liable aii'd the tunin' stay of a considerable number of subordmatc’ banks.

The, grain in ninny districts has begub to sprit! and in some cases is nearly worthless.
