 IL has been suggested in the debate ihe Bank propositions. by Col. McCIung, that portion of the bills of exchange which have been purchased by the Decatur and Huntsville Branch Banks, for the pur- pose of meeting part of the interest the State Bonds for ls45, would be protested for pay lnent. This has created considerable excitement, and the statement into the considerations of the legislature upon the question: of what amount of Bank indebtedness shall be collected This sugges- ton by Mir. McClung was accompanied by state- ment his part, of the entire sovency Of the par ties 10 the bills; but owing to the extraordinary pressure of the times consequent upon the unprece- dented low price of our staple commodity there were fears to be apprehended as l,e promptness with which the bills will be met. For the payment of the interest falling due this year, there is hand 238, ,7l0 dollars, and we are dependant for ihe ba- lance, 25S, ,l9S dollars, upon the bills of exchange above referred 10.

 Yesterday afternoon a motion made 10 strike out S35 per cent. It was suggested by the mover McCung, that he made the motion for the purpose of testing the of the House upon the amount n be collected. The House refused to strike 33B per rent; ma, very reasonably conclude that this will be the amount required annually of the Bank debtors.

 The House to-day is again the Bank question, but nothing yet has been done. Some excitement prevailed, and good deal of fdscuss had this morning upon motion by Mr. Jones, of Conecuh, that the Governor be instructed 10 transmit 10 ihe House the secret journal of the joint examining mitee, raised by the legislature of lS42, with refe- renee To Bank frauds-which journal was placed in the hands of the executive by order of that egisla ture. The journal is sealed, and on this account there is a sort of fres-mason charm about it all want to see it, except those who remember it a miser able abortion of attempt to do what could not be done. The journal referred to contains only some fragments of suspicious in relation to certain Bank transactions; but nothing tansible-noihing calcua ted to give any light on any subject. The result of the action to-day has been order it be opened and deposited in the office of the Secretary of State. to be inspected by all and every person.

 John Mccormick has been reelected State Prin- ter by majority of 30 votes over R. A. Ea,on.- Eaton received 13 demOcratic-lle balance whig votes; Mccormick received whig votes.
