For ten millions of capital called in by that bank, twenty mil lions of capital, to called, were invest ed in thene. In the place of five and a half millions, about the amount of cir culation jn notea of that bank with drawn, twenty-two millions were push ed out. Then came a suspension of specie payments, . in August and Sept. 1814. As an immediate consequence of this suspension, .thjcircuJarionpf the country, ki the course of fifteen months, increased fifty per cent, or forty-fiir to sixty-eight millions of dol lars; and the fruit of this more uniform currency wat the failure of innumera ble traders, mechanics, and even farm er; of one. hundred and sixty-five banks, with capital amounting to thirty millions of dollars; and a lost to the United States alone, in the negotiation of her loans, and in the receipt of bankrupt paper, to an amount exceed ing fuar millions of dollars!"
