For Alabama funds there is a moderate demand, but the smail amount pressing on the market. has tended to ameli rate the rate. Mobile to-day is 34} 35, other branches 27 a 28. A Tuscaloosa paper says: The State Bank in this city has commanced a partial resumption of its issues by paying 30 per cent in specie, and the balance in bills of the Brauch Bank at Mobile. We understand they paid the vast amount of $40 on the first day. The Montgomery Branch we learn, is redeeming her issues by checking on New York forty cents to the dollar, the balance in bills of the Mo bile Branch. The Decatur Branch pays 334 per cent in specie, and the balance in bills of the Mobile Branch. The Huntsville Brauch checks on the North at for her own is sues, at GO days, for fifteen per cent premium. We believe the Decatur arrangement has been suspended in consequence of the Bank paying out all her Mobile funds. We have been informed that the Montgomery branch charge 10 per cent premium for the checks on New-York for 40 cents on the dollar of her issues. We are not, however, positive that such is the fact.

That for all business pur poses the notes of the Bank and branches are equal to spe cie, and that the community have entire onfidence in their stability. A cor respondent of the Republican writing from Spring field, probably Mr. Whitesides the Fund Commissioner says that proceedings against the State Back are merely fo: the purpose of determining if it has forfeited its cbarter The proceedings should not affect the value et the Bank currency. Nothing will be done to disturb the regular 2C tion of the Bank. He thinks beyond doubt that the counec tion between the Bank and the State will be dissolved next wister and the stock bonds returned to the State. At Cincinnati, exchange on the East was 4 per cent and little doing There had been decided improvement at Louisville. There was a fine cash business doing. The Banks were discounting freely all good paper. Although Eastern change is not abundant, banks are drawing liberally for their customers at per cent. Out of doors, it per cent. premium. Kentucky 30 year bonds are 75-Kentucky $5 scrip, 75. The Exchange Bank of New-Orleans was recently sold by the Sheriti. At Buffalo, the amount of uncurrent funds offering was very small. The Commercial says The gentlemen who in had in contemplation the establishment of a new Bank this city under the State security system, have upon reflec tion relinquished the design. A hundred thousand dollar capital. the sum proposed, would be entirely inadequate to the wants of our city y-nothing short of half million capi tal judiciously loaned here would answer Should such institution be established prove of the highest utility and command sound and ex tensive circulation. To suci an one, and such only,need the business community look for general accommodation The Savannah Republican has the following judicious remarks: COTTON.- The present crop so far. promises to be the largest ever known in this country and yet with the prospect of a less active demand than heretofore. which must result in the lowest prices ever before current. One evident cause of the decline in price even while the con sumption apparently continues, is the over prodi uction goods, acting upon demand diminished by the distressed condition of many great consuming countries. Manufacturers, therefore. cannot continue their business except they obtain the raw material at or below its present low figure. Economy is theorder of the day, all the world ever, and perhaps the only resource to hich the people of this count try can look for relief, because that depends upon them selves only. Discordant factions prevent the healthy action of Government, in stering the resources of the people, and giving healthy tone to our currency and our credit.Economy and retrenchment must therefore continue until the people are out of debt, and then will our currency be come almost reduced to metal, and the prices of all things stand at corresponding rate But it remains to be seen ho long our people will continue to raise cotton at prices so little when they can turn their ttention so many other branches of production, and by reducing that of cotton enhance the valwhat sent into market. But will not be long before they will perceive the value of home ma ket, well as the foreign one, to which Southern political economistsbave hitherto given such value and importance as to throw the demand from onr own manufacturers out of the question The effect of a reduced demand from the North will be seen here this very season: and as practical experience worth all theory, we shall doubtless see very different feeling on the subject of protecting home industry in pre ference to foreign, in the course of another twelvemonth, through the whole country.
