LONDON March l0.-There were symptoms appa
rent today of some revival of the uncasness which
was SO prevalent during the whole Of last week, on
the subject OF commercial credit and particularly
latve TO the large amount of bills from America,
which will fall due in the middle of the month, but
we are inclined TO believe that the provision made IN
lhe beginning OF the month for engagements cf this
description, quite sufficient to cover all, and that
the apprehension referred TO does not rest upon any
substantial grounds.
