The New York Commercial of last evening says —The market exhibits more steadiness than might have been expected trom the tenor | of the foreign news of yesterday. There are no | syMptoms of timid apprehensions arising out of | the crisis at London, a factwhich implies that our financial relations with that centre are no" such as to seriously endanger affairs herein the event of trouble there.

Holders of cotton bilis also ex- bibit some nervousness, and foreign bankers find it necessary, under the outery against American credits raised by London journals, to hold their affairs in a conservative position But, with these exceptions, capitalists look upon the London crisis as comparatively un- interested spectators.
