bills, &e., is to be conducted by the Bank of Commerce for the joint account of the banks interested. Private dispatches from New-Orleans to-day quote sight bills on New-York and Sterling both at par. This stops the drain of specie to that quarter. Henry Willetts, esq., Treasurer of Westchester County, was to-day appointed Receiver of the Bank of Sing Sing. He is a depositor to the amount of about $10,000. Money on call is perhaps a little easier, but in the negotiation of paper there is no relief. Leading names go at 12@18 P cent, and there is little or no currency at these figures. Buyers appear to have entirely abandoned the market, and have in many cases invested their means in stocks. The Corn Exchange is nearly at a stand still in consequence of the impossibility of selling exchange. Forced sales of flour and wheat have been made at a large decline. Cotton is also de. clining and dull. In uncurrent money still higher rates rule. Illinois, Wisconsin, and Iowa, 12 P cent; Indiana 3 P cent; South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, 10 P cent; Virginia, &c. 5 p cent. The heavy decline in State stocks has has destroyed, temporarily at least, a large portion of the security in the Bank Department of the Western States, held for the circulation of the banks, and this has been 80 great and 80 sudden that it is now useless to call for additional security. We understand the State officers have dec ded not to attempt such a call, and also not to receive at present any of the stocks of the Southern States on deposit for currency. The traffic of the second week of November on the Burlington and Quincy Road shows a gain of $5,800. The Michigan Central road earned the second week $49,461 12 of November, 1860 42,358 32 In November, 1859 $7,102 Increase The Michigan Southern in the same week earned an increase of $14,000. The earnings of the Jeffersonville and Indianapolis road for October were about $36,000, being an increase of $10,000 over the earnings of the corresponding month last year. The bank statement to-day is quite as favorable in the specie reserve as could have been expected after the heavy Southern drain of week before last. The loan line, however, shows a very sharp contraction, most of which took place in the early part of the week, under fright. During Friday and Saturday we think there was a more liberal action on the part of bank officers. The deposits show the natural effect of the reduction of loans and drain of gold. The following is a comparative statement of the condition of the banks of New-York City Nov. 10 and Nov. 17:

From New York. NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-The Time's Washington correspondent says information is received here that Ex-Gov. Aiken opposes secession. M. Otero, delegate from New Mexico, has written home advising his constituents to connect their destiny with the Pacific States, should the Union be dissolved. The Californians in Washington declare their purpose of advocating an independent Republic on the Pacific side. Secretary Cobb writes to Assistant Secretary Cisco that bidders for the recent Government loans who shall pay up one half their offers by the 22d inst. will be allowed thirty days from that date to pay the amount. Mr. Floyd, Secretary of War, has expressed his determination to hand over the forts and arsenals in South Carolina intact to his successor on the 4th of March. Any attempt, therefore, to seize them by the Secessionists. as suggested by Mr. Rhett, would inevitably lead to serious consequences. The firms of N. H. Wolfe & Co., and Wright & Loze, both engaged in the Western produce commission business, have failed. The rumors current respecting the failure of another prominent firm in the same business, are unfounded. The bank at Sing Sing, after a hard run of several days, closed its doors on Saturday.

there was cor.plete unanimity of opinion icy and ne cessity of the action adopted. It appeared to be gene rally conceded that the existence of the banks could not be assured for many days unless The mercantile would receive the needed relief by an immediate and extended expansion of loans. The screws had been turned nearly to the last point of endurance, and we were witnessing the anomaly of a severe stringency and money panie at a period when on all sides were the elements of prosperity such as this country has seldom seen. The official report of the meeting is as follows: At a meeting of the officers of the banks of the City of New-York, at the Merchants' Bank, on Wednesday, the 21st of November, 1860, the following proceedings were unanimously adopted, viz.: In order to enable the banks of the City of NewYork to expand their loans and discounts, and also for the purpose of facilitating the settlement of the exchanges between the banks, it is proposed that any bank in the Clearing-House Association may, at its option, deposit with a committee of five persons-to be appointed for that purpose-an amount of its bills receivable; United States stocks, Treasury notes or stocks of the State of New-York, to be approved by said committee, who shall be authorized to issue thereupon to said depositing bank certificates of deposit, bearing interest at seven per cent per annum, in denominations of five and ten thousand dollars each, as may be desired to an amount equal to seventy-five per cent of such depost. These certificates may be used in settlement of balances at the Clearing-House, for a period of thirty days from the date hereof, and they shall be received by creditor banks, during that period, daily, in the same proportion as they bear to the aggregate amount of the debtor balances paid at the Clearing-House. The interest which may accrue upon these certificates shall, at the expiration of the thirty days, be apportioned among the banks which shall have held them during the time. The securities deposited with said Committee as above named, shall be held by them in trust as a special deposit, pledged for the redemption of the certificates issued thereupon. The Committee shall be authorized to exchange any portion of said securities for equal amount of others, to be approved by them at the request of the depositing bank, and shall have power to demand additional security either by an exchange or an increased amount, at their discretion. The amount of certificates which this Committee may issue as above shall not exceed $5,000,000. This agreement shall be binding upon the ClearingHouse Association when assented to by three-fourths of its members. Resolved, That in order to accomplish the purpose set forth in this agreement, the specie belonging to the associated banks shall be considered and treated as a common fund for mutual aid and protection, and the Committee shall have power to equalize the same by assessment or otherwise. For this purpose statements shall be made to the Committee of the condition of each bank on the morning of every day before commencement of business, which shall be sent with the exchanges to the manager of the Clearing-House, specifying the following items, viz: 1. Loans and discounts. 2. Deposits. 3. Loan certificates. 4. Specie, Resolved, That after the 1st of February next, every bank in the Clearing-house Association shall have on hand at all times, in specie, an amount equal to one-fourth of its net liabilities, and any bank whose specie shall fall below that proportion shall not make loans or discounts until their position is reestablished and we, as members of the Clearing-house Association, agree that we will not continue to exchange with any bank which [shall show by its tw successive weekly statements that it has violated this agreement. The Chairman appointed the following named gentlemen as the committee: Moses Taylor, of the City Bank. James Punnett, of the Bank of America. R. W. Howes, of the Park Bank. A. S. Fraser, of the Seventh Ward Bank. Charles P. Leverich, of the Bank of New-York. JOHN A. STEVENS, Chairman. Adjourned. W.F. HOOKER, Secretary. The Receiver of the Bank of Sing Sing gives public notice that he will commence redeeming the bills of that bank on the 29th inst. Bill holders are amply secured. Gold is coming freely from Boston, and some has been ordered from Philadelphia. The night mail train between this city and Boston, we hear, will commence running next Monday. We are indebted to Messrs. William P. Wright & Co.'s Cotton Circular for the followingstatistics: CROP.-Nothing definite can yet be said on the subject of the extent of the crop. We are not as yet advised of the occurrence of a general killing frost in the cotton region. In former years this circumstance would have caused a very general increase in the estimate; this season appears to be an exception, and the correspondence to hand yesterday, from several points in the South, insist that 4,000,000 bales must be considered a maximum figure. W ithout adopting this estimate ourselves, we are willing to admit there is more uniformity of opinion on the subject at this time than we have before noticed, and that more confidence is due to the opinion, since the results of many individual crops are now ascertained to fall below the yield of last year. Should the present state of political feeling continue to exist in the Southern States, it will become a matter of great consequence to ascertain the effect upon the supply of cotton this year and for some years to come. Receipts for the week are large, some arrearages being included. The decrease at the ports is now 137,000 bales. We may very soon expect a decided falling off in the recepts, Plantprice
