Baturday-waa the second successful day of resump
tion, and, unlike the day that preceded it, was almost
wholly unaccompanied by excitement or run upon tho
bunks. Tho crisis is, believed to-have passed with
these institutions, and facts show that they are strong
er now than they wore before resumption, so_ far as
their specie means are concerned; The expess of-coin
paid out over the amount received,, oi} Friday, 4s bo
lieved to be of inconsiderable tunaunt, if any; and-on
Saturday, the following examples ahn>v that they were

RESUMPTION.— Wo le.-yu from tho Pennsylva
nian of Tuesday, that the >Vjl,mngton Banka resumed
on the day previous, and that it was expected ail the
Banks in Delaware would jmmedutoly -‘follow suit.”
i he Salem (N. J.) Bank has also resumed,'
1 ho Easton Bank, and }he Farmers Bank of Read,
ing. have commenced paying specie-arid rumor says
that tho Columbia Bank, Middletown Bank, York and
Gettysburg Banka, pro also “shelling out” the hard
stuff.
Speaking of the stale of things in Philadelphia, tho
Pennsylvanian says;-“Resum, tion gets along swim
mmgly inlbjs region, instead of Hie Banks being
drawn of .their specie, as Jtho.crrtakr.rs and alarmists
Seemed to fear, specie flows in’ upon them. In many,
instances, their deposites in specie and specie funds are
much greater than tho amounts paid nut, and it ap
pears .that already a general confidence is restored.’’
