Fis9Sir Cove Ousley. the newly appoint

SIR. J.. B. Roberts, the American ira

cessful engagement at Manchester. +

81 Mcssrs. Wilmer & Smiths Times of +
the 31st ult,, in their financial articles, y
say that tie effect of the news from +
america received this week, upon the i
English money market has been very (
~reassuriBg, although the storm has not :
passed over without infiicting disaster. 8
The Borough Bank of Liverpool has n
given way under the pressure, and must y
wind up its affairs. The capital repre-
SCENTS a million of money, but it's sus-
pension has created less surprise than
regret. /
The Western Bank of Scotland, with a
upward of one hundred branches and c
the head Office at Glasgow, has been ii
nearly in as sad a plight. owing princi- I
pally to the position of affairs in Amer j
lea; but the new turn which things 4
have taken has induced aid to be forth e
coming. The deposits IN this bank re- il
present &c, GOO. rar
All apprehension, therefore, of a
drain of gold for the United States has :
because, in the present !
state of exchange, speculative shipments
of specie to America would end in loss, 9
-an6 thus, has ended, for a time at least, a.
the greatest pressure which our money u
market has sustained during the last 4;
ten years. The price Of most articles n
Of produce has been affected by the Il
state of uncertainty duringth the interval, e.
and some little time must elapse before u
the equilibrium is restored. n
The demand for silver to send to the u
East is still considerable, and imports II
of silver from the continent, to be re- +.
placed by gold, have taken place; but s.
drain is small and hardly of notice, n
as comparcd with the great american O
pScscntiment. =
