NEW HAMPSHIRE. Savings Bank in Trouble. CONCORD, Dec. 1-The trustees of the Concord Savings Bank suspended payment this morning, and a petition was presented to Judge Smith of the Superior Court and the Bank Commissioners, setting forth that the large and continued call of depositors for their funds, thereby forcing the sale of the bank's securities at a great depreciation, in the present depressed money market, tends to reduce its assets in such a manner as eventually to sub. ject the remaining depositors to actual loss, and praying the court to appraise, fix and determine the amount of such loss and the present market value of said assets, and reduce the deposit account of each of said depositors SO as to equitably divide the last amount to said depositors. The run upon the bank has been heavy, some $600,000 having been drawn in the past few months, reducing the deposits from $1,550,000 to $950,000, and with every prospect of a con. tinuance of this run, the trustees have taken this action, believing it to be for the best interests of the depositors. Meeting of the Republicau State Committee. CONCORD, Dec. 1.-A meeting of the Republican State Committee was held at Eagle Hotel in this city this eveaing, and the several conventions were appointed as follows: State convention at Concord, Tuesday, Jan. 2d, at Eagle Hall. Congressional conventions, district No. 1. at Dover, Jan. 21st; district No. 2, at Manchester, Jan. 13th; district No. 3, at Lebanon, Jan. 13th. The meeting was very fully attended, and was said to be the largest that has been held for several years. Among the prominent men who were present and spoke were Senator Wadleigh, Congressman Pike and Luther McClutchins, Republican candidate for Governor last year. It is thought the latter may be renominated for Governor, but the names of Hon. B. F. Preseott of Epping and Hon. Chas. H. Bell of Exeter, are prominently mentioned in connection with the candidacy. In the first Congressional district Wm. B. Small of Newmarket may be renominated, though the names of Hon. Chas. Doe of Rollinsford and J. J, Morrill of Guilford are spoken of. In the secend district Hon. Austin F. Pike of Frankin, the present Congressman, will undoubtedly receive the nomination, but in the event of his declining the choice will probably fall upon Maj. James F. Briggs of Manchester. Several candidates are brought forward in the third district, among whom are Col. Henry W. Blair of Plymouth, Chester Pike of Cornish, Levi W. Barton of Newport and Ossian Ray of Lancaster. The chances seem decidedly in favor of Blair of Plymouth. It is thought Col. Daniel Hall, chairman of the state committee, will preside at the meeting. The prohibition state conventiod to nominate a candidate for Governor will be held here tomorrow. The present indications are that the convention will be small and that Nathaniel White of thiscity will receive the nominatio n.
