Relief fir the mfferert at CHarlctton.
Public meetings have been held in the towns
of Wilmington and Fayetteville, for - the pur-

The New York Banks have resolved unan

addressed a circular to Die Country Banks,
notifying them that their bills will not be re

The Boston Courier of the 50th lays 'We

of that dreadful catastrophe:
