The excitement in commercial circles continued
yesterday being increased by the news from staun-

the suspension of the banks in those places 1t is
supposed that the suspension ia the two first men

apprehension that the banks here would pur-
sue that course The banks here closed firm yes
terday, having done moderate business during the
day without any run being made upon them. They
all refused to take deposit the notes of those
Virginia banks which have suspended They have
determined to continue the payment of specie, and
afford every accommodation in their power to the
merchants. Should their course vary from that
which they have marked out, it will be to afford
more facilities to commercial aud other active il.

NThe Virginians.v

The first number of Sir. Thackeray's new story,
"The virglnians,' will appear on the 1st of No
vsmber. 1t is worthy of note that the old Com
monwealth has engaged the pens of two of the first
of English romance writers, Mr.. G. p. 4. james aud
Mr.. Thackeray. The popular novel of Mrs. Stowe
seems not to have accomplished much towards the
degradation of the South, when find the priuci
pal State of this section chosen by the leading
elsts of Great Britain as the theatre of deeds and
the home of heroes, worthy to grace the pages d
romance. The new work of Mr.. Thackeray will b,
read with much interest, both on account of the
genius of the author, and the subject.
