For the Normal}: Ga:c(lc.
Mn. Pitr.\"rt:rt—You' will please give the
following a place in your useful paper.
It is a well knowi: fact, that the inhabitants
of \Vcstport and its vicinity have made frequent
applications to the Legislature for a Bank for
their accommodation. and the accommodation
ofthe region in the neighborhood, and the appli-
cation has always been opposed by the ncigh
boring Binks, sometimes publicly, and at other
times in a secret, underliand. nngentlemanly
manner. The Banks in the County have gen-
erally exerted all the influence in their power to
prevent any new charter, and to keep and mo-
nopolize the whole ofthe business in the coun-
ty in their hands for their own private interests.
The following remonstrauce made its appear-
ance at the time the last petition was tried,
which was considered by the public very unfair.
The Bank sent her agent to Hartford at the
time the petition was before the Committee,
who prowled about there a number of days, ex-
erting what influence he could, nritil he found
, that the Committee were likely to report in fat-
vor ofthe application. and then handed it in to
_. lay before them, contrary to all rules of Legis-
lature. The positions, conclusions, assertions
anti statements there made are untrue. uiifoitnd-
ed, and was known to be so at the time. The
Committee, after the thing was read to them,
spurned at the idea of having evidence smug-
gled before them as that was undertaken to be.
Notwithstanding what they say about having
fu_nds more than they can use, there were notes
as good as any in the State offered for discount,
whi.:h they refused to do, and said at the time,
"The paper is good: but we have now more
lying fordiscount than we can possibly do;” and
it is presumed they told the truth, as it was as-
certained afterwardsithat about two-thirds of
their capital was lent to the inhabitants ofSouth-
port. And they have frequently had applica-
tions for discotints, but most generally rejected,
not on the ground of the paper not being good.
but for the want of funds. “ They could not do
-it; we should be glad to if we had anyzthing to
do it with.” VVhen the petition was continued
from New H aven to the last session, there ap-
peared an anonymous remonstrance, containing
statements which were untrue, and calculated
to deceive. This they dare not sign, but they
iiitenderl it to exert a most back -handed influ-
ence to defeat the application. It is well known
that Southport is not a very good location for
a Bank, and tht athe Branch is not very lucra-
tive to the mother Bank, and it is also well
known. that without \Vestport their business
would be small.
To the Hon. C/ia.irma.n of the Committee of
the Legislature of the State of Commoti-
--I ‘ cut, on. Banks.-
SIR: The undersigned, Directors and Cash-
ier of the Connecticut Branch Bank at South-
port, in Fairficld County, understanding that
there is a petition now pending before the Le-
gislature (continued from the last session) for a
Bank to be located in Westport. also a petition
now pending for a Bank at Bridgeport, in said
- ,_ County, with a branch at New Milford, in the
‘v
County of Litchfield, and not doubting but that
the hon. Corznmittee would desire all the infor-
mation they could obtain on the subject that the
nature of the case will admit. the undersigned
beg leave to state, that they live within about
four and halfmiles of \Vestport, and are well
acquainted with the Bank accommodations re-
quiredby the people ofthat village and its vi-
cinity, respectfully submit the following facts,
“which may be substaiitially relied upon, viz.
There is four Banks in the County of
Fairfield, chartered‘ capital $750,000
Add one filth for subscription from
school fond, ecclesiastical societies,
privileged, 150.000
u————-:—-
Total,. $900,000
Ofwhich there ispaid on the.capital,.'-$595,000
And from school fuud,.c§'c‘._p'robably
not less than _ t 80.000
'= ' .V -,«..,'i-3675,00
The balance of the capital the ‘stockholders
wouldlike to pay i_n ifit could be used, and will
be called for. as soon, as wanted for individual
discounts—-out of wliich, witlithe issues, large
sums are loaned inand discounted for peoplein
New York. it not being required or called for in
the cotintry, which plainly prove that there is
more Bank capital iiithe Countytlian can be
used,ortban the publicaccommodation requires.
In order to show what amount of Batik accom-’
mbdations are required for the village of \Vest-
port, the merchants, rnanufactnrers. and others
from that place tell us. tltat' they do almost the
whole of their Banking business with the Coun-
ty Branch Bank. one or two exceptions, and the
whole of their discoutils for the year commen-
cing May 1st, 1838, and ending May 1st. 1839
amounts to $55,828-ttrhicliamotintinclndes all
their renewal of notes, and has been $8,255, and
in no case have their discounts been over about
$14,000 in any three months in the year past,
which shows Ibe amount of Bank accommoda
tions they have and do require. There has not
been more than one or two small notes offered
for discount in the year past, from that place.
which has not been done. \Ve understand they
have shown a very large amount of manufiic-
turing business done in that village, and within
a few miles of it, but out of every $10,000 worth
that they show of manufacturetl goods in that
place, not $1000 ever goes or is wanted to go
into a country Bank for discotint. In our opin-
ion (and from experience we judge) large
amounts ofthe goods are sold in New York. and
the notes applied directly in the purchase ofthe
raw matei'ial,'arid nothing called for from the
(country Banks more than what is absolutely re-
quired to pay the workmen and support their
families: so they tell us, when they call for dis-
counts.Westport lias every accomtnodation from
the present Banks they can possibly require,
and every convenience, unless a Bank was
placed (as the "common saying is) at every
man’s door. Their distance from Southporl is
about four and halfmiles, to Bridgeport about
ten miles, to Norwalk about three miles, and to
Stamford about ten miles. There being now
abundance of capital to accommodate all lltcir
wants at Southport and Norwalk. lliereforc the
extentoftheir travel to either place will be but
about four and half miles. The capital of the
Conn. Branch Bank paid in is $80,000. and
the regular steady calls on us for the country
pcople’s use, is not nor ever ltasainounted to
more zhan three-fourths of thecapital, not al
lowing any thing for :1 small circulation; and
we have no hesitation in saying, that the capital
ofthe Connecticut Branch Batik is abundantly
sufficient to supply and do all the discounting
business required from front \Vestport and its
vicinity, and this place and vicinity. \Ve are
not so conversant with the wants of more Bank-
ing capital at Bridgeport, but have frequently
heard the directors ofthe Connecticut Batik say
that they discounted all good paper that was of-
fered, and that the calls on the Bank for dis-
count woultl_not warrant the calling in of the
balance ofthe capital, for it was not wanted for
the country use. All of which is respectfully
submitted. .lr«:rii-:miAii STURGES,

