 NEw-YoRK, Oct. ?, 184l.

 The feverishness of the money market has some what increased during the week under the combined influences of the movements in regard to Mcleod seizure of Col Crogan the border tue rise in for eign bills and the consequent continued shipments of specie, together with the stoppage of the Commercial Bank of this city. All these events have conspired check any disposition to invest that might have isted the part of either banks or capitalists. An increased pressure is apprehended from the ton of the banks, but this cannot affect the regular business of the city because of late it has been fined to cash basis and the banks have been unable to find suficency ofgood bills for discount. Those at short dates constantly maturing, consequently pressure that quarter is 10 be apprehended. The country banks have however, been more liberal rather less cautious in their movements and have pushed their business depending upon the accommo- dations obtained from their corresponding banks in the city. This has been encouraged by the city banks by of the above mentioned inability to employ their funds in regular way, consequently any traction fall upon those country institutions ,and many of the weaker expected to stop, in the same manner that the city redemptions of all were stopped by the curtament of the city banks in 1889, to protect themselves from the movements of the U. s. Bank at that period. The difficulties arising from political causes may be expected to with the favorable termination of McLeod's trial. That event is however doubtful, the evidence against him is strong and direct, while his chief defence to he to sustain aibi, through the testimony of his kept mistress, Miss Thompson.
