The Bitw of ovr Financial « vists in Bng- | land The reader will find in another column the latest accounts of the effect produced by the news of cur financial crisis in England and on the con- tineat of Europe generally. The feeling in Eog- | land may be described as partaking more of sur- | prite than of avy other emotion; they didn’t scem | to make it ont, and took for granted that by. “next mail” all would be right again. In France | and Austria, where the condition of the financial world is rottennees itself, our throes and agonies | produced a graver feeling of uneasiness. Morl- bund patients cannot bear the sight of a death bed; the shaky financiers of Paris and Vienna | seem to have trembled in their shoes at the news | that their counterparts bere bad at last been found out, and the rotten allway schemes gone | to the wall. ; Of course it will strike ome as very singular ; that the sbrewd tinanciers of London did not see to | what goal we were tending. Connected as they are with os by every commerciu! and financial tie, and | practised as they are in our financial usages, they ought, one would suppore, to have seen at least as far ahead as ehrewd men did bere. But their blindness can be accounted for. Vor the last year or two, the highest Gaancial authorities of ‘ the United Kingdom have, either from Igoorance or from design, syetematically misled the public with regard to American enterpriss, Of cours we have no means of jndging from this ‘lstance what influences can be brought t bear In this «quarter or in that, and what effects may be pre duced; but it is certain that had the money editor ofthe London Time been as thoroughly a bired } servant of the railway speculators as certain mo- ney editors here are understood to be, he could | not have conducted his paper with more disre gard to the public interest or with grower favor be railways of the United Staten And he gave the keynote te a herd of minor authorities, in and out of the press: all, with one accord, have to for the past twelve months chorused anthems In | praise of the superb management of such rail. ways a the Michigan Southern, and the invalu- able property called the New York and Erie stock. It will naturally take the public some time to recover from the delusion into which there bad guides have plunged it As to the practical effects of the ews from | Lenee, when it arrives in London, » distinction | must be drawn. The bankers who bridge the Atlantic in afinan- cial point of view naturally divide themselves into three classes, First, we have the clas who, from peddling our securities abroad on commis sion, have acquired means enough to take the tick of thelr business, and are in the habit of taking ap whole louns at their own cost, and selling them out in detail to thelr customers | ‘This claes stands apart from all others, and we euppors there can be no doubt bat it will go by the board bodily.

As to the third class of Anglo-American bankers—the class which deals chiefly ia ex- chapge—it is to be presumed that they will rather make than lose money by the crisis. Their opportunities have been great, and the risk emall; we may take for granted that they have reaped a good harvest. It is impossible to cay to what extent the re- vulsion may the trading population of England. Thore are reasons for supposing that it will do far more damage than any conjecture at precent, Coming conjointly with the Indian war and o crisis at Paris and Vienna, it will naturally press with extreme severity on the resources of the empire. A few days will enable us to judge how far the pressure can be borne. Rewxy vor tae Lasonwe Ciasses—Mes. SAGE YRoM THE Mayor.—The Mayor sent meesage to the Common Council, at its session last evening, which document will be found ia the report of the proceedings. The Mayor makes some sensible reflections upon the strait to which the laboring classes of the city will be reduced during the coming winter from want of employ- ment, and directs attention to the vast amount of public work to be done—the improvement of the Central Park, the construction of the new reser- voir, the grading and regulating of streets, the repairing of the docks, &c., &c. Thus it becomes necessary that a certain amount of work should be done, and the hands to do it are ready and idle. The Mayor proposes that o sufficient aum- ber of laborers to carry on these works shall be employed ; that the Corporation shall pay them seventy-five per cent in food and twenty-five per cent in money. The food—tiour, cornmeal and potatoes—to be paid for with funds raised by | loan, secured by stock, bearing seven per cent | interest, and redeemable in fifty years; the men | to be euppliéd with food at the cost price to the | Corporation. They will thus get their supplies | at a discount of fifteen or twenty per cent at | least on the usual ratee, while the public will be saved additional pauper expenses—tor the unemployed will certainly come upon the Alms- oure--and the works will go forward without | immediate additions to the tax list. | Such are the Mayor's views, They seem to us | sensible and feasible. An ordinance embodying , his plan, carefully elaborated, would mect the neceesities of the case ; and if beyond the power | of the Common Council, under the charter, would undoubtedly be ratified by the Legislature- | Ma.
