_ A:u~:cno'rr:.—-Upon the bill across the river
fronting Main street. in the Borough of Nur-
walk. lived during the Revolution, an English-
man natned VVood, who was supposed to he a
~Tory. .He. had ..a ‘large. flock of geese, which
some American soldiers in the rieighborbootl.
seized one night, and bore off to the American
camp.- Aft_er a feast upon the geese, they took
an old gander, whose age probably saved his
threat from the knife. and putting as much mo-
ney in a bag‘ as they thought the geese worth‘
tied it about his neck, and sat him down nearthc
residence of his master. lo the morning the
owner ofthe geese went out to feed his flock, but
none of them appeared. save the old gander.-
The man was in amazement. but espying the
bag around the gander’s neck. he caught him.
and discovered its contents. The money was all
safe. antl a note which was enclosed, soon con-
vinced him where his geese had fledto. It was
exactly in these words:
“ Johnny Wood your geese were good,
And I live over yonder,
I bought your geese for ——. pence a piece
And paid it [to the gander."
Whether he was satisfied with this explana-
tion. or not, I never heard. VV.

‘PHILADELPHIA, Feb.i8, 1841.
The excitement here is considerably lull-
ed, though as yet there is but little it any
business doing. The course pursued by the
Banks to-day is the same as that of Saturday.
All the Banks pay their $5 bills. and a few
of them their tens. The United States Bank
refuses the notes of all the City Banks in
order to square account with them for refus-
ing hers. W'e have no currency here but
rnarkedchecks and specie. The latter com-
mands a premium of about 5 per cent. U.
S. Bank notes are about 12 per. cent below
par.
The National Gazette sa_vs—-—"The notes
ofthe United States Bank are now sold at
a discount. VVithout touching the general
question of its affairs, we would express our
conviction that the notes of the Bank are
perfectly good for the full amount on the
face of them. 'l‘lie same is true of the notes
of other Philadelphia Binks. and we hope
therefore that useless sacrifices will be avoid-
ed.” '
Bani/c Snspensz'on.—Tbe result of the meet-
ing ofthe officers of the Banks ol Bultiinore
held yesterday morning at 8 o’clock, was
the adoption ofa resolution, by:-in unanimous
vote, to suspend specie payments. .This
course was unavoidable, in view of the gen-
eral suspension which had previously taken
plact: among the Banks of Philadelphia.
On Saturday perhaps upwards of $100,000
in specie were drawn lrotn the Banks of
Baltimore by note. holtlcrs and on drafts;
and yesterday morning a number of brokers
and agents from the e,astwart_l stoo.l ready to
draw coin. had not thedetermination to sus-
pend iat posed to prevent them. The Vii’-
ginia érnks will, without doubt, also sus-
pend.—-Baltimore American.

“ Vile congratulate" the city on the remo-
val of Mr. Morris from the office of Rt-cor
dcr. Honorable and estimable as he may
be in private life, his strong «party predilec-
tions acting upon an excitable teinperariieiit
and an obstiu-rte disposition totally di_sqti:1lify
him for the bench. His positive outrages
upon the constitution and the laws are a mat-
tcr of notoricty; but there are other objec-'
tions against liiui of a negative character, ol
almost equal force. Justice is l:ll)lt‘tl to be
blind. but as pcrsonated by Mr. Morris. she-
is said to lr-ave had only one eye closed, and
it is further allegctl that locofoco offenders
