The Philadelphia Peunsv Ivanian says that several of the Banks of that city refuse to receive the notes of the Towanda Bank, the Erie Bank, and one of the Berks County Banks. A meeting of the Stockholder of the Bank of Kentucky ou the Philadelphia Agency, is to be held in that City on the 10th of November. The Book of Bennington's Charter expired on the 1st January last, and the Bank Commissioners have recommended that an application in regard to it be made to the Court of Chancery-probably for the appointment of a Receiver. The Bank Commissioners of Vermont have published a statement of the situation of the Banks of that State.The aggregate circulation is $1,164,000; Deposits and Debts $200,000; Discounts $1,507,000; Specie $93,502; Deposites in Boston and Troy $431,700; other resources $193,500. An injunction has been placed on the Stillwater Canal Bank at Orono. The report of the Bank Commissioners of Maine says that this Bank has been in the hands of Now-York speculators, introduced by Mr. Cyrus Moore. The bills are nearly all in circulation in distant States.The amount of circulation is $:5,820. The resources. consist, first, of $19,816 paper past due. and of little value, principally in executions, and $38,354 due from the NewYork speculators, of which $15,857 was given for stock and $2,490 bills out. There is a deposite of 86500 in the Washington Bank, of this city, to redeem the circulation, but which is supposed to be exhausted. The Bank also owned a dwelling house, but this was destroyed by fire, and the real ostate is worth little or nothing. The value of its bills, of course, depends upon what may be obtained of the New-York speculators.
