    THE HEW YORE STATE BANKS AND THE
.-ZIATIOBAL BAvEs.
A letter from Albany in the .*T.:Y..Tribunt,
datedAprillst, says:
Thee-established banks of this State have long
regarded with extreme j....alousy the - advantages
.enjoyed by the banking . institutions organized
under the law of Congress in respect of taxa
tion. The Assembly Committee on Banks, in
which the State Bank interest is largely repre
sented, suffered Ibis feeling to lead them this
morning to present to the Assembly it most
unwise and unpatriotic report upon the ques
tion of authorizing the Sta , e 'banks and indi
vidual bankers - to organize under the law of
Congress.
The report.takes the Most gloomy view pos
sible of the financial prospects of the country,
and abounds, With those- sombre auguries for
the fultire wich have.bitherto found utterance
only in the organs of secession which still" ex
ist among us. The reading of the report was
commenced and proceeded with for some time,
to the amazement, of the House. Members who
entered during the reading, asked their neigh.
hors if it was the last editorial from Me Argus
that the clerk was reading. - The dissatisfaction
finally,broke out openly: a motion was made
that the further reading of the report' be dis
pensed with, which was carried.
Gen. Crooke in a manly and spirited speech
then announced the doctrines of the report, and
moved that the Committee on Printing, to
whom it-went under the rule, be instructed to
report against the printing of the document. A
debate sprang up at once on this motion, the
Democrats fun of exultation that this - potent
weapon was placed in their hands by their ad
versaries, clamorously insisted upon the print
ing of the report, - and would doubtlesi have
been glad to vote to print 100,000 copies.
The motion of Gen. Crooke was not carried,
it being thought best to leave the matter dis
cretionary with the Committee, and.the report
went to the Committee, where it is safe - to as
sume that it will remain, for it is not likely that
two committees can be found in this houSe so
infatuated as to engage in the business of
furnishing campaign documents for the enemy.
THE FENIAN BROTIIEB.HOOD.-A convention
of the Fenian Brotherhood of the Northwestern
District was held at Fenian Hall, Chicago, on
Wednesday last: The proceedings were
strictly private. The Northwestern District
comprises all circles and sub-circles within the
States of Illinois,Missouri, lowa, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, and the Western
Territories.

The United States Christian Commission has
seixed'the present golden opportunity of rest for
the Army to extend its work for the good of the
Soldiers.
STATIONS have been multiplied, each with lie
chapel and store tents, tree writing tables, and
clothing, comforts and reading muter for gra.
tuitong diFtribliltloll.
VOLUNTARY DELEGATES, in numbers
greater than ever before, have been sent to preach
the Gospel at the stations and in regiments, bat
teries and camps without Chaplains, distribute
reading matter and stores, and labor for the good
of the Soldiers.
A PERMANENT FIELD AGENCY has been
sufficiently extended to establish , stations and
superintend the work.
THE BLESSING OF GOD rests signally on all
parts of the work. Many thousands have been
cheered, benefited and saved. Stlll a large part
of the Army remains unreached, and double the
number, both of stations and delegates, are needed
to meet the urgent demitnd for them.
The Christian CommiSsion offers to the people a
perfectly reliable and wonderfully economical
channel to reach the entire army in all its various
fields. The money given goes in full measure, in
benefits for body and soul, directly to the Soldiers;
and stores also, immediately from the hands of
delegates from home, who add words and deeds of
kit dness to the gifts when bestowed. -
Let the peor le give the Money and Stores, and
the work will be dons..
The large corps of Delegates now in the field
will serve as a grand corps of relief when the
armies shall move and battles be fought, and the
greater their number the more prompt and effec
tive will be the relief they shall render.
Let not the present work languish. Wait not
for the cry of the wounded and dying before pro
viding relief.
Send now and semi abundantly both money and
stores, and the soldiers' blessing shall be upon
yon.