Sivow IN l\1AY.--The Catskill Mountains
Art A/Vabian Steam S/'t.ip.——There is a
great curiosity in New York now, in the
shape ofan Arabian ship, of which we find
the following notice in the N. Y. Courier &
Enquirer‘: .
‘The Arabian ship Sultanec, whose arri-
val we noticed yesterday under our shipping
head, is we learn the property ofthe Irnaun of
Muscat, as well as her cargo. She is a fine
vessel of about 400 tons, built in Bombay of
teakwood, and has a crew of50 Arabs. The
Collector and District Attorney we are told
were all day yesterday engaged in brushing
tip their Arabic, to make out the ship’s pa-
pers. We trust they will find. no cause for
seizure, but that this attempt of the Imaun to
establish a commercial intecourse with the
port of New York will meet with that cor-
dial reception on ottr part which it well mer-
its. V The port from which she comes is at
the entrance ofthe Gulf of Persia.
FoLLowi.~:o IN THE FOOTSTEPS.-AS Martin
Van Buren,is pledged to followinthe footsteps.
ofhis illustrious predecessor, the Sullanee ‘offers
a very favorable opportunity of procuring a pas-
sage to that favorite retreat, of the old General:
“the deserts of Araby.”

peal from the decision ofthe District Court,
in this case, was argued, at New Haven, on
VVednesday last week before the Circuit
Court, (Judges Thompson and Judson) and
this Court have affirmed the decree of the
District Cou rt—pro forma——and the Govern-
ment of the United States, at the instance of
the Spanish Minister, have appealed to the Sn-
preme Court of the United States. The Af-
ricans must therefore remain .in jail, until

HESE tricdicines are indebted for tliciri

in plll‘if_\~Itlg the springs and channels of life, and
enduing then: with renewed tone and vigor. In
many hundred certified cases which have been,
made public, and‘ in a’lr'i‘i'or§t_ every species pf
disease to which the hnr'r'ia"n fr‘ar'iie is lial:le', the
happy effects of Jlloflitfs‘ Lifé -Pilis and Plterijri

nnacquainted' with the liea'uti'ful'ly pl‘ii‘l'osophical
principles upon wliich‘t'iiéy are cou‘r‘p'ot’i'niTed, and
upon w|ii‘clr they consequently act.
The Life Medicines recommend tliemselvos'
in diseases of every form and description. Their’
first operation is to loosen from tl’i’e éodfs of the‘
stoinacl’ra'nd bowels, the various ir’i"ipur'i’ties and
crurlitics cohs'ta“ntly s"ett’li'ng around them, and to
remove the hardened ftcces wliich collect in the

m_ists, who examine the. human bowels after
death: and hence the prejudice of these well‘
informed men against quack medicines’-‘-or’ me’-
dicine prepared and heralded to the public by
ignorant persons. The second effect of the"
Life Medicines is tocleanse the kidneys‘ and the’
bladder, and by this means, the li'vér' and the"
lungs, the‘ healthful action of whicli éntérely de-
pends upon the reg'nla"rity of the urinary organs‘;
