Within the last few weeks a flood of bills have been issued, some of them 80 obscurely drawn, that it is hard to tell what they are, or where, if at all, they are redeemable.

The Washington correspondent of The Philadelphia Ledger states that the failure of the Union Bank at Washington caused a general call for specie upon the individual banks of that city. He says:Selden's, Wither's and Latham's banks enjoyed such a degree of confidence in the public mind that the eagerness for redemption soon abated. The Patriotic Savinge' Bank, of which JOHN F. CALLAN, Esq., is the President. the junior of the former, but also abundantly established, stood the pressure cheerfully, promptly and without flinching, until every body became satisfied of its ability to meet all demands, and soon every thing was quiet there. The Bank of the Republic, (BAILEY, treasurer,) had a tremendous run, but up to the closing of this has redeemed every note in specie and says he will advertise in the afternoon papers to keep open until eight o'clock to-night. I have heard, after careful inquiry, of no other stoppages or suspension. The Poughkeepsie Eagle says of the Hudson River Railroad The work of laying down a double track, to extend ultimately throughout the whole length of the road, has been commenced and is vigorously prosecuted on three different sections the first from East Albany, south the secci fre m Tivoli to Hudson, and the third from Fishkill Landing to this place. On the Northern section it is nearly finished as far down as Castleton: between Tivoli and East Camp it will soon be ready for the raile, and also from Fishkill Landing to New-Hamburgh, The Directors have decided to have it all completed from this place to Peekskill, to make a continuous double track to New-York, 88 soon as possible. The different sections of double track will be brought into use as fast as completed. The Saratoga Whig says that the work of the Albany and Eagle Bridge Railroad is in rapid progress along the whole line, and is nearly completed, and will soon be in operation as far north as Waterford, passing through West Troy and Cohoes. The abutments for the bridge over the Hudson River, three miles north of Waterford, will soon be finished and ready for the superstructure, and much of the grading on either side of the river, for several miles, has been finished. It is predicted that this road, when completed to Eagle Bridge, will do an extensive and profitable business. The Boston Journal says Money rules at from 6@7 P cent. for first class Loans, either on call or paper of good stamp. No trouble, however, is experienced in procuring reasonable accommodations the Banks. Stocks are feverish and irregular, particularly in the fancy line. At Philadelphia the isno change in Money. The citizens of Dubuque, Iowa, decided on the 29th of September, by a vote of 429 to 9, to subscribe to one hundred thousand dollars of the Stock of the Southern Wisconsin Railroad. The citizens of the place had previously subscribed fifty thousand dollars to the work. Exports for the week ending Oct. 11: LONDON 900 bbin. Flour, 2,923 do. Naval Stores, 50 do. Beef, 38 do. Pkd.
